On October 10, 2020 our precious Astro found us. My wife and I were walking in the neighborhood during the Covid Era when a dog saw us and started following us all the way home. She kept telling me “Don’t look back.” Check out We had him for almost five years.
On Monday, September 22, Astro and I were taking our evening walk as we did for almost five years. We’d walk in the morning and evening. As we were on our walk two pit bulls come from behind us and starts attacking Astro. I’m doing all I can do to get the dogs off of him. He escaped twice from them. We had to put him down two days later due to the injuries. I still have class the attack. It hurts to think about it.
I still cannot believe he’s gone but what a beautiful gift from God he was. Happy “Found Us Day” Astro. We all miss and love him so much.
