Our sweet, precious boy, Nielsen, crossed the rainbow bridge on January 5th.
There are a million pictures that we could post, and a novel that we could write here, but the wound is still too fresh and our hearts are absolutely shattered.
To the world he may have been just a dog, but to us he was our entire world. From the second we opened our eyes in the morning, our lives revolved around him. Nothing will ever be the same.
He had the pleasure of greeting many a tourist working on boat tours with his Dad, something he dearly loved doing, but it is time to hang up his handkerchief and leash.
His passing was sudden but peaceful in the end. We held him in our arms and told him how loved he was until he closed his eyes and took his very last breath. We are so grateful for the 9 wonderful years that we got to share with him, but forever would never have been long enough.
Love you with all the world, our sweet dog.
“Many people walk this earth, but only some are fortunate enough to walk it together with a Newfoundland dog.”
