I have some sad news.  My Aunt Blizzard died today.  I’ve mentioned her in my blog before.  She had some nerve damage in her spine that made her back legs and some other parts stop working.  She was in a lot of pain.  But now she’s not.

My Aunt Blizzard

My Aunt Blizzard

Aunt Blizzard was a beautiful white German Shepherd.  She was nine years old.  I put her picture here so you can see her.  I’m sad that I never got to meet her in person.  I’ve heard so much about her.  They tell me she was a good girl—not naughty like Nalla.  She took real good care of Grandma and Grandpa too.  No matter how busy she was, she’d always make time to take Grandpa for a walk when he wanted to go out.  And even if she wasn’t hungry, she always had room for one more of Grandma’s cookies.

She protected them too.  Grandma and Grandpa live in a place where there are wild animals like bears.  Aunt Blizzard would scare them away!  And she slept on the floor by their bedroom door every night to make sure they stayed safe.

Dad says she’s in heaven now with my Uncle Champ and my Cousin Lazarus.  I never met them either, but they’re all there together and waiting for us.  Some day we’ll all go there and then we can run and play and get to know each other.  Until then, we’re all going to miss you Aunt Blizzard.  But we’ll all see you in heaven some day.  Everyone except Nalla.  She’s going to the other place.
