It is with the greatest regret that I am writing to announce the passing of Archon, my Bullmastiff, who was a rescued, therapy dog. After a long 6 month battle with cancer, he died this morning at home after he said goodbye to me for the last time. He will be greatly missed by many. He was a superdog. He brought love, light and happiness to thousands of people. Archon was rescued from the Brooklyn Animal Care & Control 8 years ago. He was an hour away from being put to sleep when I met him and after hanging out with Archon for about 10 minutes, I decided that he was a giant teddy bear although he was labeled aggressive and unpredictable.

Archon was certified as a DELTA Society therapy dog and made a honorary "Angel on a Leash" therapy dog and over the last 8 years, Archon has proved to be nothing short of a saint. I am deeply saddened by this huge loss although I have 9 other dogs to comfort me however, I am completely devastated. Archon will definitely really be missed.

I love you with all my heart Archon. Sweetdreams my angel. I will see you again in Heaven buddy. You were a really "good boy"! Daddy misses you soooooooooo much already!!! Thank you so much for being such an amazing and great friend and soulmate to me Archon. I am eternally grateful. Fair winds and following seas Archon! Rest in Peace Archon God in Heaven, please take really good care of my dog Archon.
