Sasha
Date of Passing: 10/30/2024
Message to Sasha: Sasha, our beautiful papillon gave us 15 wonderful, loving years as a member of our family. Her warm, friendly personality will be missed. We love you Sasha. Rest in peace.
Tell us about Sasha: Sasha was brought into our family by our daughter Kim. We already had a rat terrier named Daphne for two years before Sasha came into our lives. Sasha immediately bonded with Daphne. They often played tug-of-war and often shared the same chair or piece of couch to cuddle together for a nice sleep.
Sasha was very comfortable with humans. Although she barked when strangers came to our door, she quickly warmed up to them once they were inside the house knowing that they meant no harm. Sasha enjoyed chasing Daphne in our yard. She always wanted to be by her side. Sasha was always ready to go for a walk. She enjoyed the outdoors and loved all the smells it had to offer.
The best part about Sasha was her personality. When you looked into Sasha's face and she looked back it was clear she was telling you how much she loved you and how much she appreciated everything you did for her. She always responded to your closeness by giving kisses.
When Daphne passed a little over a year ago you could tell that Sasha was depressed and lonely. She had lost her best friend. We did our best to fill that void by giving Sasha as much love and attention that we could find in our hearts. We did our best for a year and four months until Sasha’s health waned and it was clear the end was near. Sasha’s passing leaves an emptiness in our house. This is the first time in 26 years that we are without a dog in our home. It's amazing how much we were attached to Sasha and how much we miss her now that she is gone.
