So yesterday (3/17) was a very sad day for us. It was time to say goodbye to our beloved Cobi. Cobi would have been 12 on June 17th this year. We will miss him terribly. He was always such a trooper and such a tough little guy, dealing with epilepsy for about 9 years and then recently degenerative disk disease which took the use of his back legs from him, but he plugged along with the use of a wheeled cart for outside and scooting wherever he needed to go inside. Then about 6 weeks ago we started to notice a change in him and he started having more difficulties getting around in the house and his attitude was changing, he seemed depressed. So then these past 2 weeks it was getting progressively worse where he wouldn't even scoot in the house, sleeping 95% of the time and not being able to support his front end either when he was in his cart. He just looked at us with those sad eyes, seeming to say to us..... "you guys I'm just so tired".

So Cobi is up in doggy heaven playing fetch with his favorite tennis ball, running pain free with no wheels, and bossing everyone around as corgis love to do. I am cying as I am writing this, as I am sure all of you know. The house is so empty without you, Love you Cobi.

I have a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes as well, my heart aches for you all. The love you have for Cobi will be everlasting. The grief will dim and the sweet memories will grow brighter in time. You knew when the time was right and put Cobi first over your own wants and wishes. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am always touched when I see a corgi on wheels -- it shows the love that is there.
I guess they don't need the wheels anymore at the Rainbow Bridge, you think?
