RIP Matisse – Mildura Pound 2012.

On July 31st, we made the heart wrenching decision to assist Matisse, our little man, to cross the rainbow bridge. His illness came rapidly, the cancer was aggressive, it ravished his little body so quickly and the only decision left was to let him leave us peacefully.

17 years young and what a life he has led. He was my shadow, my velcro dog, he was my soul dog, the only dog of all the dogs that I have had in my life, that was literally attached to my hip. He picked me to be his Mum as much as I picked him to be my furry son, when we first met.

Oh, how we loved him so. The house is quiet, empty, but we feel his presence everywhere we look. He had 13 years in our home and he has left his mark in every nook and cranny. We will miss him with all our hearts. Like all the others that came before him, forever loved.
