I've been RAOK'd! :D

Cross-posting from art, to be sure that my mystery Arena friend sees this. 

Today, I had a little package in my mailbox.  I opened it up, expecting it to be another square for the community quilt project and BOY was I wrong.

It looks JUST like Abbey!  I was so surprised and touched and it really made my day.  Abbey was my first dog and there were times it felt like she was my only friend in the world.  She was like my sister.  I'm glad that she's not in the state that she had been in the last few months, but I miss her desperately.  She was an excellent dog.

So darn those real names, or I would PM you.  But thank you SO MUCH, Jo Jo.  You absolutely made my day.  I can't wait to set up my tree so I can hang her right in the front.  She's amazing.    I'm smiling and crying and smiling again all at the same time.

And just because she was the cutest dog, have some Abbey spam!

The last time the family was together.  A couple days before we had her put to sleep.

So thank you, Jo Jo, for reminding me of my best friend and making me smile.

This made me cry!

How sweet, what a cute little gift, it looks just like her!

[kaoskat]

That's so sweet! And such a cute ornament!

[ZennaBug]

It was very unexpected and touching. To have someone I haven't ever met take the time to notice my signature, make a tiny Abbey, and send her to me is one of the reasons I love this place. There aren't a lot of places (especially online) with such genuinely thoughtful people.

Beautiful!

[Shenanigans]

That is so sweet! I bet you were truly touched

[Thunderwing]

I think that is the most beautiful and sweet thing I have ever seen. And wow!  Was she ever a tiny puppy!  My great lug of a puppy was 17 pounds at 12 weeks old... And is currently passed out sprawled across the living room floor. *headdesk* Yours looks like a beautiful and friendly little girl. So cute!

Oh, this made me cry! Sorry for your loss, but what a special way to commemorate your furry friend!

That's extremely sweet!

That was a very thoughtful gesture.        I am so very sorry for your loss Zenna.

That is so sweet! I know what you are going through. I lost my little Dixie last month. If you ever need someone to talk to, my inbox is open.

That is so sweet, it brought tears to my eyes. I am sorry for your loss Zenna. She looks like a lovley dog, an boy what a tiny little creature she was as a pup!
