Love Leaves A Memory

We have some heartbreaking news to share: last night, Cinnabon gained her angel wings.

Mere words cannot express the sorrow and sadness we feel; beautiful Cinnabon went into respiratory distress and sadly left this earth in Sanctuary mom’s arms on the way to the emergency vet.

Even when we know a dog is here in hospice, it is still one of the toughest phases we go through – and it never gets easier. Although we knew her time with us would be short, we never expected it to be this short and we are truly broken.

Cinnabon’s life was very important to us and in the few days that she was here in Sanctuary, she knew nothing but kindness, compassion and love.

She gifted us with her presence, smiled with her eyes, laughed with her tail and loved with all her heart. She would do a little dance when she was happy, barked with excitement while waiting for her meals, and enjoyed receiving attention and affection. When she realized that she was the most safe and loved she was able to let go and leave this earth with the dignity she deserved and not die alone in a shelter.

Cinnabon, you will always live on in our hearts – you were taken way too soon. We feel truly blessed that your beautiful spirit has touched our lives, our hearts and we were blessed to have known you.

Cinnabon left paw prints on everyone’s heart here at the Sanctuary and she is greatly missed.

To our dear friend, Michele Desanti, of Remember Me Rescue NY, thank you for believing this precious life mattered. Thank you for seeing Cinnabon deserved this second chance at life, arranging her arrival to our Sanctuary and giving us the opportunity to love, spoil and show her that not all humans are unkind.

Thank you to each and every one of you for your kindness, prayers and donations toward Cinnabons care. We truly could not do any of this without you.
