Lucy

Exactly one week after we lost Kate, we had to say goodbye to our precious golden, Lucy. This loss came as a complete shock to us. Sunday morning before we left for church, Lucy fell going down the steps in the garage. That evening we noticed her breathing seemed off and knew we’d need to take her into the vet the next day. When we woke up Monday morning, Lucy’s breathing was very shallow. As we were doing things to get ready, DJ went to check on Lucy and got a huge shock that she had passed away. It was such a shock and we all hated that we did not realize what was going on or we would have been surrounding her with love. But she died peacefully at home and we are thankful we did not have to make any hard decisions. She and Kate are buried side by side in our back yard. Lucy (aka Lucy Goose, Goose or Luce) was the best dog. We could not have asked for a better first dog. She was a therapy dog for the girls when they were scared to sleep alone and she knew just how to comfort them. She loved us as much as we loved her and we all miss her every day.
