Today our Little Armand goes to a new home. He's been our treasure and our joy and quite a pain. TOday the pain is worse than ever. We are stupid people. Selfish. We saw him and loved him and he was ours for a while, but we never considered he would be lonely. When we see him with children we know it is the right thing for him to have an active family. A stay-at-home dad and three kids. BUt I feel like I am giving away my child. Hubby left this morning with his eyes all red and swollen because we have been up since 5 just to spend time with Armand. Why haven't we been doing this all along? Get up just to be with him, take him to the dog park EVERY day instead of weekends?
In his time with us he has been loved, for sure. He has his place on his pillow between us, his toys, his snackies, his walkies, his ridies. He loves peanut butter. But most of all he loves to run. He can chase a ball forever, but we have never tired him out. He's never snapped at anyone, he's never taken anything away from the cat. He's a good dog. He went on our honeymoon with us. He's everywhere in our lives but we are not in his enough. I have his baby teeth and those will be ours. I'm keeping his stuffed referee doll, but it will be a long time before I will be able to look at it again...............................
