Oscar
A donation was made in memory of Oscar by Doctors and Staff of the Companion Animal Wellness Center on Dec 23, 2008.
I would first like to start by giving such a huge thanks to Dr. Newnham and the whole staff of Companion Animal Wellness Center. Also, the Washington State University for training such a passionate and caring person as Dr Newnham. Let her example prosper throughout your wonderful program.
My story of my baby Oscar goes back 17 years ago. When my father gave me a stocking that was filled with my little Oscar. I was so surprised cause he did not look real! His beautiful big brown eyes, his cute little nose and of coarse his tongue! Oscar was my baby from the start... He shared every high and low of my life. Not once did he cause me any trouble nor was he any newsense. He was always happy to see me and never left my side. Oscar had a very exciting life and traveled with me everywhere, since he was such a small Shih Tzu I often disguised him as a baby in a blanket. He did not once squirm, bark or whine. He new just what to do... And he loved everybody and everything. I do not think that dog had a mean bone in his little body.... Oscar was in my wedding and was a star, He had funny habits like if I folded anything out like towels or sheets he thought I was putting down a blanket for him and he would instantly lay on it! As I was attempting to get photos of me in my wedding dress and straighten out my train on my wedding dress, Oscar jumped on my wedding gone and instantly thought it was his blanket! Since God did not grant me the gift of any children of my own. Oscar stepped up to that plate and filled those shoes. Everyone of my family members, and friends has such a great story that included my Oscar. When he started to age.... It did not seem to faze him. He still was excited, played with all of his toys and was so full of love everyday. When the doctor told me that Oscar's little heart was giving out I knew it was time, and I could not bare to watch my baby loose quality of life. The biggest part of that my dog, his heart was the very thing that was giving out. I was blessed for 17 years with the sweetest and most kind hearted little creature that was my Oscar. I miss him dearly. I think of him everyday. My house is so different without him here. I hung his stocking cause I just could not imagine not hanging it. I hope someday I can enjoy another dog as much as I did my Oscar.
Thank you reading my story,
