Petloss.com Year 2007 Tributes

The following is an excerpt from an email post I delivered to the greyhound email list I subscribe to.
The letter was from both of us and best describes his final day on God's green earth.

Two summers ago, Eagle had neurological phenomena occur that left him temporarily incapacitated the weekend of 31 July-1 August of 2004.
We thought that would have been the weekend we would lose him, but an act of God occurred when he recovered enough to walk.
After a week of nursing him back to health, he was about 80-85% recovered. He wasn't as swift as he once was, and he did need assistance getting in and out of his favorite pastime -- the car, but he was functional.
He was afraid of ceramic tiling (it's a good thing because it's expensive anyway) because he would slip more easily in his current state, even afraid of our kitchen floor (which was cheesy vinyl).
In the early morning hours of the 11th of July, he woke up, jumped from the bed (per usual), fell to the floor, and couldn't get up.

My very sad news to report is that we had to help Eagle to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon (July 13th, 2006).
Realizing that he didn't WANT to get up anymore and didn't want to even leave the family room, we knew that it was time.
We helped him into the yard, carrying him to do his duties, supporting his back end when he had to go to the bathroom (with steroids and water -- you know the rest of the story).
When he didn't WANT to do it anymore, his message to us was clear.
Yesterday at 2:06pm (13 July 2006) Dan held him in his arms to comfort him, to let him know that we love him, and that his misery would become more comfortable very shortly.
He felt no discomfort anymore, succumbed very quickly, and was finally at rest.
He was our Bum, our King, our Old Friend, our first ever dog (for both of us).
I usually tell others on this list that helps their four-legged friends to the Rainbow Bridge that remembering your friend will keep him or her alive forever.
He will be very much alive -- in our hearts --- for a long time.

It was very lonely last night without him in the bed, without the "sigh" of comfort as he snuggles against us, without Mom and Dad's back pain in the morning, without his clock work 9:45pm whining at dad to go to bed. A very solid sleep was in order, one that we haven't had in a long time.
His new brother Gage was a little confused by it all, looking for him, wondering why he wasn't in his "designated spot" last night. It will take us all a while to adjust -- now we just have to tell everyone.

Eagle, my Old Friend, you will live on forever in our hearts and in our memories.
Let this article be my tribute to you, and may it give you the peace and serenity you deserve.
Until it¡¯s our turn to meet you again, rest well our little angel.

My precious angel, you lived a very short life,but brought so much joy and love to our lives.Those beautiful blue eyes so loving, so innocent, touched our souls. You will forever be in our hearts, until that day we will again meet on the rainbow bridge. I love you Ebbie. I will miss you every day.

The time has come to say good-bye, dear faithful and loving friend.
You have been my constant and caring companion through the worse and best times of my life.
No one has understood the pain I¡¯ve had for lack of human love, but you.
You have licked away all my tears over the last 11 years.
You have walked beside me through the many changes and challenges I have endured in my search for true love and acceptance.
You have followed in my shadow and given me the assurance that I was never alone.
When times were bad, you stayed close beside giving me the strength to keep going.
When times were good, you kept me laughing and pursuing the love of life.
You inspired me to be adventurous in those early years of working toward my independence.
And when I sought out human companionship, you participated with me in the search, never discouraging me from my choices.

With each new relationship, you acted the gentleman, while remaining the protector,
And gave me the confidence to take those risks and chances.
I never saw you react jealously, even when my choices turned out to be wrong.
In retrospect, I see that your unconditional love and acceptance turned out to be far more generous and genuine than any human companion I have ever had.

I¡¯ve never seen you angry at me.
You¡¯ve never ignored me or left me feeling alone.
I¡¯ve never felt shamed or abandoned by you.

And now as your precious life fades away, you walk ever closer by my side,
Never far from sight,
Still kissing away my tears,
Still assuring me in spite of your own discomfort and weakness,
That I am number one in your life as much today as when you first came to me over a decade ago.

For all this time you have been my strength, my encourager, my one true friend.
And now it is my turn to give you the strength and encouragement you need to face your final hour.
You deserve a loving and peaceful end.
You deserve the most gentle good-bye I can give you.
I vow now to give you the peace you so deserve, my precious Eb.

I will miss your beautiful loving brown eyes,
Your cold wet nose nuzzling my face
And your warm sweet kisses.
I will miss your love of chasing after tennis balls,
And the eager gallop and excited barks of going for walks.
I will miss your love of your treat jar
And your over-indulgent begs for too many doggie bones.
I will miss how you were able to communicate so effectively without words,
And following you with the ¡°Show Me¡± command.

I will always believe that we were able to read each other¡¯s minds,
And that you are letting me know that the time has come to say farewell.
These are our last hours together, my old friend.
I cherish them as much as I¡¯ve cherished the last 11 years we¡¯ve shared together.
I will never forget your love, your loyalty and undying devotion.
It is said that a relationship like this comes once in a lifetime.
I'm so glad I had the privilege of having that relationship with you, my dear old friend.

You are still missed to this day Eb. You were taken away too soon and unfortunately, I was not prepared to say goodbye to you. People say you were just a bird, but I know better then that. I will never forget you.

May you now sit in the lap of our lord! Although we miss you so much and our hearts feel heavy, we know that all of your health issues, your pain and your darkness will now turn to running, swimming endless walks, endless milk bones and CHEESE.

Each morning we light your candle, jiggle your collar, hug your bed and let out a healthy rooooo, before we start our day. All through the day we are reminded of you, like when the sun peaks through the clouds, Kaelin blows you a kiss. When we lay on the red rugs we make sure they stay in place so that you will find your place in space. You always amazed us with your sense of space while having no sight. The "bing" of a stainless bowl, the dance without the "hug" and of course the empty space where you loved to lay.

Each nite we pray that you have caught our many kisses as we blow out the candle and we take you to bed in our hearts, minds and dreams.

A huge piece of our small family and our daily routine has been altered. We now and forever hold on to only your soul as a tear is shed. Each and every day we cling ever so tightly to your big bouvier heart, never to let go, never to forget and always to remember our loving Bubba Bear.

Oh I wish you where here with me the house isn,t the same without you.i hated the fact i had to put you down after the car had ran you over
i did everything i could and the vet said it was the best thing i could do for you.You purred right up to the end of your life and i was there when you snuggled up to me and i held you so tight i didn,t want to let you go i will never forget you princess I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH.I only had you in my life for 9 month it was far to short for me and to soon to say goodbye you had to many injurys ....with all my love Denise (MUM)

Precious girl, my sweet, sweet Ebby. I know you're in that wonderful place just waiting for me. And I know you're having fun woofing at the wind and anything that moves! Did you find Buddy right away? I know both of you are checking out every single person who comes anywhere near that Bridge, anticipating and hoping that it's your turn to lead 'your people' across the Bridge.
I wish I could say I'm ok down here without you, but the truth is that even though it's been 7 months since you left me standing there cradling you in my arms, my heart still breaks every time I think of you. Every time I drive by the house where you were born, my mind's eye pictures you running out of that dog house with your 10 brothers and sisters - and you the only one yapping and raising a ruckus.
I can still 'see' you running right up to me and when I scooped you up into my arms it was the beginning of the most wonderful friendship I've ever known.
You will always be my sweet Spotted White Paw and you will always be my dearest, most treasured friend. I love you so much and I can't wait either little girl!

he was my little angel send from above I truly will miss him with all my heart. But i know someday we will meet again under better conditions.

I lost you today, and what a loss it is. I got you from a breeder and really you picked us, you wouldn't leave us alone you wanted to be part of our family. Really you were our first child. We took you everywhere you got to go camping do overnights at grandmas, the works. Then we had a child of our own you were 8 almost 9 so an old girl by doggy standards.People said things like " You have a rottweiller,I would get rid of her,not a good breed to have with a child!"But we didn't listen you were always a mild mannered dog and we knew you would stay that way. Really you were too old to enjoy our daughter like you would've when you were younger but you liked to fish with her (you did that today before you passed away)and swim, you used to sleep outside her doorway as well,her little night watchman.You my sweet Eboneezer will be dearly missed and I wish I could've told you goodbye today I went to work and didn't get to, I got a call from Rick letting me know you were gone. So this is my goodbye. I loved you very much!

goodbye my angel i will always love u

Hi Ebony...
I miss you so much.
It was very hard to let you go, but we knew it was the right thing to do for you.
You were such a great friend and companion to me. It's so hard to believe that you're gone, because you were just always supposed to be there...making sure everything was okay and protecting us.
I have your pictures where I can see them, so that makes me feel so much better. Sean smiles when he sees your picture, and he misses running around after you too. Make sure you make friends where you are in heaven, so that it doesn't seem to be too long before we get to you. And make sure you have your red leash and collar so we can see you.
I think of you everyday, Eb and I miss you more than I can say.
Be a good girl, baby.
I love you, Nicole

To My Dear Ebony
I cannot believe the void that you have left.
We found you as a puppy around the corner from our house and from that very first day you were a loyal companion.
I am going to miss you so very much especially in the mornings to give you your cookies and at night when I get home from work, you were always at the door waiting.
I know in my heart that I could not let you suffer anymore and that I could see in your eyes.
I cry everyday for you and will never forget you, you will always be in my heart.
You were just like one of my children, I was your mommy for 12 years.
Tango misses you and keeps looking for you.
Sleep peacefully my baby and I will hold you again one day when you meet at the rainbow bridge.

For those of you who don't know me or my Ebony, let me tell you about her.
She, I believe was more then just a dog, as most danes are.
She was courage for my oldest daughter who was nervous about driving to unknown places.
When Ebony callapsed to do a compressed disk, she drove her to specialists that were over 2 hours from our home.
My daughter was always afraid to drive on highways due to trucks mostly.
But she did it for Ebony and never had a fear since.
Ebony was my younger daughter's kindred spirit and theropy dog.
She had spinal surgery 2 years before Ebony.
Ebony was a nervous dog and my daughter had panic attacks, good pair.
They would always go out together.
It seemed to have cured them both.
Doing local rescue work, Ebony helped me with my dogs then I care to remember but never a growl or problem from her.
I always called her my good will ambassador whenever people came to the house.
She would lick everyone till you had to stop her.
For me, Ebony was my faithful friend, companion and always seemed to see moods in me before I could.
She would actually cry with me through losses in my life, which I had never seen tears from a dog before her.
I don't think I would have made it as well through my husband's passing without her.
She slept in my bed for 9 years till the arthritis stopped her from jumping up a few months ago.
Her eyes would never leave mine when I talked to her, it was like she had a humans soul.
I am so thankful that this little pup that was born in a rescue found me.
I wasn't considering her until she came over and peed on my shoe.
Guess that was the sign that she marked me for hers.

Thank you Ebony for all you gave us, we'll miss you and there will never be another one like you.
Lynn

Ebony I can't believe that you are gone.
Daddy took me to have some tests done this morning and when we came home he sat me down to tell me that you had passed away in your sleep.
I didn't even get a chance to say good-bye.
You weren't even sick Ebby; I wish I would have known if something was bothering you but we had the doctor check you and he said you were healthy.
Why did you leave us so soon?
We had twelve beautiful years with you; you were a joy to us and Toby, Candy, Lacey and Zoe miss you.
You have left a void in our hearts and will always be thought of and missed.
You have now crossed over the Rainbow Bridge and have joined your other sisters and brothers who have passed before you.
Someday we will see you again Ebby; don't be afraid because Mommy is always with you.
Yesterday Daddy picked up your ashes so you can be with us in spirit forever.....We all love you so much and miss you.
Please kiss Kasey for us when you see her.

