Remembering Yoshi

[J and Riley (and Luna)]

Tonight I have a heavy heart, my family dog Yoshi crossed the rainbow bridge after a wonderful full 18.5 years of life.

I think the best place to honour her memory is here - where I am among people who understand how much I loved her.

She was our first and only family dog.  To me she was my friend, my constant companion, my shadow.  We used to call her "velcro dog", because wherever we were... she was there.  She helped me through many hard times with her calming presence and warm snuggles.  She always stuck close by when someone was sick or upset, reassuring them with licks and nuzzles.

Bichon Frises were bred for their ability to do tricks, and she did not disappoint.  Yoshi was a very smart dog and did many tricks - but in typical Bichon Frise fashion, only did them if she felt like it.  She was a very fun dog and was always up for adventure, especially in her coveted big back yard.

Goodbye, Yoshi.  We will miss you.

Thinking of you.  18.5 years is a long time.  I hope I am lucky enough to have mine around that long.

18.5 years, Wow, you all were lucky to have such a sweet and adoring pup in Yoshi, and she was just as lucky ;)

It is hard to lose your best friend, especially one that has been around most of your life.  I am sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry J! Yoshi is a sweetheart. I'm so happy for him that he lived a long happy life surrounded by all the love a little doggie could ever ask for and more. She was a lucky girl!
