Family Of Dogs - Bailey,Little Bit, Rudy
I worked at a grooming shop bathing dogs when this cute little pup came in. Bailey when I first saw her 
She was the cutest little thing I had ever seen. I found out the owner was looking for a home for her because the lady could not care for her and her 8 year old daughter didn’t take care of her. At first, they decided to keep her, the daughter loved her too much. About a month later, the lady called back, asked if i wanted her. I had already adopted another dog from the local shelter.

I was told a large dog and a small dog would not make a good match. Emmy was a Shepherd mix and Bailey was a small Yorkie mix. Well, I decided, I was going to take her anyway. I was so in love with this little pup. I had always wanted a Yorkie and the cost was unfathomable. Her name was Bailey and I thought the name so adorable and perfect, I kept it. The two became best of friends, they were inseparable.

When I took one to the shop, the other one was sad. They did everything together, they chased through the house, Emmy would be chasing Bailey and then, Bailey would be chasing Emmy. It was so fun to watch them play.



Who can say these two were not meant for each other? They thrived on each others’ company. Sad when one was away.

One day my Emmy was outside, I was trying to train her off leash and she darted from me. She usually went for the ducks at the lake, but this time she headed the other way. We were about a foot from our doorway. I don’t know why she ran.

I guess I will never know, I blamed myself. She ran through the neighborhood, we looked for her, called her. We could not find her. The next day, she was found in a field next to a children’s playground. She had been hit by a semi on a busy highway and had run to a grove of trees and expired. My precious Emmy. Gone at 3 years old.My heart was broken and is broken still.

Bailey grieved for her. She saw her leave and waited at the driveway for her to come back. She did this for a long time, she would go to the end of the driveway and wait. It was sad. I tried to tell her Emmy was gone, but how do you make a dog understand that? The next week, I was so lost, I still had Bailey, my love, but my other love was gone. I went back to the shelter and saved another dog.

This one I named Rudy. Bailey didn’t accept him as well as I had hoped. She tolerates him. Other times, she goes over and kisses him. Then came Little Bit.

Bailey once again had a sister to play with. They get along very well and Little Bit plays with Rudy.

All dogs great and small, they get along. I love my dogs so much
