Nicholas by Kristin / Kristin

Nicholas was truly my best friend. I will never forget the day we first met. I was eight years old and laying on my couch. My mom brought him down by me and I thought it was one of our neighbors dogs. But when my mom told me he was our new dog I was so excited ( I was always asking for a dog). I named him Nicholas because we got him around Christmas time (St. Nicholas). He was so adorable. I remember he was so tiny and he could barely walk up the stairs. But he grew not only in size but he grew to be a major part of our family. He traveled with us and has made so many memories with us.

We are so lucky that we were able to share 17 wonderful years with a wonderful, loyal, little supermodel puppy. He was everything to me; we had to put him to sleep yesterday (April 4, 2007), and it might have been the hardest thing I have ever had to do. He was my little man, but he could barely stand, let alone walk and was in a lot of pain. I know he is running around in heaven with my grandma… and I look forward to the day when we will be together again.

 

You are my heart Nick... I love you so much,
Nicholas
