Roxy

On top of moving, we had to make the a very hard decision about our pug, Roxy. 

The last month has been a very difficult one for Roxy. Courtney ended up having to take Roxy to the E.R. because she was having a very difficult time breathing. She ended up having to spend a couple nights at the hospital and during that time all of us were going together a few times a day to see her. It was so hard for us to see her struggling, that on the last night we went to go see her, we made the decision to put her down. 

But, when we got there to see her the next morning, Roxy was back to being Roxy. She was so excited to see us, wagging her tail and everything, which we hadn't seen her do in days. We were so happy because now we were taking Roxy home with us instead of saying our good byes. 

And then a couple weeks passed and Roxy was getting bad again. She was having a really hard time walking and her breathing was getting bad again. Courtney and I had many conversations about not wanting Roxy to suffer. No animal should suffer through anything just so you still have them there with you. So, in the midst of the movers being at our house packing up all our stuff, we were making the very hard decision to put Roxy down. 

I know putting Roxy down was the best thing for her. I hated seeing her suffer like she was, but it's so hard not having her here with us. I have had my good days, but when I have my bad days, it's hard. I just stare at pictures of her. McKaila misses Roxy terribly too. Every where we go she must take her Roxy stuffed animals with us. She thought she lost one recently and she cried for a couple days. Courtney then, bought a similar one online for her and my mom went out of her way to find her a Roxy too. 

Roxy will forever be in our hearts that's for sure! 

WE LOVE YOU, ROXY!!!

YOU WILL FOREVER BE MISSED!!
