My sweet, loving baby boy recently passed away on April 20th, 2023. If you’re anything like me, you know that losing an animal is one of the hardest things that life can throw at you. So, here’s my sweet boy’s story. I received Bentley on September 22nd, 2016. He was my birthday present. Not only my present, but my best friend. I had begged and begged for a puppy, a yorkie to be specific, but I love all dogs no matter what kind. When I saw him for the first time, I cried. I was so happy, and I would do anything to go back and experience it one more time. Bentley had previous owners, but he was too much work. This will make more sense later on…after a year with Bentley, and him only being around 4 years of age, he got a life-threatening disease known as myasthenia gravis. This was scary for me, a 10-year-old little girl. He wouldn’t eat, wouldn’t drink, his body shut down completely and he couldn’t move. I thought I had to say goodbye. I was heartbroken. We tried everything and had to make a decision on what we should do. Everything changed on a Friday night though, when our local vet, had given him a special medication. Bentley then began walking, drinking, and his body started to work. It was a miracle. This vet saved his life. Ever since that day, Bentley had to have a certain medication 2 times a day in order for him to stay alive. The vets called Bentley “the most expensive dog in Ruby valley” for obvious reasons. That didn’t stop us from keeping him alive though. The memories I made with this 5-pound little dog will forever be my favorites. He changed my life. He saved me. He was my family, my whole heart. And he still is even today. Words can’t describe how much I miss him, and I shed a tear every day I look over at his bed that hasn’t moved since he passed away. I listen to Beyoncé every day for you, since that was your favorite artist. I miss our car rides, our walks, our tv time together, (our favorite show was dance moms), and so much more. But If I were to give all of the memories I shared with him, this paper would go on forever. So, I hope that his story was enough to make you smile. And to my sweet boy, I miss you endlessly. I hope that you are healthy and happy up in heaven.
