Dear precious Kobi. What a beautiful Chessie girl you were, inside and out, and what a wonderful, long life you were blessed with, though when it comes to our beloved furkids, for we humans, long is never long enough. You faced some very, very serious health challenges before you earned your angel wings, but in true Retriever spirit, through it all, you battled so valiantly, so courageously. And through it all there was your family as well, right by your side, loving you so completely and doing all in their power to heal you and keep you with them for as long as possible. How blessed your family was (especially your Daddy, who never left your side), to have had you, their precious Kobi, their Dog of a Lifetime, with them those many years; always ready and eager to dispense a sloppy kiss, lick away their tears, put a smile on their faces. You truly were one extra special girl, Kobi, and so very deserving of being honored here today.
Romp and play happily at the Rainbow Bridge, sweetheart, until that happy day when you and your family are reunited. And send down your love to them and watch over them...they miss you so.
To the family of Kobi~Thank you so much for sharing your memories and photos of your beloved Kobi with us all, giving us the chance to pay tribute to her and all that she means to you. How blessed you were to have known her love and devoted companionship those many years. She truly was one in a million.
