Our Kids

Today was a very sad day. We found out that our beloved golden Rupert had terminal cancer. Just Monday he was out with us walking like he always does, playing with us in the park and standing by our side. I wanted to write a post so that you guys can remember what a great dog he was to you both.

He was furry and you both liked to pet him, he was cuddly and you both liked to cuddle him, sometimes he was grumpy and that made Lela cry. He would let you pull his hair, step on his tail and hold his leash when we walked. He loved you both a lot and would plant big wet sloppy kisses on your cheeks, foreheads or any other part of you that happened by his mouth. Sometimes he would knock you down when he got excited but you never really got upset, he would push you aside to get out the door before you but he never meant any harm. You both loved to call him using sign language and you both even would point your fingers at him and say “GET”. You had learned to shove him aside when he was in your way and he did not mind at all. You both had also learned to throw any food you did not want in his direction and he would eat it for you and never tattle.

He was the best dog and he loved you both and you both loved him. Today he died and went to doggie heaven to be with his friends and we are all very sad.
