Farewell My Sweet Boy!
Let me tell you a story, the story of Pinginin Roberto... aka Chopo.
Once upon a time there was a little chihuahua named Pinginin Roberto. I didn't liked his name much so I started to call him Chopo. The tiny chihuahua was curious, funny and lovely and he earned the love of everyone in the family.
He got scared easily but he acted all "macho" in front of big dogs. Barking and acting like a badass pitbull. It was funny he was afraid of mosquitos but not of huge scary dogs!
He had big doggie lips and he was always making funny expressions. Always playing and doing doggie tantrums when he didn't got what he wanted.
He always had cold even tho we live at the Caribbean and its hot as hell. So most of the times he had clothes. His favorite color was red and he was the one who always chose his clothes.
His favorite hobby was sleeping. He slept like a hibernating bear! His favorite sleeping pose was with his private parts free ahahaha
He totally hated pants and who can blame him?! Pants can be uncomfortable sometimes!
For 12 years he was always there for us, giving us unconditional love. Always present in every single thing....
...being the party doggie...
....the nurse...
...the bodyguard...
... the content inspector...
... the joker...
... Santa's lil' helper...
But the most important thing... the soul of the house! A year ago he got blind and then cancer... We couldn't do anything to help him. Treatment was too expensive and on top of that the cancer was in his brain so there wasn't anything we could do for him. On September 30 he died. It was one of the most painful days in my life. It still hurts.... but I know he's not suffering anymore. His death reminded me my grandma's death, she died of cancer too. A part of me died with them. For a time all lost importance, there was (and still is) a huge hole in my heart. It is funny how pets become such an important part of our lives. Their love is so pure, unconditional and refreshing.
So I will keep taking my time to get used to not have part of my heart with me. My steemit vacations will continue. I will keep focusing in really important things, filling my heart with pretty things, feeding my head with happy thoughts and doing the changes I need in my life.
Chopo will never going to be replaced. He's unreplaceable, unforgettable, unique and deeply loved. Thanks to all the people who show their concerns about me not being around and to the people who gave me their condolences in facebook.
Farewell dear Chopo! You will always be in our hearts!
All the pics in this post were taken from my facebook.
I'm so sorry. He was absolutely adorable, and his eyes were so bright. One of mine is getting very old, and I know the day is coming. I just keep pushing it from mind. I hope you find all you need on your continued vacation.
Thanks! Hope your doggies lives a long happy life!
Gracias
I'm so sorry! Losing a dog is often more difficult than losing a human, and Chopo looks like he was very special. I wish you a speedy return to joy.
Thanks! He was a special doggie

@blacklux I am happy and I am very sad. The happy is because I was worried about you not posting and wondering if you were ok. I am very, very, very sad for your loss of Chopo I know the pain you feel and I know with time it will get easier but the emptiness stays. You have great memories, always keep him in your heart.
Is true, the emptiness stay.... Hope all is fine with you!
My condolences. I have lost many family members (I can't think of them as pets) in my life, the genuine love and appreciation they have is a gift few things can equal.
Thanks! Love is love no matter where it comes from :)
I love all the photos of Chopo, and am sure they have all been chosen very carefully by someone who loved him dearly... 🧡 From all you have described, Chopo is one with a big heart and wanted to be the bodyguard to his human!
I love the first shot! And big doggie lip Chopo, the bodyguard Chopo... but every shot shows a facet of him very well... You are right - our pets are like family and take a lil piece of our hearts away with them, and life isn't the same after they go...
They are irreplaceable! He will be forever in my heart! :)
😌💖🥰
Un bonito homenaje a Chopo y un gran recuerdo donde nos muestras aquellos grandes momentos pasados a su lado.
Chopo era un exito de amigo!
Claro que sí, por eso hay que quedarse siempre con esos buenos momentos y el mejor de los recuerdos.
I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I have a few pieces missing from my heart as well, and although you can't get that piece back, I hope the empty place heals over soon. I am sending you hugs across all the miles.
Thanks! I'm trying to fill the hole but it seems it will be impossible, so I'm just decorating it with happy stuff.
