If there are no dogs in Heaven,
then when I die I want to go where they went." -- Unknown

Micke

Mickey is now 4 years old.
He was 9 weeks old when he came to live with me in August of 1992.
I got him from a gal that worked at the hospital and not want to bother with a puppy anymore.
I fell in love at first sight.When I would come home from work he was a bundle of bouncing joy.
I almost did not want another dog, I had a hard time getting over the lost of Sheba my Shepherd, she was only 8 years old when she died..
But I did take Micke and I am so glad I did.Some times there were days. LOL like when I would catch him eating his poop ICK! thank goodness he got over that!
Now I have two Shihtzu's, Geordi came to live with us in June 1997.
he was 8 months old. I love my two boys to bits. Sometimes they fight, mostly they play and keep us laughing...

Micke is turning out to be so very smart. I can tell him a persons name and he will remember them. I pat the person and say their name and then later ask Micke to go see that person and he never fails to know who I mean. he knows his toys by name also. He loves to go camping with us. all tho we bought a Motor Home he did not care for the rattling that goes on in them. or when we get someplace that has thunder. In March of 2000 I got a horse Jesse, Micke would go out and stare at her like he was in love. and his favorite water was the horsey water out of her water trough, he would come to the barn and eat the oaties I might drop.

UPDATE

October 31 2005
Today at 4:pm Mickey went to doggy heaven, he had been sick for three weeks and we and the Vet did all we could.
We came to the hard choice of Putting Micke to sleep..
he was tough right to the end. I will miss that boy every day.
he was my Buddy. My Love.

It does not seem real to me that Micke is gone. it seem like just yesterday that Micke came to live with me. I miss that little human in dog clothes so much. He loved to lick my toes. and it tickled me. had to be in every room I was.. now the house is so empty. my heart is empty. ADDON! I read some info on the net about a drug called "Rimadyl" it seem that it can kill your dog and cause strokes and many other things, The vet we were seening gave us a bottle of Rimadyl for pain as Micke had a eye infection. one pill and a few hours later the end was started. the web site on rmadyl says 1 or 10 doses later can hurt your dog.I wish I would have looked that up sooner. Never again will I give my dog any pill with out checking it out. MY Poor Baby......
