Callie was rescued by my ex husband, John, from a shelter in Idaho. John works as a helicopter fire fighter and Callie was raised riding in the helicopters. She needed a permanent home and was delivered to me in Texas. She loved to “load up” in the car and go for rides. She always liked to go wading and it was hard to keep her out of the water when we went camping. Her favorite place was in the front yard where she could chase the squirrels. Callie was a one-person girl who loved to sit on my feet, and got jealous when someone else was around. Her favorite person to bark at was our mailman, who became her friend after she gave her treats. She never left my side when I was diagnosed with cancer. When she turned 16 her hips finally gave out and she could no longer walk. It was the hardest thing in my life to let her go. I have cried a million tears, but I did not want her to suffer. Callie is back home with me, her Momma, where she will always be. I love you, my sweet Callie Girl.
