Today would have been Mandi’s birthday. For those of you who have been following me; you know that my website, Ask Ms Mandi is a tribute to my first Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Mandi. We raised her from a mere five weeks old, until she got jaw cancer in 2006 and passed away. My family and I still miss, even though it has been almost seven years now since she has passed. She was twelve years old.

She was a great dog. I remember when she was just six months old. I was really sick and had to stay inside the house for a week straight. She didn’t bother me to go outside and play, she just lay next to me in my bed, patiently. She was always there for me and I will never forget her.

“Pit Bulls” have a bad reputation with the media and such. I am sure that there are evil dogs out there that harms others. This is sad because a dog is the reflection of its owner. There are bad people and bad dogs. Needless to say, Mandi was one of the kindest animals I have ever had the pleasure of spending 12 years. She was kind to children, animals and all people. She did not discriminate.

RIP Mandi and we will always love you.
