Chi

From the first day I met her Chi and I were bonded with her sharp and beautiful golden eyes that met with mine and we both knew we were going to be soul mates. My first dog I had no idea the kind of relationship you could have. with a dog, she was my loyal and steadfast companion. She is called "Chi" because when we were searching for a name for her, her awesomely chill personality as a puppy that was happy to do whatever so long as it was with us emanated a good "chi"energy and so it was, "Chi Dog".

Chi loved walks, playing with a set of "doggy friends" she met as a puppy at the dog park and making friends with their humans, then as she got older preferring long walks with Mom. She was my best and strictest "personal trainer" for holding me to a consistent daily walk schedule regardless of weather, and for her, the colder and snowier the better with that fur coat of hers :) She was my always dependable co-worker and there's no one who appreciated "remote working" more than Chi since she got Mom home with her every day, all day from that point on. She also enjoyed chilling on the porch with mom on warm summer evenings and going camping with us this past year, and up to the mountains on ski trips to romp in the snow slope side. At home she loved playing with her favorite "baby" (a stuffed sloth) and many evenings you could get her to "sing" by squeaking the squeaker with her :)

She was loyal and protective of her human family "pack" of mommy, daddy and big brother and will be loved and missed by us so much.
