This woman took her dying dog on a bucket list adventure

Francesca WashtellJan 25, 2015See on Instagram When Lauren Fern Watt's 160-pound English Mastiff was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer, she was understandably crushed by the news that she would soon lose her closest companion. As she explains in a Yahoo Travel article, the dog had been with her when she moved from Tennessee to New York City and throughout university and her early 20s, writing: "This dog wasn't just my best friend - she was my roommate and confidant." Her ingenious solution to say goodbye to Gizelle was to create a bucket list for the two of them to complete during their final months together. Their list included activities such as:
