My brother Snickers

Snickers is very sick and Mom says he has to go over the rainbow bridge real soon. He has a thing called lung cancer and doesn't feel well. He just doesn't feel like eating or playing anymore. That makes the whole family very sad. He got to have a happy meal the other day. I sniffed his french fry breath. Mom wouldn't let him share with me, it was his special snack.

Maybe that's why I came home from college for a little longer. Mom needed me until my little sister comes along real soon. Here's a few pictures of us together. Snickers has endured 14 years of Mom dressing him up and taking pictures. He's had a happy full life. Smooches to you big brother!

Aussie I send lots of love to you and your mom. I know how hard it is to let a sick dog go. Make sure to give her lots of extra snugles. <3 <3 Sara

I'm very late in reading this. I know I have read it before and it just didnt register in my brain.
