She So Loved Baja


Maggie was one of those Baja dogs who annoyed many by finding her way into pictures of Baja



It was with such broken hearts that last night we had to say good-bye to our 11 year old fur baby. We buried her at sunrise.

It has been a not always smooth journey with Maggie Mae with her two knee surgeries and two years of battling cancer. It all took a toll and suddenly about two weeks ago, she became terribly ill --- her little body was failing her; it was never as strong after her last radiation. The Vet said her end was near, with a failing heart, but she understood our need to hold on to hope. It was hospice care for the last two weeks. After all she gave us, she deserved it.

Maggie was not the dog everyone loved; she had her own personality and was so loyal to us. We loved her more than anyone can imagine. Life will just not be same without her. Damn, we miss her. We are trying to think about all the wonderful memories and what we have learned from her about life.

1. Always bring joy to all activities no matter how small the activity.

2. Give unconditional love to those very few who give it back. And tell them everyday how much you love them

3. Don't be too quick to trust as not all are worthy of trust.

4. Continue to be weary and cautious as there are so many false others

5. Accept those who seek to understand you, warts and all.

6. Don't let that other dog steal your toy! :saint:

DEP little angel. You have left such a hole in our hearts, but you gave us so much. We will continue to cry and continue to miss you forever. While you always told us how much you appreciated that we rescued you from the street, the pleasure was all ours. You were one of a kind

With a huge smile, we will always see you clearing that beach in Bahia Asuncion of all the birds.

Your littlest angel loved you with such loyalty that in my mind's eye I'll always see her by your side.

It gladdens me that her feisty little spirit saw you into your next adventure in life and stayed 'til your new course was securely set.

Fly little angel-girl, for you've earned your wings.

What a beautiful friend you had! I'm so sorry for your loss, but so happy you had the chance to enjoy such friendship. None are so loyal as our furry friends. I share your grief.

I'm sorry for your loss, I know she'll be missed. But now she's at the Rainbow Bridge, playing with the other dogs and out of pain.

Oh Diana....

I am so very, very sorry to hear of Dep's passing. I know only too well the grief you must be experiencing... Those who have experienced the joy, unconditional love and bond we have with our furbabies understand what you are going through! My deepest sympathy in your time of sorrow.

Know that you will be reunited again and yes she is now running free, chasing the birds at the rainbow bridge!

Sad news Diana. I'm sorry for your loss. The house gets way too big without a sweet dog to fill it up.
