Well, not a real angel but our our savior came. It was the security man who followed the perpetrator truck.

The guardian shut us down, and he quickly led everyone to his car, and we went back to the studios.

Hopefully she didn't have anything else so the animal health technician gave her her basic vaccine and scheduled her spay surgery.

Choice 1 : The end of this tragic life.

mm

Our cosy little life.

Once I knew that Gemma would get rid of her moths, I was really happy, My boyfriend then helped me to train her, and she became the most wonderful dog anyone could have! She died at 15 years old after spending her life in our little cozy house with me and my boyfriend. I always wished that I gave her the best life possible, and I think that I have actually. Her final days with us was absolutely peaceful. In the very end I looked straight into her eyes and the by way she looked at me, I felt that she was telling me that I could let her go. I cried a lot but even though she was weak, she had the energy the come by my side and lick my tears before they could touch the ground. The next day we went to the veteran clinic and has she slept away, I felt terribly empty and disconsolate. However, I mostly felt like the luckiest person in the world to been able to pass the last 15 years with Gemma.

With him I developed my training abilities and I eventually adopted my second stallion that I named Luvane. Hopefully I had a large field behind my house so everyday I would let them gallop around and free. It was beautiful to watch! A year passed, and I was offered to bring my horses (one at a time) in a hospital for an animal therapy for children, and other patients who wanted. I obviously accepted and it was a success!
