Yesterday Beethoven was put to rest.
First, we went to our favourite beach together one last time and he had his favourite treats.
Before the vet put the injection, he already had his eyes closed and we thought he had passed before she had done anything, that she actually checked his heartbeat.
His heartbeat was there but very low and we both agreed he was so ready to go.
By the time she put the injection it seemed he was already gone and I know he left very calmly and peacefully with full acceptance.
The way that he was ready to go really filled me with comfort. I am very grateful that his passing was designed in the most peaceful and kindest way for us both.
We had plenty of time to say goodbye, he wasn’t in severe pain, and thank fully I was back in the country with him when it all happened.
I have spent hours going through footage of the best years of my life shared with him and I could make a triology longer than the lord of the rings movies with all the videos I have of us and our adventures.
So, I have at least 5 memorial videos and this is the first one; Bini and Beethoven.
I will also make Beethoven and his human friends, Beethoven and his dog friends (he had more friends than I even do), Beethoven and our travel adventures all around Costa Rica and also the Best of Beethoven.
Call me a crazy obsessed dog mum if you wish, I can admit yes that is true.
One of the blessings from this, is we have been gifted with a MOUNTAIN of support from our friends and love pouring in for us from all across the globe.
I am doing well, at the sanctuary of la casa of Lola Bond and Dan Cadenhead with Wayra, Bella, Veronica Rivera and her family looking after me while I wait to receive Beethovens ashes to spread along the beach and place in some jewellery.
If you were a friend of Beethoven, or if your dog was then you or your dog maybe in the next upcoming memorial videos.
Making these videos has been a really positive way to grieve and reminisce on the incredible 3 years we had together.
Thank you everyone for your support and love ❤️🐶
