    My heart goes out to you and Sophie. I have a Shih Tsu boy who is 13 years old. He is my heart dog. He, too, is starting to fail a bit; arthritis, deafness, and lately his eyesight is failing. But I love him desperately and, like you am doing everything possible to ease his problems. It's the tragedy of loving a dog that they will someday die. It's the way of life. But, like you, I'm dreading it. Thank you for sharing that you are, too.💙

      I got a male Shih Tzu puppy a couple of months ago after having to put my 13 year old teacup Yorkie to sleep in February. I swore I'd never get another dog because of how painful it was, but yet here I am. It's hard to live without the pure love of a dog. 🐕

      Oh my heart aches for you Nicolas regards
      Your concerns for darling Sophie ‘s health
      I relate so much because of the sudden demise
      Of my French miniature Bulldog
      At age 9 yrs he went into decline ,
      He had taken to going under my dinning table
      And it occurred to me he was frightened to be
      Stepped on , due to loss of sight
      my kind brother took my Tanki
      To the Vet , sadly he brought his remains to me
      In a box , my brother owns land with a riverbank
      And a small forest of Sumac Tree’s
      So that was my chosen spot to have my sweet furbaby
      Laid to rest. brother got an old house slate tile
      And drilled[ Tanki , ] 😢his name
      which was placed as a marker
      For his resting place.
      My brother’s home is in Ontario
      Whereby I live I. Vancouver BC
      Is my joy when on visits to family
      To go up the steep hill to the Forest of the
      Sumac tree’s and visit my little soul companion
      Now resting in Peace.
      Sending my heart ❤message of best wishes
      For your DearestnSophie.

    I lost my dog a couple years ago and I still think I hear his collar jingling around the house. It won’t be easy when you lose Sophie but it’s that circle of life that we all belong to. I’m glad you’re doing painting again because staying busy does help alot with the worries in life. Of course you don’t have to try Nicolas because you don’t stop with the hundred things you juggle daily, but something like your painting fills those quiet moments in a very healthy and relaxing way. ❤️❤️

    The dining room is so elegant. Love the colors!
    It’s wise to find a trusted person to sit with any dog, especially an older one (if possible), when we are away. Being in their own home is calming for animals, even if we aren’t there. Dogs learn that you go, and you always come back. Not everyone can get a trusted dog sitter, but it’s great if you can.

    Nicolas, I also have a senior dog I rescued when he was one year old!! He is a small one like Sophie. His name is Cody. Glad to hear that she is doing better. They are sent from God to give us unconditional love, and so much joy to be with. Did you know that Dog spelled backwards is God!! No offense if you are not a Christian. The dining room turned out so beautiful!! Yes the shade of green looks so much better than white. Do you decorate your home for Autumn? You are loved just as much as Sophie Nicolas!! Take care.

    Wishing Sophie the very best recovery from her health issue. 🙏 I am a dog person & have seen dogs thru their senior years. It was a privilege to do so. They give us so much they deserve the best. Please consider the following a friendly suggestion. If you have yet to upgrade her food to a mix of fresh meat & vegetables please consider it. We also added Brewers Yeast to our senior dog's food. It's packed with nutrients & most dogs actually like the flavor. Your dining room upgrades are looking great! Thanks for sharing. 🙏

I always enjoy seeing your latest updates in your home. You have great style and ideas. I especially appreciate the latest news about Sophie and her health. As a fellow pet-lover, I have lost 4 wonderful pets in my lifetime. I know how we cherish them. Pets enrich our lives and give us the satisfaction that we enriched their lives with all the love and comfort that we can give. Cherish each day with her. Looking forward to your new adventures at the Chateau. All the best from New York City, Robert.

What a difference. She is jumping all over the place and much more active not to mention talking all the time. if anyone is hesitating about the injections please don't. I know my cat feels much better. However they are expensive so be prepared for that. She s also on a special diet so she has become quite the diva!

    I’ve only had one dog - a peekapoo - who was diagnosed at 4 years with Addison’s Disease. He needed an expensive shot every month plus other meds. He was with us for 14.4 years - a real joy -
    and it’s been an exceedingly
    difficult 5 months but also the vet
    told us that dogs with Addison’s usually don’t make it to 14 years.
    We found his issues compounded near the end and he (usually loved life) just didn’t seem so happy anymore. Enjoy every minute with your sweetheart.
    We made a photo collage commemorating his life and while I’m still tender about losing him, I’m very happy I have the remembrances. You will have that too! Here’s hoping for more years with your baby

    Nicolas, I have a Shih-Tzu, 12 years old, and his hearing has diminished. I also dread the day when our sweet Oscar crosses the rainbow bridge. His sister, Chrissie, passed this past January at age 15. She had developed a hack as well and it turned out she had a collapsed trachea. We let it go for about a month then it got progressively worse so we had a vet come to the house to put her down. It was difficult to make that decision but it was for the best. Plus having a vet come to the house made this sad occasion all the more bearable. Enjoy every day with Sophie! PS: your dining room is beautiful! Mandy from Arizona.

