Ki-Ki My Baby Girl

Ki-Ki was my baby since she was 6 weeks old. We found her at the shelter and I knew I had to have her. She was a Shepherd/Husky and was my best friend and keeper for 11 1/2 years. We had other dogs but Ki-Ki was mine ..... or I should say I was hers.

Ki-Ki (real name Quilla, pronounced Key-la) was absolutely THE best dog ever. She protected me from everything and everyone.

She always spoke to me with her bark/howl when she wanted something. Sometime's when she was outside wanting in. She would bark to come in and I would wave to her. She would growl/howl at me. It was our little game.

Late at night instead of turning lights on to see my way to bed, she would get in front of me and I would grab her tail as she led me to bed. Always slept with me and waited for me to go to bed.

Ki-Ki just passed away last Nov. The last day of November. I will NEVER forget that day that I had to let her go. She had been sick for some time and her stomach swelled up off and on for a few months. Towards the end I knew and she knew it was time.

Saying good-bye to her was the saddest day of my life. I still can't stop crying thinking about her and seeing her face. She just knew.

I loved that dog soooooo much. I will NEVER forget her. She was a part of me and I was a part of her. I feel like a part of me has died. She was my strength.

We have since gotten a new puppy to ease my pain. It still hasn't worked but she keeps me busy. She is a Siberian husky (part Ki-Ki) and we got her at 9 weeks old, now 13 weeks. Her name is Nakita (the ki for Ki-Ki).

She has been an awesome dog to me and I just want her to bring a little of Ki-Ki back to me. She looks like Ki-Ki, sounds like Ki-Ki, and acts a lot like Ki-Ki.

I will forever hold a spot in my heart for Ki-Ki My Baby Girl!! :'(

Thank-you for alowing me to grieve a memorial.
