There are so many caring pet parents out there who take care of special needs pets. To bring more attention to these joyful animals, and extraordinary people, this is a new feature to my blog. If you care for a special needs pet and would like your pet featured, please email me through my website contact. Send a photo and I will forward the questionnaire for your pet to be featured in an upcoming post.
What is your pets name?
Charlotte
How old is your pet?
She was one month away from 13 on the day she passed away.
Where did you get your pet?
From a local breeder. She was my high school graduation gift. The last words out of the breeder’s mouth were, “None of my dogs have ever had back problems.”
What is your pets physical challenge?
She slipped two disks in her back and lost control of her back legs.
What is your pets favorite thing to do?
She loved to play hide and seek with my dad and go on walks with my mom. Trips to Granny’s were a special treat. She also loved to go to PetSmart. One time, my mom and I took her to pick out a new toy. As we were walking by the guinea pigs she stopped dead in her tracks. “Whoa, what are these,” was the look on her face. Then she looked back at my mom as if to say, “Mom, can I get one?” And my mom replied, “No, Charlotte, you can’t have a guinea pig today.” People all around us laughed.
What is your pets favorite thing to eat?
Whenever my mom would grate cheese, Charlotte would come running. Mom only gave her a tiny bit but she LOVED it.
What do you love most about your pet?
She was my best friend. I could tell her anything.
What has your pet most taught you?
Anything else you’d like to share?
