The End of a Friendship

After over fifteen years of friendship, my Australian Shepard, Stella, had to be put down. It was not like it was unexpected because of her age and heath issues, but no matter how well one prepares for it, it still hurts. At the beginning of the summer, she was having some health issues that started worrying us. Once I got home, it was like magic and she was back to being her normal, healthy self. I told her to make it threw the summer until I leave for college. It was like she understood me because over these last few months, she acted like the puppy I knew over a decade ago. I got to see her at her best before I left for college and I think she knew that.


The strange part of all of this though is she has a twin sister, Roxy, who was the beta of the two. Stella protected her and always made sure she was safe. Roxy used to freak out when we would take Stella in to our bathroom and wash her. So I can not image what she is like right now without her sister.

Regardless, Stella has forever changed my life for the better. She was there for me for some of the best times and even worst times of life. I know I will always remember her.

Until Next Time,
Matt
