He was a very noble, affectionate, playful puppy and a great companion, a little angel who was by my side for 15 years, whom I miss every day, since we let him go to rest three months ago, you will always be in my heart my Baby Thoby . As I miss you, you will be playing with the other little angels in the rainbow. My cute puppy. I miss you a lot
