Holly

✎ How brave were they at the vet?
Holly was the most stoic dog ever when it came to anything health related. She tolerated so many things going wrong with her over the years, from multiple cancers and tumours, to diet issues, to never having been spayed and eventually, her eyes deteriorating to the point she had to leave us. She was always so determined, mostly because nobody ever told her she couldn't.

When I had a massive knee injury and was in crutches for 9 months, her determination to just get on with the day despite the difficulties gave me the strength that I needed to pick myself back up. If it wasn't for her, I might not be back to full health today without crutches or pain meds.

Every since the first day I met you in Ireland you stole my heart and you become one of my closest friends, I miss you in the morning darling. Hope your safe and at peace.
We miss your stinky breath and how you'd bark us out of bed in the morning to get your Dreamies and Metacam if we slept past 8AM.
