Description

The story of our Princess
copyright 2013 by Joni M. McPherson

It was a dark and stormy night....

My husband was working late at a power plant at the end of a long and lonely road. One of his coworkers told him that he saw someone drop off a dog at the road gate, then leave. When this coworker approached the dog, it bristled and growled, so he decided to leave it alone. Later my husband left to return home, and there at the road gate, huddled in the lee of a trash can, soaking wet and shivering, was a black dog. It appeared to be a half grown pup. My husband couldn't leave her there like that so he picked her up and put her in the passenger side of his truck. She offered no resistance, just sat there shivering.

When he showed up at our door, with this wet, black dog in his arms, I was upset. We already had a dog, we didn't need another one. He promised me it was just until we could find her a home.

Keesha, our other dog, fell in love with the pup and the two became fast friends. We couldn't bear to separate them, so we name the new dog princess, and kept her. in 2011, Princess was old and seemed to be in constant pain. she could barely walk, but whenever my husband went out into the yard with her, she followed him everywhere, step by painful step. She was totally deaf, nearly blind, but loyal to the end, which came in December of 2011. We don't know how old she was, but she was part of our life for 21 years.

We will love her forever
