Looks like I'm going to lose another one

We don't have as far to go, as we've already been
Location
Arkansas, and also Florida
As some of you may know, I am involved in dog rescue: my wallet & gas tank are always running on empty, my house is never quiet or free of dog hair, nor is my car; my inbox is full of ongoing despair & misery, but my heart & soul are replenished by the unconditional love, loyalty and joy that can only come from a rescued dog.

Toby Tyler is a shih tzu, he is such a beautiful pure heart inside and out. He was left tied to a porch when people moved from a trailer, hungry, matted, and smelling of cowpoop, he too was taken to a kill shelter and I had to drive 90 miles one way right away that night to save him.
He has been a happy, love giving angel ever since! Not sure of his age, but, I've had him for 15 years. He is slowly heading for the rainbow bridge, but is in no pain. I fear he won't last another week. This never get's easier. :cry:

Hugs to you, Squatting.

This is why dear husband and I haven't been able to own a fur-baby, because the loss would do us in.

I know that you will miss him terribly when he crosses the rainbow bridge, but this story was beautiful and touching. Toby will be waiting for you at the Golden Gate.

You're very kind for all you do for those dogs, and I know they love you for it. Sad to hear about your Toby, but you gave him many years of being well cared for in a loving home. You have to find comfort in knowing he had the best life possible with you, and when he passes, his last feelings will be of love and calm. It is never easy, I admire you for being an animal lover and sharing your life with these furbabies. 💚

Thank you all for your kind words. My Toby crossed the rainbow bridge this morning at 10 am. And now, if you'll forgive me, I'm going outside and cry alligator tears for my boy. :cry: I can barely see this keyboard.
