Bo Jangles
Bo Jangles: Our sweet 15-year-old Bo Jangles passed in his sleep sometime after midnight on 23 June 2023.Our veterinarian had detected low levels of inflammation, likely indicative of cancer. And it looks like Mina knew all along! But we didn’t understand that her persistent licking of Bo’s back was a medical alert. Bo joined the Leashes End family in late March 2023, accompanied by a bonded senior lady named Mina. Both pups had had been dumped at the Allegany County Shelter in the dead of night! Bo was a blind & deaf chonker (possible Shih Tzu) & Mina is a 12-year-old brindle mix. Mina & Bo were as bonded as could be! Mina spent the night after Bo passed sleeping on my pillow by my head. FOACASMD.org had pulled these pups from the shelter and asked us if we would give them a home. Bo was a classic senior: he spent most of the day snoozing with relief and food/water intermissions to break up the marathon napping. Mina is very alert and active and loves romping with the pack! She sticks extra close to me now and I’ve also noticed her spreading her protective aegis over our other senior dogs. RIP, Bo. May your memory be a blessing.
