Piper lost her big brother Elliot today.
Rest in Peace Elliot. 10/2/2015-8/19/2026
Nine months ago I sat here writing about the huge loss of our baby girl Kyte and now I sit here writing the same about our boy Elliot. Many times in my love and compassion for him did I say how proud I was to his deaf ears. He was born a hearing dog, and due to allergy complications and a major surgery at three he lost his hearing. We spent the next year in specialists and almost lost him another few times. I have slept for weeks on the floor in recovery with him. I have given him breathing treatments and listened to his sweet breathing all night every night for years just to be sure he was still alive. He taught us so many things. He was tenacious, brave, resilient, an amazing little brother and new big brother. He was a clown and made us laugh until we cried and there wasn’t a food he didn’t love. Elliot was meant for us. He lived a long beautiful life and will be missed forever and ever. Piper who was there for his passing was licking him to wake him up. It was soul crushing to witness such loss. Right before the vet arrived we had a deer visitor. They got one last moment together. He has now joined his big sister and we will grieve his loss and love displaced. Hug your babies close tonight. Rest in Peace Elliot. 10/2/2015 - 8/19/2026🌈🐶❤️🩹
