A TRIBUTE TO VAL.💔💞💕💖

As a lot of my readers would know I live in a particularly nice neighbourhood here on the outskirts of Melbourne. Today I want to write about a special lady called Val.

I befriended Val when I first moved here just under ten years ago and she has become a special lady in my life, and an even more special lady for my dear little cavoodle Lily.

At first when I met Val it didn’t take me long to find out she was a widow, whom seemed to have a sad side to her. I was also quick to discover that Val was a dog lover 💖🐶 who had two little Shitzu crosses that she doted on. Unfortunately these dogs 🐕 became ill and had to be put down about a year before we first went into covid lockdown. Val was sad and very lonely without her loving ❤️ companions, and us neighbours, were sad for Val and really had a lot of empathy for her grief. My little dog 🐕 💙 Lily, just adores Val and gets excited when we pass Val’s house on our daily 🚶‍♀️ walks. Val knows all the dogs in the neighbourhood, and all the dogs and their owners know Val. Val is often seen at her front gate, showing ❤️ love and joy to all the dogs 🐕 that pass her house. She is very well known to all the locals as a kind, gentle dog lover.

Val had always seen a bit sad to me and I always prayed that she would find 🙏 some happiness in life. Well I can tell you she has. Recently Val started to date a man and has fallen head over heels 👠 in love. Val has sold her house and is buying a lovely home with her partner.

It won’t be the same in our neighbourhood with Val gone, and I know she will be greatly missed by both dogs and owners alike. I know Lily will miss her immensely but I am just so happy for Val. Val deserves this good karma in her life. Perhaps all the local little canines wished happiness for Val too, because she is the happiest 💕 I have ever seen her, and after her grief she is just so deserved of this happiness.

I’m quite sure all the neighbourhood dogs 🐕 would agree.
