In Memory

Joey was a 10 year old Australian Cattle dog who loved water and chasing the goat. He and my new husband spent 10 years together before meeting me and my extensive (mostly rescued) pet menagerie. Only one year after we converted from city life to the country life, Joey had an emergency vet visit and died in less than 24 hrs. It was an undiagnosed tumor between his lungs. It was heartbreaking. But with Joey in mind, we now have 2 other Cattle Dogs, Jack a Blue Heeler who loves to play Frisbee, and a Red Heeler like Joey (a surprise for my husband) who loves water. We also have 5 other dogs, 11 cats, 2 ferrets, a bunny, a guinea pig, 21 birds & a goat! Needless to say we stay quite busy! I've just ordered new I.D. tags for a few members of the gang! A must for those who care.

My Dear Yankee, To have you in my life for 20 years was a blessing. You brought me so much joy and love. I miss you so very much and wish you were here. We'll be together again someday, Yankee. I will always, always love you. Love, Mommy

You died so peacefully.
I love you Red Dawg.
Aunt Ressa,Moma,and friends

You truly blessed our lives. I don't know how life will be without you. Thank you for coming into our lives and being so awesome. We love you so much. Have fun in heaven. God bless you. XXXOOO

Molly our best friend,
You're in our hearts,
every day when the morning starts,
loving, caring, completely loyal,
always looking through the voile,
when I come up my street,
my heart skips a beat,
cos you're not there for me to greet,
I miss your warmth on cold winter nights
and those big beautiful eyes like northern lights,
you are my best friend always,
there with an ear to lend,
I miss you my sweetie pie,
I pray you'll be there waiting, when i die,
god bless you my little legend.

This is KC my best friend's cavalier king charles spaniel ruby
who sadly passed away after a short illness he loved going for walks with me and playing fetch with his ball. It broke my heart to see him go. He is in heaven waiting for me.

My little girl was the light of my life! She was rescued from a tornado. When I took her home I clung to her and she to me! Thunderstorms absolutely SCARED her to a spasm until I pulled from behind the "loo" and screamed at at the storm to go away! Her favorite human was her "Uncle Dave". She loved him as much as her Mom (maybe more). She just loved her Uncle Dave. I miss her so VERY much to this day. It's been 7 yrs since her passing and I am not over it yet! I can't wait to see and feel her once again, never to part ever again.

We lost our German Shepherd J.T. in January 2003 to cancer and old age (13). I took his food which was left over to our local humane society and while there I asked if they ever got Golden Retrievers in. They didn't have any at that time, but said they would call when they did. Two weeks later "Lucky Louie" became Cappy after Heisman Trophy winner John Capelletti. He immediately won our hearts, but he seemed to have health problems from the onset and we probably ended up spending well over $3000 on him over the 3 1/2 years he BLESSED us with his companionship. We left him at a good kennel near us and went to visit my wife's son who was leaving for IRAQ in 2006. When we returned the vet told us he had a tumor on his tongue which was cancerous. Doc Mike removed 95% of the tumor and told us Cappy probably had a 60/40 chance of survival. Cappy rallied for about 3 weeks, but then the poor baby started to go downhill again and we had him put down. Our Vet raises Golden's also and even he and his wife cried when they put him down. Cappy Thank you for All Your Love.

Kayla, when I saw your cute picture on the website, I knew you were the perfect friend for me. Even though you were only with me for a short while, I loved you so much,you brought me happiness in many ways. We only had two months together before God took you away but it seemed like you were here longer than just that time. I have you with me now for always and I will love you until the day I die! Thank you for loving me.

Lady showed up on my porch one morning, literally skin and bones. But she had so much life and love in her eyes, she had my heart from the word go. We later learned she had renal failure and required a special diet. With proper care and lots of love she began to come around, even trying to play with my rottweiller. Lady was obviously a hunting dog and had it in her blood. She would regain her strength, then jump the fence to hunt. I always seemed to track her down and bring her home until February 2, 2007. She was only with us for one year but she stole my heart and took it with her when she left. I'm sure Lady has passed on now, due to her illness but I still find my eyes searching for her whenever we're riding in her stomping areas. I pray she knew she was loved and did not suffer before her death. Lady, now you are in the arms of Jesus!! We will always love you!!
