Dennie is a miniature dachshund who is 17 years and 8 months. Chart says she is about 90 in human years. She cannot see more than a couple feet and has no hearing. Cannot eat now without her legs going out from under her. Cannot keep any food down. Wife wanted to have the talk a month ago. I ignored it but it’s more than time.
What a great family member she has been. Grew up with my kids and slept in somebody’s bed every night until two years ago. Never gave us any trouble and followed me everywhere. I was the provider all these years. Feeding, bathing, and playing.
Made a casket yesterday out of pine. Sealed and painted the box. Kids wanted to cremate her but she grew up here and she will rest here. Got a tractor to dig me a hole in this cement like dirt. Just waiting for my daughter to be able to be here in the morning when the vet comes to put her to sleep at 9:00am. Gonna miss my girl.