My precious girl Ebony,
When I woke up Saturday morning and found you laying on your side with labored breathing and that glazed look in your beautiful eyes I knew something was terribly wrong. When I rushed you to the doctor I had no idea it would end up being our good by. The Doctor wanted to run some tests on you so we would know what the next step would be. He told me to go home and he would call me within a couple of hours with the results. I thought you would somehow be treated and be able to come home with me soon. I got a call about 45 minutes later and the doctor told me when they started you on the IV fluids and began to prepare you for x-rays you went into cardiac arrest. The doctor called and told me I needed to get back there immediately, as he didn't think you would make it much longer. The x-rays showed a mass inside your tummy. I felt like it was my fault for not knowing sooner, but he said there would have been no way to tell. We had fun at doggie park last week, and I will never forget that. I have been crying since you left me. I miss you so very much my black beauty! Thank you forever for the 11 1/2 marvelous years you dedicated to me. My heart is broke in half and I can hardly think straight. I feel lost, and there is a huge void where my precious lady Ebony use to lay. Oh my Lord please help me...I am hurting so bad! The grief is unbearable. I was numb and in disbelief that you would be taken from me so abruptly, and now it is sinking in that you are really gone. I didn't know you were sick until it was too late. I am sorry honey. Just before your last breath, you looked up directly into my eyes as if you were telling me good by. That picture of your pretty face will stay in my mind forever.
My heart and arms ache for you. You will always be my girl you beauty, and we will meet again one day. I thank the Lord for giving me the honor to know you and for your gift of unconditional love.
Thank you for allowing me to be me to be your mom. You were a perfect dog! Watch for me in heaven baby...I'll meet you at the bridge. Until we meet again my luv, forever, Mommy.

Dearest Ebony,
We were blessed to have you in our lives for 15 plus years. You gave us so much and never asked for anything. We miss you so much it hurts to breathe. I know you are in a better place; a place where you are no longer hurting;a place where you can run as fast as you can, play ball again like you used to and eat as much food as you want. I hope that you know how much we love you and miss you. How I wish you could have been with us forever. But God doesn't give us that much time. You leaving us only makes us realize how much you gave us in your life. And now, the memories of you will have to be enough. So dear Ebony, know that no matter what you are doing up there in doggie heaven, that we are thinking about you and loving you with all our hearts. Until we see you again...

Our time was too short my sweet Ebony, my beautiful boy. I'll never forget how you touched me. I know you are happy and playing with your brother, but I miss you so. Thank you for spending your life with me.

My little sweet, so sadly missed, nothing is the same now you have gone. I hope you know that putting ou to sleep was because we love you so much and couldnt stand the thought of you suffering, am I sorry there was notinhg else we could have done to help you.
We will never forget your bright eyes, and special character.
Look forward to being with you again one day. Love you lots.

I hope that you are at peace now.
I will miss you so very very much.
You really were truly a best friend, and I'm finding it hard to believe that you're gone.
You'll always be the baby girl, mommie girl, pup, and our Ebbie.
Make lots of friends where you are and make sure that you have your red leash so that we recognize you when we see you again one day.
I love you, Ebony.

Ebony was part of my feral cat colony.
They had to move when we did almost a year ago, to protect them from neighbors who said they would harm them. Ebony's final months were in an enclosure I built for him, his father Midnight and a friend Princess.
Ebony was TNR'd several years ago and was a loyal companion of his dads.
While he would never allow me to touch him, we held mutual fondness from afar.

Ebony, you helped to show the world that a TNR feral can be a great neighbor.
I loved you very much and will miss you!
Don't be afraid of anyone at the bridge, you can live in Peace there dear friend.
Maybe one day when I arrive I can finally hold you in my arms!

My companion, my friend I love you and miss you dearly.
My heart breaks to be here without you.
Thank you for your unconditional love and devotion for the seven and a half years I had you by my side.
I hope you are running, swimming and eating every crumb you can find in the heaven the kids told you about.
I will see you tonight in my dreams.

I love you buddy and miss you so much. You were mommy and daddys best boy. You were my perfect angel. Please come and find me in your new and youthful healthy body. Come live your 2nd life as a king with mommy and daddy again. Mommys Echi boy, go run for a bit, then come find me!

In loving memory of my sweet little Tortie Dortie. She was my little rose, my baby, my precious one. Echo was a blue tortoiseshell cat
given as
a late birthday gift , an "Echo".
She slept in my arms at night and seldom left my side during the day. It's only now having found this site that I can put into words my feelings at losing her. Thankyou for this blessed service. You cannot know how much it has helped me. I know she waits for me there, bless you my little darling . Not Farewell just Au Revoir . Rest in Peace until we meet again
Mummy.

I am sorry about the loss of my friend Andrew's cat Echo. I am so glad Echo is not in pain anymore, and is happy playing with Joe.

It is with a profoundly heavy heart that I inform you of Eclipse's death January 3, 2007.

Through the years, I have read the beautiful, heart-felt eulogies of many a SAR (search and rescue) pup and felt the handler's pain and wondered how they were able to compose such meaningful works of their partner's life and experiences.
Today, I find myself struggling to capture the essence of Eclipse and what he brought not only to our family but community without boundaries.
His gentle, yet vibrant brightness brought hope, answers, enlightenment and comfort to so many.
We marveled at the pride and sense of community ownership among our friends, fellow emergency responders,
veterinarians, grocers, pharmacists, churches, schools, scouts and all who encountered his magical ways.

I cannot count the doors opened and opportunities created by Eclipse's existence.
Our family is so much richer for the time he shared with us.
We are grateful that his suffering was only a matter of a few hours and not days and weeks of misery and uncertainty.
Though I was his handler, Eclipse and our son Jeffrey were truly buds.
Eclipse was his healthy, active self throughout Jeffrey's Christmas leave from the Air Force.
Early on the third, Jeffrey loved him and kissed him goodbye.
I really think Eclipse then knew his time had come.
He also had a very special bond with my mother who lost the battle with Alzheimer's a few years ago.
She spoke only words without meaning to all of us, but when Eclipse sat at her side, paw in her lap, she spoke to him with perfectly appropriate loving phrases.
We can only hope and assume that Eclipse and my mother can once again can share endless times of delight, both now in God's caring hands.

We will love you endlessly precious "Clippers."
Your legacy shall live on in SAR pups yet to come.

We love you very, very much!
You will forever be in our hearts and minds!
You are not in pain anymore and you're playing with other cats until we get to the bridge to be with you.
We will see you someday!

Eddie was a member of our family and had to be put to sleep yesterday.
He was the family dog for my mother, sister, and myself.
We all used to live together, but my sister and I are now married and Eddie had lived with my mother for years.
He was her protector and most faithful companion.
My sister and I found him at a local shelter when I was in my early 20s.
In his own way he helped me through a divorce and was just the kindest, sweetest
dog you would ever meet.
We had 15 good years with him.
Goodbye Eddie.
We all miss you.

Eddie was always a puppy.
He never grew out of chewing or jumping or just that puppy excitement.
He lived in a wonderful backyard, large and full of fun things to do.
He never held a grudge.
He was delighted to greet me, always.
He was My Eddie.
When he escaped from his backyard he just made the neighborhood rounds.
His life was diverse but confined.
Eddie was the savior when a divorce severed our family.
He bound us together with his continuous delight for life.
He left behind a spot nothing can fill.
He will be always a treasured piece in this family's puzzle.
Lessons he taught us were valuable: patience, perseverance and continuous and unconditional devotion.
I thank God for the opportunity I had to share his life.

Eddie,
You were a great part of my life and your four-legged sister, Carly, and I will miss you greatly.
You were extremely laid back and special to all that knew you.
You will always be in my memory.

It is with a very heavy heart that I inform those who read this, that on January 18th, 2007, my family and I had to say good-bye to our dog, Eddie. She had been developing strange bumps on her body and a recent test by the vet had diagnosed her with some form of cancer. The cancer had already begun to spread through her body, and although we were given the option of drugs, it would have just prolonged the inevitable. It was incredibly painful to watch her leave this planet.But she went peacefully and quietly in the arms of my mom and wrapped up in one of her favorite blankets. It was very heart wrenching when my mom took her collar off and picked her leash up from the floor. Just knowing I'll never hold her in my arms sucks. At least now, she is no longer in pain and probably very happy where ever she is right now.

To me, that little dog was everything. Trash digger, cat poo eater, endless hours of belly rubs, a sweet comfort, a good listener, a kind heart, barker of anything that moves in the yard, begger of food, foot biter of anyone who didn't give her food, she was my puppy. I miss her terribly, and it breaks my heart into a million pieces when I walk in the front and she's not there to great me with a wagging tail and this little "Woo-woo" growling noise she made when she was happy. She helped provide countless happy and funny memories I will always cherish in my heart. I swear at nigth when I'm lying in bed I hear the noise her collar makes when she walks around the house. No dog will ever be able to replace her. She was a spunky little dog with a huge personality. She has meant more to me then almost any human I know. Eddie was somewhat of a little, hairy, 4 legged sister to me. I miss her. She lived a very lovely life. And I am grateful to have been blessed with such a sweet little dog. I am very thankful to have had her.

True friend. Unconditional love. No judgement. Just always there to comfort me in times of need. Sadly missed by his best friend and companion, Cobbie. Rest in peace.

I can't believe you were in my life for only 2 years.
It seemed as though it was forever.
I miss you everyday.
I still call your name when I wake in the morning.
I will love you forever.

We cannot imagine a better dog- a better friend.
Always there when we needed you- it was impossible to remain sad in your presence.
You brought humor, love, and loyalty to our home and we will always, always love you, our dear friend and companion.
Love you puppy.
Rob, Danielle, and Kayla

He was my good buddy.When I found a bunch of puppies abandoned on the road, he took over after their Mom died, taking care of them.The one puppy I kept became his lifelong friend. He would sleep with my cats and was kind and loving to all little animals.

To my cat Eddy, you were a great. loveing cat, I will forget you and I love you. you were our kitty dog. You will be missed

I hope your last few years were happy. You deserved much better in life than you got...we'll all see you someday at the Rainbow Bridge.

Beloved tabby cat.
A wonderful, loyal companion and dear sweet friend.
He will be missed and never forgotten.

Edgar was a tremedous light in our lives for ten years. Our angel has his wings and carries a big piece of our heart with him.

You slipped away so peacefully, we let you go the way you should have with no pain. You have been loved since the day you entered my life , and you continue to be loved. You will always be missed but never forgotten, your spirit lives within my heart forever. (I feel you watching over me)

Sweet Edie, we love you so much, and you will be in our hearts forever. Thank you for the many wonderful years.

I don't even know how to say Goodbye to someone that has been such a vital part of every detail of our lives.
You have always been a great joy to us.
We were not expecting this outcome.

I remember the first time I picked you up.
What a chin kisser.
That was always your place, so friendly, so happy and so very sensitive to our every need.
What a wonderful companion!

But I also know how you never got over Einstein leaving for the Bridge last year.
We understand just how dependent you were on him.
The fight was long and hard and you fought valiantly.
You were so tired.
So, please rest now.

I know that Einstein met you at the Bridge.
What a grand reunion!
Now you two can run together again, with you bouncing like a calf.
I am sure that Einstein will take over the role of Big Brother again and show you around.
He taught you when you two were here, and He will teach you there. Please give him a chin kiss for me.

Even Doctor Tucker was heartbroken.
She said many times what an awesome dog you were.
I am going to say "How very loved you are by everyone that got the pleasure of knowing you."

Sister to Tux and adopted sister to Phoebe, Oliver, Magoo, Rider, and Chisharo.
Will be missed by us all.
Enjoy romping with all the other ones.
Be pain free and happy.

