I Remember
Little fluffball with tattoo green ears
We laughed so hard it brought us to tears.
You played and you ran
As fast as you can!
On the carpet you peed
Not such a bad deed.
So excited you were
You could not deter.
I Remember
Your fur changed one part at a time
First your back then the rest, what a crime!
You looked like a raggedy-man
But we were still your biggest fan.
For teething you used our remote.
You ate some gloves and other things of note.
We had muddy floors and muddy doors.
We had a muddy house – you used all fours!
I Remember
Teaching you to sit and to stay
To heel and to come – you would always obey.
For our daily walks you were always close-by.
Never far away – such a good guy!
Everyday to work - I gave you a treat
So you wouldn’t notice me leaving – that was the feat.
I’d say “Bye Nashoba – be a good boy”
And when I’d come home you were jumping with joy.
I Remember
For 13 years you were our PuppyBoy
But at the end you couldn’t play with a toy.
We loved you so much that we took such good care
But of course you had pain and it just wasn’t fair.
We saw you one last time on the table.
You were stiff and cold but we were still able
To give you one last hug and kiss for so long.
One last “Bye Nashoba – be a good boy” – then you were gone.
So now you are gone and we miss you so
But of course we had to let you go.
So watch over us from the Rainbow Bridge up there
And someday we’ll meet you again at the end of Heaven’s stair

I remember too!!! You bringing Nashoba to visit with his ears so green.. a fuffy ball of fur!! Jenna loved him so much and James too .. until that fateful trip to the zoo. Then he was a wolf.. too funny at the time. I have such fond memories of Nashoba and he will always been in my heart! I wish you all the strenght to ease your loss.
All our love,
Jodie and Jenna
I only had the opportunity to meet Nashoba once but it was such a wonderful experence that I came home to America and found a stray dog in my neighborhood... I took her in and when I went to find a name for her, I called her "Nashoba" and she came running to me! I know they are kindred spirits! We are so sorry for your loss and hope you cherish your memories and you will one day meet again on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge - Love Jodie's sister
