blurbDiamond was my eldest daughter's dog. When she had her baby, Diamond was too much for her to handle along with the baby. I was enlisted to take care of Diamond for a while. Of course I agreed and fell head over heels in love with her. She became a Momma's girl. When my daughter and her husband asked for the return of Diamond, I refused. She was mine! She was so attached to me that there were times when I would have to clean the bathroom with her "in my shirt". That's where she was the happiest.
She loved terrorizing our other dog KC. She's an English Springer Spaniel. Kind and goofy. Diamond would walk by KC and just for the hell of it would bite her on the ankles. KC had about enough of this one day and picked her up by the neck like a dog picks up her puppies and shook her like a rag doll. Did that stop Diamond from doing it again? NOPE!
I rarely called Diamond by her name. I mostly called her "Chuli" and when I really wanted her to get excited I would call out "Chuli Wooley!" in a real high pitched voice. She would "fly" over to me with her little ears flopping up and down and her hair flowing in the wind until she got to me. Then, she would spin around and around in glee until I picked her up where she would then wash my face with kisses. She brought me so much joy and companionship.
This past Saturday, October 18th at 4pm I had to put her down. It was the most difficult decision I've ever had to make. She was my baby girl. She weighed 2 lbs. and stood 6" high, but she thought she was a Great Dane. What she lacked in size she made up for in attitude.
I know that I made the right decision, but it doesn't change how I feel. My heart is heavy and with a great void.
My Chuli Wooley, Momma Loves You and will always miss you. Wait for me at Rainbow Bridge.
about meHi. I was named Diamond by my first Mom. When my first Mom had a baby and could not take care of me, she gave me to her Mom, Marcia, to take care of me for a while. Well, what happened was that my second Mom would not give me back! But that was a-okay with me. I followed my new Mom everywhere and my favorite thing to do was to be lay on my Mom's chest. That was my special couch.
About two months ago I started getting sick. My Mom was very worried about me and took me to the doctor. They poked at me alot and gave me medicine to take at home. It was pretty cool, because Mom would give me the medicine wrapped in lunchmeat! YUMMY! But the medicine didn't work and I was getting very skinny and I lost most of my hair from my back. Finally, on Saturday, October 18th at 4pm, my Mom had to make a very hard choice to have me sent to Rainbow Bridge.
I know that my Mom is very sad and so am I because I had to leave her behind, but someday we'll be together again.

My mommy is sad today. She still misses me a WHOLE lot. Some days are better than others and she is getting better, but when she sees my picture she still cries. It's going to take her some time to get all better. She feels real good about all of you wanting to be my friend and sending her lots of love.

Well, today makes 2 weeks without my little love of my life, Diamond. Each day that passes, the tears are fewer but the void in my heart remains. I will always treasure my time with "Chuli" - my nickname for Diamond. She was always overjoyed to see me. Always dying to be "on top" of me. She was my baby girl. She knew when I was upset or down and she ALWAYS made me feel better. I've got a lock of her hair, pictures and a little dress of hers. What I treasure the most are my memories of her. May God bless you Chuli and someday we'll meet again. Momma loves you!

Chelsea and I know how sad your mom is right now. Our mom had to help both Samantha and Ashley over the bridge last year. We just give her lots and lots of kisses when she is sad. Our prayers are with all of you

The last few hours have been REALLY hard for Mommy, cause you see it's been exactly one week since I went to Rainbow Bridge. Mommy kept busy all day working at a preschool painting and cleaning and stuff just trying to make it through the day pretending that all was okay, but inside she's been very sad. I'm sure she'll be better tomorrow.

Hi Diamond - I'm glad to see you've made so many friends. Me, Jack and Mom think about you a lot. We also think about your Mom and sister Casey and always wonder how they are doing. I'm glad they have so many wonderful memories of you. Mommy misses not seeing you outside and being able to hold you and love you. You're always in our thoughts. Luv you - Guido, Jack, and Karen
