10. Eat Cheetos

11. Sunbath at the lake

12. Bacon I love you

LAST UPDATE: July 30th 8:46pm

I was cooking some chicken for Mocha this afternoon, Mocha came by and slept on my foot. I gave him a neck massage as usual, he took his last breath after several minutes. I held him in my arms for 2 hours, waited for my wife to come home. All the family members said their goodbyes.

It was peaceful, his eyes were open, with a smile on his face. I'm happy that his last moment was spent with me, it was all I ever prayed for.

I am lost for words right now, forgive me for taking some time off. Thank you for allowing me to share his stories with you.

The update continues on another thread... Aug 1st 5:58pm

Thank you so much for all your messages, our phones were beeping non stop from notifications. Your words brought tears to our eyes and we are filled with love.

I took Vienna to the vet yesterday, the cytology result came back today, she also has stage 5 Lymphoma. So this thread will continues and I'm starting another bucket list for Vienna as well.

Oh Teddy is so jealous at #6! He just gets a crust or two but never a whole slice. :)

#1 on our boys list would be.......go to the lake and find the biggest pile of goose poop, roll and roll and NOT get yelled at.

Poopdeck loves to shred cardboard, business cards, egg crates. So every once in awhile I give him something of his own to shred! P/S the picture is grand.

Our guys like to go raspberry/blueberry picking in the fields in the summer. The weather is nice, and the fresh berries are good and yummy and sweet. I love the family portrait. You guys are awesome.

So I have another thing to add ... since Corgis are probably blowing their coats now (well depends on where you are)... but Pazu is shedding like mad!

Mocha's shedding fur stuffed into a pillow with Mocha imprint on top :)

(I wonder if I could collect enough fur over a lifetime to make a Corgi down comforter...)
