Hello everyone! Today I bring you an article dedicated to my beautiful doggy Doggy, a special being of light for me. This time it is a personal article and in it I am opening a lot of myself. It is an opportunity to be transparent, to be human.
I will start talking about my little Doggy. The first male puppy I had and who was part of the first member of the family between my husband and me. Doggy came into our lives when on a visit to my mother-in-law's field, we found him playing and running up and down. I loved him from the moment I saw him and told my partner to adopt him. So, a Doggy that at first appeared to be calm, became the Tazmania of the family. Here we learned how to take care of him and what to do so that he can tell to relieve himself, know where to eat, what time to play, etc. Every morning, at 6:30/7:00, Doggy would start howling and try to wake us up to go for a walk, with his head looking through the sheets and almost talking to us to come out. I loved the fact that he looked like a big boy. When he wanted to be cuddled, walked, eaten, played with or slept with, he would make these crazy funny faces.
ยกHola a todos! El dรญa de hoy les traigo un artรญculo dedicado a mi hermoso perrito Doggy, un ser de luz especial para mรญ. Esta vez es un artรญculo personal y que en รฉl estoy abriendo mucho de mi. Es una oportunidad para ser transparentes, para ser humanos.
Empezarรฉ hablando sobre mi pequeรฑo Doggy. El primer perrito macho que tuve y que fue parte del primer miembro de la familia entre mi esposo y yo. Doggy llegรณ a nuestras vidas cuando en una visita al campo de mi suegra, lo encontramos jugando y corriendo de arriba ha abajo. Lo ame desde que lo vรญ y le dije a mi pareja para adoptarlo. Asรญ, un Doggy que en un principio aparentaba ser tranquilo, se convirtiรณ en el Tazmania de la familia. Aquรญ aprendimos sobre como cuidarlo y que hacer para que pueda avisar para hacer sus necesidades, que sepa su lugar para comer, la hora de jugar, etc. Todas las maรฑanas, a las 6:30/7:00, Doggy empezaba ha aullar y nos buscaba despertar para ir a pasear, con su cabeza buscaba entre las sรกbanas y casi nos hablaba para que saliรฉramos. Me encantaba el hecho de que parecรญa un niรฑo grande. Cuando querรญa que le hicieras cariรฑo, pasear, comer, jugar o dormir hacia esas caras locas y divertidas.
I remember a particularly memorable moment between Doggy and me. In the apartment in Puerto Ordaz, which is where I lived with my partner, there are two bedrooms, the master bedroom and a small one. We never used the other one because there was no reason to. However, that day I felt the need to go to that room and lay down on a single bed that was there. The room was so cool, so serene, all covered in white; white paint, white sheets and white curtains. Doggy came into the room and lay down next to me, next to his mom. He played for a while barking at the window and then with me until he fell asleep. I remember thinking that right at that moment, next to him, I was the happiest person in the world and how I wished it would last forever. It was just me and him, nothing else mattered. May the world fall down... Then came my partner and Doggy running out to see him. He loved us and he loved us.
Our life with Doggy was beautiful, he was a very spoiled, funny and very healthy dog. Sadly he died almost 2 years ago, on May 5th. We left him in the care of a friend of my partner since he and I were locked up in Valencia because of the quarantine event. One day he took him for a walk without a leash and when they were about to cross the avenue, a driver was coming at full speed and Doggy stopped. The guy killed him on the spot. He killed him cruelly. When he called my partner, Payo, he was pale and looked very bewildered. He didn't know what was happening. I was in my hammock when he came over to tell me what had happened. I panicked and we began to realize that our Doggy, our baby, had been taken from us. It's still something I have a hard time talking about without feeling like crying. If only the person who ran him over knew how beautiful Doggy was, that he had thought for a moment that his action would be devastating.... So many things. I don't think I will ever get over his death, it was terrible.
Recuerdo un momento especialmente memorable entre Doggy y yo. En el apartamento en Puerto Ordaz, que es donde yo vivรญa con mi pareja, hay dos habitaciones, la principal y una pequeรฑa. Nunca utilizamos la otra porque no habรญa motivo. Sin embargo ese dรญa sentรญ la necesidad de ir a ese cuarto y acostarme en una cama individual que habรญa. El cuarto estaba tan fresco, tan sereno, todo cubierto de blanco; pintura blanca, sรกbanas blancas y cortinas blancas. Doggy entro al cuarto y se acostรณ a mi lado, al lado de su mamรก. Jugo un rato ladrando a la ventana y luego conmigo hasta que se durmiรณ. Recuerdo haber pensado que justo en ese momento, al lado de รฉl, era la persona mรกs feliz del mundo y como deseaba que durara para siempre. Solo estรกbamos รฉl y yo, nada mรกs importaba. Que se cayera el mundo... Luego llegรณ mi pareja y Doggy saliendo corriendo para verlo. Nos amaba y nos amaba.
