Older Dog Ends Up in Shelter After Owner Dies, Finds Family That Helps with Her Mobility Issues (Page 2 ) | September 18, 2023

She was 7-years-old and her owner had died. We only had her for 3.5 years, but they were the best years ever. She had a tear in her leg and we had an ortho doctor look at her, but he said nothing could be done and to walk her every day. My husband walked her all the time, and when her leg started getting worse and she couldn’t get in the car, he made a ramp for her that he took out every time he took her. He never complained and she loved him so much. When it was getting hard to get up on the couch, he built her a step and carpeted it, as well as the ramp.

she was so beautiful inside and out. Our time with her was too short, but we loved every minute. She decided when she was ready to go. We knew it was going to be soon, but she just stopped eating because that was her only way to let us know that it was too painful for her to keep going.

She left us with broken hearts, but we understood. She was wonderful.
