In Memory Of: Cristo
Owner(s): Kathy Townsend
Veterinarian: Dr. Loren Hellerich of North Creek Animal Hospital
I received my first pitbull puppy for Christmas and wanted to name him something related to Christmas. I came up with his name, Cristo. I watched him grow and he became a beautiful dog. He was very playful. He loved for us to chase him while he had a ball or a stick in his mouth. He loved those sticks! Sometimes he would just lay and chew. Sometimes he would bring pieces in the house. He was a good dog. I had to make the hardest decision to put him down because he tore both ACL’S in his rear knees. I couldn’t afford the surgery do him. I felt he wouldn’t have a good quality of life. This tore me apart. I love and miss him very much.
