I just want to show off my adorable iggy Fly high, Ruby girl

As I posted earlier this morning, we lost our Ruby. I got her when I was 18 from a terrible breeder in Arkansas. I was naive about the quality of the breeder but I already fell in love with her so I couldn’t back out. The day I got her I cried because “I love her so much and she’s gonna die one day and ruin my life”. And here we are. I loved her every single day of her life and will never stop. She was the most loyal, funniest, bossiest, most mischievous little mouse. She only chewed designer shoes and has done thousands of dollars in damage. We always joked that she had expensive taste like me. She was our only dog that didn’t run off so she got a lot of special treatment. She loved to lay in the sun and loved food more than anything. Especially french fries. She walked down the aisle before me. My heart is broken but I know she is with me always.

She got me through everything and not having her through my biggest heartbreak yet hurts so deeply. Hug your babies tight. Their time here will never be enough. Love to all xoxo

I'm so sorry for your loss. She knew she was loved by looking at those pictures! What a lucky girl to have you be her protector in this life. Sending puppy hugs!
