I guess I have to post the pic separate.

    I lost my boy Otto two weeks ago to kidney failure, and bleeding in his abdomen. It\'s been hard wrapping my head around why my boy is gone. He seemed happy and healthy one week, and the next week he was dying. He was two and a half months shy of his 13 birthday. I guess, at least my Otto and my girl Ava are together again. She is the black German Shepherd, I lost two years ago. I still have her daughter Addie. She will be 10 in October already. I feel like I\'m slowly losing my family. My youngest is an almost 8 siberian husky named Brinley. He has issues with his thyroid. I put in for a candle for Otto. 🥺💞🐾

    Yes, Ava was Addie’s mom. She is pictured with me in the profile pic. I lit a candle for her about a year ago, under Ava Nika. Otto is also Addie’s dad. They had her and her sister Mira, that lives with my parents, accidentally, shortly after we rescued Ava. We kept them. This is a good family pic that I took. Only one of two. Otto is on the couch and Addie, is to the right of Ava

They keep me going and put a daily smile on my face. Each one has such a character all their own. So sweet and sensitive, especially my husky Brinley.

      Mira and Addie are two of Ava’s (whom I lost a year ago in April. She is the all black one in the picture) daughters. They will be 9 in October. Otto is the father. He is my first shepherd. He will be 12 in November. Brinley is another rescue, just like Ava. He will be approximately 7 in September. I don’t really have any info on him. His Gotcha Day is his birthday. September 19th.

      So sorry for your tremendous loss. Love, prayers and peace in this difficult time.💖🐾🙏
      I lost my four legged daughter Ava a year ago this last April. She was a rescue and my shadow for eight years. Rescued her at three and passed at age 11. She was a sweet, loving sensitive soul. So missed and always loved and remembered.Hold onto all the wonderful memories you have of her for comfort. I had no children, so I understand about her being your child. Mine is that for me also.

        I lost my best friend of 11 years Saturday. We have been fighting diabetes for 17 months. We got diagnosed with this damn disease on March 31, 2021 and it took most of her vision within one month. She started getting sick last week and had to be admitted in the hospital on Friday. Saturday morning the vet called me and told me her bloodwork wasn\'t any better and her kidneys were shutting down. I got to spend a couple hours holding her and telling her how much I loved her. He let me stay with her while he done what I knew had to be done. The only peace I kind find is that the last thing she heard was her Mommy telling her how much she loved her. This was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. She wasn\'t a dog. She was my litle girl. My child. It never mattered to me that she had four legs and a tail and I didn\'t give birth to her. She was my baby as much as my two boys ever were. She slept in the bed with me every single night for 11 years. I haven\'t even been able to sleep in my bed since Thursday night. My apartment is so lonely. She has left a hole in my heart that will never be filled. I don\'t know how to get past this. It is a hurt like nothing I have ever felt before. Chloe will forever be my baby girl.

        This was my Ava Nika. She was born on July 28, 2009. She passed away April 21, 2021. She was a rescue of severe neglect and abuse. She was my shadow for eight years. A loving, sweet, and sensitive soul. She lives on in her daughter\’s Addie and Mira. She was a best friend to talk to, a snack and tv buddy. Once she found out what it was to be loved and how to play and be a dog, she thrived on play time, car rides and walks. She is so missed and loved, but will always be remembered, especially on her birthday. Her love, loyalty, and dedication will never be forgotten. She was and will always be my Princess. Thanks for adding her. This candle means a lot.💖🐾😊
