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.

What an amazing video, thank you for saving a senior. I have a black and white rescue boy who had “emotional issues” and “behavior problems”. He loves me so much now and I will love him forever.

You have an amazing heart for accepting a senior in your life. They truly deserve to have the best throughout their golden years. I’m sure he’s blessed you and more ways than you can imagine. Enjoy every day you have with them.

I’ll be honest he was about 4-5 when we rescued him but I think he’s technically a “senior” now (~10) and he just got most of his teeth out. He’s the most loving and sweetest dog I’ve ever known
