fifteen years with us and i’m just heart broken to say good bye to him. the best dog ever!! my friend and best buddy. i could go on and on of course, but i’m sitting in a coffee shop and the tears are flowing, so i’ll keep it short.
adopted from the columbus dog connection and a huge challenge to get him. i was sure we wouldn’t measure up to their strict application, documented history with previous pets, interview and home inspection. in addition, small children and no fenced-in yard almost cut us from contention.
but i was determined! and that determination paid off!
he was everything we could have hoped for
an old soul full of love and loyalty.
from my favorite book on the subject beloved dog
“and it is very true, that the most tender, uncomplicated, most generous part of our being blossoms, without any effort, when it comes to the love of a dog.”
rest in peace pete!
xo!
