Adi Beagle Dog -- NaPoWriMo 2022 Day Seventeen

Adi was retired -- In more ways than one 

Adi died in 2012 

Adi; our Beagle Dog; 

                            sort of

Adi was my granddog 

Google never liked her 

mostly because granddog  

was spelled with 

two words in 

her sad dictionary 

Adi was a grand dog 

and was our granddog. 

Adi came to live with us 

when our daughter could 

not keep Beagle Dogs in 

her new apartment so she 

had stayed with us for the 

rest of her life. 

Adi and I were registered 

as a pet therapy couple 

We were tested every year 

She loved to visit 

the Alzheimer wing 

Every resident loved her 

and she loved them in return 

One day Adi's mom came to visit 

Hubby had come along 

Adi didn't know they were coming 

I didn't want her to get 

her hopes up too far ahead 

of time
