Why.

I do not understand.

Harper B for Blessed is 11.5+ years old. Dare I say this?? She is — knock on wood — perfectly healthy.

Yes, she is a bit stiff but that doesn’t stop her — she is happy and well and living her life.

How is it fair that her grand-niece, Margie Moonshadow, had to leave? Why would the Universe spare an old dog — and take one who was just two years old? A life just starting?

I do not understand.

Of course I do not want anything to happen to Harper.

But I did not want Margie to get so sick that her life lacked the quality necessary for her to stay. Margie was supposed to be heart glue for Toby — not shattered her heart more 💔

We do not have answers for why things happen as they do. I won’t pretend that I know or suggest that things happen for a reason.

I don’t know and there is no reason that a two-year-old dog who was so full of life and love needed to leave.

It is just wrong.

And soul shattering.

A miracle was needed.

It was deserved.

And it did not happen.

RIP Margie Moonshadow.
