Cleo was a very special girl. She was my second papillon and my first AKC puppy. She was so intune with me and I bonded with her from the first moment I picked her up at 12 weeks old. She was great with my kids, was very adventurous and traveled all over the Western United States with us. She was great at reading my feelings and if I started having anxiety would climb up on my chest, then put her head on my shoulder, licking my neck. She would stay there until my anxiety attack passed.
She had 3 litters of puppies, which all went to wonderful homes. Aubrey, a puppy from Cleo’s final litter, became a successful seizure alert dog for a Veteran, learning to alert him by tugging on his pant leg, or sleeve, allowing him to call for help and lay down before a seizure happened. I’m still in contact with many of the puppy homes today and many are still living at 15-16 years old.
Cleo passed away May of 2022 from kidney/liver failure at 15.5 years old. She was humanely euthanized with our family around her.
“My beautiful girl has gone over the bridge. Cleopatra Queen of Denial Dec 12, 2006 – May 13, 2022. She was my best friend and my heart is literally broken. I thank Helen Angle for letting me love and adore this sweet girl. She was a spunky puppy with attitude and I loved it. She always had a smile on her face and was my heart dog for getting me through so many hard times. She was the mother to puppies who grew up to be therapy dogs, and a diabetic seizure alert dog. Cleo was the mother who befriended the rescues we brought home to rehab and rehome. She absolutely loved Arya and took her under her wing and mentored her to be an awesome dog like her. She loved everyone and everything. Even as her health declined, she still came to check on me, to make sure I was ok. She would still come sit with me when my anxiety acted up, even though she wasn’t feeling good. She was my hero and I’m so very thankful I was able to share so many precious years with her. I was sure her CHF or lung fibrosis would have been what took her, but over the last 2 months her kidneys started failing. We tried medication, but this last week she went into a fast decline and I couldn’t let her suffer in pain. Cleo literally grew up with my 4 kids who all loved her dearly. We are going to miss her soooo much but know she is happy running and pain free and we will get to see her again someday.”
