Chelsea

Chelsea was a rescue Bedlington terrier that we got for my mom. Chelsea came from Georgia and we called her our little Georgia Peach. She was a wonderful dog that had so much love to share with all. She was well behaved and as sweet as she could be. She minded well and everyone just fell in love with her. We only had Chelsea with us for about a week because after my husband drove down to pick her up and I got her home, my mom knew that if she didn't hurry up and come and get her that I would never let her go. And she was so right about that. Chelsea just warmed her way into our hearts. She was so trusting of everyone and you could tell by her actions. Chelsea was not with us long enough because she had copper toxicosis. This is a liver disease in which copper stores in the liver and it causes an early death. Chelsea could not have asked for a better mom than my mom. She cared for her, gave Chelsea her medicine and Chelsea lived to be almost 11. Without the love and care that she received from my mom, she never would have lived that long. Her loss was felt by all of us, but especially by mom. Chelsea was her little girl and brought her so much joy and happiness. This is the second Bedlington that touched my mom's heart in that special way. And they will both always be in her heart.
