    Default A Dog’s Last Will & Testament-Apollo

    A Dog’s Last Will & Testament
    Before humans die, they write their last will and testament, giving their home and all they have to those they leave behind. If, with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I’d ask…
    To a poor and lonely stray I’d give my happy home; my bowl and cozy bed, soft pillow and all my toys; the lap, which I loved so much; the hand that stroked my fur; and the sweet voice that spoke my name.
    I’d will to the sad, scared shelter dog the place I had in my human’s loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.
    So, when I die, please do not say, “I will never have a pet again, for the loss and the pain is more than I can stand.”
    Instead, go find an unloved dog, one whose life has held no joy or hope, and give my place to him.

    This is the only thing I can give…
    The love I left behind.
    To my sweet boy Apollo
    love Sonja

    You honored this when you brought Ariel home. I know Apollo is so proud of his mom and happy for his brother.

    Oh, I am just crying at such a beautiful written testament. Our hearts are always going to be filled with the joy and love that we shared with our beloved babies.

    I will always love you my Angel Bo.

    This quote released a waterfall of tears. Such a beautiful testament. I wasn't quite ready to read it though.

    Sonja, That is so sweet.
    I'm sure Apollo is very proud of his mom and happy that Ariel has her love.
