Incredibly sorry to hear of your loss, but at least Piper isn’t suffering anymore. I love my dog dearly, and I know it will tear me up when his time comes.
Just so everyone knows, Piper was not my dog. A couple of the replies made me think I had somehow given that impression. I just had seen his story a few times over the past couple years and thought he was a cool dog and enjoyed watching videos of him doing his job. When I read of his passing, I just felt compelled to share.
We do much of the airline service into TVC. If you sent his handler a message on Facebook he’d even be there, schedule permitting, to meet your flight when you arrived. It’ll be sad no longer seeing Piper running around chasing the FOD with wings.
