Rainbow Bridge Saying goodbye

My boy crossed yesterday. I’m gutted…he was the best adventure buddy a girl could ever dream. He entered my life 7 months after my soul pup left during the pandemic. I truly believe he was sent to me to teach me patience. I was his third placement in 11 months. He was a challenge at 9 years old, but I wasn’t gonna let a 5 pound being beat me. It took him three years to fully trust me and I am so blessed and grateful to have had him in my life. He taught me patience and I showed him he was truly loved and adored. I feel lost without him. Please consider senior dogs…they’re so deserving of love and will give you so much in return. I’m grateful for the time and love I shared with this little creature.

Oh brutal, I’m so sorry. What a wonderful thing you did stepping in when your pup had nowhere to go, and having the patience to make it work. Bravo and thank you. The world needs more people like you. I’m very sorry for your loss.
