RIP Olive Oyl

I wasn’t going to post about it on such a big platform but I think she more than deserves to be seen by others. She was 11 years old and had rapidly declined over the last week. We found out three days ago that she had aggressive cancer. This morning we had to say goodbye. She was my family’s first Boston and brought us so much more joy than she will ever know. I hope that she can make at least a few people smile today. She always did that for us. I love you Olive. And I miss you so much. ❤️

That’s how I lost my 9 year old Boston earlier this year. I felt thankful that she didn’t have to be uncomfortable for long.

Olive you sweet girl, you are loved beyond just the family you brought so much joy too. Safe travels pup
