Reddit user Nikolaoss posted a story this week about Lennox, a boxer that was suffering from cancer and severe arthritis. His roommate realized that it was time for Lennox to be put down but first they prepared a meal fit for a king — if that king were a hungry dog.
Lennox’s owner created a meal that was complete with bacon, turkey, sausage, cheese bread, rice and salad.
The dogs owner had already paid to have one tumor removed from Lennox’s ear, however another larger growth formed, making it difficult for Lennox to even move.
Boxers according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals are one of the dog breeds most likely to develop cancer. While those cancers can be treated with surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and immunotherapy, those processes are not always effective at which point the disease can become incurable and painful for the dog.
After Lennox ate his amazing last meal Nikolaoss wrote on Reddit:
“This post isn’t meant to be sad in any way. He lived like an absolute boss all his life! And the meal reflects that!”
