This is Zeus, he was a beach dog if ever there was one. Hatteras was where he wanted to be. His love of the ocean and the sand was undeniable from the time we arrived till the time we left he wanted to be on the beach chasing Frisbees and taking a swim.  Yes he would run out to the ocean swim around and come back on in just like you and I would. I know he’s swimming under the rainbow bridge. We lost him to cancer, he got so sick we took him to Hatteras for the weekend and he died a week later. I know he just wanted to go to Hatteras one last time, can’t wait to see him again.

(The Outer Banks Voice invites anyone who has lost a beloved pet to submit a tribute that we will post on our website and on social media.)
