Bo peacefully left this life today. We love our boy so much and are blessed to have gotten so much extra time with him. His spirit will live on forever...chasing squirrels, rolling in the grass, and of course, diving in the water. He is with so many others who have gone before him, playing at Rainbow Bridge.
Keep on, keepin' on, Angel Bo. We love you forever.
Sorry for your loss. Your last trip to the beach is an incredible memory for you to have. Your Bo is watching you from the shores in doggie heaven now.
I am so sorry to hear Bo has gone to the bridge. My thoughts are with you and your family as you face this transition none of us want to make. Hopefully the many happy memories you shared will help you through this difficult time.
RIP sweet Bo. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.
Shanna & Spirit Trouble ~ Trouble gained her wings 3/16/2011, a 27 1/2 month cancer survivor, tail wagging. RIP sweetheart, you are my heart and soul. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.

Oh Meghan, I am so sorry. I know how hard that last gift is to give to your beloved Bo. I know that Chili Dawg greeted him and the two of them are now lounging in the grass in the sun together. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Jenna
Diagnosed with OSA: 5/2/2011 Ampuversary: 5/11/2011 OSA returned in hip: 8/26/2011
Chili Dawg crossed the Rainbow Bridge on 8/30/2011 & is now pain free. He was my heart dog, and I miss him every day.
I'm sorry Bo has gone on ahead.
You guys did a wonderful job these past 3 months, making each day count, cherishing each moment.
I hope that soon Bo's memory will bring smiles through the tears. For now we will mourn your loss with you.

Oh no, I was just thinking about Bo yesterday and hoping his jar of Good Day pennies was getting very full.
You guys really made the most of your extra special time with Bo. I'm sure he loved that trip to the beach. We are sending virtual hugs and healing Abby kisses.
Love never dies,
Jackie, Abby's mom
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
Meghan, I'm so sorry. Like Jackie, I was just thinking about you guys, too. Every day when I check in, I hold my breath and I was so delighted that Bo was having some fun weeks. I'm sorry that Bo's time was no longer good, but I'm so happy that he got to fill the penny jar for 12 weeks! Just remember all the love you gave each other. He was something special, and you will remember him that way. Thank you for sharing him here with us. I have enjoyed his journey very much.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
I'm so sorry to hear about Bo. What a wonderful boy! You were such a great Mom to him. We love you Bo!

Life is good, so very, very good!!! Gayle enjoyed each and every moment of each and every wonderful day (naps included). She left this world December 12, 2011 – off on a new adventure.
Love Never Ends
Godspeed, Bo............my gaggle of goldens, one labbie with a boo boo foot and two pup-loving kitties I'm sure greeted him as he arrived at the Bridge.
