Our Ugly Puppy Smegol

Our Ugly Puppy SmegolWe call him our ugly Smegol because he is a pure bread boston terrier with very rare markings. And all white face. With huge blue eyes. Unwanted by dog breeders because of his (uniqueness) no one wanted him, me included. He was going to be put to sleep. My 4 year old son grabbed on to him and said "Mom, he loves me, and his name is Smegol." My son loved Lord of the Rings at such a young age. Both movie and dog actually kinda looked similiar so I thought well ok, since my son attached himself to this puppy so quickly how could I break them up? Well, we had Smegol about a year and a half since age 7 weeks. While we were out of town, he was staying with family and got stuck under their fence and died. Oct. 11, 2006. Our hearts died along with him. He was our other child. We loved him so much. And everyday we think about him and he is forever missed. We miss you, our ugly puppy.
