Chloeworm

We said goodbye to our girl, Chloe the worm girl Glover, in June and we miss her but are so grateful that we had so much time with her. One day in February, 2003, Brandon & I were going to visit his grandfather & made a pit stop at PetSmart where Chloe picked us out. When she peed all over Brandon's shoes, we knew she was ours. 

She was destructive and intense from the beginning-she destroyed all of my roommates' property, carpet and flooring at multiple apartments,  whined all night, ran away whenever possible just to make us chase her and was overall, crazy. She was perfect. 

My favorite Chloe memories:

1. She literally ran into various neighbors houses at different times when she ran away from me. I had to chase her down and get her out. 

2. She would jump in anyone's car if they opened their door for even a second. 

3. She always, always traveled everywhere with me in my 2 door Honda civic. She loved the rides and thoroughly enjoyed getting my car covered in dog hair. 

4. She ate so many non-food items: crayons, toys, shoes, socks, dryer sheets, light bulbs, her own collar (more than once) at the groomer when they left it to close to her. 

5. She was such a scavenger and would ALWAYS take the punishment in exchange for whatever she could grab and eat. 

6. She was a snuggler and was always in our bed, on the couch or in the driver's seat with me. 

She ate everything. Seriously. 

Chloe with her BFF, Bean. They spent every day together for an entire year when Clare & I lived in the same place. 

Sweet, fluffy girl.

I have hundreds of pictures of us at Christmas. The girl loved a holiday. 

She also had many, many Halloween costumes. 

Our family when it was just the 3 of us. 

I remember the day we brought Gabs home and how nervous I was to tell Chloe. From the beginning, Chloe wore the pants and pretty much manhandled Gabs. Even when Gabbi grew much bigger and more ferocious, Chole still ran the show and would always eat her food, run her off of the couch, etc. They were truly sisters. 

She was always so patient with the boys, even when they were crazy. 

She LOVED the snow. 

More sibling fighting. 

She always stole our bed.

We miss her. 

We sure were lucky to have her for so long.
