Piri was our wonderfull girl that always brought joy into our lifes.
She was the natural center of attentions with her sweet and loving temper like the true newfie she was.
Piri always took great care of our other dogs, and was the natural leder.

When Piri was almoast 3 years she had her first litter, and what a great mum she was!
I would describe her as the best mum ever.
With her children and grandchildren she has made a great foundation for our kennel.
She has tought us so much and we will be her forever greatfull for everything she was for us.
Also we want to thank kennel Schimo for letting her come to us.

I can not describe our pain now when Piri have left us,
it hurts and she took a piece of all our hearts with her when she left.
Our son Kristoffer was very close to Piri and Piri to him, he have grown up with her and seeing his pain now is hard.
Thank you Piri for all the love and joy you gave us!

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.
