Today we gave our Jack Russell a new home. We loved her very much, but she and our cat Felix just couldn't see eye to eye on who was boss. I've cried for hours, even though I know we did the right thing.
Allie is living with a couple about the same age as I am, and they recently lost there girl JR, Sophie, to illness and her brother Harley was lonesome. I've already received pictures of them playing together and having fun. We stayed an hour before Rose and I said good bye.
I didn't know it would be so hard, I didn't know I would be so SAD. I can't fight the tears and I miss her being here to greet me when I get home. She stood on the back of the couch so she could be in the front window, I miss that.
Tonight will be long without her being curled up under the covers in the bend of my legs. OK, I know she is only a dog, but she had become family to me.
Thanks for sharing my life, my stories, my emotions, all of you are dear to me.
I can't "talk" about it know, so words on "paper" is all I can do.
Love you all !!!
Rachel

I'm so so sorry... I knew you were looking for a home for Allie, but didn't know that you found one and given her away already. I know it must be hard. I would have cried too! But just believe that she will be happier with another dog to play with and not have any more fights with Felix. Felix, I'm sure will forgive you now that she can come out and be with you and Rose out in the living room and have the run of the house again.
Sending great big hugs your way, Sistah!
