Tyrion 🩵
“Tyrion came to me through rescue, at 10 years old he had been surrendered. The family that had gotten him as a puppy had a 2-year old that he just couldn’t get along with. I foster failed when his behavior issues were too much even for the rescue to handle. I found an angel of a dog trainer, Sierra. She put him through doggy boot camp and he became more manageable. He was still stubborn and was never crazy about outside people or dogs. Despite all the struggles he and I went through together. I never doubted my choice to keep him and keep fighting for him. We had 4 crazy, wonderful years together. He had more toys than he knew what to do with, but always lit up at the sight of a new one. He could not get enough bath time. And yes, toys had to be involved there too. He never acted his age until he got sick. He was always active and wild. He developed Cushings and Pulmonary Hypertension that slowed him down severely over the last year and eventually took him. He was a miniature and never knew it. He was my deceptively cute, feisty old man. I miss him every minute of the day and I love him just as much. He was preceded in death my his foster fail sister, Pumpkin (Punk). She was the only dog that he ever got along with, without issue. He loved her and my only solace is that he is with her again. Four years is a long time to have a senior dog and yet it feels like it was so short. It feels so wrong to not have him here bossing me around to get him treats or play with his squeaky toys. I love you so much Tyrion, my eyes and my heart still search for you. Until we meet again, little man.” — Remembered by Chrystal McGuire
