FRECKLES


    Freckles was more than a Rat Terrier, she was my precious furry, 
four legged friend, & constant companion for 11years. She was a 
Birthday present for my 40th birthday. She was a ball of white fur with 
black marking on her head. My husband said she had "freckles on her 
nose". She was so tiny, she could fit in your hand, so I made a pouch 
in my clothes, to carry her around with me, until she got bigger. She 
was always with me, no matter where I was. If I was in the kitchen, she 
was there on a rug, if I was watching TV, she was in the chair beside 
me,when I went to bed she was right there beside me. Freckles LOVED to 
ride in the car. She thought the front seat was HERS, and became very 
upset if she had to ride in the back seat. She was also my car alarm. 
If anyone got close to our car, she came alive and let them know to BACK 
OFF!!

    I became ill several years ago and had to go to the hospital for two 
weeks, she was so worried about me and I her. The Dr. even let my 
family bring her to the hospital to see me!!
The week of my 51th birthday she became sick and passed away. I was 
with her when she left this earth and went to heaven. I still miss her 
so much.

I have two other Rat Terriers now, but they will never take Freckles place.
