Many of you already know the fated love story of Jameson and I. For those who don't, here's a quick recap:
Jameson was up for adoption and I fell in love with him through pictures and videos online. We had 2 dogs and many other pets at the time, and adopting another dog just wasn't in the cards for us. He was adopted, I was heartbroken and I thought that was the end of the story. Fast forward a few years and it turns out one of my clients is the cousin of Jameson's adopted family ... and they were looking for a pet sitter. I couldn't have said "yes" faster. I didn't care that he lived an hour outside of my service area.
As I have said before, I have never been greeted by a dog before or since like I was with Jameson on that consult. We were meant to be together in this life in some way or form. I have never doubted that for a second.
Walking through the door to his little squeals of excitement made my heart swell each and every time. Our time together was never long enough and saying goodbye broke my heart, even though I knew I'd be back soon. He was one of my best friends and one of my soul mates.
Jameson lost his battle with cancer this week. Even though I hadn't sat for him in awhile, his dad always kept me updated with pictures and stories about how he was doing.
I miss my buddy and I know we will find each other again. Rest easy 💜
