2001 - 2009
We picked our precious little baby up in a canine Sodom and Gomorrah in Southern Illinois. It was an aweful place and Ellie was so happy to leave. From that point on, she was our baby. Literally! The look the people at the pedicure place gave me when they asked to see my "daughter", who was bundled up like a baby against my chest, and that little hairy face was looking back at them was priceless! She was smuggled in to many a movie, restaurant and store; but she was too precious to be left out in the car! Even though she was our precious little angel, she had quite the temper... If you wanted to give somebody a zerbert, it wasn't going to happen on Ellie's watch. The first deep breath in, in preparation to blow, she started showing teeth... And, the mere mention of "Kristopher" made her become a barking lunatic.
When we were sick, she was sick. When we too tired to get out of bed, so was she. She wasn't afraid bigger dogs... she was way to smart for those big stupid animals and she certainly wasn't going to play with them... after all, she didn't know she was a dog, she just knew she was our baby!
She was a really great dancer and had the smoothest head bob you will ever see. She loved to get dressed in a warm sweater and be held by whoever would offer.
Our family baby, Miss Ellie, passed away yesterday and we will all miss her so much. But, she left us with so many great memories and we were so thankful to have her for the time we did.
We love you Lil' Lala!
