This Life Ain't For Everybody

Dogs truly are man’s best friend! It’s amazing how close we get to our dogs. They instantly become part of our families and inner circles. We even sometimes think we can have conversations with them. They never judge us. They are always ready to go. And it’s hard to swallow when it’s time for them to go. To pass. To go where all dogs go, heaven. Picon was just this to Alex. His cornerstone. His rock! His best friend! We lost Picon, suddenly and surprisingly. It’s never easy and this one was extra tough because nobody was ready. Alex is candid and transparent in his delivery of just what this awesome fella meant to him. We miss you Picon and we will always talk about you!
