We Lost a Neighbor Today

“Only” a dog, but still sad news. Here’s the email my wife received from our neighbor today:

Hi Rebecca,

I just wanted to let you know that Yma died this morning. She was attacked by two coyotes on our back patio. Yma died with all of us holding her and loving her. Please say a prayer for our special friend. She is whole and in peace now. Please be very careful with your dogs outside right now. These coyotes went right up to our back door to get her. Thanks for loving our quirky chihuahua friend.

Sarah



If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, then you might remember my entry from August 7, where I wrote about Yma—although I spelled it Ima in my blog.
Yma was a character, and we’ll miss her around the neighborhood. We’ll even miss when she drove our dogs crazy by coming over to do her business in our front yard.

I’m sure she’s gone wherever all good dogs go.
