#446 Noble

Rest easy handsome boy…

“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Noble, GSRNE #446. Noble came to live with us as a foster in March 2016 after a very difficult year of losing Buster #352, our Elsa and Sophie #440. He was a perfect fit for our home and we adopted him in June. We are extremely thankful for GSRNE for bringing us together.

Noble was incredibly handsome with his long coat and gorgeous coloring he turned heads everywhere he went. He loved to go for his daily walks, car rides and just plain hanging out with us. He was well loved and spoiled and deserved every bit of it. He was a friend to all, including small dogs and the bunnies in the yard. He recently made friends with Mary, a neighborhood golden retriever, and would look forward to seeing her at the mailbox, a highlight of his day.

Last summer he suffered from an infected toe and had to have it removed, humiliated to be wearing the cone of shame for 3 weeks, but he was always a good patient. He was truly the best dog that anyone could hope for and we are grateful for the time we had with him.  Recently he had been diagnosed with Degenerative myelopathy. Although it became increasingly difficult for some of daily routines, at nearly 13, he was strong through it all.

It was hard for us to say goodbye but know in our hearts he now is running free of pain.”
