An Angel PawPrint On Adam's Heart
How I Became HAGEN’s Dog Dad:
Hagen was flown to me. As soon as I got him from the airline and took him out of his traveling crate, it was a moment of pure joy. I have a photo that captures it perfectly!
HAGEN’s Favorite Toys:
Nothing in particular, though Hagen did love to chew sticks!
HAGEN’s Favorite Places To Visit:
Our best times were in the outdoors. Hagen especially loved the snow.
My Special Connection With HAGEN:
Hagen loved me and he would look at me in that unique unconditional way; "You are my world and I adore you".
Saying Good Bye To HAGEN:
Too painful.
To HAGEN Across The Rainbow Bridge:
I talk to my boy Hagen ALL the time. But one of the most memorable things I ever said to him was the day I had to let him go. As it was being done, I held him and talked to him. The last thing I said to him was: "Next time we see each other, we will be together forever".

Words needn’t be spoken about the bond that was automatically created. He looks like he is sighing a sigh of relief and smiling.
As with all loss, we process and perceive it uniquely. While some may prefer not to speak of what they shared, others do and find great comfort in it. The most important thing is to be supportive of the person’s individual choice.
Thanks to Anneli for this lovely site. It’s hard to convey how precious my boy was to me. In hindsight, I probably could’ve written for hours about my beloved boy…but I guess less is more sometimes!
I just think I’m as lucky as can be to have had this incredible sweet loving creature as my companion. Never in my life have I known such love and affection for, and from, anything or anyone. I was a better person as his doggie-daddy than I have been in the entire rest of my life combined.
You are so welcome Adam. Yes, the times we shared with them could turn into endless books and there is truly no way to explain that incredible bond unless you have experienced it. And I am so happy you and Hagen had that, the love simply cannot be put into words and do it justice. But we know the truth in our hearts, where it will forever remain until you reunite again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful boy.