I found my little buddy Edward on a very cold February day way out in the country of middle Georgia.
He was cold, obviously starving, very stinky & blind in both eyes.
I am not sure if he was abandoned or simply got lost but the fact remained he was in desperate need of help.
He was sitting next to a group of community dumpsters (which no doubt his powerful nose led him to in hunger) & as we approached the 4-way stop I saw him sitting there (so sad looking) & thought, this was the cutest dog I had ever seen.
That was 4 1/2 years ago I will forever treasure those years with my Edward, the absolute sweetest soul I have ever known.
I miss him so very much & pray that he WILL meet me when I too have passed.
I know my pain will eventually subside but I am finding it a very difficult process.
My other furbabies, family, friends and my spirituality are all a great comfort to me, but this loss seems to have hit me harder than previous losses in my life, however I would not trade a single day with my amazing find from God.
I feel as though we found each other that day, we both needed each other & somehow our paths crossed (almost 2 hours south of where I live on that particular day at that particular time)...in my eyes it was a sort of miracle.
I am so happy to have found this site as I believe writing to be a great comfort in my healing process.
Thank you for reading and I hope among all hopes that you and any support you have find strength and comfort in your times of need.
God Bless,
Dave

Eeyore---doofy dog with a pink nose----big, 96- pound squishable baby----we love you and miss you soooo much! When Spring comes, we'll go outside and blow bubbles and laugh, as we remember you running & jumping allover eating bubbles as fast as we could blow them!
You silly, wonderful, sweet dog.
What a gentle protector and dedicated pet you were!!!
Thank you so much for all the love, protection, loyalty, friendship, and the laughs you gave us to treasure. I hope the angels up there give you bananas and marshmallows!:) You are among some awesome fur buddies who went before you and we know they were there for you at The Rainbow Bridge, to welcome you to endless fields of play and sunshine, and no more pain.
Eeyore---you will forever be missed----WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
Mommy, Daddy and your bestest pal, Nathaniel
and your catbrat pals, sister Woozle, and brother Hershey.

I got Effie from a home when she was between 2 and 3. She was my companion and the greatest friend that you could wish for and was always there for me. I took her nearly everywhere that I went because I wanted her to be with me other than work. Sadly my baby got Diabetes and cataracts which caused her to go blind and then on came Cushings Disease and I had no choice but to put her too sleep no more not seeing and hurting. I miss her like crazy and it hurts so but I know she is now at rest at Rainbow Bridge.Effie my treasure I will always love you and miss you heaps.

Effie was found in a box with her brother on someone's Lawn. She fit in my hand, a shaky little dog went from a plam full, to a lap full.

Her name, Effie Leen, was my great-great-grandmother's name, Appalachacola, is a Native American word meaning Land of the Happy People, Fallujha, for all the fallen during the Gulf War. Effie didn't have her name long enough, only 9 years.

She was a great watchdog, little dog, big heart, she guarded us well. She was also a road dog, the car didn't roll without her. She wore her sunglasses well, but she loved her pink doggles, that way she could hang out of the car window with the wind blowing through her hair, and her head up high. She had a wardrobe that anyone would envy.

She could cheer up the hardest sour puss. She would come to you, look up at you, and then turn around so you could pick he up. Her poppy was her biggest fan. He called her pretty girl.

Effie was a pure joy, she came to us after losing our beloved Ceaser, and our hearts were broken, She help to us to heal, she was good medicine!

Dr's said her trachea would collape, it did, commom in small dogs.She went quietly in her poppy's arms. We loved that little pretty girl.

Eightball we had to send you on your journey today. We love you and will miss you badly.

To our smart and brave little girl...we'll see you when we pass on.
Until then, we'll miss you.

Our dear beloved Einy, we miss you and will always love you dearly. You are close in our hearts and we will always have beautiful memories of you. You were a great friend and companion. Everyone loved your friendship and personality. Rest in peace our beloved cat. Sadly missed by Evelyn and Diana

He loved his family more than anything and was always there for us. He will be terribly missed.

My sweet boy!
You are with Sela and Tiamo now please don't worry about me you were so brave!
I will miss you "fuzzy face", there will never be another after you, you have solen my heart forever.
I will see you again!
I am glad you were not in pain and told myself I would let you go before that happened and you went so bravely, I love you Einstein!

To our loving dog (Einie) who will be missed everyday by his family. You brought love, joy, happiness and fulfillment to all of us. You were a brother to Jason and Deidre and a grand-pup to Zackariah, Austin and Brooke. Thank You for the wonderful time you gave us, and you will be in our hearts always and forever.

P.S. Santa Clause will have a Christmas present sent to heaven every year for you. Enjoy it!

Love,
Your Family.....
Karen, Gene, Jason, Deidre, Grandma P., Zackariah, Austin and Brooke.

Oh God, my God,
Into your hands we give to you
This part of us who loved us true
This friend with whom we're sad to part
We surrender with heavy heart

Give him love and food and play
And let him in the warm sun lay
Let his soul live in paradise
Let us someday look in his eyes

For this chance to grieve and cry
And for this chance to say goodbye
For all the time he chose to be
With all of us God we thank thee

It is in Jesus name we pray
And lift to God these words we say
May your love and your comfort be
Oh God my God revealed to me.
Amen.

1/12/00 - 1/21/07
The biggest, best, smartest dog, in our world.
The hole you've left is huge, Einstein!
You know we love you so much and miss you like our child.
If there had been anything we could have done to save you we would have.
We didn't know you were sick until too late.
Your boy Kyle, Mommy, Daddy, and your girl harem, Fanny and Sissy are going to be lost without your huge presence.
Wait for us in Heaven, and we will be so glad to see you when we come.
"Watch over God's house, that's my good boy."

My cat elby I will miss the days when you came to me for Love, i will miss the days when you went to me for Care, but most of all i will miss you for who you where, a friend

Elda, sweet, innocent baby Elda. You were always quiet... though we only had you for such a short time. I loved you to the fullest... like the daughter that you are... I wish you'd forgive me for all the stupidity I did to you... it's a mistake I'll never forget. I'll offer many more tributes to you and your brothers.

Electra was much much loved, and is missed.
It was a blessing to have her in our lives.
She showed me companionship, courage, undconditional love, and a touch of brattiness.

My dear Eli.....Another month has passed since you left us on that early Saturday morning.
I now have come to believe that you knew what the future held and that it was in everyone's best interest if you simply checked out early to head for the Rainbow Bridge.
We miss you every minute of every day.
You were so nice, so cute, so funny and such a Frenchie gentleman.
We are looking forward to that special day when we will all be together again.
Please remember that we will always love you.
Love, Kay, Edi and Erma

Bone cancer took him but his spirit remained strong until the end. He was our beloved pet and his spirit of fun and adventure remains with us. Eli, you will be greatly missed.

eli you were gotten ater we lost our beloved simba. you were only with us three months but in the short time i loved you dearly. i thought you
would be coming home from the vet but you had fip. you were really sick. i breke my heart to have to put the second cat asleep in a 3 month
period. yu are with your brother simba i know you two are having fun running and playing and
that you guys look in on us from time to time.

The most amazing dog I have ever had the honor to know passed from complications related to GDV this morning.
He will be missed by everyone- especially his Dad.

Eli was tragically injured by a neighbor dog.
It happened very quickly.
I just had him out, we came back in, then he wanted to go back outside to see his best friend, Cookie, the Jack Russell Terrier.
I looked out the window always, and would watch them play.

My neighbor was outside too, so things seemed fine.
In a matter of minutes, my other neeighbor was ringing my doorbell to tell us that Eli got hurt and it was baaaaad.

We carried him in a sling to the house, where he died within that half hour, as he listened to my hubby on the phone.

Eli was so many wonderful things.
A man's best friend.
A lonely grieving persons aid to her grief after the loss of her Mom.
Eli was such a good boy.
Obedience was hardly ever an issue.
The unconditional love
he showed us was unsurpassed.
Eli was fun to play with, and fun to tease.
We would make him growl for the sake of growling playfully.
We always were informed when the mail was in or the newspaper delivered.
He warmed all of our laps, legs, thights, and even took over the bedsheets at times.
There is a huge, empty, spot in our house and in our hearts right now.
Things will never be the same.

may my kitty be happy and safe in heaven with his angels...I love you love your mom kelbi

For the short time I have known Elizabeth and her mommy Barbara, I have grown to love Elizabeth as my very own.

She was very precious and loving to all that came upon her, and that includes me and my husband Jerry.

Elizabeth had those piercing eyes that always said; "hey look at me, I am so cute, don't you love me too, like I love you!"

You couldn't help but to wrap your arms around her and never let her go!

She cocked her head to one side and with those little fluffy ears and sloothed foot standing, she was out of this world!

She had one of those special personalities of her very own! No other dog could top her, and through my memories of Elizabeth, no other dog will!

For memories of Elizabeth shall and will never go away for Jerry and I, they will always linger in both of our hearts.

She was blind and her hearing wasn't too good, but as far as my husband I was concerned ( and still is),"Lizzie was a champion!!!!"

We shall miss her greatly, even her mommy, but her love for others and her pure heart will live on!!!!!!!

She was "extremely exceptional!"

Now Lizzie, you see Jesus, hear Jesus' calling and run and catch that ball for Jesus also!!

We miss you Liz!!!!!!

Love you much ever,

Linda & Jerry XOXO

Bright light, dear friend, sparking soul, you taught me so much - how beautiful and exciting this world is. Life was never as wonderful as it was with you.

mommy (LOST LISa)

My beloved Ellie .. such a shock .. never ill until now, but always there for me throughout my illness. So feminine, so beautiful, so intelligent, so thoughtful. Please look after her in heaven.

Ellie was found about 13 years ago abandoned in the snow in a cardboard box with 2 tiny puppies. Several people "adopted" her and returned her to rescue, then she was given one last chance with Adeline.

My dear Ellie was rescued from the pound at the age of 4 months.
She was always a gentle soul, extremely affectionate and always willing to lend an ear to listen to.

On the 27th December, she began to get sick, and was taken to the Vets, whereupon I was told that she was suffering from kidney failure.
I visited my dear girl every day, and each day she seemed to get a little better, until the morning of Jan 2nd.
I visited my baby for the last time, and brought her home.
She came home and saw everything again for the last time, and I had to take her back to the Vets.
She lay quietly in my arms as they put her to sleep.
Ellie was, and always will be, my best friend.
Dear Ellie, I know yu're always with me, and one day we will meet together on the Bridge.
Until that day, my sweet girl, please be safe.

Your brother has passed your way now - please be there to take care of him for me.
God has always given me the strays that nobody wanted-He knows that I know how special those little souls are.
I miss you - FOREVER AND ALWAYS will I love all of you.
Mom

Goodnight Ellie, wait with Baggins for me :)
miss you, love you Sarah and Davy, Mum and Dad
xxxxxxxxxx

You were such a special part of our life..taken too soon...we love and miss you ....good night pretty Girl...

To my darling boxer. May God keep you by his side always and may he be as blessed to have as we were. We Miss You. Forever in our hearts, always on our minds and daily in our dreams. Until we meet again.

To our sweet Ellie Mae...you weren't with us nearly long enough and the early diagnosis of your kidney disease broke all of our hearts.
But you rallied and stayed with us as long as your body would let you.
I am so grateful that you came into our lives, and I would adopt you all over again, even knowing how it would turn out.
You were the perfect dog (except for those kidneys).
Run free sweet girl.
It gives me comfort to know you're no longer in pain...but I miss you so much it hurts.

