My favorite hang out spot? There was no way to save Indigo and I had to say goodbye to her that day. Kissing her little head for the last time was so hard. The only relief was knowing she wouldn't ever be in pain again. My dad and I took Peaka home and gave her the special care she needed to get better. In time Peaka healed and I was so happy when the big cone that she had had to wear over her head could be taken off. She looked like her cute old puppy-face self again. Indigo was buried on that beautiful island where the happy days of her short life were spent. A month after Indigo died, Costco sent us something in the mail about a canned dog food that had melamine contamination. They said to discontinue use and we would get a refund...Not all the money in the world could fill the hole in my heart Indigo had left! I did some research on the symptoms of dogs who suffered after eating that certain kind of dog food...and Indigo had them all. It is aggravating that if it hadn't have been for a few poisoned spoonfuls of that terrible stuff, Indigo would still be here, and only 6 years old. We bought that canned dog food for Indigo with the purpose of helping regain her weight because she was recovering from parasites, but instead the food killed her. Peaka got a taste too but thank God she was strong enough to not let it take her over like it did Indigo. Peaka helped so much while I was just getting used to Indigo not being there anymore and I can't imagine how much worse it would have been if I had lost Peaka too and hadn't had her soft fur to cry on while I was going through the loss of Indigo. I can look at Indigo's photos now without crying but almost 5 years later, memories of precious ♥ Indigo ♥ are still fresh in my thoughts and I will always treasure them deep in my heart...memories of a little mutt who never wasted a chance to show her love. Thank you so much for reading to the end. My condolences go to all the thousands of owners who lost their wonderful pets due to the melamine contaminated pet food in 2007. Don't ever waste a chance to show your love!!

My favorite treat: soft chewy treats

What I love about my owner: A little puppy named Lady by her dog mom's family (I changed her name to "Indigo" because as a little girl I had always loved that name and said it would by the name of my dog) came into the world on April 15th, 2005. She was the runt of the litter and the only one of her color; all her siblings were black and white. I think that is special, because she added color to my world. She was the most precious puppy there ever was. I loved her with all my heart and I spent so much time with her. She was my very best friend. As she grew up, we both learned a lot. I trained her to be a good girl, and she trained me to be patient. ;) My family and I lived on a beautiful island and Indigo got to run free on it all day. Through the ups and downs of my life, Indigo was always there...at least for the short time she was given to spend here on earth. One morning I woke up to find Indigo downstairs on the floor shaking uncontrollably. We thought maybe, for some strange reason, she had a chill, so we got the house nice and warm and bundled her up in blankets and snuggled with her. But it didn't help...Sometimes she would stop, and we all got our hopes up that she was going to be all better. But she didn't. Christmas day wasn't a jolly one. Indigo had always had so much fun tearing the wrapping paper off her presents, but now she needed help opening them. She didn't care what was in them anyway though. Someone gently pet Indigo and she let out a terrible squeal. It was hurting me so much to see her in such pain. My other dog, Peaka, had just had a life-threatening injury by running into something sharp and cutting her side open. She had a drain tube and tons of external & internal stitches. Something had gone wrong with her healing process. The drain tube wasn't working. The fluids that needed to come out weren't draining. So my dad and I took Peaka back to the vets in my dad's airplane (the only way to get to and from the village we lived in) but this time we brought Indigo too. Peaka was checked in first. I knew there was no guarantee that Peaka could be saved...And Indigo...My world fell apart in those painful moments of wondering if I would go home without both the dogs who were such a big part of my life and made a house home. After Indigo's exam, the vets were so sorry to tell me that Indigo had complete kidney failure and very painful ulcers all throughout inside her body...that is why she cried when touched. (Please read part 2 in "My favorite hang out spot")
Motto If Tears Could Build a Stairway And Memories a Lane I'd Walk right up to Heaven And Bring You Home Again....Rest in peace, my Little Angel Indigo. Every memory of you is a treasure in my heart. I will never stop loving you! ? Thank you Brie & Ty 64321 for my 1,000th vote! Thank you Melian 141414 for my 2,000th vote! Thank you Zoey 145114 for my 3,000th vote!
