Year 2006 Tributes

For pet names beginning with "P".

I will always love you. You were my very best friend and we have been through so much in the last 16 years together. Panda taught me love, loyalty, devotion and most of all unconditional love. She was and will always be my sparkle eye. My life has changed because of her. I see good in all people and I want to be the kind of person that my dog has been towards me. I truly believe that Panda is in heaven and that someday I will see her again.

My Dearest Papi, I just can't believe that you left me so soon.  
I am really sorry that I wasn't home to bring you in the house Monday night.  
I know you thought I was coming home from being gone all day so you ran out and got hit by a car.  
You were and will always be my baby.  
I miss you so much.  
You body lays in our backyard where you played with Yanni, Bagarha, Missy, and Parda.  
Your little brothers and sisters miss you so very much.  
Valentina, the baby, and Noe all miss you too.  
Everyone at work, my brothers and sisters are all so sad at your passing.  
You are so loved.  
You might be gone physically but in our minds and hearts you will always remain.  
I put your favorite toy with you so that you can play catch with Grandma, my mother.  
Your favorite blankie is there too.  
My baby boy, you are the sun and stars for me and I am excited to know that the day I leave earth you will be there to meet me at the Rainbow Bridge.  
What a glorious day that will be!  
Te Quiero Tanto Mi Amor.  

Tu Mami Diana

Peaches we love you and miss you. We will meet again when it is time. You brought us so much joy over the past 15 years. You had your own way about you. We will never forget you.

Love, Daddy & mommy

Hi peaches. You were my baby. I loved you so. You were always there for me and for all of us. You needed me and I needed you and still do. You were a constant in my life and always will be in my thoughts and heart. I could not see you suffer much longer. You went so quietly that you looked like an angel. Peaches I always thought of you as my best friend... Everyone had left me but you and you were so loyal and loving. I never minded once taking care of you when you couldn't walk too good.. Oh I might have complained of the mess... but to me it was a good mess... something I will never forget... I do hope that if we ever meet again in heaven you will remember me and come to me... Don't forget me and all of us because I will never forget you.. Catherine and Stan loved you a great deal.. and I even think that stupid big Stan loved you... and my Dave just adored you and will always... I think he took your passing as hard as me... Well anyway Peaches... thank you for all the joy and happiness you have give me for 13 and one half years... I hope I made your life happy... I really tried... Love Mommy (Nora) Dave Cath and little Stan... we miss you and love you terribly... forever..........

Thank you for all the puppy love you brought us.
I'm glad you're watching over us and are running and playing in no pain, and able to walk again. Damian and Boofer miss you too, but they will be in little dog heaven with you when their time comes.
I look forward to meeting you on the Rainbow Bridge when its time. Mommy and Daddy, Brother, Alex, Ashton and April love and miss you too.

