With only 4 months y.o. and living in an apartment I discovered Boris suffered from a knee misplacement. And being an English Bulldog he would have problems as growing and getting heavier.
After many vets consults it was stated the he needed to take 4 hours sunbath daily. And I should have a yard. So I went looking
for a house to move in.
I found the house and in weeks Boris got better…
And here he lived a happy life. But it was not so easy for me, alone and unemployed. After months feeding him in the mouth by a spoon because he felt pain in the knees was difficult to change that behavior later. So this was the way he was feed until the end.
By 5 years old Boris weight was 91 pounds (41kg) with a hard breathing condition but very strong, energetic, demanding still went two times a day for walks in the streets.
But one night I saw in desperation that is it…
Too much agony to breath for only one beloved body…
So heavy he was and, me alone, could not carry him to the car… and no vet would come to my house to calm down our pain…
Praying out loud, crying and hoping… I saw him abandoning his effortless tries to breath and slowly lying down on the his sofa…
Closing his eyes he took my happiness away…
Now this house, his house is gigantic,
in silence but full of
his presence and memories…
My baby is gone and I never needed so much to believe that there is a very special heaven for him to be and hope he forgives me
for my mistakes…
Boris, my baby, forever my baby!…
Cada um na sua caminha…
Bebe, te amo, gordinho...
