Tango came into our lives at the beginning of a very special chapter—when we were newly married and had just moved into our first home. At only seven weeks old, he was our first “baby” and our first dog. In so many ways, he helped prepare us for parenthood in ways we never could have imagined. He quickly became the heart of our home—always present, always by our side. He was there for the happiest moments of our lives, welcoming his human siblings, Noelle and Liam, and he stood with us through our hardest days, including the loss of beloved family members. Tango faced his share of health challenges with incredible strength. Diagnosed with Addison’s disease at just one year old, he later underwent TPLO surgeries at ages three and nine, and as he grew older, he managed hypothyroidism and arthritis. Through it all, he handled every treatment with quiet resilience and grace. We lost him at 12½ on February 9, 2026—the night after the Seahawks won the Super Bowl. He spent his last day celebrating with us and passed peacefully that night. We miss him more than words can express. He wasn’t just our dog—he was family, our constant, and the center of so many of our most cherished memories.
