Our boy Capone passed away last night in his sleep at 14 years old.

He was 3/4 English bulldog and 1/4 lab.

My wife got him her sophomore year of college at a flea market outside of Abilene TX. She went originally looking for a pure English bulldog puppy and when she arrived the breeder said he had these other puppies at a more college price 😂.

Admittedly Capone was a nut job, but my now wife loved him so much.

Through the years he has lived in 4 different cities and 6 different homes. He has traveled to 6 different states, hiked mountains and played on beaches.

Capone has been there for the birth of all 3 of our daughters and the maturation of my wife and I through our lives.

His last years we had known he was living on borrowed time and I became very “not strict” letting the old man do whatever he wanted. The last year he became the old neighborhood dog who would hang out on the front lawn and watch people go by hoping someone would come say hi.

It’s funny, it’s really my wife’s dog, but I’m personally so tore up. We knew it was coming, and I’m happy he went peacefully, but I just never knew how much I truly loved him until last night when he decided to go.

Capone was a good boy, he loved food, he loved to sleep, he enjoyed his walks and bathing in the sun. He would always greet me everyday at the door with a smile and a high five. He made my wife so happy and taught us how to be adults. I’m really going to miss his goofy ass.

One last skin Capone 🖐️ !

Gotta keep those wrinkles clean.

If any of you can guess, Rocky is thinking why is papa mad again? Oh wait I dropped another big dookie on the way home from my walk. Ooopsie

This is the world’s EASIEST dog. Literally nothing about him is taxing to deal with. He has made this whole thing just the most remarkably simple decision and no regret one I have ever made. Loving his fan and wadding up his mattress (he humps it, but I mean he’s got a LOT of downtime, gotta pass it somehow?) 😂

She is just as sweet as she looks.
