Gone but not forgotten

Today is a very sad day because my friend, Andy’s dog(Ryot) passed away. Ryot was a nice and lovely boy, even though for some reason, he seems to hate my boy. I’m not really good at writing stuffs like these, so I’m just gonna keep it short and simple.

Yesterday was the 13th Dogathon and a very hot day as well. After the outing at Dogathon, Ryot suddenly showed signs of heatstroke. He was rushed to the vet immediately but unfortunately did not survive.  I would like to take a few moments here to highlight the danger of heatstrokes in dogs. Heatstrokes in dogs are very serious and often could lead to fatality if not attended immediately. I would like to keep this short so more info could be found in these links:

And lastly, I’m not really good when it comes to comforting people, but I really wanna let you know that I’m truly sorry for what happened to Ryot. My deepest condolences to Andy, D. and Rusty.

RIP Ryot.
