Alune was born into our family 19 years ago. She was the runt of the litter, and had some strange behaviors, so that’s why we kept her. The thing is chihuahuas pick their human and hang around with them, Alune was formerly my husband’s dog, however after about 3 maybe 4 she suddenly became mine and mine went to my husband, it was kind of weird but we excepted it and life went on, I mean they both sat with and slept with us . Alune actually became emotionally in tune with me and when I had bad days we went through it together. She would sleep on my head and when ever I had a bad dream she’d wake me up, however as my job became more demanding she started sitting under my chair and whining, bed time was even worse. I quit my job and found one that was less stressful, both our lives went back to close to normal. We moved and shortly after she started spinning in circles and her eyes were spinning until she could finally focus, I took her to the vet thinking she had a stroke, turns out it was a form of vertigo. We paid better attention and life again kind of went back to normal. In December things started getting worse, her appetite slowed down, she became more tired and very clingy , she was the one now having bad dreams and started whining. The Tuesday right before Christmas I am sure she had a stroke and she passed at 12 am Christmas morning. I really miss her snuggles and thumps when she would lay down in bed, I miss her meeting me at the door and sharing my meals. I really miss my little girl.
