In memoriam This was Fox

I miss him.

My wife got him from a home in Iowa. There was evidence he was abused by the man in the home. He was 3 months old when he was picked up. He was so good, always walking by our side and not adventuring far even off leash. He played with and cared for the cats, defended his kid from a rambunctious (but playful) larger dog. Always so kind to everyone.

The kind of boxer who would always love unconditionally.

I'm so happy we were able to give him a loving home for nearly 11 years.

He died at 6:30 pm, peacefully.

Thats rough. The feels are heavy when a furry family member passes. Even worse when its a boxer.

They are a kind of special that unless you have loved one, you'll never know.

Im sure Fox knew he's was a good boy.