My sweet Elliott:
On 8/23/07, I had to reluctantly help you to the rainbow bridge.
This saddend me terribly.
I miss those tiny white tips of your paws and the small white spot on your mouth-it made you look like you had just finished a bowl of milk.
You were such a good companion and friend for (I think) 14 years.
Your love for me never faded, your trust was always there-no matter what.
You were always there waiting for me to love you.
You have been through some tough times with me and I thank you for your unconditional love and support during those times. I just wish that I could have helped you through your toughest time, at the end. I am so sorry that I did not know you were as ill.Something happened and your liver failed you. If I could trade places with you and you would have a good home, I surely would in a minute.
My only comfort is knowing that you are now with your friend and mine (Earnhardt) that went to the rainbow bridge on 3/19/03.
Both of you were so special, most people do not understand the love between animals and people, (how unfortunate for them) but you gave me so many reasons to love you and so much joy--how could I not.
I truly hope that you heard and understood what I was telling you before you left for the bridge, how much I loved you and why I was helping you go.
There are very few people that understand what a terrible decision and act that is to have to do.
But I can only hope and pray that you are happy and well with Earnhardt there and that you will both wait for me because I will love you both forever.
Frank, Otis and especially Newman miss you also.
I believe Newman is taking it worse than the other two because he has no one but me now.
I have to try to find a way to help him get passed this and hopefully he can do the same for me.
Blessed Elliott, please know that I loved you so--but probably did not show it as much as I should have.
I should have devoted more time for you, I should have done many things differently, I see that now.
I ask your forgiveness and hope and pray that I truly will be with you and Earnhardt at the Rainbow Bridge someday.
I am hoping that you suffer no more, that you are warm and healthy and happy.
Please, know that I loved you very much and am sorry for what I had to do, but I loved you and did not want to see you suffer.
I am looking forward for the day that we will all be together again.
Take care and God bless.
Love you always, your mommy, Sheila Smith

You were so much of our lives, Elliot, and our hearts ache for you already.
You were my very best friend, through thick and thin, and I will pray for you every day, for your love to me during my time of illness--you were always right there next to me, licking away my tears, sitting quietly next to me, just being there.
We will miss you but we know you are running free and at the end of Rainbow Bridge waiting for us to be with you forever.
I know it will not be long till we can be together
again, so please wait by that bridge for us.
We love you so very much, Elliot, please wait for us, and be happy, we love you.

We love you and miss you every day Elliot.
You were the light of our lives and you will be in our hearts forever.

Elliott, my Beautiful Boy, you were my first, you taught me well. I will love you forever, rest sweet boy, all is well. - Love, "Mom"

Soulmate, protector and best friend.
I can still feel your paws on my comforter. I know you are still checking on me and making sure I am safe at night.

My first bestfriend was lost in 2003, Earnhardt.
His buddy Elliott stayed behind and grieved with me, faithfully.
Dearest Elliott, I am so sorry I had to put you down on 8/23/07.
Next to losing your friend Earnhardt, this was the hardest thing in my life that I have ever had to do.
I would like to thank you, my dearest Elliott for standing by me through thick and thin through all the good and bad times in my life.
I am so sorry that I did not know you were ill sooner.
I am so sorry that I wasn't a better mommy and maybe I could have saved you.
You were so loving to everyone and so faithful to me there would be no way I could ever repay you for that, except give you peace. Now your friend Newman and I have to go on without you here in this world.
There may not be anymore kitties in my life since I find it hard to say goodbye when they are called to the rainbow bridge. Please know that I loved you dearly and should have taken more time to show you that, but it is always too late when we realize that. Life will go on somehow, I have no choice.
People that do not understand losing a pet/bestfriend have apparently never found the right one.
You and Earnhardt will always have a special place in my heart.
Please say hello to Earnhardt for me and play with him and PLEASE wait for me at the rainbow bridge as I can only live for the day that we will be together again.
I love you so much, thank you for being my "baby" for 14 years. I hope that you heard and understood what I told you before you passed--please wait for me as I long to hold you both again.
My love for your will never fade nor be replaced.
I only hope that you found some joy in your life with me before you became ill.
I will remember you forever.
I love you dearly.
Goodbye my sweet Elliott, your mommy, Sheila Smith

Oh My Sweet Elliott. Your independence made me love you so much when I rescued you. I know how hard you suffered with your lung problems. I hope you felt safe and loved, and now you can rest easy, Little Man. I love you Elliott and your brother misses you. Love Momma

You were pure love. Big,sweet boy.
I'm hurting so much without you.
My arms are empty, because you had to go on without me.
My snuggle buddy is gone, and I'm so lost without you.

Some would say you were only a cat. But really, you were so much more than that.
The love and trust in your eyes touched my soul. I know you needed to go, but I find myself wishing you could come back, to purr and talk and love the way you did.

Elliot, we miss you terribly. You brought joy, love, wonder, and companionship to our lives. Watching the things that you learned to do that no other cat ordinarily does was amazing. We learned as much with and about you as you did us. You gave us over 16 years of pleasure and I am grateful for each minute. We love you very much and hope that you are playing like a kitten again and waiting for us.
Pam and Megan Welch

My best friend of 17 1/2 years, dear precious Elliott.
Your tired old kitty body finally gave out and I had to be brave and help you go back to God who gave you to me to love and care for so long ago.
My heart and arms still ache for you, but I know you are no longer suffering.
We will be together again, and spend eternity with Christ.
I love and miss you so much.

Ellis - no words can do justice to the joy you have brought us for the last 15 1/2 years.
I will miss your beautiful brown face & loving eyes, throwing rocks for you in the river and your unquestionable faithful companionship.
You did nothing but bring us happiness, smiles and laughter - and we thank you for making our lives better.

There will not be a day that goes by that we will not think of you.
We love you.

THIS IS IN MEMORY OF MY 2 FREINDS AND FAMILY.THEY WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS FOR THE LOVE AND DEVOTION.WHEN ELMER PASSED IN 05 HIS COMPANION BUGSY WAS HEART BROKEN ALONG WITH OURS AS WELL.I THINK HE PASSED OF A BROKEN HEART.IT WAS LESS THAN A YEAR THAT HE WENT.SO IM WITH A SAD FEELING EVERYTIME I SPEAK OR WRITE OF THEM.WE WILL MISS THEM FOREVER ....

Elmo was a very happy loving baby.
When he wanted to play ball nothing would stop him. We would throw the ball for hours. The chipmunks and the squirrels will also miss him, now they can get to the bird feeders. We sure do miss you Elmo, the house is so quiet. We say good morning to you and good night to you now every day.
The flowers will always bloom for you. love dad, mom, Tasha and Tom
Rest in peace my little boy.

Elmo was the greatest little buddy anyone could have!
Elmo always had a smile on his face!
He always drew out the best in people.
The little "Dude" just had that way about him!
Even the gruffest of people (strangers and all) couldnt help but smile.
You will be missed Elmo, but always fondly remembered!!!!!

Elmo was a wonderful part of our family. He brought a lot of joy to us over the years.
He was a great cat who required little maintenance. As long has he had food, clean litter box and the occasional scratch beind the ears, he was content. Elmo loved to drink out of any open cup or glass that containted liquid. He also loved to play with ribbons and string and would drag pieces behind himself as he tried to watch. Just last week, he played with a plastic packing strap from a box.
He loved to sleep on his back.
Elmo usually slept with my daughter.

When he passed away yesterday, my boyfirend built Elmo a wooden box and dug a deep hole in the back yard to bury him.
The entire household (including the other four legged kids) had a chance to say good bye.

I hope he knew and knows how loved and missed he is! Elmo will always be in our hearts and part of our family.

Our dog Elmo died of the pet food that got recalled this year. He died on the 9th of march and the recall was the 16th of march. He was the best dog ever. He was a male full grown rotty and was the best,I cry every night about him. I always wish he would come back. He wasn't feeling good and my family went out to eat. I had to babysit for my Aunt Michelle and I gave Elmo a kiss on the nose told him I loved him and promised to see him and play w/him when I got home. Well It didn't happen b/c he died before my family got home. I never got to say goodbye. My grandma went to the house and helped with everything but it wont ever be the same. Rest in peace Elmo. We love you!!!

Elmo was the best pet we could have ever asked for.
I miss him terribly but take comfort in knowing that he's no longer in pain or suffering.

It has been a year now since my precious Elmo left this earth for the bridge and I miss him terribly. He was my best friend and I was his.
He got terribly sick and I tried to help him, but I couldn't.
There are still days I wish I could die just to be with him, but he would want me to go on.
I love him with my whole heart and always will.
He was the best little puppy you could ever wish for, he captured everyones heart that he met.
He is truly missed by all and hopefully will be waiting for me at the bridge.
I miss you Elmo and I hope you know that.
Love, mom.

elmo was an awesome dog, he had a great life, brought so much joy to my family and will be truly missed

Elmo was and will probably always be the best dog i ever had. He loved with all of his heart and was loved in return by all. He will be in my heart as long as i live, and will always be missed.

Ellie was an oriental/tortie we had for a number of precious years. She passed away due to kidney problems. Now her ashes sit in front of our fire at home. Waiting at the rainbow bridge for Elsa Pella (Emily) who died a few weeks ago. Missing you dearly. Love you lots xxxxxxxxxxx

Remembering my dear Eloise who died one year ago today. Not a day has gone by that I didn't think of you.
You are deeply missed, my little friend.

Dear sweet Elsa,
My loyal and loving companion for 20 years, you stood up so bravely against your ills. You brought me such joy and comfort and I miss you more than words can say. Rest peacefully, princess.

MY ELSA, MY WONDERFUL GIRL FOR 17 YEARS!!!!!I AM SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE HAD YOU SO LONG AND AM SO SORRY THAT THE LAST YEARS HAVE BEEN PAINFUL WITH ARTHRITIS!!!!!!!!!YOU BEAUTIFUL GIRL WHO LOVED TO RUN AND PLAY WITH SUCH JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WE HAD MANY BEAUTIFUL TIMES TOGETHER AND I WILL MISS YOU ALWAYS!!!!!!!!I KNOW YOU ARE WITH MY OTHER ANIMAL BABIES AND WILL HAVE A DELIGHTFUL TIME TOGETHER UNTIL I AM WITH YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Dearest Elsa, My Pookie, Little Tiger, Top Cat - I miss you so very very much and hope I made the right decision. To see you pass that way hurts me so much. 3 trusted Vets advised the treatment was a long shot and I wanted to exhaust all options before taking the euthanasia path. Please know that I did it in the hope that you would get better and never expected your passing to be so quick nor so distressing for both of us. Please forgive me. I hope you enjoy your time at the Bridge and you can introduce yourself to Kimmy, Peter, Bluey, Peter, Bill, Ben, Sandy & Smokey and give them a purr and a rub for me - I'm sure you'll love them as much as I did and continue to. I'll see you again some time in the future and we can have lots of cuddles, chin tickles, rubs and purrs just like the old times. Love always your Dad.

elsa was taken too young too soon after a routine opp. she was a beauty in every way,protective,loyal,gentle. she lives on through her children and grandchildren and will be missed forever x x x x x

A very special little stray tortoiseshell kitten that we had at home with us for a few precious weeks over Christmas before I rehomed her with my nephew and his girlfriend. She had a number of happy weeks with them before suffering from a sudden severe stomach problem and the vet recommending her to be put to sleep.I just wish I could have had her home with me after her passing so that I could bury her in my garden, but that wasn't to be. We all miss you Elsa Pella, you touched our lives in a huge way x Now waiting at the Rainbow Bridge with Elmyra Aurora (passed 1 March 2003). Love and kisses from Mummy Jennie, Amber and Sasha Starkey x & felines Portia,Liption,Lapis,Maximus,Binka Bourbon,Blossom Bijou,Ffion and Baby Baboushka x x x x x x x x

You were so misunderstood. You were Mommys girl. You really didnt care for alot of people but that only was after you Daddy left us and you seemed no to really trust after that. I miss you so much. You are gone but never, ever will be forgotten. I love you, my lady!

