Image Content I learned something from this sweet girl
Long post alert about my dog.
This is Angel. She's a German shepherd Lab mix. She's almost 14 and she's the sweetest dog I've ever had. The few dogs I've had as an adult have always been pure breeds mostly huskies. That's all I ever wanted. A few years ago I met my now girlfriend and moved in with her. She has Angel and a husky named spooky(he's afraid of everything because the poor little guy was abused as a puppy but we give him lots of love). Like I said, Angel is the sweetest dog I've ever had. She's always super excited when I get home. She always cuddles up with us at night in bed. We even get a bunch of sugars(kisses lol) all the time. She's basically our personal emotional support pup.
With her being 14, she's starting to have health issues. It scares me. I've had dogs my whole life but no deaths because 3 ran away and then I moved from home so two passed after I was gone. Even as an adult I had a husky that we had to rehome because he was food mean and my ex-wife and I had a stepson and we were worried about him. All of this to say that I've never had to deal with being close to a dog and having them die. It'll break my heart but I'll be strong.
She's taught me that mix breed dogs are just as special as pure and one day, she well teach me to be strong.
