On March 8th I had to make one of the hardest decisions. Miss Chippie had to cross the rainbow bridge and hop back into PawPaw's lap. It was the hardest decision for me. I can't explain how hard.
Miss Chippie was originally my Paw Paw's dog. She sat in his lap for endless hours keeping him company and watching the Braves play. He named her after Chipper Jones. We snuck her into the hospital the night before his major open heart surgery that ultimately ended his life on earth. Those two LOVED each other. After Paw Paw passed Chippie and Maw Maw grew closer and kept each other company. A few years later, Maw Maw passed away and that's when Chip came to live at the crazy house known as my house! haha! She went from quiet, old people to lively, loud people! She didn't care, we were hers! We took her all over the place when we traveled(except for China!). Her favorite place was the beach!
In the last few months her health started to decline. We aren't sure exactly how old she was but she was at least 17 years old. She definitely full filled her purpose on earth. It finally got to the point where I talked my husband into taking her to the vet and talked my sister into calling and making the appointment. I couldn't do either even though I was ok with it.
Rest in Peace, Miss Chippie. You are missed.