Elsie was rescued from a bad situation and when she came to my home grew to be a dog who was the most loving, goofiest and sweetest dog in the world.
Although she didn't like many people -- she reserved her love only for those people that she really knew -- if she loved you, there wasn't anything she wouldn't do for you.
She was the best friend, most loyal companion and bravest protector a woman could want.
I will miss her terribly and hope that she is now running wild and free with Merlin, Bronwyn and Danu, and waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge.

Your beautiful daughter,Sophie has crossed the rainbow bridge to join you. Elsie, I Miss your smile!

she was our angel, had 3/4 of her liver removed 1 1/2 years ago. and passed away suddenly.
thank God she didn't suffer.

I rescued you from an abusive home, at 5 weeks old you saw more sadness than you should have. I only knew you one short week, but I did everything in my heart to show you how much I loved you. I wish we could have spent more of our lives together, but one day I will see you again my sweet angel puppy.

Elvis - You were the most wonderful dog any mom could ever want for her family. You were gentle and sweet, and you were always a GOOD DOG.
We love you and we miss you more than we ever thought we could. We know we will see you again, because anyone who is loved as much as you are will be with us in heaven. We did our best and tried everything to get rid of that cancer, but you only lived for two months after you were diagnosed, and that was with every kind of chemo known. I hope you are up there running through a warm sunny field, catching rabbits and eating sticks of butter. We miss you.

Elvis, I know you've only been gone for a day, but I miss you already. I really wish you could have left this world peacefully, but I'm glad you are not in pain anymore. I hope you understand that I was there with you through everything. We miss you so much and many people have cried for you. I hope to see you again Elvis Pelvis! xoxox love always!

Elvis was more then a little dog. He was a little dog with a big personality and heart. He would always go with me to work on every Friday morning to Coles Nursing Home in Guthrie, Ok. He wasn't just my dog, he was everyones dog. He had so many different names by the residents. He was a great joy to everyone he met. The bank tellers couldn't wait until Friday either. They were excited to see Elvis come through the drive through. Elvis is going to be miss dearly, not just by his family, but the whole community here in Guthrie, Ok. Elvis, we will always love you.

I only knew you for 9 wonderful days, little man. In that 9 days, you filled me with joy sweetie. Rest now sweet one. Mommy is there with you to help you along the way. I love you Elvis baby.

my dear elvis i miss you so......from the first time i saw you at the rescue in february i knew you were the ferret i wanted to bring home with me and snowball. from february until the day you passed away in may you brought me so much joy and showed me how to open my heart and love a ferret again. i will always love you, miss you and will continue to keep your memory forever in my heart. always remember even though the king has left the building you will never leave my heart...love and hugs,mommy liz

Elvis was a true and loyal friend.
He was our best friend.
He was a great listner.
Was great with kids. When Elvis was 13 years old we had a baby. (we got Elvis when he was just a few months old.) He immediately took to her.
I guess you could say he welcomed her with open paws. We couldn't have asked for a better friend/pet. Elvis will never be forgotton.
He will remain in our thoughts and prayers until we meet again!

She was my baby girl, I raised her from 4 weeks old when she fit into my palm. Now she is gone and I miss her terribly.

Elvis was the perfect companion for 16 1/2 years. He was a tough little guy to the very end. The joy and love he brought into my life can not be described. And the void he has left is impossible to express.

You were the best dog I could ever have.
I love you more than words can even describe.
You are my best friend.
I¡¯m sorry that we didn¡¯t get more time together.
I knew eventually we would have to say goodbye, but I never thought it would be so soon and unexpected.

I hope that you had a great life.
I tried my best to raise you in a good place.
My favorite part of every day was falling asleep next to you at night and waking up with you in the morning.
I loved to scratch your stomach while you fell asleep.
This morning when I woke up you weren¡¯t there.
My home was where you were, and now I am lost.
I know that your amazing soul is still with me.
You are a part of my personality and you will live on in my heart.

Hopefully someday you and I will be together again in Heaven.
I pray to God that I will get to be with you again.
I know that you are in a better place.
I hope it is even more fun than you had during your short time with me and everyone else here that loves you.
I hope there are open fields with plenty of big sticks and more tennis balls than you could ever imagine.
I hope there is lots of water for you to swim in.
I hope that you, Pepper, and all the other doggies are having fun playing together.
I hope the grass is green, the water blue, and the rain refreshing.
I hope that there are plenty of people there to watch over you until I meet you again.
You always hated to be away from your daddy.
I¡¯m sorry I¡¯m not there with you, puppy.

Elvis, you taught me a lot about responsibility, loyalty, fun, life, and love.
In the end I feel like I let you down, and I¡¯m sorry.
You trusted me to protect you and I failed.
That is another valuable lesson that you taught me.

I knew from the moment I met you that we were meant to be together.
I¡¯ve never felt so sure about anything in my life.
What I love about you most is your soul, and that can never be destroyed.
You were always happy especially when you were with me, which made me happy too.
You were incredibly intelligent.
I loved to scratch behind your ears and pet your head.
I loved to cuddle with you and kiss your snout.
I loved it when we fell asleep together on my bed, my arm around you and your head nestled on my chest.
I loved it when you tilted your head when I spoke to you.
I loved when I looked into your beautiful brown eyes and somehow felt that you understood what I said.
These are the good times I will never forget and those are just a few of the memories that cannot be replaced.

You are one-of-a-kind and a very special dog, Elvis¡and a very very good boy.
You were a pleasure to be around and many people loved you, even your dog hair.
It is your unconditional love and happiness that makes our hearts smile.
One thing you were especially good at was making friends.
I want you to know that they all love you too and that they will miss you greatly.
You made a lot of people really happy just by being you.

There are a lot of people who have called to say goodbye and some have even sent flowers, but unfortunately nothing can bring you back to me.
My only regret is that we didn¡¯t grow up more together.
I had always planned to buy you a house with a big yard and a doggy-door.
I¡¯m sure you would have been great with kids and a family.
There is nothing I would have changed about you or our relationship. When we met each other, you were the best thing that could have happened to me at that point in my life, and you will continue to be an enormous part of me.
You and I have a bond that even death cannot break.

Thank you for being such an outstanding and special dog.
You brought me a kind of joy that I didn¡¯t even know existed.
It was a pleasure to be in your life even if it was cut short.
I will miss you for the rest of my life.

For now, continue to be a good boy and wait for me Elvis.
When I get to the bridge, I want you to be the first to run to me and give me a big kiss.
Stay strong and happy knowing that we will eventually be together forever.
I want you to know that you are not alone and I will be with you in your heart as you are in mine.
I can¡¯t protect you anymore, but you¡¯re a big boy now so I know you will be ok.
Elvis, never forget that I love you with all my heart and more.
Always remember the good times we had together.
Thank you again for being such an amazing dog and for making me feel like the proudest dad ever.

Elvis was my best friend.
He was very special and smart.
He could do many tricks.
He won the title of "porch dog of the year" in Blue Ridge Georgia in 1999.
He made me so happy.

Dear Lord, please open your gates and call St. Francis to come escort Elvis, my beloved companion, across the Rainbow Bridge.
Let him remember me and let him know that I will always love him.

Elvis came to us Halloween 2006,
His previous family took good care of him.
Elvis needed a family with lots of love and we were very happy to love him.
Elvis also had a brother, Woody.
They were great pals. Elvis had sister Lulu, too.
She tried to be his boss, but he smiled at her and continued on. Elvis would always keep Woody company while Lulu chased squirels. Elvis was the best brother they could ever have had.
Elvis was beautiful and loyal and everything a special boy could be.
Elvis will forever be in our memories. Elvis was a happy doggie. Elvis didn't ask for much.
Just food and a soft toy for his mouth. We made a choice we hope was right. We believe we did what was best for Elvis even if it hurts us. Elvis is not in pain anymore. We will always miss him and love him, forever. Until we meet again...We love you Elvis.

The king has left, but not my heart, I miss him so, that loyal look of love, the kisses, the tail wagging , just happy to see me. I walk in the back door where he has greeted me for 15 years, and can't bear that my friend is not there. He was raised with our 2 kids, and has left a huge hole in my heart, and look forward to seeing him on the bridge again someday. I love you boy
Dad

BABY-ELVIS-ANGEL, SINCE DAY ONE I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT OF YOU AS MY VERY BEST FRIEND, THE KIND THAT WOULD NEVER STRAY OR BETRAY.

FOUND AT THE ANIAMAL SHELTER
CAME TO WANDA AND MADE FRENDS FOREVER HER PASSING ALWISE BE HONERED

Ett år har snart gått min lilla Emil men ja har inte glömt dig. saknar dig ofta att få sitta o kela med dig du gav så mycket kärlek lilla vän.
Nu är Alfred hos dig så behöver du inte känna dig ensam. Och
en dag kommer vi att mötas igen min lilla vän när tiden är inne.
Älskar Dig Emil.

Emilee had been with us since she was 8 weeks old, she was our first "baby". We can't imagine a day without her. For our kids sake, she hung on until after Christmas, then she let us know it was time. Emilee will forever be in our thoughts and prayers. We look forward to the day we can once again go exploring at the beach together with her soggy tennis ball and "setter smile".

Your passing was too quick for me.
I didn't expect it. I know that you are now with Emitt and are playing together again.
I love you and miss you so.

Emily was an abandoned little Calico cat who came to live on my porch. She would not stay inside and so I built her a little home and she lived happily with me for several years on my porch. She meant a lot to me. One day she vanished. Its been two and a half weeks and I still look for her. Im afraid she has passed away and I miss her terribly.I will always love and remember her.

Emily was my diva princess house kitty who loved me so graciously. I loved breathing in through her fur and smelling the freshness and feeling the warmth from her fur when she'd just be done snoozing on a windowsill. Rubbing her tummy and watching her stretch and hearing her purr was the most healing tonic I have found. Her life has left mine forever better.

Emily,
You made my life a better place.
Since the day I brought you home 11 years ago you made me smile every day, I loved you more then I ever imagined.
You watched my neice and nephew grow from little babbies and were always there to catch them with your strong back if ever then stumbled...you were their nana.
You were always there for me and any animal or child in need.
I will meet you at the rainbow bridge,
I love you honey!

Thanks for all our memories. And for being such a strong girl for Mommy's by making a difficult decision for her. I now know that Great-Grammy is holding you really tight for Mommy.

Emma was a gift from God she was just like a new born baby loved to culled and just to sit on your lap. She died suddenly from a birth defect we did not know about, Now it is so so hard to even go on with out her, I miss you baby

Emily was my special friend for 14 years. I loved her so much. I hope I will see her again someday.

She came from Show quality with a Couch Potato
Life with us as a pup.
She was my life till so fast God wanted you for his self.
10 1/2 yrs was not enough time with you but we were so glad to have had you for that time.
We will be togather again.
Mom

A wonderful and beautiful cat who was one of a kind and out of the ordinary. She loved and was very deeply loved, I hope her last moments spent on this earth were full of love and that she passed away peacefully. I can not wait to see you again, my precious Emily.

Emily you are loved, missed and thought of each & everyday til we are together again. Rest quietly my friend.

