Curly fought a good fight against lymphoma and this early morning we helped him cross the rainbow bridge.

He woke me up around 1 AM gasping for air. I realized he was unable to lay down and breathe. He was disoriented and I knew he was done trying to fight.

He was 6 years, 10 months, 3 days old.

There were a lot of things that made him special...

He loved catch. We could grow a pea at him and he could catch it. He loved ball.

He loved cheese. A huge obsession. His favorite cheese was the stinkiest cheese you could find.

He loved babies and would follow them everywhere. He was truly a protector of all humans.

He loved cats way more than dogs. He had cat like behaviors - he even cleaned his face like a cat. We used to say he was trans-species.

He loved order and we nicknamed him the Kernel because of his OCD like behaviors.

We called him Bird because a Colonel is a Full bird and he also chirped like a bird at times

We called him Birdito, which changed into burrito.

He had a special call, called the Bird Call, which was the only way he would get out of bed...

He was our buddy and we are going to miss him immensely.

This thread is absolutely beautiful... I LOVE it (even though I'm in tears) and Curly was an amazing bully!!! My heart hurts for you and the family... I'm so very sorry for your loss. I'm glad you were able to help him cross over the rainbow bridge... and he is finally at peace.
RIP Curly :angelheart:

Castor and I think of you. I believe bulldog heaven is a place of perfect happiness and that Curly knows how much he is loved by you and your husband and other creatures close to him. In Swedish, there is a saying that children who are dearly loved carry many names, and that is certainly true for Curly. Thank you for sharing so much about Curly and his life.
