This is Abbie’s story

Dogma Thursday

This is Abbie’s story. From our Community Voices and feedback on Love Your Pet Day, not all of the animals we’ve loved are still with us, but they do live on.

Abbie was a very special part of my life, she was the first lab that I have ever owned. I was very fortunate to be blessed with her love and faithfulness for 14 1/2 years. I lost her in August, 2008 due to cancer. I did everything that I possibly could do for her until the end.  R.I.P. my dear Abigail Valentine, until we meet again. Gone but not forgotten.