Our dear, sweet, second baby girl has gone to be with her sister. They are both missed terribly, but have furever left paw prints on our hearts.

Oh, Emma, my heart is breaking.
I want to thank you for all the love you gave me and for teaching me the lesson of vulnerability and unconditional love.
I grieve for your suffering and would do anything to have taken it away.
I wish I would have let you have ice cream, I wish I would have held you all night, and you know I would have if I had known it was going to be your last.
Most of all I just want to look in to your sweet, sweet face and tell you I miss you and will never forget you!
I hope you are at peace, my Sweeners.

Goodbye to our beloved Emma.
You left us much too early and we will miss you always. Your good buddies Mark, Angie, Sinopah and Wriggley miss you too. For now, run free with Misty until we all meet again at Rainbow Bridge.

I will miss you my lil' Emma.
I miss your whimpers, your bark, your noises, your toys and especially your warmth.
You loved me unconditionally, I told you all my secrets.
You knew me and now you are gone but not forgotten.
I will see you again.
I will miss you.

I feel like I have added so many of our little friends here in the last couple of years. Yet we love all of them so much and they brought so much joy to our lives. Our little Emma was a true albino hedgie. She had a personality all of her own. As with all of our other hedgies that have passed through our home, she was spoiled rotten and was like a member of the family. I am sure she is up running with all of her friends. Lily, Bella and Gonzo and Chillie and Cosmo right now. Until we see other again, we all love you.

To our beloved Emma. Though your time on earth was brief, you brought a lot with you. From your crazy run when you were excited to your loving kisses, you will NEVER be forgotten. The pain of your passing is still with us and we don't understand why you had to go, but we are relieved to know you are no longer in pain. Miss Emma Dilemma you were a joy from day one when we brought you home as a puppy. Your patience with your human brother Aiden was amazing. We love you forever and hope you are having fun playing on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. Goodbye my pretty girl, please visit us in our dreams.

May the light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Until we meet again, where ever you are God is and all is well.

To Emma, the kindest and most loving little dog who brought lots of love to our home.
She always looked and acted like a little puppy and she loved everyone she met. She looked more like a little white bear with black eyes and nose.
As the runt she was able to go with us everywhere hidden in her bag.
She would go shopping for hours or out to eat with us and never make a noise as long as she knew we were near. She was so kind she never hurt a soul.
She even allowed me to give her a puppy cut every month for the last nine 1/2 years. She never complained and acted as if she enjoyed the attention.
As tiny and sweet as she was at six pounds she was the neighborhood alpha dog.
She enjoyed a playful rumble, fiercely growling and always ending up on top no matter how big the dog.

Over the last 11 months she struggled with congestive heart failure.
In December she began to have seizures or sometimes just fall out for no reason.
Emma acted perfectly happy and puppy-like one day and on death's door the next.
People who did not see her bad days thought she was not ill. Due to her problems she came to work with us every day and brought happiness to everyone who came to the office. She slept with us every night craddled in our arms or pressed up against our side.

We thought we were preparing ourselves for this terrible day but had no idea how painful and empty her death would feel.
Emma is missed more than words could ever say.
She will never be forgotten and could never be replaced.
There is no other Emma. We were the lucky ones who found this little sweetheart and loved her.
I hope she knew how much she was loved.

I just wanted to acknowledge that our family pet dog Emma passed away tragically on Tuesday, June 5, 2007 in the early morning.
I am having a terrible time with overwhelming grief for the loss of one of my best friends.
She was always there for me, always loved me, through the good and the bad.
She needed me and I needed her more.
My head is filled with flashes of her life from a naughty puppy to an older, more frail version that she had become in recent years.
I could read her body language as well as that of any human being and at times, she was more loving and concerned than the people in my work and family life.
I feel a profound loss.
I just wanted to say what a wonderful, ever cheerful, ever loyal and loving dog she was.
Anyone who thinks dogs don't have the capacity to feel love and to inspire devotion from their human owners, has never really had a dog in their life and that's their loss.
There is a huge whole in my heart.
I can't go an hour without crying.
I think of her all day long and at night when I am trying to sleep.
I know the pain will ease in time, but such a loss is not easily filled.
My love and sympathy to anyone who has loved and lost a pet.
It's an excruciating pain.
I just wanted to wish everyone the best.
Enjoy your pet with you whole heart, while you have them.
It's precious and sometimes fleeting.
Best wishes to all.
Faye.

16 years is a great run. But as you got tired and couldn't go on, I had to put you out of your pain. Now you can rest. I will miss you and always think of you. And I will see you again. I know you will be waiting there for me when I come. Miss you and love you Emster.

We all miss you sssssssoooooooo much!!!We heard that you didn't have hip diplasia and it turned out that your amune system was attaching your nerves in your legs so you couldn't walk.It sounds funny because your amune system is suposed to help you.We miss you ssssoooooooo much and Kayla,8,can't wait to see you up in heven!!!!!!

Emma, you touched and changed us all for the better, we will love you forever.
Your family

She was and is the light of my life, and constant companion.
My heart is so broken.
The love and kindness in her soul was more than anyone could ask for.
I will be so happy when one day we can be together again.

You will always be in our hearts. You were a great show dog, fabulous mother and wonderful family dog. God speeed!

Goodbye for now my Emma.
You live in my heart, however, broken it may be today.
In time I won't hurt as much as I do now but throughout all time you will remain a part of my life, my thoughts, and all the days we spent together.
I will always sense your Love whenever I think of you and while you are gone in body, you remain in me because you became a part of my life and joy. Your loving, happy spirit remains so precious.
I Love you my Emma.
God Bless until we meet again on the other side of the Rainbow.

dear emma go in peace , we will miss you so much, but we will meet you again when are time is due , god bless good night my babe xxx

Emma was one of my first "foster moms". She had such a sweet soul. Cancer took her quickly. While she was sick she would stll purr & still cuddle. I know I'll see her again. She is without pain now.

This tribute is for a dog who made life worth living, showed joy in everything she did, remained brave and loving when medical problems limited her, and who left us last night due to complications with epilepsy and pancreatitis.

She was one of the best dogs I will ever have.
She will forever be in our hearts and memories.
I hope there is a dock somewhere in heaven where she can sit to keep watching all of the fish, and plenty of frogs to follow whenever she pleases.

We love you Emma, and will miss you always.
There is a heavy void without your delightful presence.
Be in peace, now.
Thank you for being our loving companion for as long as you possibly could be, until the very, very end.

Emma was my little sidekick for almost eighteen years.
She was so much fun to have around.
She didn't like other animals, but she loved people. She's been beside me through several moves, new jobs, the deaths of my husband and parents, illnesses, surgeries, and our sons moving away to start lives of their own. For the last three years, she has been at my side almost every minute. Emma had kidney disease.
On September 17th we released her from her pain.
I held her in my arms and felt her leave me.

Emma,
You were very loved,and still are. Granma misses you also. You were also a very good girl. I hope you are playing well with your friends. Until next time.

We were blessed to have our beloved Emma with us in perfect health up until the moment she had to undergo emergency stomach surgery. We are devastated that her death came so swiftly and unexpected. She will also be much missed by her 1 yr older brother Frank.
We ask for blessings so that we may find peace, remembering her always for the joy & laughter she gave us, and look for the day when we may again be reunited.

It is with heavy hearts we send out this message to let you know we had to say good-bye to our dear friend Emma today. She turned 11 on Feb 20. Emma was a sweet girl who touched a lot of people's hearts. Emma had a gentle spirit and will be missed dearly. We hope you enjoyed your time with us as much as we enjoyed you being part of our life.

We loved Emma so much.
She died after giving birth to five puppies.
We are taking care of them now.

Never supposed to live this long, never supposed to be able to walk.
You defeated them, you walked, ran, jumped,
Loved playing with your Sister, Loved the cottage and Scaring Spencer.
You weren't afraid of anything, not baths, not car rides.. not even vaccuums.
You were a truly happy boy.

I Loved You So Much, my baby. So full of love and Hope,
Not a care in the world.
I can't stop crying
I miss you, and i want you back
I miss that way you put your paw up to my face
I miss your crooked little tail.
I miss those precious eyes.
I miss the way you got excited when I woke you up every morning
I miss you calling me
Saying- "pay attention to me mommy, i love you"

I'll Love You forever, forever and always, forever and always my Emmy You'll be.

EMMET WAS OUR SWEET LITTLE OLD MAN AND WE WELL MISS HIM DEARLY. RUN WITH THE BIG DOGS EMMET WE LOVE YOU!!

Emmett is the best boy in the whole wide world. There are no words to describe his special talent for bringing love and acceptance to everyone he met. He loved every life he crossed, and each of those lives loved him. We are so incredibly blessed to have the honor of knowing, loving, and being loved by this sweet angel.

He crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Valentine's Day. Sort of fitting if you knew how huge and loving his heart is.

He is survived and honored by his Momma, Poppa, Step-daddy, and Step-mommy, his Grand-Mom, Grand-Pop, and nieces, nephews, and cousins. A few of the people who have touched Emmett's life and crossed over before him and who he is now reunited with in heaven are Grandma Graber, who I have asked to take care of Emmett until I meet up with him again; Wonder Dog; Arctic Cat; Cassie Cat; Taxi; Marley; Lucy and Willow.

Mr. Emmett Utley - you will forever be in our hearts as our beloved boy, our sweet angel boy, the best boy in the whole wide world. Be a good boy and listen to Grandma. And remember that we will see you again - I'm already looking forward to one of your special hugs.

Emmie~
You were my little baby, all 5 little pounds
of you. Now you are my little angel. You brightened
my life for 11 years. You left much to soon, I miss you waiting for me at the top of the steps when I come home, and looking into those big beautiful
green eyes of yours. I will always miss and love you, my sweet little girl.
Some day we will be together again.
I Love you ~
Mommie

I found Emmy one rainy day in August,1994, having searched endlessly for my special one. She was in the local pound, frightened and withdrawn. Our lives were so similar at that moment, I knew she was the one.
Through the years, Emmy had become my best friend, my child, the great love in my life. She was there for many moves, several failed relationships (especially family), she was just always there.
I suppose I hoped we would grow old together. It didn't happen that way. Having been diagnosed with renal failure some months back, she'd aged rather quickly. She lost her sight, her muscles began failing. She would no longer eat. But no matter how bad she appeared, she still LOVED with ever little bit of engergy she could muster.
My heart aches for you, my beautiful princess. I don't know how I will go on, but I must for Gizmo, Acey and Daddy. Acey will soon join you at the bridge. I love you, my baby, and I will be there soon to get you. I promise. Watch for me...I'll be home soon. I love you!

Daisy, we miss you terribly, and love you so much, and we take comfort in knowing that you're not hurting anymore.
We love you so much, and will remember you every day. Good Girl, Doodles.
Mommy and Leashie loves.

