Rufus Wilson
Rufus Wilson was with me for 12yrs. I adopted him from Dream Power when he was 1.5yrs old. He was perfect for me. A real guys dog. We were best of friend, boys.. or what I like to call, we were "Woobba Woobba'a". It's a term used to describe how similar a pet and his owner are, the mannerisms the dog has.. He saw me through all my ups and downs, and always made me smile. I know he was loved greatly, and I think he knew it to. I loved Rufus and he will truly be missed. RIP my friend. |

I can't find the words to describe the loss, the pain and and the grief in my heart. But then again, I can't find the words to describe how wonderful she made my life for 12 years and asked nothing in return; I Love You dear, old friend and I know you're at the Rainbow Bridge. |

Gatsby
Gatsby to the Bridge
We lost part of our family today. Our beloved Gatsby left us to join his father over the bridge, and he takes a part of us with him.
I still remember the first day I saw Gatsby. He was a “stud puppy,” and when we went to pick him up at the airport, this bundle of black fur greeted us. We were hoping to see a replica of his father, Dawson, but it was readily apparent that he would not be the “the next great show dog.” We knew the “smart thing” to do would be to ship him back, but he was such a wonderfully happy little puppy that we knew he had a forever home.
All Gatsby wanted to do was please us. I took him to a couple of shows where he won the points, but we knew he wasn’t the quality that we wanted to show, so he “retired” from the ring. Shelly ran him in agility, and he did so for her, but it really wasn’t his forte. He needed a job, but there just didn’t seem to be anything for him. He was just our “wiggle-butt,” and part of our family.
Then he met Jill, and he adopted her as part of his family. He even took “Sissy” the Pug as his sister. For him, it was love at first sight. He saw that Jill could use his help and she quickly became his “second Mother.” It took very little training from Shelly; Gatsby just took to being Jill’s service dog. All he wanted was to be with her and help her. He was always the sweetest dog, but when he was with Jill he could also be her protector. He was never happier than when he would help her walk, be with her at the office, and sleep at her bedroom door.
So the little puppy who really wasn’t a show dog, who really wasn’t a performance dog, had found his niche. He obviously was sent to us to be part of our family, and to show his great heart by being there for Jill. My mind asks why a wonderful dog like this is with us such a short time. And my heart answers that he was sent to teach us Love.
He was happiest when with his family. We will miss him desperately, and we know he is now reunited with his father and uncles. Be happy, dear Gatsby.
May the shamrocks fall softly …

Johnny was not just a cat, he was a little bit human and a little bit dog. He fetched, rolled and wrestled with our dog Harlie, came when called and loved to snuggle. He kept an eye on all the outside activity and would greet every visitor as they entered our home. He will always be in our hearts. |

Belle......
What an amazing part of our family..our alert hound (Treeing Walker Hound) that kept us on our toes all the time! She kept the bears and Mnt. Lions away as well as the Raccoon's. She was her sisters mirror image and the story to how we got this beautiful dog was truely amazing!
While picking up our lab from the vet there stood Belle needing a home and after visiting with the owner I had found that she was my puppy's sister, we took her home and the rest is happily ever after! See you in Heaven |

Daynah Sue Jackson-Dugay
Daynah was ours since she was 5 weeks old. She was potty trained by 3 mos. She barely barked or had any bad habits (until her geriatric years). She was very gentle and got along with all people/dogs/cats. She loved going on walks and car rides. She loved being touched. She was a good girl.
I miss her so much (& even miss the things that I thought I would never miss, like incessant barking at nothing).
It is my hope that "All Dogs Go To Heaven" because if a dog deserved it, it was our Daynah. |

Malakai
I keep looking for my sweet kitty to be cuddled up in a ball and I see him out of the corner of my eye but he's not really there. He was the best cat anyone could have and had a very long life of 15 years. It just seemed as if he might live forever but I guess every cat loses his 9 lives. |

When you left Kitty, you took a piece of me with you. I will miss but always treasure our morning kitty conversations, your sweet head buts, your scratchy little kisses, and your crazy "un-catlike" antics. Also, thank you for always loving me unconditionally. Please Kitty, look down on us and help me keep your brother Snowpea in line! You have gone too soon, but as they say only the good die young. You are truly one of a kind my sweet little guy. I love you Meow Meow. |

You had a great wonderful SPOILED life. Marty had some depression after you left, but was better about a week later. KJ put you with your daddy today, so the family is now one. KJ sure does miss you a bunch. She helped me make a picture memorial. Ruffles crossed the bridge this week, please protect her. Your smile and beautiful face will never leave my memory. |

I will forever feel sadness for not protecting you. I ache when I think of how you left. Things aren't the same with you gone: you calling my name, telling us when it's bedtime, your morning belly rubs, & the nightly head-butts. Marty smelled your resting place & immediately laid down. The boys have been upstairs more often. Murphy & Mollie didn't expect you so soon, but welcome you...show 'em who's boss. You are now a Blue Russian angel, whole and strong again. |

