Blackie

Born: July 5, 1986

Died: October 28, 1994

Hi, my name is Blackie and I am a terror (so mum say’s).

I was born on 5th July 1986 ( same date as my human sister Sioux ) and I passed to the spirit world on 28th October 1994. Mum was told by her vet that I would have to be put to sleep by the time I was 6 months old as my hips were deformed. She should take me back to my first mum and get her money back. But my mum nearly hit him, she told him she was going to give me all the love I needed until that time came. Well, when I was 6 months old mum took me to a different vet and he did a little operation me and I could walk much better. From then on I would not let anyone hurt my mum, she loved me and I wanted to show her I loved her too, if we had visitors I would sit in a corner and glower at them, if they moved too quickly towards my mum I was there, right in between them. I passed at the ripe old age of 9 1/2 and it was quick, I had a heart attack. Beckie missed me so mum got Sabre. Boy, you should see him, great big thing he grew into but he loved mum as much as I did.
