To our dearest boy Elroy,
It’s unbelievable to think that we will never get to cuddle with you on the couch in an ‘Elroy nook’, or hear your excited ‘awrauw’ when we get home ever again. Your love for us and your twin sister Toffee was undeniable.
We’ll miss the little tippy tappys down the hallway and watching your excited trot. We’ll think of you every time we see a paw print in the sand, you loved the beach so much. We’ll think of you every time we go to your favourite oval, you always did love a good ‘splore’. Even the ducks at the wetlands will miss seeing you get excited when you see them (although they were always glad you were on a lead!)
Although we got to spend over 13 and a half years with you, it will never be enough - all dogs should live forever. You didn’t deserve to feel unwell like you did at the end and the decision to let you go peacefully was the hardest decision we’ve ever had to make, but we know it was the right one. You are no longer in pain. You are free now.
We’ll continue to look after and spoil your twin shadow Toffee, who is grieving in her own way right now.
We love you Elroy. You were the bestest boy who ever Roy’d. And we’ll think of you every single day for the rest of our lives.
To Elroy, Roy, Roy Boy, Mr Roy, Eroo, Button Eyes, Sir Sits-A-Lot, we love you forever. 💔🐾
