My family moved over seas and my two older siblings looked after her when they were in university. We should have took her with us, but feared Bermuda would be too tiny for her with it’s 27 by 1 mile at widest point size (we used to live in the woods and would let her run around miles of forest to her delight and our wonder). So she moved to the suburbs in the backyard of a house my siblings lived while attending school. It wasn’t a good neighborhood and my poor Chloe (that was her name), she wasn’t doing too well. She was depressed and just so sad, which is why I guess she allowed herself to have puppies at an older age (she was a very independent dog and would check the male dogs around her. She was close to ten when she became pregnant). Alas, my older sister gave one of her puppies away. Chloe took it hard and got into the habit of running away from home with her pup, I guess, to look for the forest she used to live in and the family who had suddenly disappeared (us away in another country) for that happiness she used to have. Sigh … the neighborhood is located in the suburbs of DC and wasn’t one of the best and people had been stealing dogs. One day she disappeared, but left her remaining pup behind, which was strange. So off my older brother went to look for her as he always did whenever she disappeared. She wasn’t in her usual haunts. So he kept searching, but the constraints of school limited his ability, and my older sister, who could have really cared less, wasn’t into helping out whatsoever. When she didn’t return or show up, we feared she had been stolen since several dogs in the neighborhood had been stolen (her puppy wasn’t touched though, so that theory may be off, but then the pup could have hidden under the house when she was taken)or worse, hit by a car.

Seeing the pics … I kept thinking of her and how it must have been like in her last moments … alone … hungry and without those she loved. :( Losing a loved dog is hard and I keep thinking how wrong we were to not bring her with us. These pics really bring up that guilt.
