Susie called me (I can’t remember the year):
Susie - We got a pug puppy!
Me - pug? Those are ugly and worthless! Ankle biters! Why?! They have big bulgy eyes!
Susie – You’ve got to come see her! She is so cute!
Me – Okay, I’ll be over.
Later, Susie handed me a margarita and a pug puppy. The puppy was no bigger than my glass. And I fell immediately in love with her.
I’ve had the honor of dog sitting for them a few times over the years as well as spending weekends at our cabins.
She was their first child. Being her aunt, she always got away with murder with me, always on my lap. We would give each other loves. I will miss her little snorts, watching her “Pug-a-tona” (Pug Daytona) around and “Puggy-back rides on Barry’s back.
Cosmo has been struggling with pancreatitis and diabetes onset by it for the last couple of months.
Little sweet Cosmo, Susie, Barry and Katie’s pug is gone, I can’t believe it. My heart has a tremendous ache, but always a spot for sweet “Schmo”. She is playing with Griz up in doggie heaven right now, sharing her camel toy with him like she always did.
I’m going to miss Cosmopolitan Martini Horne!

I am so sorry that Cosmo has passed. We have lost 2 beloved fuzzy children in 2007 and I thought my heart would never been the same. My husband and I were up without sleep for 3 days before being able to finally sleep. I ended up having to write a 'good-bye' letter to each of them and we placed their ashes in beautiful urns on our fireplace mantle. It helps but I find myself talking to them at times. God bless you!
Oh, please give Susie, Barry and Katie my sympathy. I know how hard it is to loose a dog. Both my dogs passed away after stuggling with illness, and it's so hard to see them go downhill so fast.
