On January 5, 2023, my wife and I decided to put our dog Gringo down. He fought a good fight against Lyme Disease and old age, but it was time. In 3 Life Lessons from my Alpha Dog Gringo | Foundations Friday 79, I’m sharing three life lessons I’ll carry with me that Gringo taught me.
This is never easy. We’ve had to make this decision twice before, and each time it broke our hearts. Gringo was a true Alpha Dog. He loved humans and set the tone around other dogs.

- 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔
- 𝑲𝒆𝒆𝒑 𝒖𝒑 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕
Godspeed and RIP Gringo. We know you’re leading the pack in Heaven.
