Bella was a beautiful, happy, darling girl. We savored every minute we had with her and even still, she was taken much too soon. She came to us as a puppy and brought such joy and energy to our home. She loved to reach her paw up to hold our hand and snuggled near us at every opportunity. She made us laugh as she intently watched other “puppies on TV” and even cheered with us when we watched sports with a funny high-pitched bark. Bella was our little dairy queen: she loved licking the butter wrapper, cleaning up our ice cream bowls, and have snacks of cheese with us at happy hour. It’s just not fair that we won’t see her sweet pea face again. We ache with grief over her loss and our only consolation is knowing we’ll see her again one day in a happier place. We love you little pumpkin.
