Boogs crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday no tears only good memories,my best boys obituary. [View all]

Last edited Sun Apr 30, 2023, 07:37 AM - Edit history (1)

Was gonna go in to high school yesterday to jam with kids and i noticed my troop didn’t eat his pill in scrambled eggs and he was hacking hard trouble breathing the meds I give him and Mr big paws to take their vetprofin for arthritis. Then tried to give him his pill in peanut butter bread nope I felt his stomach he was bloated I called boys at their jobs at grocery store you got to come and help me.

We loaded him in 18 pathfinder folded the one seat down so we could love him as he rode in the back. Shit hold on had to run in and get a pillow for trooper to rest his head on stress and high strung emotions.
He passed in the exam table not alone we were with him 18 was looking into his eyes he peed his bladder released they were prepping him for blood work and x rays.
This morning we’re laughing joking saying Boog he probably at least pissed twice on the rainbow bridge and then he saw your mom he probably said lady where have you been I’ve missed you. WTB what the biscuits here I thought man lost you.

Boog came into this world 5/3/09 hooked up with boy 7/10/09 put his puppy ass down in the kitchen that first day and it was on. We always said his theme song was the Scorpions rock you like a hurricane that day he was on the loose Zooming oh look I have a KAT I will chase you and maul you Kat.

His choice of career was being a boog totally in love with his boy from the go and also a veteran of many contacts in backyard with skunks seriously a serial killer level of skunk murders many baths yet he do it again and again.

Besides being in solid loving relationship with his pack especially boy ,although with Nanna my wife’s mother they had a love to you aggravate the shit out of me dog Nannas words many times . Boog was like hey you’re my Nanna I love you yet couple times I left a load in the guest room was just my way of saying shouldn’t you be going home soon.

Boogs education was he was a failed candidate of obedience training at the parent teacher dog training meeting when he was being suspended she said he needs in house one on one training I can do it I have a program of two to three weeks are you both interested.
In the car on way home mister is leaning on my wife his body between the seats he was probably then eighteen months old I love you lady. I told Liz I’m not comfortable with the shock collar in house program so boog said hey I’ll obedience train myself I’m a stable genius.

Some of his more memorable achievements which he had many are eating Nanas birthday cake that Liz baked eating a pan of brownies for boys first grade birthday party oh eating a whole pizza at maybe seven months ooh I smell pizza. Chairs were not pushed in on dining room table it was gone.
Oh here is a memory we’re jamming maybe three four years ago and we’re running amps through surge protector. And he shocks himself we didn’t know why at first he cried then did it again upon investigation Boy discovers piece of hot dog bun on surge protector under amp cords.

He was an original we always would say if Mr Big paws the golden retriever best boy was human he would be a Astro physicist.

Then the Boog if he were human either John Belushi character from animal house or straight Danny Devitos character Frank from tv show it’s alway sunny in Philadelphia and by default that made boy Charlie Kelley they were a inseparable pair.

In closing 18 picked out a nice urn for mister will put him next to Liz yea lots of tears yesterday but mister would not want us to sad although we’re gonna miss him.
