This amazingly bold Labrador Retriever, Pepsi, resides in Hong Kong with his owner, Portia. Since a very young age at 2 years old, Pepsi was diagnosed with lymph cancer 淋巴癌. Pepsi didn't want to give up his life. Neither did Portia. Portia sent Pepsi to the vet to undergo chemotherapy. He was the first dog to have undergone a chemotherapy treatment and it was a success despite the long suffering journey. The determination of both of them had extended Pepsi's life until today and he is now 14 years of age, which is equivalent to 98 homo sapiens years. I could not imagine how tough the journey was for both the dog and owner.
Now that the cancer strikes Pepsi for the third time over the past 12 years, he's now unable to walk or move around freely like he used to be. He could only lie on the floor, waiting to be fed while Portia tried her very best to stay at home most of the time to accompany Pepsi together with Pepsi's elder brother, Leo. I believe the time is coming to an end for Pepsi but whatever it takes, it's the process that matters. He is SO lucky to have an owner who is willing to spend tens of thousands on him regardless that he is only a dog. It's the love that the owner showered upon him that extended his life.
At this point, I would like to wish them the best to come.
*The reason why i wanna share this post is that I, for once, had a very very beautiful Labrador Retriever that for a very very reluctant reason, i had to give him away. For such a beautiful dog, i did not want any money from the pension couple because i was not selling my dog away. I only hope that he would have very good owners who can spend most of their time on him to compensate for the time loss i had with him. And Pepsi's look resembles Benson's so much for goodness sake! Even the act innocence look also look the same =_=*
