Henry ❤️🌈🐾

Post image

Had to make the heart breaking decision almost a month ago to let my boy Henry go. He got really sick over the weekend and we loved him too much to let him be in pain. He was my first boxer to make it to the double digits let alone being 12. Miss him everyday.

So sorry for your loss. I still miss each of my past boxers. Some were 35 years ago and still come to my dreams.

Such a beauty. I’m so sorry for your loss. Lost my best boy 1/11/2026 after almost ten years. Losing them is very heartbreaking. The emptiness at home is something else. It looks like you gave Henry the best life. I know that doesn’t help much because the love they give is irreplaceable. Grief doesn’t have a time limit. Please be easy on yourself. Condolences and best wishes. Until we meet them again 🙏 🐾 💜 here’s a pic of my boy Puppy, thought I’d share :…)

Henry, I’d like to introduce Morgan, Connor, Ta’arna, Tsavo, Goldie and Toby. They will keep you company till your people get here. Till then it’s all the steak you can eat. All the cats you would like to play (pester) with and never ending rounds of fetch. Or anything else your heart desires!!

My sincerest condolences! The ache will fade but the love never will. The hole in your heart just needs another goofball.

I usually make it about two weeks before the lack of nails tapping hardwood drives me crazy.
