 Mayor Junior passed away on May 17th, just 2 days shy of his 13th birthday. Thankfully, he did not have to be euthanized, (which was especially easier on his "people"), and mainly died of old age. Although Junior was diagnosed with lymphoma last fall, he was able to live well in his remaining days.
According to the Mayor's owner, Jane Cochran, "Junior died peacefully in his yard after taking a long pee and smelling the flowers."
Evidently Junior loved being mayor of Rabbit Hash. "He'd get so excited when we'd get out his red, white and blue bandana. He tried to serve his town well," Jane added.
Junior was born and raised in Rabbit Hash, KY. A working retriever,
Junior traveled by car extensively around the country. His all-time
favorite states (besides KY and OH) were Texas, Montana and North
Dakota. He also donated his time to help others and served as the
"spokesdog" for the Northern KY Women's Crisis Center Pet Protection
Program.
Junior was buried next to his mother, Belle, and his father, Herb
in the woods on the Cochran property. We will all surely miss him here
in Rabbit Hash.
