Lost a piece of me 💔 03.16.2026

My soul dog. Anyone who knows me, knows Kingy. I got King as a gift in college when I was living on my own for the first time, and from that moment on, it was always us. When I met him freshman year, he was already named “King,” and I used to visit him every day. Before he was even mine, it felt meant to be. From Indiana to California, through every high, low, move, and new chapter, King was there. We relied on each other for everything.

He made me the happiest girl in the world, and my heart aches so deeply now that he’s gone. There’s a quiet emptiness nothing else can fill. I miss his smile, his perfect heart-shaped head, and his unwavering happy, loving personality. He had a way of making everyone feel good just by being around him. He was pure love.

He was my boy, my comfort, my constant, my best friend. He had a whole community who loved him so deeply and was with me through some of the most important years of my life.

After being diagnosed with terminal lymphoma in January, my baby was given a few weeks to live, but fought hard for 3 months and had a smile on his face til the very end. 

On his last day, we took him to the beach in Del Mar. Even though he had been struggling, he surprised us
and started walking “trotting” as we liked to call it, along the beach and of course, stopped to sniff everyone and everything. It was just Cameron and I on the beach with him at this point, when he ran up to two boys playing soccer. I hadn’t seen king get the zoomies or play like this in days. He turned into a puppy again! Those sweet strangers had no idea the joy they brought to Cameron and I when they asked if they could play with Kingy. What a blessing it was to see him so happy and truly himself on his last day. I would do it all over again just to have more time with him. 

I hope he knew how deeply he was loved every single day. Life won’t ever feel the same without you Kingy, and I’ve never felt this heartbroken before, but I’ll carry you with me in everything I do. I love you forever and ever, my handsome boy ❤️🐾
