Koko s’en est allé…

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

It is with immense sadness that I write these words, not even fully realizing that you will never be here again... My Koko, I still remember the day you arrived at the shelter, of the woman who brought you with amazing explanations. Indeed, you were not an easy dog, but you had to be understood and accepted for your strong character. Over time, you trusted us, but it was not always easy to care for you. When the veterinarian entered the refuge, you immediately recognized his voice and started barking and growling... But with us, you were the gentlest of dogs. How can I forget your head resting on my neck, in the evening before bed and your shampoo scent... My lipstick marks on your forehead always indicated that I had come to see you. Of course there were safety rules, not everyone could approach you at once. People should really learn to handle a dog before acquiring one... We welcomed you, understood you, accepted you and deeply and sincerely loved you. We were your family and we were until the end. In November, you started to feel very ill and an echo revealed a CMD, the treatment boosted you. Keeping up with your pace was not always easy, but we managed. The infrared sessions relieved your arthritis. And everything returned to normal thanks to your magical pillbox. You shredded your memory foam mattress to prove you were getting better, then a second mattress... In January, to our greatest happiness, you celebrated your 14th birthday. But suddenly last Sunday you had a stroke. You were immediately taken to the emergency room, and we all believed a new miracle would happen. We were able to bring you back to the refuge. You ate well, you got tired of chicken, it didn't matter, you loved your steaks to our greatest joy. For a week we fought with you, so you could walk again. What joy to see you wagging your tail when I arrived on Wednesday morning. You had to be lifted, helped and we did it gladly for you, my Koko. What joy to feel your heartbeat, to see how happy you were to eat treats, the infrared sessions helped you. On Friday you didn't want much, a slice of ham and a box of id. On Saturday morning you refused everything, medication, food and treats. You were taken to the veterinarian and a battery of tests, all more negative than the previous ones, arrived. It was so hard to hear those results. You left us with our tears and kisses, my Aiko. Life at the refuge without you will never be the same, my Aiko, my Koko, Coconuts... We love you and will never forget you.

c’est avec une immense tristesse que j’écris ces mots, sans même réaliser pleinement qu’il ne sera plus jamais là… Mon Koko, je me souviens encore du jour de ton arrivée au refuge, de la femme qui t’avait amené en donnant des explications hallucinantes. Certes, tu n’étais pas un chien facile, mais il fallait te comprendre et accepter ton fort caractère. Au fil du temps, tu nous as fait confiance, mais il n’était pas toujours évident de te soigner. Lorsque le vétérinaire franchissait la porte du Refuge, tu reconnaissais immédiatement sa voix et te mettait à aboyer et grogner… Mais avec nous, tu étais le plus doux des chiens. Comment oublier ta tête posée dans mon cou, le soir au moment du coucher et ton odeur de shampooing…mes traces de rouge à lèvres sur ton front indiquaient toujours que j’étais passer te voir. Bien sûr il y avait des règles de sécurité, tout le monde ne pouvait pas t’approcher en même temps. Les humains devraient réellement apprendre à gérer un chien avant d’en acquérir un… Nous t’avons accueilli, compris, accepté et profondément et sincèrement aimé. Nous étions ta famille et l’avons été jusqu’au bout. En novembre, tu as commencé à être très mal et une écho a révélé une cmd, le traitement t’a boosté . Prendre ton rythme n’était pas toujours de tout repos, mais nous gérions. Les séances d’infrarouges ont soulagé ton arthrose. Et tout était rentré dans l’ordre grâce à ton pillulier magique. Tu as déchiqueté ton matelas à mémoire de forme pour nous prouver que tu allais mieux, puis un second matelas… En janvier, pour notre plus grand bonheur, tu as fêté tes 14 ans. Mais subitement dimanche dernier tu as fait un AVC. Tu as été immédiatement conduit aux urgences, et nous avons tous cru qu’un nouveau miracle allait se produire. Nous avons pu te ramener au refuge. Tu mangeais bien, tu t’es lassé du poulet, peu importe, tu as adoré tes steaks pour notre plus grand bonheur. Depuis une semaine nous luttions avec toi, pour que tu remarches. Quel bonheur de te voir remuer la queue à mon arrivée mercredi matin. Il fallait te soulever, t’aider et nous le faisions avec plaisir pour toi mon Koko. Quel bonheur de te sentir battant, de voir comment tu étais heureux de manger des friandises, les séances d’infrarouges t’aidaient. Vendredi tu n’as pas voulu grand chose, une tranche de jambon et une boîte d’id. Samedi matin tu as tout refusé, médicaments, nourriture et friandises. Tu as été conduit chez le vétérinaire et une batterie d’examens tous plus négatifs les uns que les autres sont arrivés. Comme il était dur d’entendre ces résultats. Tu es parti sous nos larmes et nos baisers mon Aïko. La vie au refuge sans toi ne sera plus jamais la même mon Aïko, mon Koko, Coconuts… Nous t’aimons et ne t’oublierons jamais.

About Koko s’en est allé…

What life with Koko s’en est allé… looks like

Koko s’en est allé… is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Animaux sans Foyer in Montgeron.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.
