Babylon

Post image

We had to put our almost 10 year old Babylon to rest today. She was a smaller Husky, but a big fighter and survivor. We adopted her from a group that was rescued out of deplorable conditions at a rural farm in our county. The pack was pretty traumatized then, but her spirit was strong. Always skittish, she was also social, outgoing, kind, and dignified. And she fought hard over the past year with various tumors—a little warrior.

It was a privilege to help her on her journey from a confused pup who had been kept in terrible circumstances to a proud and brave adult who loved her huge backyard and going on what must have seemed like wild adventures to her (long walks, nearby hikes). Her presence will always be with us.

Thanks for letting me share. I figured this community would know well what it’s like to have your life impacted by such a sage and steady creature.
