“My huband was a very thoughtful and giving soul, whatever I wanted I got but there’s one thing that he would never let me have because of his allergies…a little teacup Yorkie! Now I know Yorkies are allergy free so I knew there was more to it than met the eye. Then one day (when I was critically ill) he asked me if I wanted to go check out this little dog he found in the newspaper one morning.
“Someone selling a Yorkie, would you like to go take a look?”
I was indeed ecstatic so we went to look at this darling little Yorkie that they called ‘Tiny’ and she melted my heart in an instant! He asked if I’d like to have her as I squealed YESSSS! We took her home and I renamed her. You will be named Mooshu I told her…that was the name that I had picked out for the Yorkie I would maybe buy for myself one day.
The first thing he made me do was have her spayed and a few weeks later he left me for another woman. I guess the dog was to fill the void in my heart and boy did she ever! She became the LOVE of my LIFE. As my world collapsed and the rug felt like it was just pulled from under my feet – he left me. Confused, sick and alone I became devastated and until this very day I cannot believe he could have done this to me BUT, the love that I cannot seem to find from him anymore had been suddenly taken over by this little dog who literally “saved my life!”
Mooshu had become my new mentor, my new best friend, my confidant, and the love of my life. She taught how to love again. She gave me faith and hope and trust and compassion. She gave me “loyalty” the greatest gift of all! I’ve never been so loved by something so sweet and small. My Moo is the best present he had ever given me and he was quite a giving man to say the least. Material things, cars, jewelry, furs, antiques, clothes – you name it I got it but it seems nothing came “with love.” Then one day he buys me this little puff of fur and my whole life completely changed. I learned the true value of life, the true value of love and the TRUE value of a dollar. It’s not what you pay for in this world it’s what you get out of it that teaches you the most valuable lessons!
Mooshu is the light of my life today. I’m not sure what I’m going to do without her when she goes because I haven’t learned to trust men since then but I do trust that God had a purpose for me to have this little creature that my husband would rather have lived without. God wanted me to know that I could find loyalty in something and a love that no man can compare to. Thank you my darling husband for being such a great giver of hope! I wish you the best too! Sincerely, thanks for all the treasured memories! Husbands: A dime a dozen. Teacup Yorkies: PRICELESS!

Hi Cindy,
I’ve had a similur expierience. Only my kitty saved my life after having my husband arrested and leaving him after a 25 year marriage. My kitty is now the light in my life and keeps me here. I might have taken myself out if I didn’t have her to care for. You are so right that husbands are a dime a dozen but the unconditional love my kitty, Cupcake, gives me……..nothing can compare, not even a husband!!
I lost my husband at the beginning of this year. January 12th in a fatal car accident. What a wonderful man he was. I would give anything to have him back but unfortunately that’s not happening. I just thank god for the eight wonderful years that he allowed him in my life. To all those that have lost loved ones, God bless,keep the faith and know that God has your back!
you are so right Jill. I found that when God takes something from you he’s not punishing us, he’s getting ready to bless us with something greater than before.
I lost my husband two years ago he was so wonderful to me we lived, loved and laughed and I miss him with all my heart. If it hadn’t been for my two cat’s I think I couldn’t have stood the night’s here alone. The day’s you can get out and excape the pain for a little while but when I came home it would hit me so hard. I am thankful for my little furry freinds. They some how know when you really need them. The love that they give must be close to the love that our lost ones must have there. So from here to there God Bless us all. And yes we are so blessed by our little pets.
beautiful story yorky was a life saver! you will find someone in the future, hang in there. I started a new life after illness took my husband.and Iam very happy. god bless you.

Cindy,
What a lovely story. Please be assured that loving your little Mooshu and learning about love from her has prepared you to find a loving relationship in the future.
Amazing what we can learn from our little, loving pets and please never doubt they do prepare us to move forward.
Best of luck to you,
