To the dog I didn’t want, but somehow needed more than I knew. 🤍
Charlie, thank you for letting me be your person.
Thank you for teaching me more than I ever could have imagined, not only about dogs, but about true genetic aggression, compassion, responsibility, and what it means to love a dog whose world wasn’t always easy to navigate.
I’m proud to say that I kept you safe. I kept the people and animals around you safe. And through all of it, I made sure you knew you were loved.
Yesterday, I cried tears of both sadness and joy.
Sadness because I’ll never get to see that sweet, big ol’ meathead smiling back at me again.
But joy because you’re finally free.
No more stress. No more struggles. No more fighting against a brain that sometimes made the world harder for you than it should have been.
Just peace. Just freedom.
And yes, as a dog trainer, I choose to believe that all dogs go to Heaven.
Because if these incredible creatures can spend their entire lives loving us with everything they have, how could I believe they deserve anything less than eternal happiness?
Run free, Charlie. 🤍
Thank you for choosing me to be the one who loved you through it all.
XOXO,
Momma🫶🏼
