Boo: A Farewell To My Best Friend

Boo, my faithful canine companion and best friend, passed on today. I knew this day was coming and had made this video tribute to his memory. He was the single-most incredible and loving dog I have ever known.

I recently rescued my Chow boy Sully....and I truely have to believe Maddy would want me to have help mending the giant chunk of my heart that broke the day I lost her. Rip Boo...who knows maybe my Maddy girl and your Boo Boy are playing at the rainbow bridge : ) Peace to you and yours from one fellow lover of Chows to another. Dedra

@222kwee Good for you! I will rescue another dog when the time comes. Maddy would want someone with you--for protection (you know how protective Chows are). Thank you for taking Sully into your home.

what an amazing tribute to your beautiful boy Boo. He was gorgeous and regal looking as Chows are. My heart aches for you and I hope time can help heal. I had to make the heartbreaking decision to let my beloved Chow Maddy go as well last year. You did the absolute right thing for Boo...if only we as the human race had the same option as opposed to a life of pain and suffering. Bless you for rescuing...Boo was a lucky Chow boy to have found such a loving and caring family.

@222kwee I am so sorry to hear about Maddy. Maddy was lucky to have you-- as there are so many pets out there who don't have anyone. I'm sure she loved you just as much as you loved her.

What a handsome guy, he looks like a little lion sometimes! Animals really enrich our lives, I believe it's worth the pain when they leave us. We can learn a lot from them! Nothing compares with pet loss grief... sometimes people discount this; they don't know what they're saying. This vid is a tear-jerker Shawn! I hope making it helped a bit with your grief!

@75capriceconvertible I wish I had more pictures/video of him earlier on--before he got so old. He was everything to me. I grieved more for Boo than I have for any person I think i've ever lost. Isn't that horrible to say? But it's so true. I miss him so much.

@boinnng nope that's not terrible to say at all, I get it. After a couple of the relationships I've had with people, it just made me love animals even more :-D

it must have been old age a dogs age is always timsed by seven so, yeah old age.

P.S. I want a chow chow when i'm older.

@heatherbonney Hi Heather. I don't really know how old Boo was (he was a rescue). It was estimated he was between 16 and 17...but that seems old for a chow. It's amazing your family has had chows for 50 years---they are an amazing bred, very loving and fiercely loyal.  I don't do Facebook, sorry. But I appreciated your comment. I am sorry for the loss of your Romeo.
