My dog Charlie

Charlie was like a brother to me we did everything together.We got him from trade me but he was born in Auckland so he flied down here. I remember getting him from the airport and all the flight staff were surrounding him but i do not blame them he was pretty cute then.He was quit shy at first but he fitted in nicely.As you can see from this picture that before we gave him a trim around his eyes he used to walk into signposts. He was half poodle half golden retriever and the poodle made him not shed which was good.And whenever he saw us holding the lead or attaching it to his collar he would get all exited and spin around in circles and then dad would get him all hipped up and he would growl and that would just make me burst out laughing. And he would always be there for me when i cried,when i was scared and just to have a hug by the fire. He would always make me laugh. he was more than just a friend he was more of a brother and i remember the time Mum, Dad Janine(our student),Leo and i were at Pakawau and he just had so much fun on the beach. As you can imagine i was heart broken when i heard we had to put charlie down due to Peritonitis which is when the stomach splits open and all his acid attacks his body and over a period of time that acid could be destroy anything. so we had to put him down 2 weeks ago to get him out of his misery.
