I have just lost the most beautiful friend in the world.
Hadaas was not just a pussy cat but my baby for 14 years.She was the most loving and kind baby anyone could ever dream of having.
I am thinking of her daily and am distraught at this time, as her sister Mumtaj is also grieving so much
Our home here in Norwich in the UK will never be quite the same
We miss you my darling Haddie

Malcolm Crane

We will love you and miss you forever. Thank you for all the love you shared with us all these years.

Greg and Lori

You were a wonderful little dachshund. We will miss your "smile" and your antics.
You really gave a good fight and sadly we lost the battle.
There will never be another "baby Hagen".
We know you are with God.
Fred and Dena and "Miss Erda" miss you and love you very much!

In memory of our beloved baby who gave us eight wonderful years of love.
We will miss you so very much, but know that you will be waiting for us when we cross over.
In the meantime, we can rest in comfort knowing that you are running, swimming and playing, and that your Spirit is with us every day of our lives.

We love you Haile!

(written by your Grammy who will miss her "Haile Bird")

Josh Gleason and Lindsay Holbrook

My Dear Hailey-Bear,

I miss you more than I thought possible. A large piece of my heart shattered when you left this world. My only consolation rests in the fact that you have been freed from the shackels of your human body. You are pain free for the first time. I know that you are running with the Angels; as uninhibited as your spirit always has been. Say "hi" to Comet for me.
Love Always,
Mommy

Hailey was only in my life for a short time, but the love and laughter she brought to my life will remain in my heart forever.Rest in peace my friend.I'll be seeing you!

Janet

You were my baby, my sweetheart, my best friend. You made me who I am. I am so glad you were in my life. I miss you so much. I hope where ever you are, you are happy, you miss me too, and you feel like a young bunny again.

I will keep you in my heart always.

Show me the bunny! Show me, show me!

Cheryle

Some might say that I looked after you, but in reality, we looked after each other. Thank you, Hailey, for 10 years of your love and companionship. I've known no other cat as sweet and loving as you.

Theresa Duque

Hailey,
Thank you for your love and friendship always, even when you were sick. We miss you more than words can say.
Love,
Mom and Dad

Even though Hairy was Jeff's cat, I came to love him.
He was very special to me. I loved to comb his long, beautiful, soft fur.
He was very attentative to me too.
I will miss Hairy immensely.

Sue Mosior

Beautiful Haley Girl.
We all miss you very much.
Now you can hear again, your eye sight is perfect and you can run and play like you did as a pup.
We laid you to rest in a beautiful spot in the back yard.
In the spring all the flower bulbs we planted will start blooming.
A beautiful spot to remember you by and sit and chat too.
The reunion at the Rainbow Bridge will be wonderful.
Love you...see you at the bridge!!

Jean, Mark, Cody & Harley

Tooter-

We miss you so much! I never imagined how hard it would be to let you go.
But, we wanted to let you go before you started to experience pain.
We never thought that cancer would take you life.

You have always been the best girl.
From the day we saw you, we knew that you were the best.
You were there when we came home from our wedding and you went on our honeymoon with us.
You have seen all of our different homes, and welcomed our kids home from the hospital.

You were the best girl for the kids.
You were so gentle with them and you never snapped at them. They crawled all over you for years and you just let them.

Daddy and I don't know what life is like without you.
You have ALWAYS been here.
I feel many times, you kept us together.

I will miss so many things about you.
You beautiful eyes, your soft ears, your soft brown nose.
And before your surgery, the way your tongue was so long, you could give us kisses from across the room.

You have brought us so much joy and yesterday was the hardest day of our lives.
We were with you
yesterday and I hope that we will always live in your heart because, you will always, always be in ours.

Please know that if we could have kept you for longer we would have.
I wish we could have had you forever.
Twelve years was not long enough with you.
But, I know you were tired.
We could tell.

We love you Tooter.
And I pray that one day I will see your beautiful eyes again and that I can hold you again and rub your tummy.

There is so much more that I could say but we both remember it all in our hearts.

You are the best and we miss you dearly!
Love Momma and Daddy

Our precious little Haley.
We were so blessed to have shared our lives with you for 15 1/2 years.
We loved your spinning and tail wagging so much and just everything about you!
You were so beautiful and so sweet.
We are already missing you so much.
Have fun playing with Kelsey and Lacey at the Rainbow Bridge until we see you again some day.
Love, Mom & Dad

Haley was our heart.
She was sweet and loving and brought us so much happiness.
I hated for you to leave us but I could not bare the thought that you might be hurting or to see you unhappy.
We love you and miss you terribly.

Cathy & Ariana

Haley was a beautiful hamster.
She was very loving and would often climb all over my hand and run all over the bed.
She was very sweet tempered and never bit me.
She would only sniff at my fingertips.
She loved apples and running on her little wheel.
I loved her a lot and I will really, really miss her.
:(

Inez Togle

My beloved, sweet Haley was hit by a car, and died instantly.
She was adored by all who her knew her.
A beautiful dog, with a wonderful personality. Always so happy, excited and playful. She is buried under the pine trees in the back yard, amongst the flowers.
There is a hole in my heart that will never be filled.

