An item on the list is to take the dog to dinner at a restaurant. How stupid is that?

“His former owners left him at a high-kill shelter”

Soulless.

What I would not give to have one more year..or month..or week...even a day with my gone dogs.

What I have done, when they were down and near the end, just to keep them happy and going a bit longer.

No matter how long I had them, it was never time enough.

No matter how much “trouble” it was to help them get around, I never thought it a burden.

Every single second was a blessing to have.

And they dumped him.

Just soulless.

Subaru has new “old dog bucket list” commercial that guts me.

Wish they’d stop showing it.

I did something similar with a 20 year old cat recently.
My folks had to move into assisted living and couldn’t take care of him anymore. No shelter would take him and the only alternative was to have him put down. He looked like pet cemetery but he was still alert and got around okay so I decided that, even if he’s only got a few months left, I was going to make sure he got them.
It ended up being only two, but it’s two months he wouldn’t have had otherwise.
And he was my bud the whole time.

I saw this story on Facebook, and didn’t read it as I knew I’d be unable to finish due to blurry screen syndrome.

Didn’t know that dogs have bucket lists

Glad he found a caring owner

Beautiful girl, on the outside too.
My pup got an extra ration of turkey tonight.
Turkey is on his ‘bucket list’.

Here’s a somewhat related story. Not sure how I feel about this one:

I saw an article on another site that the pup has passed away.

Looks like his last days were happy.
