The Worst Week Anyone Could Ever Have...

Yesterday, February 14th, 2011, should have been a great day and wonderful start of the week... My day began with a small gift and card from my wonderful husband... but ended in tragedy. My English Bulldog foster sadly passed away. I have only had him for 2 months, but he has certainly left a large impression in my heart. I have cried almost continuously since I found him.

Rocco was a wonderful dog that wanted no more than to just be fed, petted, kept warm in the winter and cool in the summer. He loved staying close to us and always wanted a cuddle. Rocco never barked and since he was neutered he didn't have hardly any accidents in the house. He was perfect when I gave him a bath once every 2 weeks and just stared up and looked at me with love in his eyes, grateful that there was someone who was caring for him. He had previously been given up and I found him in a shelter who had taken wonderful care of him. From the moment I saw him, I knew it was love at first sight. He was the perfect canine companion and he will be truly missed. I know that he is in a better place now where he can hear and see perfectly, and hopefully I will get to see him again one day... but until then, he will stay in my heart and my memories.... and I hope he continues to rest in peace...