Dearest Penny, our little white toy Poodle..You were 11 yrs old when it was your time to go..
And we all miss you so much too..
You were such a darling character..
We had a great bond together..
You were always laughing, in various Doggy ways..
I only had to speak, and your little white tail would wag so fast..and your little face would look up at me, with it's whimsical expression on it.. and those big brown eyes of yours had that knowing look in them too..
Too many other ways.. to put..
But, I thought I would like to recall a special memory of ours Pen..
For a couple of years, we knew that you were losing your sight, as it was most noticeable, indoors in the evenings.. when we looked at your eyes..as in the artificial light, it showed up the cloud of grey matter, that was slowly moving across them.. Until the day came when we took you to the vet.. to see if you had any sight left at all..
The answer was you could see light and shadows....
There had been nothing to covey to us, from you, that anything at all had changed at all..You just soldiered onwards.. in that brave quiet way of yours, that we had gotten to know, and love so well..Bless you Penn..
Anyway, you were now blind..And I thought well, I will be able to help penn. as she becomes used to everywhere..
Indoors I soon realized that unless we moved anything out of its usual place, then you were alright..
But I thought, well that's good, but when we go for walks, I shall really have to keep an eye, on Penny..otherwise she will be getting in a right tangle everywhere..
After we knew that you were almost blind..except, really for changes of light.
So the first time I took you out Pen. was very good..and some what like a T.V. commentator..whenever we went out for a walk..I started up my background description's for you, somewhat like..we are going to cross over the road now.. ready steady go.. sort of thing.. And now we are coming to the curb..Penny.. that's right good girl..
Right we are just walking by the grass Penn.. there is a big black bin ahead.. mind you don't bump into it.. yes, that's right good girl..and so on, and on..couldn't help but think what a wonderful team we made together..Penny obeyed every word..[ Or so it seemed..]
So my heart was lighter, than it had been, it was wonderful to see you..just going along, like nothing was wrong..
Well done Penny!!
Until one day that is..
When I was really put back, into my rightful place..where I really belonged...
We went along for our walk..as usual, and on this particular day..
Penny pulled on the lead..I thought she's getting a bit brave..?!
Then the Penny..if you'll pardon the pun..DROPPED!! and I had to laugh..and laugh, and laugh..
As it hadn't been my T.V. COMMENTATING,AT ALL!!! That had helped..it had nothing whatsoever to do..because what Penny was doing, she had been probably doing most of her life anyway..praps, she may have not even been listening to much of what I said any how..
In all..It had just been, Penny..going about her day as usual..as she had done for years before..her routine, you might say..
I then remembered that Penny.. had lived there all her life..and probably had a photographic memory map, by now, stored in her mind..of all the walks she had taken..
She just knew her way around off, by heart..Whether she was sighted, or not..
My goodness..
I really learnt a lesson, about the animal world on that day..
My wanting to help her, in this new chapter of her life, so much..
I had forgotten
that she knew her way around, much better than I do..it made me really smile..and the joke was on me, I think..
AFTER ALL!!
***************
There is a poem..about God giving the world all the animals, he had produced..
And for the last animal he said, he wanted people to remember Him so he had given it, his name spelt backwards..and therefore called it 'DOG'!!
SAY'S IT ALL REALLY, DOESN'T IT.. AMEN..

Helen & Keith Watson

Pepa my beautiful little girl, will love & miss you always.

Goodbye Pooh, Roo-Roo, Pooh-Pa-Roo. I'm sorry.. I hope you understand. Miss you forever.

Pepper, you were and will always be my best friend in the world. I don't know how I'll go on without you. I miss you. more than mere words can say. Please forgive me if there was something I should have done for you that I didn't. I would give anything if you and I could be together forever. I hope you're in a wonderful place now and that you are playing with C'est-Belle and Ubu. Give Cest-Belle a nose tweak and do Little Bunny Foo Fo with her. Share a slice of cheese with Booter.

Lovie dovie, baby. Mommie loves and misses you so very much. I'll see you again some day, sweetie pie. Until then, know that I'm thinking of you each and every day.

Pinto, you will always be so loved by us. You were the best thing that ever came into our lives. Your unconditional love will always and forever be part of us. I am so glad you are no longer in any pain. The only pain that remains is the pain in out hearts. Goodbye our beloved friend! Till we meet again.

Mama, Daddy and Rita

I miss you so much Polly. I see you everywhere I look.  
You missed the first snow this year, how excited I know you would have been.  
Peanut misses you too, she looks for you.  
You took apart of me with you and I will never forget you.  
Love, Mom

Polo. Our beautiful cat. We miss you every day Polo. We feel like there is something missing every time we walk through the door. You were a wonderful foster mum to Mikki and Fudge, who miss you so much, and can’t understand where you have gone.  
You were part of our family and gave more than just companionship. You gave us love and precious memories. You were forever understanding of our varying moods and bringing solace when we were upset, or solitude when we sought time on our own. For that you can never be repaid. We love you Polo, and always will.

Dawn Webb

Precious you were the best dog and you'll never know just how much you will be missed!!! We your family will never be able to replace the smiling face and eyes that were so much a part of our days!!!  
You are truly loved by all who knew you.

