Saying goodbye is always tough. It usually means the end of a valued moment. Maybe it’s the finish of an enjoyable experience or the conclusion of a, not so pleasant, life event.

So, how do we say goodbye to a dear loved one or a long-time friend? Might it be with a big hug and a kiss, or maybe a tender pat on the back? Whatever form of affection you choose, the goal is to leave that person with a sense of value and the security of knowing that you will connect, again, at a later point in time.

Sadly, too many orphaned animals never experienced an appropriate “goodbye.“ Intentionally left to make it on their own in the streets, abandoned in residences, passed from owner to owner, or deserted on the end of a chain, these are all, too familiar, scenarios experienced by domestic pets in our communities. We can only wonder what these innocent animals might be thinking as they watch their trusted caregivers walk away, open a car door or turn them out of the house with no intention of retrieving them.

Paco is not a throwaway, but none of them are. This sweet boy was rescued from an animal control facility and awaits his forever home and family. At approximately three years of age, his new family will enjoy many years of entertainment and fun. Beagles are known for their kindness, and loyalty, and this boy meets the definition. Easily handled, loving and eager to please, Paco thrives on human touch. With you is exactly where he wants to be.

Though we can only speculate on the details of his past, we know this is our opportunity to give him a loving and healthy future. Might you want to be part of his plan?