Lucky
Every once in a while God will let us have one of his beloved animals for a short time on earth. He sent us Lucky Dogg. Lucky Dogg was very special, he brought us happiness, love, and a deep friendship once you meet him. There was a unspoken bond between he and I. We had the ability to speak to each other without words. He taught us courage in spite of the pain he endured during his last days. He will always be loved, remembered as a special fellow. I love and miss you Lucky Dogg. |

Patches - Dalmatian/Border Collie
Our Patch-a-Pup, vibrant soul! There were never half efforts, everything done with 110% of herself. Even when she was afraid of the thunder/ lightening, she was "vibrant" in her shaking. She was our daughter, our protector and Sammy's big sister who always played to win.
My sweet (75lb) little girl who always wanted to be wherever Mommy was. Super hearing could detect the slightest kitchen sound of lunchmeat or candy being stealthily opened. God bless RIP till we meet again! ::HUGS: |

Jack
We lost our sweet Puppy Jack on a Sunday morning. He was doing what he loved best, chasing a squeaky toy, when he collapsed and was instantly gone. He came to us a terrified 5 month old puppy and with patience and kindness he blossomed into a very smart and sensitive dog who lived to please his "people". He was 12 when he left us but he was gone way too soon. His human parents and his doggie brother Stanley miss him terribly. We love you Jack. |

I expect you to be running all over the bed as I am trying to make it,and then flop on your side waiting for some love, and then race me down the stairs for your breakfast. I will miss seeing your ability to squeeze yourself into any size box. You could always make me smile on bad days providing your unconditional love. You will always be my Mack a'Doodle |

Molliegirl, I miss you more than words can say. I look at this picture & wish I could hold you again and look into those big beautiful eyes so filled with love. You and I were like soulmates, and there is a huge hole in my heart now that you're gone. I'm happy that you're no longer in the grasp of cancer; that you're now healthy & happy, waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge. I imagine you & Koko playing together & look forward to when we're all together again. I love you sweetheart! Mom XOXO |

For little over 20 years Cricket was a huge part of my life. From the day he was born till the day God took him home. When I was sick with cancer he never left my side. When I was alone I knew I could always count on my little boy. He was much more then just a pet he was my best friend. Thank you Cricket for all your loyality and love for over 20 yrs. I miss you so much but we will be together again in Heaven. |

Such a great bird and companion that will be greatly missed by us all. You still had years of life left and it was cut way too short for you, baby girl. I know you had a great 8 1/2 years of life and you had a great personality that made everyone laugh. R.I.P pretty girl. Mama loves and misses you bunches! |

Macie
I lost my beloved Macie on June 3, 2011. Macie always made me laugh. She showed me with her eyes what she wanted. If I misguessed, she waited until I got it right. She was my best friend and I'm so grateful she was with me for 10 years. I miss her behind my chair, on her bed at night, and outside in the yard. I will always miss her and will always be thankful to have shared her life. Macie provided many lessons to all of us and was there when we most needed her. I will always love her and will always be grateful for her love! |

Ajna
Ajna was only in my life for 6 yrs, but will remain in my heart forever. She had been through two surgeries & was taken to the ER 2-3 times. She had deformed cartilage in her knees & had early arthritis and allergies, but she was healthy/happy nonetheless. Her sudden death due to an intestinal tumor was a total shock. She was so loyal, she stayed around long enough to see me through an awful breakup with someone before she left my side. I guess she knew in her heart that person wouldn't be there for me as she had always been. |

BAXTER
Baxter, a 14 year-old Keeshond, passed away last night, October 12th, 2011 at 8:32 PM in our home. He was more than a family friend to us. He was also a medical dog. He had suffered pain in his abdomen and heart failure. He couldn't hang on any longer; he just gave up, and I saw him take his last gasp of breath of air as he went, never to be forgotten. For the past 13 years he was happy-go-lucky and always friendly. He always wanted to go and was very playful. Our vet had the same kind of animal and said that his passed away at 13 years of age from cancer. When they checked Baxter, they stated possible trouble with his kidney, liver, or pancreas, or possibly a tumor. But they weren't sure without a blood test which we were going to have done today. Unfortunately, that never happened. There will never be another to take his place nor even come close to his disposition. He was loved by everyone, including this family. God Bless You, Baxter. You are no longer in pain or suffering any more. It will never be the same around here without you. From the family and friends that loved you ad took care of you.

Ricky
Our sweet little rat, Ricky, died this morning. He was supposed to be a foster rat, originally from a Wasson High School classroom. We decided to foster him over the summer, but quickly fell in love with him and gave him a forever home.
Ricky was a docile, friendly, little snuggle-bug, and we wish that we'd had more time with him. He will be truly missed.
