My first baby turned 11 yesterday. We’ve got three dogs, but this boy will always hold a piece of my heart forever. He’s going a little blind, a little deaf (despite those massive ears 😂), and he snores loud enough to shake the whole house… but I love him more than words.
A little story about George 🤍
Back in 2022, we’d just had Kobs (whose middle name is George 🐾). At the time, I had George on premium pet insurance, but because he’d never really caused us any trouble, we dropped it down to basic cover while I was on maternity leave.
Ten days later, he developed aspiration pneumonia and put us through the most terrifying week of our lives. He actually died while at the vet, and they managed to bring him back. We were told his larynx was close to collapsing and that we should start thinking about saying goodbye.
The vet bills wiped out my life savings because the basic cover barely touched the sides… and honestly, he really shouldn’t still be here today.
But here he is, three years later — a little more grey, a little blind, a little deaf, but still the most handsome boy ever.
Happy 11 years of loving you, Georgie Boy 🤍