    I like the dining room much more than I thought. Poor little Sophie😢. Our Sugar started the same way, but she had Congestive Heart Failure. She was almost 15 when she passed, and we were devastated, although she had a puppy spirit until the end. It was our honor and privilege to have had her in our lives for so long and we enjoyed caring for her as you do Sophie. Sending Sophie special prayers for rejuvenation and happiness…long live all the special beings that we love. Surely they are angels in disguise ❤

    Sending healing energy and prayers for Sophie. 🐾🙏. My sister’s dog had some coughing episodes and it turned out to be his heart. He’s an older rescue but doing fine with medication. Every so often the coughing returns and the Vet adjusts the meds for her dog. The coughing may very well be related to her heart function. It’s worth a “look and see”. It’s good to hear she is doing better. The dining room looks wonderful. Looking forward to your Chateau project updates as well. 🤩

And please may we see a little bit more of Sophie in your videos?!? She’s adorable and I’m sure you’ll have many more years with her. 🐶❤

    I'm glad little Sophie is getting better. You are right to keep her on her schedule especially since she has been on medication.
    I must tell you I love your living room! That table is very sheik!
    Looking forward to hearing from you when in London next week. Safe and happy travels ❤

    How funny- I was taking a break from painting and turn on RUclips to find you painting! It’s a new hobby for me and I love it! Dining room looks great. Paint colors that get a little moody at night are wonderful for dining rooms. Sending good thoughts across the “pond” to Sweet Sophie”!

    Could you do a video in the future on hanging pictures? The pictures you have in your lovely dining room are hung precisely and really compliment the exquisite mirror you have! Love to Sophie and to you, I send healing energy to Sophie!

    Hi Nicholas, Your dining room looks absolutely lovely - you have done a wonderful job indeed. Thanks for sharing about your precious little Sophie. She is just lovely. Sending up positive thoughts and prayers for her comfort and health. I hear you - it can be challenging seeing your pets navigating their senior years. You are doing the right thing by making sure she is comfortable, cared for and around people, such as yourself and your trusted friends, who love her. She is a very special doggie. Love all your beautifully curated videos, so thank you very much for putting these out for your audience. - Anjulika Chand (from Canada)

    Hmmm! A full length portrait! How royal. That dining room bouquet is so ethereal and pretty. Painting or any hobby is always a challenge to return to after an absence. I always remind myself that nature isn't perfect and sometimes the imperfect becomes our most cherished. Kiss Sophie for me. She knows she is cared for.

    As always, your videos are charming and inspiring. So sorry to hear of Sophies failing health due to age. When our fur babies become ill it is terribly sad. Of course her dad is looking after her to the best of your ability. Your dining room is stunning, very chic. I agree painting the molding a wheat colour to match the lamp would work well. I hope you keep up your painting and I do look forward to seeing your portrait.

    Dear Nicolas,
    I always enjoy watching your videos. Now also with the renovation of your dining room. I worked as a store manager at Flamant, a large Belgian decoration company. I would like to give you some advice regarding the chandelier. It hangs too high. A chandelier is a lighting element and also a decorative piece for the spaciousness of the room. Another tip is to cover the chain with a beautiful fabric. This piece of fabric should be made as a narrow tube and gathered over the chain. The length of the fabric tube should be 4x the length of the chain. You will see that this is very elegant and classy. I admire what you do and always look forward to the next one. Good luck!
    Kind regards
    Nick-Ferdinand Vermeiren

    Oh Nicolas my dog is 14 and a half yrs old and he’s my first dog too so your concerns resonate with me. His back legs are going so he walks very slowly but he really enjoys his food that I cook for him. We’ve had a few worrying episodes with him which really churns me up inside but we got through them.
    I love your kind, sensitive words about Sophie and the way you feel honoured to help her in her old age. So lovely!
    And of course your dining room looks stunning.

    Sweet Sophie❤I have an old girl, too. She’s a miniature schnauzer, 15-16+ years old. We adopted her and her brother three years ago. Her brother died a year ago as his diabetes became unmanageable. Patty still eats well, but she’s terribly frail. It never gets easier, no matter how many dogs you have. Gentle hugs to Sophie. ❤

    Hoping the best for Sophie! If she got Librela injection, please do your research. We lost a dog to it. It helped with the pain, but for some reason it was hard on him . Not sure if he had another pre-existing condition . Not trying to scare. I just after the loss I hate to see it happen again. Maybe ask the vet for an echo to check her heart.
    Best to you all.!

I love him so much and, like you, am very thankful that he has been in my life for all these years and that I can continue to look after him in his old age. 🥹 Everything looks beautiful at home and abroad, Nicolas, and I continue to look forward to your new adventures.
