FAREWELL BUGSY

Bugsy came into rescue last year when his owner had serious life issues.   He needed help with his old Peke and we said yes. 

Bugsy had so many health issues.  His eyes were a mess, but with care and meds, his eyes healed.  Treating dry eye is SO important.

He was matted when he came in, so one of our vet tech had "too much fun" trimming him down.  LOL  He was so good with all of it.

He had arthritis, had trouble getting around, but he loved his foster family.  Nikki took incredible care of him.

He was good at the vet and we did all he needed.

He loved his fireplace.   It made his bones feel good.

He could sit up for treats if he was determined.

He was able to celebrate Christmas last year with lots of love and doggy brothers.

Bugsy began to have more issues and we knew his time was getting short.    It's never easy to admit that -- because even if "they are foster dogs" we love them like our own.  And Nikki and Greg did that.

Bugsy was happy with them, but he began to decline.  They took him to the vet hoping there was more that could be done, but an xray showed a lot going on-- he probably had liver cancer, and there was just nothing that could be done.   He was let go with them there, loving him to the end.

So, Bugsy, you run free now-- your foster family misses you so much.  But, in your honor, they will foster another.  It's the legacy you left-- and their hearts can just grow to love another.   You were loved.  💙