Our Foo passed peacefully in the arms of her Mom and Dad with the help of her vet, today 10/05/07.
Our little Empress was so very special and so very loved.
The loss of this little spirit will leave a permanent wound on our hearts.
Wounds do heal with time, leaving a scar; a protected, special spot where our memoried and love can be stored forever.
We who lived with her, will miss her every day and will look forward to the day that we can cross that Rainbow Bridge and hold her in our arms again.
To Foo:
Remember my baby, from my heart to your heart.
Mommy will love you forever.
All our love, Mommy and Daddy

she was just the best dog she seemed more as a human than a dog she thought she had be doing samething as we as family did, she had her tv show she liked watching was animal planet, and still today i see the show or pics of her and get very sad we luv you emu and you will not be 4gotten

Ena was a wonderful, loving dog. She was one of the sweetest dogs I have ever owned and feel very blessed to have had her in our family even if for such a short time. We found her at the dog pound, bursting full of energy, jumping up and down trying to get our attention as if saying "Choose me, I know you want to look how cute I am"!!!
She accepted every human she met along the way. Running up and greeting them with a lick on the hand or a jump on the body as if trying to hug them. She was so full of energy, always on the go, always wanting to be the center of all attention. We only had her 10 months...
Last week my boyfriend and I were watching a friends farm. My boyfriend had to go to town early and I kept her with me. I went out with another friend for dinner and when we came back we could not find her. We took the car out to try to find her but unfortunately the house was located on a major highway were she was hit by a car. I regret a lot about that night but what I regret the most was never realizing how much I really loved her. How I took her for granted and if I could do anything to get her back I would.
I will always remember her energy and unconditional love. No matter if you yelled at her or had to discipline her she always looked at you with such overwhelming trust and love. She was one of the greatest dogs I have ever owned and will miss her dearly.

Enya you were my best friend, I will miss you and cannot wait to see you again at the Rainbow Bridge.
I love you

... pappa misses you & i don't know what i'll ever do without you !!! ... please forgive me ...

A brand new star shines in the sky
Down from up above.
Ours for just a little time,
but now with god to love.
It was not ment to be like this
You should not have gone so young
the grief one day will fade away
but your memory shines on.

We will miss you our beautiful ray of sunshine
wait for us at the bridge.
Love: your mums and dads and all your Husky friends xx

I miss you so bad.
I missed hearing your snore today and the sound of your paws clicking on the kitchen floor.
There was no one to follow me around or sit by my side.
I miss you so much and wish you could be here.
Your daddy came home immediately to say goodbye, he's sorry he didn't have more time.
We both thought we'd be able to take you to the ocean one more time.
Your still with us in our hearts and we have your ashes here at home so you can be with us in our house still.
We're taking you with us on vacation next week too just so we can still look over you.
I just miss your familiar noises and your presence.
I'm sorry you had to go.
I hope to see you again on the other side.
We love you very much.
You were a big part of our family and now a part is missing.
I feel so lonely all day without you, you meant that much to me.
I know we'll see you again though. xoxo
Mommy and Daddy

Came into the practice as a stray by the name of Tommy Herbert- got his paw firmly in the door and stayed. Found to have diabetes and lived out the rest of his life here. I miss you and all your cantankerous habits. Hopefully you will find some peace now.
You were a good boy Enzo/Tommy?Herbert

Thank you for coming into our lives, making it better and giving us JOY! We will see you in Heaven

Ephraim was a wonderful puppy who stole my heart a 3 days old. We had him for only 6 weeks and 3 days, but he will remain in our hearts forever. I pray he is happy and healthy and is waiting for me. Ephraim is the brightest star in the sky to me. I miss you very much Effy!

Eppie, You have truly been the light of my life over the past 10+ years.
You helped save my life and I did the same for you.
You were always there for me with unconditional love and loyalty. You taught me so much about life & helped me make connections with some fabulous people.
You had an incredible spirit which I will forever carry with me in my heart. I miss you terribly; however, I find peace knowing that you are with Myrt and running freely without the pain which came with old age. Thank you for giving me so many years of genuine happiness, and for giving me permission to get another Aussie.

You were
a good
friend
and a loyal companion.
I will alway's love you.You were my first son.
I will miss you greatly till the day we meet again. I am glad you are not in pain no more.
never
forget me as I will never forget you my
dear friend. God keep you safe.

Erica was a very special cat whose personality was known by who ever came in contact with her.
She did not putt - it was more like a growl, and you never, ever touched her "puff" tail!
She was the boss of everyone and we all knew it.
It was indeed, something if she jumped into your lap.
That did not mean you should pet her, if only meant that she wanted to sit on your lap for a spell.
She was born an only "child" kitten and had her Momma and two "aunts" that raised her.
Needless to say, it was always her way or the highway.
We learned her likes and dislikes and did not trespass in her territory, especially the other cats, or they would get a hiss and a slap from her.
She was one very unique, loveable, in her own way, feline who traveled to many states and loved to ride in the car.
She has been greatly missed by her feline and human family.
Goodnight Erica, we all loved you and will be with you again one day.
Genie, Gillian, Baby Girl and Allen

To the best friend I ever had!
You were always so loving, compassionate, forgiving and full of
energy and life.
You made my life worth living.
If I didn't have to take care of Little Bit I'd just lay down and die, so that I could be with you once again. I love you my little guy and miss you more than I could ever explain to anyone here on this earth.
You were my family, my friend and you always watched over me as no one else ever did.
You cared about me as I did
about you.

I had to let my little boy go today.
He was so very sick and so very tired.
He was my shadow and he'll be sorely missed.
I love you, Erin.
You were such a good boy.
My heart is breaking.

My beloved Erma it was so hard for us to let you go. I know you fell your job on earth was not quite done yet.
Just know we loved you enough to let you go when you see your adopted brother Max tell him Hello and we love you both very much.

We'll keep a good eye on Sydney for you and some day she soon she will have a new brother or sister to show the ropes to just like you did with her.

I am lost without you, my beautiful little girl. Your love carried me through some very dark days, as it still does in your absence.
I will be eternally grateful that my life was blessed by you

Ernie, thank you for the time you gave us.
You are so intelligent, instinctual, and communicative.
I love you.
Thank you for saying goodbye.
Your family is heart-wrenched, so let them know you are okay.
Give your family a vision that you are well and comfort them.
Walk with God and your new life and families to come.

Pieces of us continue
in disconnected generations,
as a fallen puzzle is scattered
and put together in a different way.

You may swear you recognize
the eyes, once green,
and the eagerness of the head
eating.

You may hold back and see:
more muscular shoulders
and a fuller-tipped nose.
And yet, is it him?

"You don't know what you are talking about!",
they reply.
"Only he has those legs and that nose."
A gradual watching and relearning concludes
it could be him.
It is!

The call comes.
His eyes
are more golden, not green.
His shoulders are more muscular.
He is confident.
His nose is fuller.

It isn't him, and yet it is.
He has another name.
It will never matter.
He is welcome anytime.

Ernie was a wonderful friend and companion. He saw us through some good times, and we will miss him so much. He was so very special. We love you Buddy and will remember you always.

Ernie was one of three kittens that we adopted along with his Mama. All four kitties were ill, but Ernie seemed to be the most ill. He was the largest in the litter, but ended up being the smallest. I can remember picking him up and gently holding him. He was so sick at this point, he couldn't hold his little head up. His eyes had just opened, but he couldn't see because of the infection in his eyes. We started him and his litter mates and mama on amoxy drops. They all seemed to get better, except Ernie. We took him to our vet and they discovered he had an infected baby tooth, which they removed. Unfortunately, the infection had spread to his sinus cavity, and he recieved meds to clear up the infection every day. The brave little guy endured injections of penicillon, sulpha drugs (which made his skin hurt so we stopped that) and the amoxy drops. The drops never did clear up the infection, but it kept it under control. He always was there to greet us when we came home from work, usually with a string in his mouth, to entice us in a game of 'chase the string'. When we bent over to pick something off the floor, he would jump on our backs and snuggle our necks and purr. Every night he would crawl under the covers and snuggle, tucking his little head under our chins, and put one paw on our cheeks, then purr us to sleep. He loved to 'help' us brush our teeth by jumping on the sink and 'supervising'. He loved to chase millers and when we said 'Get the bug, Ernie' he would get it. That was a fun game for him and fun for us to watch him. We miss him dearly, but to watch him be in pain hurt more than not having him here. So we made the decision to end his suffering. I know he is happy now, and he is not sick. He gets to play like a kitty should. He'll be waiting for us with his string in his mouth, waiting for us to play with him.

Ernie was my first dog. He was not just a dog for me, he was my first assistent dog. But he did more than his work. He protected me in every situation. I always knew what he was thinking and he knew what I was thinking. We had a very special connection. I miss him so much... Ernie I will love you for ever...

With loving memories of my ginger and white boy,
who was takenfrom us so cruelly

I miss you but knew you were in good hands when you gave the joke gift I asked for to let me know you made it safely and that your ok.
I'll see you again some day. Mom.

It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I type this. Today I have done the hardest job I have ever done in my life. I helped my best friend Ernie to the bridge.

Last June, Ernie was diagnosed with bone cancer in his left shoulder. He had been doing quite well with it and staying virtually pain free up until two weeks ago. When I first became involved with greyhounds , I knew nothing about them. But soon after we got Ernie 7 1/2 yrs ago, we learned of the terrible disease that haunts all greyhounds. And at that time, I made a promise to Ernie and to myself that I would not put him through a bunch of treatments or an amputation in a desperate attempt to prolong his life another 6 months. When it came time for Ernie to go, I would make sure that he went with pride and dignity. He deserves that much. And that's what happened today. He went to the bridge laying on his favorite bed, his head in my lap, wearing his signature red bandana, and with his goofy grin on his face. I know I did the right thing. I know he would have wanted it this way.

Oh my God, I will miss you Ernie. I will miss your perpetual smile, the way you would sit on the couch beside me and watch tv; I will miss the way you would climb into my lap when you wanted attention, and the way you would "roo" to the Titanic theme on the clock. I will miss you eating my tomatoes off the bushes every summer; I will miss your drippy nose, and I will miss the way you would 'wolf' down your food and then cough a mouthfull all over the kitchen.

So go, my friend and run through the fields of grass at the bridge. Chase the butterflys and the possums. Run on the beach and play in the waves, chase the kites like you used to. Your buddies Chandler and Silver and Denali are there waiting for you. Run and play till you can't run anymore, then get up and do it again. But as you are running and playing, making new friends and finding old ones, keep looking over your shoulder. I will be there. We will meet again one day, and we will cross the bridge together.

My beloved Esa,
Not a day goes by that my heart does not ache and I am not missing you immensely. You were always my little boy of courage who stood by me always and forever. You entered my heart right from the start. We immediately formed a truly special bond the first day our eyes met and I brought you home. Thank you for all of the days, months and years of unconditional love, licking away tears and strength. You were and always will be my little boy and I love you forever. One day we will run to each others arms once again and the smiles will be enormous at that special rainbow bridge.
I love you my dear Esa,
your mommy

Esperance,my friend.
You were the best there was and will ever be!
I miss you so so much but I know you are where you were meant to be, in the stables of the Lord.
I am sure you are bossing everyone up there around.
Love you and miss you forever.

Esse was a very kind Dog. He never complained and was always happy to see his mom.
She will miss him every day when she leaves for and returns from work.
He was always there to welcome her with a wagging tail.

We still celebrate you and your presence around here, Ethan.
We love and miss you.
Thanks for showing us what true devotion and protection feels like.

My beautiful, sweet, trusting Ethan...you were here for too short a time. I treasure every moment I had with you and I thank you for learning to trust me. My heart is breaking for you and that I'll never hold you again or see you beautiful eyes. I'll miss you always.

