Thanks all for your kindness. It took me a month before I could even post about losing my baby because I was still trying to process everything. I don't have to tell anyone here how hard a situation it is when you have make that decision.
Winkipop is the second Heeler I lost. I never posted about losing Billabong 2 years ago.
I'll always be grateful for the best 15-17 years a human could ever hope for with my girls by my side - through thick and thin. Now when I come home - there's no one waiting for me - and I'm still not used to that. Same as when I leave the house. No one to say goodbye to as I did all those years.
Winkipop came into my life in '05. The very next year we adopted Billabong - so Winkipop had a sister. That lasted until 2020 when Lymphoma took Billabong away. And now they are both reunited in puppy heaven.
Don't ever let anyone tell you it's a bad idea to have more than one dog. Getting Billabong was the best decision of my life!
Thank you again for the love, guys.....hugs and belly rubs to your babies.....
