Beautiful Baron

[tatsxxx11]

It's always a bittersweet Sunday when a Rainbow Bridge angel is our featured honoree. But the sadness I may feel, knowing a fellow dog lover has lost a beloved furkid, is a small price to pay for the privilege of having the chance to honor one as special as you, Baron. And as moving as your human's tribute is, no amount of words can ever describe just how special you are.

You and your human both endured more than your fair share of challenges during your precious 10 plus years together. But through it all, the good times and bad, you were always there for one another, unconditionally. As your vet told your mommy/daddy, it was your human's unwavering commitment to keeping you healthy that allowed you to live as long as you did, and no doubt it was your love and devotion that allowed your human to triumph over that dreaded disease. And while no bond can compare to the one you and your person shared, your big heart, your gentle spirit, your peacemaking ways extended far beyond your immediate family, as witnessed in the comfort you brought to that sad and lonely man who had just lost his wife, to the puppy you so valiantly saved from those frozen waters, to those dogs whose fights you broke up; to all creatures, great and small, animal and human alike.

I so wish that your time together had been longer, but your separation is only temporary, Baron, and one day in the distant future you two will be reunited. And until that joyful day, you live on in her/his heart, in the countless memories that you made, in the hearts of all of those whose lives were touched by your loving spirit. How blessed your human was to have known your unconditional love, your devoted companionship those precious years. You were not merely a best friend, a loving companion, you were her soul mate, her savior, her Dog of a Lifetime! Now, run happy and whole and healthy at the Rainbow Bridge, sweetheart, and send down your love to your human, to comfort her until that wonderful day when once again, you two will be as one. God bless you, beautiful Baron, with hopes that your human continues to enjoy good health.

You were such a handsome boy Baron. It sounds like you were a wonderful dog.

I hope seeing you as DOTD makes this a special day for your family.

Thank you for sharing your story about Baron. He looks like he was a great dog. We too have suffered that loss and understand the pain .We recently adopted a new dog (dog of the day Max on December 19) and he fills our lives and time with his own unique personality and lots of love and laughs. Bless you for loving your animals so much.
