It is with a very heavy heart that our family had to say goodbye to Toby Friday July 8. He went over the rainbow bridge after an almost year long battle with Cushings disease and cancer. He quickly went into remission but a huge abdominal mass snuck up on him and it did not respond to treatment. Toby fought hard until the end and was a trooper but he stopped eating and it was time to let go. He was our big teddy bear!!
He would be so excited and run towards you like a bull in a china shop but then stop short and lick you to pieces!! Shower done!! He was a true gentle giant! His best buddy was a little 10lb furbaby down the block named Emily and her little sister named Gracie. He got to say goodbye to them today before we left for the vet as they just happened to be walking by around 8am...that was God lining up his last day to be just right. He had a good couple of last weeks; long walks, a trip to the dog park and swimming in the lake.
We are going to terribly miss our big Chocolate Chesapeake, but he's hanging out at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for us and we will see him again soon. His til wagged until the absolute last second.
Thank you mostly for the extremely generous funding the Riedel and Cody Fund provided.in addition to the well wishes and words of encouragement during this hard time. This granted us an additional year with our child Toby to spend with him. .
Forever gratefully,
The Ericksens
