2/5/26 — the best 3.5 years we have had was with you
@lola_mcnugget 🤍
Dear Lola,
Thank you for choosing us. Having you as part of our family has been one of the greatest joys of my life.
I still remember the very first time we met you. You were calm, sweet, and curious. Bringing you home from the shelter, where you spent 6.5 years at, as a surprise for the family feels like just yesterday. Over the past 3.5 years, 14LR has never been a happier or warmer place for anyone who walked through our doors. You greeted everyone with that gentle smile.
The days we spent going on adventures — swims, beach days, café runs, and visits to the dog park — will always be cherished memories. But it’s the simple, everyday routines that I hold closest to my heart. You were our dear girl, always seeking pats and treats, finding joy in the smallest moments. Our night walks together were our quiet, special time. You were such a sweet and protective soul — whenever we joked around and pretended to hit each other, you would step right in between us to defend.
You were gentle, sensitive, and thoughtful, even until the very end. When we were faced with the hardest decision, you waited until all of us had said our goodbyes… and then you let go on your own. This is truly you, Lola.
Thank you for being such a gentle and loving part of our lives. Your presence made our home feel safer, softer, and full of warmth. We will always remember you coming up to us, sitting quietly by our side, and looking at us with that soft smile that made everything feel okay.
You brought comfort, joy, and love in its purest form. You were kind, protective, and endlessly sweet. I wish we had more time with you. Now there is a void in our hearts, and the spaces where you used to be feel painfully empty. But in time, we will learn to carry this loss with love.
These 3.5 years with you have been nothing short of a blessing. We are so grateful for every single moment. You are truly God’s gift to us, and you will always be a part of who we are.
Run free, our sweet girl. We will see you again in heaven 🤍
We love you, always.
