My Little Bae

I remember coming home from Christmas and my mom and Cara started telling me about how they almost bought the cutest black lab for my mom. (If you know my family at all, you would know that we are OBSESSED with black labs! They steal our hearts every time) I convinced my mom to take me there to see her. I just remember walking in, going to her kennel, and right as she looked up at us,we all knew. She was meant to be in our family. Brady, Cara and I bought her right then for my mom for Christmas. She was the first dog that we have ever (or at least that I have ever) bought at an Animal Shelter. It was such a great experience. I suggested naming her Baelee and it just fit. She was seriously the best dog, so loving and obedient. She brought so much joy to our family and especially my mom. She was my mom's best friend and followed my mom everywhere. She was by her side through the good times and the bad. Calli liked to think that Baelee was her dog as well. I felt bad for Bae because Calli would pull on her ears, legs, do steam roller and hit her thinking she was being playful, and Bae would just sit there and look at us like..."Um, please help."

Baelee decided to eat something that ended up getting stuck in her intestines and by the time they figured out what it was it was too late. We had Baelee for about 3 years, but it seems like she was in our family forever. Our hearts our broken and we miss her dearly. Thanks for all the love Bae. We love you.

That is so sad. Poor Baelee. She looks so loving and happy. A dog dying is one of the saddest things.

Whenever I see a black lab....I think of you and your love for them. And Grizz and toothpaste. And him sleeping with us. Love you Karrie
