A Tribute For Burton Maxwell

To our sweet Burton Maxwell- My constant for the last 14.5 years. My little shadow. Our hearts are broken as you pass over the rainbow bridge. 🌈
We will miss all your funny quirks, your yoweling in excitement when you knew we were home, the way you were a bed hog despite your size, the way we could always know where you were by the click clacking of your nails on the floor, basking in the sunlight- and then following it around the room to soak in as much as possible, fitting in as many walks as possible in one day. We will always remember you being a part of our wedding, for keeping me company during the long BFD shifts, and during all the late nights rocking our sweet babies, how you always did things on your time, becoming besties with only the ones who left you alone, allowing our babies to love on you even though it was definitely not your favorite thing, always thinking you were bigger than you were, and thinking you could take on the biggest dogs on the block, for keeping me company during my early morning workouts, the way you never grew into your big ears, and for being there through all of our big life events- our engagement, buying a house x2, getting married, new jobs, 2 babies and all the little things in between.
Even though our hearts are broken, we know you are now able to do all the things you love free from pain. We hope you are eating all the chicken nuggies, giving all the snuggles, and chasing all the squirrels. We love you Burton Maxwell- you will always be the goodest boy. 🩵
