Obituary of "Artie" Taylor

Artie, our awesome Boston Terrier, crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on Friday, December 7, 2018  at 6:15pm.  He was 11 years old.

Artie came into our lives when he was only 10 weeks old.  He was adopted and was a “gift” for his sister, Stella (a Lab/Pit mix that was only 1 month older than him).  The two of them were inseparable for 9 years up until her crossing the Rainbow Bridge on April 12, 2016.  We moved 2 days later to Lake Havasu City from Las Vegas, NV.  During this time, Artie's "daddy", Bob, was fighting cancer and Artie was his companion, sitting with him after chemo treatments and watching movies in the afternoon.  Bob defeated the cancer and Artie would lick his aching hands to help with the healing process.  Dogs just know these things.

Artie was known by many nicknames such as “Artie McFartie”, “Artimus McFartimus”, “Little Rat”, “Sparky” and “Bubba”.  Artie could clear a room with his passing of gas lol!  He loved his roast beef and chew toys! He got along wonderfully with other doggies! And he LOVED to ride in the truck on long distance rides from Lake Havasu City to Las Vegas, Nevada!

He leaves a huge hole in our hearts but we will never, ever forget him.
