π Run Free, Bosly π
Hi there Miss Bosly,
It's been quite a while since you ran to the Rainbow Bridge. It has taken considerable time for me to compose the words that I wanted to say for your tribute, my dear. I hope you have been playing happily with all your friends and family there.
Your legacy holds strong and continues to help so many pups and families in need of a safe place to play and to freely be a dog. Of course, we still miss you greatly and the heartbreak felt is so profound.
I still watch your videos to enjoy your treat chompies - you always had such gusto for my treats! It was just so rewarding to see you relax and melt into your favorite bed when I worked on your back and shoulders during our sessions together... and then immediately wake up with crazy eyes for TREATS at the end! I laugh even now thinking back to those funny times. After all, I only have so many pictures of you because most of them came out blurry from your energy! It was hard to do justice to your true beauty on film anyway. :) There were even those special times where you enjoyed the session SO much, you had to be roused awake only to give us the "why are you waking me up?" face! Such a sweet, expressive, little soul.
I met you later in life but that didn't mean that I missed out on witnessing your fiery spirit. It may have looked different, but it was still there and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to befriend you and your mama, and help you in your golden age.
What a truly magical creature you are - To be such an inspiration to your mama for her to build this community of pet parents, this movement for our Chicago dogs, and this support structure for those in need or who feel lost. She misses you so dearly but she continues to love you forever - and we know you will continue to inspire her throughout her life.
Thank you so much for such wonderful memories - from me, from your community, and, especially, from your mama. Its so hard to say goodbye, so let's say "until we meet again".
We love you, Bosly. A piece of our hearts will always belong to you. π©·
