Over years I have been able to hold my tears from the view of my family and friends, I was unable to this turn.
We found a dog on the street, around the time he was just a puppy. I guess out of sympathy we captured him and did all the procedures to cure him of any ailments that he may have come across as a street puppy. A couple months passed, and he was considered by the vet as a miracle. In the end we named him Peanut, because of his fur color.
I was awakened by my mom, in a panic she told me that Peanut had got hit by a truck.
I ran outside and saw him limping up the stairs to our house coughing blood, I grabbed him and we drove as fast a possible to the advanced vet clinic (the name escapes me.) In my arms he made yelps and howls...just minutes before we got there he made one last howl that changed into a gurgle, Peanut died in my arms...
I was in complete denial, with tears in my eyes and Peanut in my arms I ran inside the clinic demanding that the vet see him...the vet told me he wouldn't have made it even if we had gotten there earlier. I left Peanut there with the vet lifeless, before I left him I asked the vet and family for privacy. I kissed him on the forehead and told him "Sweet Dreams Peanut."
I left the vets office and noticed that I had blood all over my body, the car looked like the Humvee from Black Hawk down to get a pretty good idea. The shirt I wore that day was stained in blood, even when my mom washed it I could still smell the blood and today I can still smell the blood.
Later on, I got a new dog half German Shepard half Alaskan Malamute. She's so hyper it funny, on small occasions me and my mom mistakenly call her Peanut.
Retelling this story made me cry.
