Despedida doce amigo...

"Fado" has left us to Kiss the Angels.

He was our happiest Hello and our saddest Goodbye.
9/2/2002-7/4/2018 In his bed asleep, after a full life.

Augh........

So sorry for your loss. You clearly loved Fado who clearly had unconditional love for you and your family. Heartbreaking when they leave us - perhaps because they're so responsible for holding our hearts together when they're here....

So sorry for your loss. I hope years of happy memories bring smiles whenever Fado crosses your mind.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your sweet dog. Please be sure you are taking care of yourself during your grief. Nothing is better than the love of a dog and they are always in our hearts.

So sorry - we dog people understand your loss.

Ultimately just always remember who saved who.

And yes, we DO understand, and the best/sad part is that we continue to rescue, adopt and love our dogs in spite of the occasional deep, numbing pain in our hearts when they leave us. They also loved us back, unconditionally...maybe that makes the loss a little easier to bear.

Who saved who? I've never been able to determine that--I think it's mutual, with all our rescues.

Each of mine do (and have) saved me in some manner, no question.

Mine saves me on a daily basis. I’m sorry, hopefully this will help.

The Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
