My Princess, Angel
I am living with my home stay family since I came here almost seven months ago. When I arrived at my home, they introduced me to many pets, in fact, a big dog, Kimba, a small dog, Angel, a cat Hana, the other cat, Franco, and a bird, Bravo. My family and I like living with animals, but especially, we really love Angel because she was cute and smart. However, in the morning this month of October 16, two strange big German shepherds were in out backyard and at the same time, we let our dogs out to there, but we didn’t notice about big dogs. The reason we recognized these dogs that my home stay sister, Erin, woke up because of the strange bark, and she went out to the backyard. After that, she found Angel was really hurt; moreover, of course, we were confused and paniced. My host mother, Dawn, and Erin brought Angel to the hospital immediately, and she was operated. She was almost died on Thursday and Friday, but she was fine on Saturday and Sunday. The woman from the animal control said that the big dog’s owner was our neighbor, but he told a lie about the event. He said that his dogs were in hid house at the same time, but Angel were in his house but Angel came to his home, and that was why the dogs bit her. On October 19, we went to see Angel to the hospital which is near San Diego; also, at the time, she was O.K. I think she could notice we went there to see her. She sometimes open her eyes, and sometimes tried to give a kiss to us. We were glad to see that she was getting better. However, Monday afternoon. Unfortunately, she died. Dawn, Erin, and I cried so much, and it was hard to understand firm the sky. We still love Angel. You are our princess.

Hi Helen,
I am so sorry to learn about the loss of your homestay family member. Of course, as you know from here as well as in countries around the world, animals are such a part of one's family that the loss is tremendous when it happens. I am sad to know that it should or would not have happened if the neighbor's dogs had been in their proper place. I hope that you and your homestay family can overcome such a loss peacefully. Take care.
DON'T FORGET!!!

Your blog is very sad and so bad. I am sorry about what happened. Seeing your blog title,"My Princess Angel", I guessed that it was a movie title;however,my guess was wrong. Also, the content was more shocking than a story I thought. Although I like dogs, I do not want to raise a dog because some day the dog will die like human beings. Since I raised a dog seventeen years ago, now that is nothing. My puppy was called Nicky, which was a kind of Yorkshir Terrier.However, my dog died a natural death even though my dog became thin. Because my dog was so demented that he could not even recognize his owner. At that time, my mother was very sad, and my mother said, " I will never raise a dog." Reading your blog, I remembered that it was the time my dog died. Again, I am sorry about what happened.
