Lucky 7

 Lucky 7 passed away a few months ago- It was so heartbreaking that I didn't even want to write about it-

Lucky was a Dogo Argentino in every sense of the word- My friend JC rescued him off the streets of West Palm beach as a pup- We aren't sure what his life was like up until that point but it probably wasn't that good- Lucky helped JC during his devastating heat strokes and was a loyal and reliable service dog- Most other people would have given up on Lucky many times before but not JC he stuck with that dog through thick and thin- Dogos are not for the feint of heart- When I had some mentally and emotionally draining events transpire with  Brutie and Skylar taking care of Lucky was one of the only things that helped carry me through-

The great thing about dogs is that they keep you in your routine and are one of if not the best kind of therapy for both dog and owner- My heart sank and broke into a million pieces when JC told me Lucky 7 passed away- Lucky was around 12/13- Duke is 14 and is grateful for that because he has had 9 lives and  had so many close calls over the years- Just the other day chasing a rabbit in a golf trench had him limping- I thought that was the beginning of the end for Dukie- He bounced back and is now still trotting along-

Dogs are resilient and fierce warriors- I lost count on the number of tussles I witnessed convinced there were going to be severe injuries just to find out there were only minor if any at all (some were serious)  Lucky 7 fit in this category on top of the Apex warrior chain- They mixed a plethora of warrior dogs all into one and that's how the Dogo was created- Dogs are loyal and beautiful- Fierce when needed and if the bad guy comes into your house with evil intent if he dies he dies- Power and Lucky went at it one day for the second time in 24 hours and I protected Lucky as if his life depended on it because it did- Lucky 7 will forever be in my heart and soul-
