Spartacus aka Sparky Has Passed

Sparky

It is with great sadness that I inform you of the passing of Spartacus, aka Sparky. He had been in declining health this past year.
We had gone to find a new friend after the passing of Jasmine. At the shelter, I saw this cute dog and had Laurie walk him. She liked him but wanted a female.
Laurie went back a week later to donate and saw that he was still there. She asked if he wanted to go home. He gave a positive sign and she adopted him. He was so happy. Especially when he could sleep with the humans.
That started 17 1/2 years of fun and sadness. He enjoyed his brothers and my late wife. He was a joy to be around. He will be missed.
Sparky was 18 1/2 years old.

    Paul, so sorry to hear about Sparky. It is amazing how deep into our hearts those furry little buggers can get. Take my advice: take some time to grieve, but then get another one. Although they can never replace the previous one, they help fill the hole in your heart.

    Sparky had for sure the best home he could find. Not an expert but think 18 1/2 dog years almost equals a human century.

    Sorry to hear that Sparky has passed, pets are part of the family and when they go it is always hard to take, he had a long and very happy life and you can’t ask for more than that.
