My incredibly wise, intuitive, gorgeous, sweet-as-pie Goose (Great Pyr/Lab X+) entered the spirit world Saturday/27th in the morning (approximately 2 am). Salsa & Hazel & I were by his side the whole time.
He was Salsa's fierce protector, Hazel's best friend to the ends of the earth...and my twin flame all these years. I know all of you know this anguish. We don't know how we'll go on without them...but we do. I'm really not sure why this never, never gets any easier. Simple, I guess. Love. My heart is broken into a million pieces. Part & parcel of loving these amazing creatures. The hardest part. You all know.
He and I have been surrounded by so much compassion and support. My gratitude...beyond the galaxies.
I'm really, really lost without him. I know the pain will lessen over time. It always does. But you guys know...right now it's so, so raw.
Here are some of my favorite pics of my dear boy & his doggy sisters. The pic of him with his head lying on the pink carpet (so exhausted) is the 1st night I brought him home out of the cold...darkened fur from the chain around his neck. His gotcha day was 2/4/15 (about a year old at that time). Those chain marks disappeared and his soul blossomed.
I've also included 2 pics of his burial spot and my dear friend's fuzzy companion, Jax, who adorably "supervised" our digging of Goose's grave. The planks of wood are temporary. I've got a doggy memorial stone for later.
Love you, my friends. Thank you for reading and viewing the pics. Somehow FB/IG posts help to not feel so alone in this. Because I know I'm not. Not by a long shot.
Please forgive the length of this post. Trust me. It could've been much longer. ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
