When Finn,a golden retriever (寻回犬),was diagnosed with a terminal cancer in May,his family decided to do something special to make his last days on earth brighter — and made a doggie bucket list.
Cynthia and Robert Peterson,who live in Burlington,Vermont,wanted to treasure his last days as part of their family.The family said that the idea was to “make him comfortable,make him happy and spoil him a little bit”.
They said the list is full of fun and includes everything that Finn would want to do.Finn has already completed over half of the ten activities on his bucket list and there is an exciting mixture of things he's set to do.Some of them are fairly regular dog activities like going for a hike,having a steak dinner,making a new friend and walking along the beach.There're also some more unusual activities like taking a hot air balloon ride,going apple picking and having a song written about him.
People on social media have found the sweet idea by Finn's family heartwarming.One person commented on the video,“An animal is so often more than a pet.The unconditional bond and love he provides are a reward in themselves.But this couple show their own love back for Finn ten times.” The family said that they think Finn has inspired others to live “more authentically”.
The family have appealed for help with his final bucket list activity.The family say they need help to have a children's book written about him.Cynthia and Robert are raising money for the book on their GoFundMe page.
