It is with sadness and confusion that I write this. Our last post was about the sunflowers we found growing! Today, I had an update with more pictures and a story to tell! I went to post it on one of the groups Xander has always been a part of and really loved. I couldn't find the group. I suddenly realized Xander had been blocked. I went to message the administrator and was blocked too. I'm confused and hurt, not only for Xander's legacy but for the friends in that group who now won't see Xander again, and I have no way of letting them know. I had asked people to sign up their doxie to help with weather reports, and many did, but if they are not on Xander's page, they will not know. Xander grew up on Doxies of the Maritimes; that's where he grew up, and many came to love him. I don't think our last post was troubling. I wanted to grow a community to help with the grief of pet loss, do weather reports, and try to help people as well as make them smile. Xander was a loving, caring, and loyal friend to everyone. It breaks my heart that he is now lost to people who might not be able to find his page. This was Xander's legacy... I don't understand why anyone would want to destroy it by removing him. He was love, light, funny, silly, and extremely caring. I will carry his legacy on here, but I feel terrible for the people who are in that group that loved Xander and don't know. I'll share his new sunflower pics tomorrow; I just wanted you all to know the situation.
I believe in integrity; dogs have it. Unfortunately, many people have shown they don't.
Stay dry, warm, and kind.
