Anabelle (2003 - 2005)

Anabelle was a joy of a pup. She was always full of life, love, and friendship. Her eyes were so human-like, you could see straight into her heart. She loved other dogs and the other dogs loved her.

I remember a time I was sitting on the couch enjoying a piece of chocolate. Anabelle got up on the couch and sat next to me. Before my brother could warn me I had a dog nose damn near in my mouth as she lunged for the food. My brother said, “You have to be careful around her.” He was right.

When Drew and Michelle brought Anabelle home she was just a little thing. Her ears were bigger than her entire body. For the first year we would laugh every time she would trip over her own ears.

Anabelle died yesterday in a tragic accident. She finally met a sock she could not eat. She wasn’t nearly 2 years old yet. We will miss you, Anabelle.
