VIDEO: Puppy memories of Ani

Ani was a special puppy to me.  I think she was my favourite puppy of all time.  She was so affectionate.  I recently found this old video of Ani taken on an unknown phone at an unknown time.  Either my old Motorola or the generic Fakeberry I replaced it with.  But that’s Ani the schnauzer.  My special friend.

#384.5: Little Ani

I was so happy when we got little Ani* in 2001. “She’s the best dog ever!” I said, and she really was. My parents have been taking good care of her since I left the family nest. My mom and dad really love that dog.

They had to put her down today. It’s one of those times when the family all saw it the same way, that sometimes these days come. Ani lived a happy little doggie life, constantly tormenting my dad by not being able to decide if she wanted in or out. I got to see her last weekend at Easter and you could tell she was not feeling well, but it was nice to see her one more time.

Ani is chasing birds in doggie heaven now, and I miss my puppy.

I believe in celebrating life with laughter, so here’s my laughter for today.  Thanks, Kids in the Hall.
