So I was reading the news and this article caught my eye.

Quote:Eleven-year-old Cole Hein has a very special relationship with his Jack Russell terrier: Bingo is his service dog. Cole has a potentially lethal form of apnea, a medical condition that causes him to sometimes stop breathing. Bingo, trained by Canada's National Service Dogs organization and the MSAR Search and Rescue Association, is certified as a hearing, medical service, and therapy dog. He's trained to alert people if Cole needs CPR.

Bingo has saved Cole 3 times in the last 6 months. Unfortunately, Bingo is dying. He has Canine Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome which gives him weeks to live.

So Cole made a bucket list for him. And it's just sweet of him to have done that for Bingo.
Thank you for this article! It's really sweet and I'm going to pass it around to a few people I know.

I wonder what bucket list would be for our cats. We all should be grateful for what we have and for the pets we share our lives with!