Maria and Joseph Rhoan and Family

Little Trecious:  
You were the light of our lives.  
So cute.  
Everyone who saw you fell in love with you--even the people in the vet's office!  
Our decision to stop your pain was so hard for us, but to see you go through seizures again and again was too much to bear.  
I will miss you lying next to me each evening and seeing your cute little face in the window watching for me to come home from work.  
We love you, sweetheart, and know God is providing for you far better than we ever could.  
Enjoy chasing squirrels and being pain-free.  
May God's kingdom and the Rainbow Bridge bring you the joy you deserve.  
We love you, Sugar Baby.

Mom and Dad

God's love for us is given to us freely in so many ways . We only need to take the time to look around and appreciate what beauty He created to enrich our lives. Certainly , love for family, friends and people so important ,and so too the love we share with our pets like "Princess " so happy to welcome us home after a hard days work ,making us feel so special and wanting little in return but a pat on the head or a little hug and never complaining . We love her dearly and look forward to that joyous reunion on Rainbow Bridge and returning to God's special home for us where we can share that special love forever.

Henry, Carolyn & Kara DiCaterino

To Princess, my best friend....you were the greatest gift I ever received....curled up in your food dish the day Grandma and Grandpa picked you up.
You've been thru everything with me...all the hard times and the good times.
You were a loyal, faithful friend...My Best Friend. I will never forget you sweet girl.
You always knew how to "Love Mama".
It was the hardest decision I ever had to make letting go of you that day, but you are resting now.
Just remember, you are in our hearts forever.
We will never forget you and will always love you, sweet baby.

Angie, Fancy and Sandi

Thank you for your trust & love!
We will never forget you Princess!!!

Pucan, you were the bestest friend I ever had. I could tell you secrets and you never told anyone. I miss you so very much. Please forgive me for letting you stay at "R's" place! Please forgive me if I put you down and you weren't really sick. Please forgive me if you were sick and I didn't know. There will never be another dog like you, ever. I will take you with me wherever I go. Know that I love you very, very much and I'll never forget you. I can't wait to get to the Rainbow Bridge to see you again. I'll be looking for you. And I can't wait to feel your kisses on my face and to hold you again and never let you go. My life is not the same since you left. You aren't at the door waiting for me when I come home. You were my life. If my tears could pave a way to the Rainbow Bridge, I'd have been with you soon after you left me. Oh how I miss you Pucan!!! I'd give anything to have you back with me. Anything!!! I LOVE you Pucan!!!!!!

Love, your Mom.

Purdy was not exactly mine she was my Mom's and when she died in 2000 I promised to care for both her and my Dad. I cared for my Dad until he passed in 2004 and then took care of Purdy till the end. Purdy was a very energetic dog who I always thought was not that old because old I have a German Shepherd who is 14 and has been old for some time now, until this August when She could no longer run and Zoom around the yard, I knew it was time and I believe so did she because on that day she spent more time out of bed then on any other day since her diagnosis of bone cancer. She is in the arms of her real owner now and even though I did love her Purdy was one of the discarded 101 Dalmatian stories that I have known since she chewed up my sons glasses at a friends house, after the tale died down she was no longer wanted but found a good home with the two people who raised me to always love animals and when you get them they are yours for life. So this is to "Purdy" Nanny and Poppy is waiting for you now. So run and chase those birds and squirrels till your hearts content, and beg for those bones like it was going to be your last but don't worry Purdy in heaven there is and endless supply, so the spark in your eyes and the wag of that tail that by the way never stopped, is there forever. Till we meet again Purdy stay safe and Make sure you try to kiss Poppy's hand just like always I'll be looking for you when it's my time to cross that Bridge even though I know you are Happy now my heart is breaking, you over came many obstacles by living in three different homes but I know the last two where the best ones yet. "Lady and Charlie" Miss you but I know you'll be there for them to show them the way Nan and Pop won't mind they loved them too. I Love you Purd
