My dog hasn't lived with me for two years since my ex-boyfriend's parents were nice enough to take care of him after me and my ex broke up.
I got that dog shortly after my 11th birthday. We got him at an animal shelter and were told he was approximately 1 to 1 and a half year old. That was in July 1989. My mom chose him because he seemed well behaved. But it didn't take long after he got home for him to prove her wrong
He's some sort of terrier mix and he was always very smart but too hyper to focus on anything. I still managed to teach him some tricks.
When I moved out of my parent's house, the dog stayed with them until a few days later they said they didn't want him anymore and were going to have him put down (he was 14 at the time). I said no way and took him to live with me, my then-boyfriend and his family.
He has spent the last two years with my ex-bf's family, being spoiled. He was always very healthy but apparently he has just gone downhill very fast. I wont even get to say goodbye.
At least he lived a long and healthy life (he's around 18 years old now) and he was happy. Now that he's not well anymore, it's just best to let him go.
Here's a recent picture of him:
