Today is one of the hardest days we've had at St Bernard's hotel 😞💔
With broken hearts, we share that our beloved Cooper has passed away.
After retiring at the end of last year, Cooper spent his retirement exactly where he belonged- with one of our managers, Vikki (his favourite person).
He was spoiled every day, surrounded by love, and we couldn't have wished for a better retirement for him.
Earlier this year, Cooper was diagnosed with aggressive bone cancer.
Today, Vikki made the heartbreaking decision to let him go.
At 1:21pm today, Cooper grew his wings and drifted off to sleep in Vikki's arms, surrounded by the love of our staff.
Thank you Cooper for 6 of the best years.
How lucky we were to have been loved by you. 🥺
Run free now, our sweet boy.
Eat all the roast chickens, swim in every creek, and know that you will be loved and missed every single day.
We hope Syrah was waiting for you on the other side 🤍
Forever our boy. Forever in our hearts. 🤍🐾