My frightened little rescue, I pray the pain and suffering you endured early on is just a distant memory now and that you, Thatcher, and Chickie have all found each other and are playing endlessly till I get there, taking time in between to watch over me.
Feeding time will never be the same without that backwards dance of yours!
Rest easy Etheridge, it's all better now.......I love you, Mommy

My heart aches, yet I consider myself very blessed for having you for so many years, but it still isn't long enough.
God certainly brought us together, as He does with all of creatures. I had no plans on finding a puppy that day so long ago, but on a whim, Jen and I decided to stop at the animal shelter to see if there were any labrador mixed puppies, and sure enough, there were! And there you were, all scrunched up in the corner of a freshly cleaned but very wet kennel with all your brothers and sisters.
But you were the only one with long, curly hair on your ears and you looked so scared.
Karen asked us if we wanted to take you outside, and we did.
You then started rolling in the grass and sunshine and I knew then, I couldn't take you back to that kennel, I just had to take you home with us.
You turned out to be the sweetest dog we ever had. You never did anything wrong. And, as new puppies were introduced into the family, in your quiet way, you let them know that you were the alpha dog and they respected you even into their adult years. I swear, that you could just sit on the couch next to us and be petted all day, you were a quiet and gentle spirit.
But, age creeps up on all of us I guess.
By the time you were 13, you couldn't go on our hikes to the Sam Campbell trail and this had been what you enjoyed most in your life. Then you couldn't go up or down the stairs to go outside, but your Dad lovingly carried you despite the fact he too had a stroke.
I would worry about both of you when he carried you, worried that he would slip on the icy steps and you both would get hurt. But he loved you so much and he didn't mind. He said that you had been good to us all your life and in return for your sweetness, he would carry you.
But, in the end, not all the caring and love he or I gave you was enough. You were sick and we had to make the decision to let you go. It was selfish of us to want to keep trying to make you better. You couldn't do the things you loved to do when you were young and now your poor old body was giving up on you.
As I write this, I have tears streaming down my face, because in my minds eye, I still see that scared little puppy with the curly ears that I fell in love with so very long ago. So many memories are attached to you. Even though we still have your friends Shelby and Brody, the house is strangely quiet.
You are so very missed.
Our hearts ache. Yet, I know that someday, probably not so very far off, we will meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.
My heart tells me this is true, I have no doubt. So, my "little black buddy pal", have fun and enjoy being well again. We will miss you more than you would ever know. Keep looking for us, for someday we will be coming and we can all be together again.
Love you and miss you,
Your Mom and Dad

Eugenie was the most amazing dog ever.
It wasn't just the amazing things she could do, like fetching a soccer ball as well as any soccer player by rolling it with her muzzle, or picking out the exact toy you asked for (clearly, she understood English).
It was mostly that she was a dog who plainly understood what you were thinking and tried to make everyone happy.
Everyone who knew Eugenie loved her.
I will miss her terribly.

Eva, you were the best dobergirl a Mom could ever have. I love you so much, breath baby girl breath. I hope you have found Pua by now and are running thru all the fields of flowers. Take care of Kai when he gets there as he will need you, Just like he needed you here.
Love your Mom

Eva lived most of her life in a kennel.
She came into our lives in Feb. 2003.
She couldn't even climb a step.
She has since learned what life is about by being her mommy's special girl.
She loves me and I love her.
Her adoring brown eyes and smile always made me smile.
I didn't have her long enough, but in the 4 1/2 years I did, I've learned how to love a pet so much and now how to grieve.
No one could take her placeGoodbye Eva my Sissy Girl.
I love you so much.
--your mommy

"She is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are her life, her love, her leader. She will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of her heart"

You are thought of often and loved. Hope the Rainbow Bridge is like a dream come true. xoxo

Evie came into my life about 11 years ago.
Upon returning from work, my son greeted me with the statement, "I didn't bring it home."
After inquiring as to what 'it' was, he led me to a little bundle of skin and bone, covered with wounds, huddled in the garage.
Apparently, this little soul had come into the cool darkness (it was about 110 degrees outside)to escape the heat and, perhaps, to die in solitude.
She seemed to be unable to walk, dragging her back legs occasionally, and not interested in anything.

I already had a Doberman, Helga, and a Border Collie, Sally.
Helga had recently had surgery so my finances were very low.
Not being able to not do anything for this little baby, I called my vet who suggested that I try to give her some water only and see if she would survive the night.
The next day, she was still there, refusing to sleep in the bed we had provided, prefering a small corner.
But, this time, I was greeted with a small wag of the tail.
I left more water and started on to work but half way there, called in and told them I was too ill to come in.
I headed home, scooped her up, and took her to the vet.

My vet took her in and evaluated her.
She needed surgery for many of the wounds she had, including her ears which looked as if chunks had been taken out of them.
She remained in hospital for a few days.
For all of her work, the vet charged me for only supplies used; she was well aware of how much Helga had cost me less than two weeks before.

So, here was this little emaciated Boxer pup, with tubes coming in and out of her.
I had to irrigate these twice a day, a process that I am sure was not easy due to my inexperience.
But, she was stoic and accepting, even giving me a little wag now and then.
I had told the vet that i would try to find her a good home after she recovered.
When I returned to her office, she asked if I had found a home.
I told her yes; she could put her address as mine.

We were still without a name for this little girl.
The week before, Mike Tyson had taken a chunk out of Evander Hollyfield's ear.
Being an avid boxing fan, we decided that Evanda would be fitting and, with time, she became Evie.
(She was also referred to as Evil Dog, Evie Girl, and the simple Eve).

Sally had been the alpha of the group for several years after Evie arrived.
But, at age 16, Sally developed pancreatic cancer and passed away.
After her departure, Helga and Evie would occasionally disagree who was the boss (Helga was supreme) but they loved each other and became sisters.
It was apparent that I was at the center of their world as they would take turns sitting next to me, patrolling the house during the night, and playing with me.
But, Helga, at age 11, decided that it was time to go to Sally.
This devastated me as it was not expected.
An insidious tumor had kept recurring on Helga's chest and surgeries had not been able to keep it at bay.
I was devastated.

Evie became my constant companion.
She also mourned these losses but she was determined to take over some of the tasks Helga had done with me.
Within a few months, Evie and I were inseparable.

Over the years, Evie had experienced problems with her back.
Examinations showed no broken bones or slipped discs.
But, we babied her back just the same.
Being an fisherman and, before I became disabled, a hiker, Evie was the outdoors-pup that I had longed for in a companion.
When I moved to Wisconsin, she developed a love for snow and would make people smile when we would go out with her boots, scarf, and bomber jacket.

By this time, another Boxer had come to our home.
Another little girl, Talullah Mango, or Lucy.
Evie liked her.
However, their friendship was short lived as Evie's back started to cause more problems.
We had decided that we would get her a wheelchair for dogs if her back legs would not support her and she was healthy.
However, a tumor developed in the cervical spine which affected her front legs.

We considered taking her to surgery at the university but the thought of losing her during the procedure was unbearable.
I decided that such a good friend and loving companion deserved more than that.

I have to admit that when Helga left, I could not stay.
It was a moment I have always regretted and I had made a promise to myself that I would never let that happen again.
This time, the vet understood how hard this was for me.
I took her to the hospital to prepare her.
What I experienced was something that I had never expected during such a traumatic time.

Melissa, the vet, had Evie resting on a bed of heated pads and a warmed blanket.
She had been brushed with a sparkling gel which made Evie look luminous.
On her collar, Melissa had added a pair of red ruby slippers, so Evie would forever know that there is no place like home.
I laid down beside her and Evie cuddled in as if we were in bed at night.
Then, I let her go.

I had expected to be hysterical at this point but I have to admit I found that this was a wonderful moment in my life.
Evie had been there for me through some really tough times.
I had become disabled and unable to walk for an extended period of time.
Evie never left my side during my recuperation.
When I was able to get into a wheelchair, she went everywhere with me, learning to carry things for me.
In the moment of her death, I found a deeper peace than what I had ever experienced in the knowledge that we had loved and helped each other through our lives.

I miss her terribly.
I think I hear her sometimes and a few nights ago, I would swear I saw her face by my bed, the way she used to wake me up if she had to go out.
Maybe it is wishful thinking but I truly believe that she will be with me always.
We shared so much life together that a little thing like death surely can't keep us apart.
And, if it is my imagination, that is okay too.
I truly believe that while there may not be a rainbow bridge, i know that all my babies will be waiting for me when I die.
If that is all that is waiting for me at that time, who cannot say that is heaven?

Evil was a reject.
Nobody wanted him at the pet store, so I got him as part of a package with cage, toys, bowls, food, hamster for $10.
Apparently he was mean and difficult.
We had our differences and I had many a bitten finger, but after some time and someone to understand him, he was lovable, cute, cuddly, and one kickin' hamster.
Evil he was, loved he is.

Vita, Baby Girl, I love you so much. I still can't believe you're really gone. You were our first born and you'll always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you for being such a wonderful friend to Eric and Me, and such a kind, patient fur sister to Connor and Caiden.Your power, strength, intelligence and courage are inspiring. It's so hard to imagine our family without you right here. You were taken so quickly from us, we didn't get to say goodbye. I pray that from were you are you know just how much you were loved. May God keep you in his arms until we meet again. Mommy and Daddy.

My dear Ewok do you know how much you are truly missed
what I wouldn¡¯t give to have you jump on my lap and give me a kiss
I am trying to only remember all the good times we shared
the way we would make eye contact and knew that we cared.

I loved the way you said *momma* when I asked you to speak
how you would sleep all snuggled on the floor at me feet
When you heard thunder you would let me know when a storm was near
by following close to me, sitting on my lap and how it comforted your fear.

We¡¯ve shared so much through the years since you were born
like toast & eggs in the morning and at night, popcorn.
Your favorite food was chicken you loved french fries too
also candy and pizza and cooked carrots from the stew.

Retrieving your blanket when thrown, growling, rolling over, shaking hands
sitting up and saying please, playing with your food, eating it where it lands.
All the tricks you learned to do, the many treats you so deserved.
Thank you for all the love you gave to me without you saying a word.

You hated to take a bath but loved to lay by the fire
And sleeping and then chewing on your steak bones for many hours
When it was raining there was no way you would go outside
and always shook when I took you in the car for a ride.

Another page has turned in my life after loving you 18 years
Your absence runs so deep in my heart I can¡¯t fight the tears.
You touched my life in so many ways always there for me
You knew when I was sad inside and would try and comfort to me.

I am so proud of you and feel so honored to be with you for so long
You taught me many things and one was how to love and be strong.
You were by my side when I was happy and when I was down
Never judging me only loving me unconditionally always around.

Thank you Ewok for giving so much and asking for so little
for sharing your life with me, for meeting me in the middle.
Nothing will ever replace the love I have in my heart for you
I am looking forward in seeing you again someday, I hope you are too.

Zeke was the best dog in all the universe and parallel universes put together ...times 5.

Zeke, mamma loves you.
I am so sorry that death came in the way it did.
We tried and tried to fight it.
I miss the way you smelled inexplicably, like the color purple.
I miss your kisses and hugs, and your soft ears.
I miss you at the foot of my bed,on my feet, for so many years I shifted myself around you.
I feel you with me; but I look forward to the day when we will be together again. We can play "Where's Mama?" and I will let you find me, under the covers and overjoyed to hug you again.
you were fine and mighty. loving you always, mamma.

Yesterday, January 18, 2007, I had to make the difficult decision to have my beloved cat, Ezmeralda put to sleep as advised by my veterinarian due to her age and failing kidneys. She was 20 years old and would have been 21 in the Spring. She was my first pet I have ever had. She appeared on my back doorstep in 1986 with her mother and another litter mate. Ezmeralda was a wild little wide-eyed long haired black cat and I immediately fell in love with her. She was the one I adopted. I was able to tame her and she eventually became part of my household. I have so many memories of the last 20 years with her and am so glad I took lots of pictures from her youth to her old age when she was failing in health. I am missing her so much tonight. This afternoon, I compiled all the pictures I have of her and have spent this evening viewing all of them over and over again. Someday, Ezmeralda and I will be together again at Rainbow Bridge. Until then, rest in peace, Ezmeralda.
