Being entrusted with your pets (all of you reading this right now) is an honor and a privilege. We love them all. They are as unique and individual as any human. They have nicknames with us, some have special songs we sing them, and itโs probably not shocking for people at this point to drive down Bodine and see us dancing and playing with dogs when weโre taking them out to potty. In short, we have our own special bonds with your pets and we DO get very attached. We LOVE when we can be where they feel safe, and where you feel safe leaving them.
That makes the hardest part of what we do saying goodbye. We mourn every loss as if it were our own, because they are all part of our crazy, chaotic boarding family. This year has been exceptionally hard on losses, and this is only June. Pet Memorial Day is actually in September, but we want to take a moment now to say we are thinking of all of you who have had to say goodbye to your fur kids, be it this year or in general. It truly never gets easier.
PS. Special thanks to those who let us know when theyโve had to say goodbye. You may not always think to reach out to your boarding facilities, but trust us, we/they all appreciate it. ๐บ
