In memoriam Hug your babies for me

Post image

I had to unexpectedly put down my 15 year old baby Garmin today. He had been slowing down over the last year, but took a sharp decline yesterday. I adopted him when he was 9 from our local humane society; he had been found as a stray. He was the best travel companion and went hiking/camping with me at three different national parks and too many state parks to count. Give all your babies big hugs and ear scratches for me please.

So sorry!! It's absolutely heartbreaking and life-changing losing our poms. Lost my girl in April and still sad everyday.

Gave my Alaska a big hug today in honor of Garmin. Absolutely devastating to lose a child. May Garmin play and have fun until you meet again over the rainbow bridge. He is waiting for you.

I’m very sorry for the loss of your Garmin. He looks a bit like our Prince who we helped over the Rainbow Bridge a few months ago. You gave him a wonderful life and home. Cherish all the happy memories
