Yesterday we woke to heartbreak. Our beloved dog Roxie had passed away suddenly in the night. There had been no warning signs or anything. Yes she was quite old at approximately 12-13 years old, but she hadn’t let us know if she was suffering. We didn’t think she was, to be honest. Just the day before, she had been her usual bright and bubbly self. We believe she probably had a massive heart attack during her sleep, which is the best way to go, isn’t it?
Roxie was such a beautiful soul. She was a rescue dog that we’d brought home from a local sanctuary when she was roughly six months old. We loved her immediately – she was smart, not to mention super cute. She had these huge ears that eventually she grew into. She never hurt anyone, always keen to play. Although she wasn’t too keen on the man who comes to read our water meter though lol. The sound of his motor scooter always had her rushing to the gate, barking like a mad dog!
Even though we still have Luna and three cats, the house is strangely empty without her and we’re all going to miss her terribly.
RIP Roxie. We love you <3
