I never knew how much I\u2019d miss my dog until she was gone. Casey was a beautiful Golden Labrador Retriever, with patches of white here and there and unforgettable eyes.<\/p>\n
She lived a good 13 years, full of antics and games, fun and play. One of the things I\u2019ll remember most was the way she nudged herself right up against me if she wanted to be rubbed, or if she knew I was feeling sad or sick. I still think about how she used to sneak her way up to the front seat of the car, shake uncontrollably during a thunderstorm and roll down our hilly front yard on her back.<\/p>\n
Her favorite treat was peanut butter, and when she was a puppy she used to steal my socks and chew on the bottom of our kitchen chairs.<\/p>\n
And even though she was a Labrador, she was afraid of water (her baths were quite the spectacle!).<\/p>\n
But aside from her fears and unique habits, Casey was a friend. A family member. She was always there. She didn\u2019t care if I yelled or cried or didn\u2019t speak at all. She didn\u2019t care what my hair looked like or what color my nail polish was. She was just there, panting and smiling and giving her full attention to the people she loved.<\/p>\n
We always took good care of her, just like I know you pet lovers out there do for your furry friends. That\u2019s why I decided to do an episode for Spirited Products just for them. Check it out!<\/p>\n
