Rocky was a good dog. In her pastime she loved to spin in circles and her favorite food was chicken. If she didn't finish her food she would cover it up with the paper she found. eulogy:
Rocky was a shy baby. From the moment we brought her home for the first time she became such a bright presence, hopping around happily like a little bunny. But we knew from the very beginning that she was going to be as strong as a rock. She was tough and sassy, but sweet and loving when it came to her family. She was our little mini-protecter. She wasn't afraid to show people she was about that life, being that she was raised like a real New Yorker.
Rocky was the cutest, fiercest, and silliest little thing you could ever imagine. From her cartoon-like walk, her silly faces, and her clumsy demeanor, Rocky always made us laugh and smile every single day. Her big, cute eyes, like little boba pearls and her little tail that wagged when she was happy was such an adorable sight, people always thought she was a puppy.
Through the years Rocky continued to become a gentle and friendly little old lady as we got to explore more of the world together. She was still a tough girl up to the very end. She fought and she gave it her all and now she is resting peacefully as she very much deserves.
We love you, Rocky. We will never forget you. Thank you for everything.
