Saying Goodbye
It is with sadness that we share the news that we lost Cooper this weekend to cancer. We know that he is currently running in fields of soft, sweet grass, chasing squirrels and lounging about on the softest most comfortable bed there ever was. As heartbroken as we are, we know he is out of pain and happily acquainting himself with the infinite beauties of Heaven.
After Cooper had a tumor removed this past July, we were able to have 5 more months with our boy. Our concern was for Cooper’s quality of life and when his body began to break down, despite treatment and medication, we knew it was time. He is now with all the other doggies that have given us all so much unconditional love over the years.
As we have said so many times, Cooper has been our perfect dog and has given us so much joy. We hope we have done the same for him and that he’ll be watching us from his new home.
Cole is too young to understand what is happening and has been asking about Cooper... "Doggie? Doggie?" We found a wonderful book called Dog Heaven. and have been sharing that with him while explaining that he is gone now and living in heaven.
Below is a tribute to our "first born". We miss him terribly.
