Default Maple is gone.

don't know how many of you may have had the gift of watching Maple and her human bud for years, but i know i have. Maple left us June 17. These two always gave a wonderful sense of peace and all is well anytime i watched and listened. Thank you Trench, Thank you Maple.

Aww man that’s awful, I’ve enjoyed watching Trench and Maple for years now. I got a dog a couple years ago and named her…Maple, mainly because I always thought it was just such a perfect name whenever I watched those videos. RIP Maple

i lost four in 2019, all shelter dogs, but every one of them super special. each one lived good, long, healthy lives and i was there for each one as they departed. 17, 16, 11, 10 years old. Man that was a rough year.

That is a tough year. She just adored you, and enjoyed your playing too. Remember all the joy you brought her....

I wasn't the person in the video, just watched the channel on occasion. Always enjoyed highly the music and Maples appearance. Saw tonight that she had passed.

Sorry for your loss. My golden is 15 years old and I’m dreading the day she passes.

The Maple videos are new to me, it's heartbreaking to watch them now, even having never seen them before.

I have only lost 1 dog, but I am a dog person for life now, we have 2 more, and I'm sure many more in the future. Losing them is one of the very hardest things I've ever gone through in my life. But the price is worth it.

Don't be sad that it's over - be happy that it happened. Godspeed, Maple.

I've never heard or seen these videos but I will watch them now. So sorry to hear "Maple" is no longer with us. So sad. As a dog lover it's never easy to say goodbye and it never gets any easier. But as Ruger said...the pain is outnumbered by every ounce of love we receive from them while they're with us. Godspeed Maple! Rest In Peace good girl!

Both those videos were specaial but that second one was hard to watch without becoming emotional. What a special girl she was...she sure loved her person!

Sorry for your loss. I have a fur baby that is 16 1/2 and is on borrowed time now. It's never easy saying goodbye.

God Bless You! I'm sure that was a very difficult year. And thank you for giving those four rescues a wonderful life!
