Who would have ever thought that such a cranky little dog would leave our hearts feeling so empty? Our beautiful Frankie has left us. We weren’t ready – I guess we never are – but he told us he was. He slipped away peacefully, wrapped in our arms with Rudi’s cheek against his little face, knowing he was loved beyond measure … and letting us know he loved us, too. But for now, we are terribly sad, our hearts ache.
We realize that so many of you were a part of our dear little boy’s journey, and you loved him, too. You made it possible for us to save him. We truly believe he felt your love and that it gave him hope and new life. We are forever grateful.

It must have just happened. My husband told me this am that he was in poor shape but didn’t pass. I can still see his crocked body walking fast in his video. Thanks you so much for your love and care of Frankie.
My heart aches for you. Frankie knew gentle hands and voices, warmth, comfort, security, and an abundance of love. He even became confident enough to make demands and sass. hugs

Thank you for giving this little guy a great life he would not have had without your interference and help. You are able to run and play now, Frankie, with all your brothers and sisters who went before you.