Nuestra vida con Doggy fue hermosa, era un perro muy consentido, divertido y muy sano. Lamentablemente muriรณ ya hace casi 2 aรฑos, un 5 de Mayo. Lo dejamos al cuidado de un amigo de mi pareja ya que รฉl y yo quedamos encerrados en Valencia por el suceso de la cuarentena. Un dรญa รฉl lo sacรณ a pasear sin correa y cuando iban a cruzar la avenida, un conductor venรญa a toda velocidad y Doggy se paralizรณ. El tipo lo mato en el acto. Lo mato cruelmente. Cuando รฉl llamรณ a mi pareja, Payo, estaba pรกlido y se veรญa muy desconcertado. No sabรญa que sucedรญa. Estaba en mi hamaca cuando se acercรณ para decirme lo que habรญa sucedido. Entre en pรกnico y empezamos a darnos cuenta de que nos habรญan arrebatado a nuestro Doggy, nuestro bebรฉ. Todavรญa es algo de lo que me cuesta hablar sin sentir ganas de llorar. Si tan solo la persona que lo atropello supiera lo hermoso que era Doggy, que fuera pensado por un momento en que su acciรณn serรญa devastadora... Tantas cosas. No creo poder superar nunca su muerte, fue terrible.
However, the good news is that, at the same time of Doggy's death, my dog Brandy became pregnant and gave birth to seven puppies. I loved them all, they were my little babies that I wanted to protect with my life. It was a new opportunity to love. My partner one day says to me 'That little brown one over there, that's Doggy'. My heart was filled. He kept telling me that Doggy would never die, that he would come back to us, that he would be reincarnated. I'm not a believer but, just the thought of Doggy coming back made me wish for that with all my heart. Today, that little brown dog, now also called Doggy Fox Joaquin, seems to be the image of our old baby. He is noble, playful, funny and very tender. He makes the same faces, howls for affection.
Regardless of whether or not Doggy Fox is the reincarnation of our Doggy, I love him immensely. I want to love him for who he is and not what I aspire to. To let him be who he is and let life tell me if that's who he is or not. That doesn't matter anymore. I just know that Doggy will always be my beloved dog, my family, my heart and that now other doggies share that same love. Let Doggy know that his family will never forget and that his other canine members are great dogs. After death comes life.
With nothing more to say, I bid you farewell. I hope this chapter of my life serves to get to know me a little better. Personally. Our pets are our family, we owe them respect, love, loyalty and responsibility. I hope you have a beautiful life with your pets and that like me you can heal those wounds that are the result of such painful losses as death. I send you a big hug, thank you for reading this, much love.
Sin embargo, la buena noticia es que, en el mismo tiempo de la muerte de Doggy, mi perrita Brandy quedรณ embarazada y diรณ a luz a siete perritos. Los ame a todos, eran mis pequeรฑos bebรฉs que deseaba proteger con mi vida. Era una nueva oportunidad para amar. Mi pareja un dรญa me dice 'Ese marroncito de allรญ, ese es Doggy'. Se me llenรณ mi corazรณn. รl me decรญa constantemente que Doggy nunca morรญria que volverรญa a nosotros, que reencarnaria. Yo no soy creyente pero, el solo hecho de pensar en que Doggy estaba de vuelta me hizo desear eso con toda mi alma. Hoy en dรญa, ese perrito marrรณn, ahora llamado tambiรฉn, Doggy Fox Joaquรญn, parece ser la imagen de nuestro antiguo bebรฉ. Es noble, juguetรณn, divertido y muy tierno. Hace las mismas caras, aulla para que le hagan cariรฑo.
Independientemente de si Doggy Fox es o no la reencarnaciรณn de nuestro Doggy, lo amo inmensamente. Quiero quererlo por lo que es y no lo que aspiro. Dejar que sea quien es y que la vida me diga si es asรญ o no. Eso ya no importa. Solo sรฉ que Doggy siempre serรก mi perro amado, mi familia, mi corazรณn y que ahora otros perritos comparten ese mismo amor. Que sepa Doggy que su familia nunca olvidarรก y que sus demรกs miembros caninos son unos grandiosos perros. Despuรฉs de la muerte viene la vida.
Sin mรกs que decir, me despido. Espero que este capรญtulo de mi vida sirva para que me conozcan un poco mรกs. Personalmente. Nuestras mascotas son nuestra familia, le debemos respeto, amor, lealtad y responsabilidad. Espero que tengan una hermosa vida junto a los suyos y que como yo puedan sanar esas heridas que son a causa de perdidas tan dolorosas como la muerte. Les mando un fuerte abrazo, gracias por leer esto, mucho amor.
This is Doggy Fox, My new baby/Este es Doggy Fox, mi nuevo bebรฉ.
Thank you to life for letting me love each of these puppies again/Gracias a la vida por dejarme amar de nuevo.
