Kong-Poo

Our family lost one grumpy, furry, all around loved piece yesterday. My sister's Pomeranian, Kong, was hit by a car yesterday evening and did not make it. He will certainly be missed.

I remember the day my parents brought him home and had me carry him out in my jacket to surprise my sister, and the tears rolled. love at first sight. From that point on those two were inseparable. Justina's obsession with her furbaby went as far as declaring she would be getting him cremated to use his ashes for a tattoo should he ever pass. Yes, slight obsession. Justina never was the kind to do things half-hearted. Go big or go home! 

Memories of dressing him up in Halloween costumes and pajamas ran through my head last night. He really loved it. example A:

If I had one too many to drink, and crashed on my sister and her husband's couch, I could count on him to cuddle up with me after digging until the spot was just right.

Kong was nothing short of spoiled rotten. It is true that your pets become a part of your family; I will always refer to kong as "kongpoo, my neph-dog".

He always greeted me at the door and attacked my ankles on the way out. ahhhhh, love in the purest form.

Kong will always be remembered as our grumpy old man, it takes a special little pup to bring 6 adults to tears. So grateful to have known you.

  1. He loved you to pieces. Everyone, who wasn't trying to leave, as well. This means a lot to me woman. I love you so so much. Thank you for being a safe place to fall apart all the time. You are strong and will never know how important you are to me.
