And for genuine animal lovers, they are much more than just companionship; they are special beings who come to offer us unconditional love and commitment.
Beings who frequently have a higher status in our life than some members of our family.

Unfortunately, they are not immortal, and for various reasons, such as health or advanced age, it is time to say goodbye. We all wish to escape this sight, yet it is a reality that we must confront.
Gilberto Rodriguez recently had to say goodbye to his husky after 12 years of sharing happy and unforgettable moments.
The husky entered the young man’s life as a puppy.

To accomplish this, the young man created an emotional video in which he shared images of himself with the puppy from when he was a puppy until now.
Gilberto gave a few final words to his precious ball of hair; in the midst of his anguish and pain, the young man could not stop sobbing as he spoke.

“What a wealthy fantasy, Dad. “Have you had a chance to relax, handsome?” With a sorrowful grin and tears in her eyes, she is heard saying. In the midst of his grief, the young man thanked the puppy for all of the times they spent together, and she, of course, told him how much she loved him and how much he meant to him. He stated in this regard:
“Thank you, papa, thank you.” I’ve been in love with you since you moved in… I know you loved me as well.”

Users on social media were captivated by this heartbreaking moment. It has over 8 million views, over 1.5 million “likes,” and over 40,000 comments since it was launched. People from all around the world came together to offer their sympathies; many associated with his past and remembered their own pets.

“Without a doubt, a great pain, how wonderful that you accompanied him until his last breath.” “It pierced my heart, and I never want that day to arrive.” “You must be strong; I know precisely how you feel.” “I too witnessed mine fall asleep, and I’ve had it since I was a puppy, just like you.” It’s heartbreaking to say goodbye to life’s most genuine love.” “I can only image how much anguish that young man must be feeling; puppies are a part of our family, and the unconditional love they provide us is priceless.” I join his sentiments for his pet’s departure; God has a nice place for all of them because they provide a lot of love.”
Gilberto notes that he never envisaged the support he would receive after the tsunami of good comments and the rapid response of Internet users to this poignant narrative, and that it was not his plan, but that of his puppy, for this to happen.
“It was not my plan, but my shorty’s, since many people went and cuddled their puppies.” Many people place a higher value on them. Many people recall his puppies. It was certainly his plan, therefore I apologize.”
