Always remembered

Tora

8/17/16

A life carried forward in memory.

Tora crossed the bridge yesterday (8/17/16). We (ARSF) pulled him out of the pound last year. He had signs of neglect. The owner forgot about him for 10 years, and suddenly decided to get rid of him. Why? Maybe they got a puppy and the dogs didn't get along? My heart aches, but it's OK. He deserved a piece of heart to take with him. I am just thankful that Dorie gave him a chance and time for me to mentally prepare before losing him.

Their steps remain with us

Every remembered life has a place here.

For the Akitas whose full stories were never written down, ARSF still carries their names forward.
