Lilo
Best Puppy Ever
March 2006 – October 2022
We had to say good-bye to our very old dog on Monday. It is now day two without our sweet Lilo… 0/10, do not recommend.
She was struggling with pancreatitis, kidney failure, and very old age. Over the weekend, it all just got to be too much.
Lilo was a once-in-a-lifetime dog. She loved people, but didn’t care all that much for other dogs. She was sweet without being clingy. She wanted to be near you or on you, but didn’t care much for being hugged. She slept on the couches, or in bed, even though she had a few dog beds. Her trademark disappointment at dinnertime — what is this, dog food? — was legendary.
She was very mellow about visiting the vet… loved all the people, could take or leave what happened anywhere in the building.
We were with her at the end, and she was loved on by her friends at the vet’s office. It was a quiet and peaceful passing.
She had a very long, good life, and she was loved every day of it. We are so grateful to have been her people. We are relieved that she is no longer struggling.
And now we are sad… so very sad.
