It’s not just a job ❌
Honestly, it’s never felt like work, not even when your p**s wet through or it’s freezing cold.
Us dog walkers get the privilege of meeting incredible people and sharing days, weeks, months, even YEARS of your dog’s lives. When one of them moves on or passes away, it hits hard..like losing a really close friend. Our time on this earth is so short, and yet, as dog walkers, we’re already woven into so much of what your dog experiences
When I first started, it was rare for any dog but mine to ride up front. Then came Willow. She and my dog got along so well that they’d share the passenger seat like old pals. Willow was the most well mannered dog I’ve ever known. Our joke used to be we could walk 20 willows with no trackers up the mountain.. she was just that easy.. that happy to be in your presence..she felt like my own...A dear dear friend. This Wednesday, she sadly passed away
It’s a reminder of how brief our time with them is. And not just with them but with everyone, with everything. So hug your loved ones tight and live like tomorrow might not come, because one day, this incredible ride we’re on will end before we know it
To Willow and her amazing owners John & Mandy who rescued her at eight months old! thank you for letting us experience her life with you
See you on the other side, Wills 💚
