Dog with Terminal Cancer Gets Married to Best Friend in Bucket List Wedding!

A rescue dog with terminal cancer got the surprise of her life recently. Suzy, a hospice foster dog at City Dogs Cleveland, is ill with terminal cancer and still doesn’t have a foster home.

Jennifer Dawn, who works with City Dogs, made a bucket list for Suzy to live her last days to the fullest. Suzy’s been taking tons of adventures, including swimming, camping, riding on a motorcycle, and seeing the best sights of Cleveland. But one of the bucket list items caught the attention of local media.

Suzy married Frankie, a former City Dogs rescue. Suzy and Frankie were married surrounded by bridesmaids, groomsmen, a flower girl, and ring bearer. What a great treat for Suzy!

See the wedding on Instagram, below.
