Cookie

Cookie, You were part of our family for 16 1/2 wonderful years. We’re so happy that your sister chose you as a very special addition to our family when she was in the 4th grade. We were lucky to have you by our side all these years loving us as much as we loved you. You always made us smile when we watched your cute little routine each time you drank water then took a long stretch before eating your food and when you were jumping around in the snow like a bunny rabbit and digging quickly in the snow and chasing after snowballs that we threw. You would cheer us up when we were sad just by your presence and I hope we were a comfort to you by holding you when you heard the scary thunder and noisy fireworks. I hope you felt better on those days you weren’t feeling well when we held and comforted you. It made us happy to see you thoroughly enjoy the nanas and apples we surprised you with. There will be a special place in our hearts always for you and we will miss you our adorable little Cookie Monster! I love you Cookie, Love Ma Ma
Thank you Cookie for being a loving member of our family all of these years. I am grateful that you were a part of our lives, and I hope you were happy with the life you had with us. You are a sister to me and a gift in my life, and I’m thankful that God has watched over you. I’m sorry for the pain you had to endure on Earth, and I hope that you are at peace and free. Love, Julia
Dear Cookie, Cook, Cookster, poopy face. Stinky. You were always a loving dog even when getting older. You loved to explore from the first time we saw you wandering around the dining table from where we met you. Even, when you were not doing well you liked to wander around the back yard. I got to spend time with you going to the vet in the last few months. I was happy you liked the boat last summer. I still don’t know how you stood the whole time going to the Villa Roma without an issue.
I was blessed to have you in my life and I will miss you. Love Dad.
Dear Cookie,
Although we couldn’t see each other since I moved last year, I often thought of both you and the rest of the family, hoping that you were doing well as I was trying to adjust to things over here.
Over the years, your presence in the family has always helped us all have greater bonds, especially when we really needed it.
It was always fun being greeted by you (with or without barking) when I came home and I’ll miss having the chance to see you again the next time I’m back.
And although I was probably the most opposed to getting a dog at first, it didn’t take long to appreciate you always coming by to lay together on the couch. Thanks for being part of our family for all these years. I’ll miss you and hope you feel the same. Love Austin
You are the best dog and the best explorer.
Love, Brandon
