Some people count life in years…
We count it in paw prints. 🐾
Aries and Fiji lived to be 18 years old. Aries fought cancer for 6 of those years, lost her leg, and still never stopped following me from room to room. Fiji once saved my life on one of the darkest nights I’ve ever lived through — she stood between me and danger and refused to leave my side.
Our Great Dane Jovi is 10 now, deaf, rescued from abuse as a puppy, and the gentlest soul we’ve ever known. Luke even taught her sign language so she could still understand us.
We cook their food every day.
We make their beds soft.
We stay up on the hard nights.
Not because it’s easy…
Because they deserve dignity in old age the same way they gave us love their whole lives.
Dogs don’t just grow old with you…
They carry your story with them.
Aries. Fiji. Jovi.
Forever our girls. ❤️🐾
