Dakota

A Tribute

Dakota

2005-2016

We said our goodbyes to Dakota on September 6, as a fast-moving and inoperable tumor had invaded her vena cava vein and started blocking the return of blood to her heart. We were fortunate to have some warning and enjoyed several days together living and loving.

This is a tribute to her life and the many people she touched. Somewhere there is a wedding album with her picture with the bridal party in Carmel, and she’s a star online in an asian tourist’s video at Old Faithful in Yellowstone Park. She was a “calendar girl” for an animal rescue in Pleasanton, and was seen in pictures with Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

Thank you for bringing us your unconditional love.

Big sister I miss you! I remember the day we met in the park. You came running up and greeted me while I was on a walk. That was the first time my mom and dad let me off the lease. We ran and played together. We didn't care weather it was hot or cold. We would rest side by side when we were tired. Sitting side by side and sharing cookies was fun too.. It was fun playing with you 3 times a week. As years went on we didn't play quite as hard but we always enjoyed being with each other. It was great when you taught me how to get into the pool and splash at your house. You were very nice and shared all your toys too. The last time I saw you I nuzzled you and tugged at your ears (like I always did) but you wouldn't respond. You were the best sister any dog could have! Luv Ya
