It is with great sadness that we said goodbye to our beloved Tiber. Just at that moment when he had achieved the status of the sweetest of the sweet, in fact the perfect dog, he had to leave us.
We first met him when he was a day old and that day he captured our hearts. Today he took part of our hearts with him. Through the past 11 years he made us laugh and cry and every emotion in between. He was never an angel (till now). Protector of the family (even from family and friends we didn’t want to be guarded from), chaser of cats (even his own), raider of cat litter trays, stealer of all things edible (and sometimes not), chewer of doors and scraper of carpets, chaser of woodpigeons (have you caught one yet?), expert opener of baby gates and Christmas presents, mower-down of visitors, splasher of water, barker and howler extraordinaire.
For all that he was the most loyal, loving, funny and beautiful dog you could ever hope to share your life with. He was family, always there with his unbounded zest for life which he lived in the fast lane! He never judged you no matter what you did, said or looked like. He just gave you his love, licks or just a head to stroke or a gaze from his glorious brown eyes. Sometimes he would just lie next to you letting his soft presence comfort you. He knew when that was needed instinctively.
Rest well now our darling boy and thank you for being in our lives. You were a very special dog and we will always be with us in our hearts. Play well at the Rainbow Bridge Tiber x
