It’s with deep sadness and a heavy heart we say goodbye to our beloved beautiful boy Rufus.
Rufus has been in our lives since he was 8 weeks old, and after 12 years and 8 months he passed away this afternoon after a short illness. Over the years he has enriched our lives, loved so deeply and we can’t believe how lucky we are to have had such a kind, loving and gentle boy.
Our Mum, Sandra has been the best dog Mum ever, giving him the best life any dog could ever want. From growing up on the beautiful beaches of Selsey and West Wittering, running around the stunning wilderness of Moray in Scotland to spending his winter years getting love and treats in our pet shop in Saltash.
We know many of you have fallen in love with Rufus, and we really appreciate all the love, cuddles and treats he’s received over the years. He made lots of friends here, and we know he will be greatly missed by many of you all. We appreciate all the love you have given him and we thank everyone for coming in and seeing him in our shop since 2023.
We all love you so much Rufie Boy! You will always be in our hearts and we will miss you every day.
Rufus
