From Rick:
Our beloved 11.5 year old Lia, a half Yorkie/ half Chihuahua passed on December 27th.
For her size she was larger than life.
She watched movies and tv avidly. Her favorite tv show was Grimm; and she would wait until the ‘monsters’ showed up to bark and shake her pink rubber bone at. She figured out that commercials were a time for her to run to the back door, barking to be let out. She’d bark to get back in, scoop a mouthful of kibble in the kitchen to crunch on the couch; waiting for the next monster.
From the time she was a puppy until days before her passing; Lysol could not be sprayed without a concerted effort to bite the spray can.
If she thought you were sleeping too long, she would run up and down your prone body conducting WW Wrestling slams on your side.
Anyway, she will never be replaced.
But some of her sassy attitude shines through in photos….
Lucas (the Maltese)always played second fiddle to Lia.
Lia will now be exploring Heaven nonstop.

Sorry to here that, it’s never easy. My dog passed in November.
I’m sure you gave her a wonderful life. ❤
RIP

Sorry for your loss.
What a pretty girl.
I’m sorry for your loss, and I bet she’s saving your place until you get there.
I was attached at the heart to my Golden. I cried like a little kid. He traveled all over with me. It is true that some tears never dry.
Concentrate on the years of love and improvement
of your life that LIA gave you.
Rick, I’m sorry for your loss. It sounds like she was a smart little character. Going to be quiet now. 😔
Sorry Rick,she was beautiful.
Ever since I started taking care of my very elderly mother a dozen years ago, her little female terrier mix has become attached to me. She knows my name too as when Mom calls for me and I don’t hear her, the dog barks loudly so I can hear. They’re both very old now, it’s only a matter of time. Every moment is precious.
Sweet little baby. So sorry for your loss. 💕
Just damn. Ya get a dog thinking that, that day will never come. It always does.
It hurts and it’s not fair, but ya do it anyway. Frickin dogs. Love em all.
It’s so sad when our fur babies leave for the next world. Prayers to you and the family.
I lost my little Chihuahua, Mini, not quite a year ago, and your Lia reminds me a lot of her. She was three pounds of pure power, not so much in muscle but in spirit, she had full sized Boxers and Pitties that would kneel before her and bossed her humans around as well.
May the Lord give you the blessed assurance, Rick, that he met your Lia at the Rainbow Bridge, and that she is happily side tackling Him until the time when you lay your own trophies down and go to join them both, and that will be a glad reunion indeed.
God Bless,

She made your life better, which is what a dog is supposed to do. Remember her fondly.
Rest in Peace, Lia. So sorry for your family’s loss, Rick. 🙁
Very sad. We all love our pets and we all know what it’s like when they leave us. Hang in there.
Thank you all for your heartfelt comments. The wife and I still can’t believe that our little boss is gone. I only mentioned a couple of her funny quirks; this dog could have had her own sitcom!
Thanks again for your kind words. It means a lot to us, believe me.
Lastly, thanks Claudia for your kindness.
Sounds like she had quite a personality!
They’re a tough loss because they really are family!
Thanks for sharing her with us!
There’s nothing like the love from and for your dog. I’m sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss, Rick. They really are like children.
@ jpm Just how often does your dog die? It coming back to life must have been scary at first.
Dogs are Gods way of recycling angels…
We can only host them for such a short time.
RIP Lia. Fear not, Rick; Lia, and your other dogs, will be waiting for you at the Bridge.
Lia may you rest in peace 🙏❤️🕊️
Rick so sorry about your loss, pet’s like Lia are one of a kind.
I’m so sorry for your loss. She looks like a real hand full!! RIP pretty lady!
God Bless us all!
