My loyal companion Bode passed away on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, from canine lymphoma — just one month shy of his ninth birthday. I know everyone thinks their dog is the best but Bode truly was the best dog ever. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/in-m... - ThreadSky

So sorry,they bring such joy to our lives

I'm so sorry for your loss. Our pets become family. I'm glad you had those years with him to love him and be loved by him. 🙏🏽💙☮️

When each of my parents and older sister passed, I didn’t shed a tear. I was miserable but could not cry.
When my childhood dog, (11-28 years old) passed, I bawled like a baby…..they are special creatures
Rest Easy, Bode
