Pequenina's been gone now for over a month. I'm ok and I'm not ok. Probably anyone who has gone through a loss will understand what I mean.Here's what I wrote about her back then on June 16th:
Pequenina was born October 1990. The neighbours who found her called her Carpet - but appearances or no, I quickly changed her name to Baruch's love name for me: 'little one'. I promised Pequenina that she would be mine and well taken care of as long as she lived. She promised to stay in my heart as long as I lived. Pequenina hated having her beautiful long blond hair brushed; she loved grapes, chicken and day old cheese sandwiches. When she was young she would run around the park so fast you could barely see her. She put up with 2 babies invading her life, our various moves, her blindness and occasionally being left with her grandparents who would lavish love and lots of grooming on her. Pequenina was a good dog and I'll miss her so much. - Rachel; June 16 2008
Tomorrow I'll be going up to a town near Afula to pick up our new dog. I'll write about that some other day. But today I wanted to talk about Pequenina. Thank-you for listening.