Bonnie Rosenberger

My life changed the day I brought you home. I have never had such a pet with such grace and a sweet personality. She was loved by all that came across her. My life changed the day she died. I miss you and can not wait to be reunited with you once again, my sweet, sweet Haley.

Jennifer Klayo

Haley was a beautiful obedient dog.
She loved to run free off leash at the park and at the beach.
She loved her sister Summer and her brother Jasper.
We will love her forever.
We look forward to seeing her again across the rainbow bridge.

Susana

In memory of my beautiful baby girl, who was the sweetest loving schnauzer, and I was lucky to be her mommy. She will be deeply missed by me, her sheltie sister, and her aunts,cousins and dog cousins and grandparents.
She was a truly a gift from God.
We will miss her everyday. I especially will miss her gentle pawing everyday for a rub, or her snuggle next to me in bed.
XOXOXO Mommy and Cody

Halle, I miss you terriby and wish so very much that we could have had more time together. You were such a strong girl and never gave up the fight. Go run, my love; we'll catch up with you in a little while.
Love you, Mommy, Daddy and your son,Logan

Halle was not just our dog but a member of our family and a great companion.
We were lucky to have you in our lives for 11 years but you left too soon. There isn't one day that passes that I don't think about you and hope we brought you as much joy as you brought us.
I know you're watching over us and it brings some peace knowing you and Tawny were there waiting from Grandpa to arrive.
You will always be my HattiGirls and the one I loved the most!

Dar and Harry

Oh Halle how we miss you. The house is so quiet without you here, I dont hear your dancing around to be fed or your constant talking to get your way. We feel so lost without you, and comet just doesnt know what to do with himself. We are trying our very best to be brave but there is such a hole in our hearts now. Oh how we wish we would have known of this terrible thing growing inside of you, you know we would have done everything in our power to have it taken care of. I think you never acted like it was there so we would not be worried and sad. We love you Halle more then words can say. Please wait for us on Rainbow Bridge. We will bring your tennis ball that we put on the shelf in a display case. I know it is a raggedy one but you never liked new ones. We love you, Mom Mommie and Comet

We miss you so much and love you so much.

Melinda Galvan

Halle,

Thank you for adding so much to our lives. You were a wonderful companion for the short time you were with us. I hope your journey was a wonderful one. Hopefully you are surrounded by tennis balls and frisbees, oh how much fun you have with those. If I failed in your care I am truly sorry, I could not stand to see you wither away any more. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being such big part of my life. The void is immeasurable, the memories are many. You will be by my side at all times. Good girl Halle!

Love Todd

Our six year old Black Lab Mix named Halley, had her life tragically cut short in the early morning hours of November 7th, 2007. We woke up as usual and had a ritual of putting her collar on and she would be so excited in the morning that she would run down the hallway - turn to see if my Husband was close behind, then dart down the stairs to go outside. Well, she ran down the hallway, paused to look at my Husband - but she must have missed a step and fell all the way down the stairway. I heard a terrible thump and asked my Husband if she was okay. He said she wasn't getting up and to hurry to find a phone. We called 911, but they said they don't help dogs. She was so much more than a dog to us. She was our child. She was gone in a few heartbreaking minutes and our hearts were shattered. My husband had even tried to resuscitate her. Nothing worked - she was just gone. I will never forget her warm hugs. The way she was so excited to start each day. Her love of popcorn and bananas. The way she loved going to the park or running with all her might. She would sleep underneath the fan in our living room on her back. My Husband and I would joke that she looked like a turkey when she did this. She would burp after her morning breakfast. I don't know how to keep going without her. She made life more fun. Since her death. I watch as our crystal rainbow maker goes around in our window. Beautiful rainbows dance around our house. I imagine it's Halley sending kisses and hugs to us from Rainbow Bridge. I know she's there waiting for us. Someday we'll be together forever. All of us, and never have to say goodbye again. Until that day, our hearts and home will be empty. We will try to fill our days with the love that she gave us. We will try to carry on the best we know how.

Halley,
Thank you for being the absolute best girl in the whole wide world. There are no words to express the joy and love you have brought to us. God really blessed us to be your Mommy and Daddy. We'll love you forever. Wait for us on Rainbow Bridge and have fun running through Heaven's fields and playing with the other doggies up there. Take naps in the sunshine, eat snacks and play. Grandma & Grandpa and Anne Marie are up there too. They'll help take care of you until we get there. Be good for them, I know you will. Hugging you with all our hearts.
Love Forever,
Mommy and Daddy

Ham Ham aka Jamon Jamon aka Hamwell L. Jackson aka Hamworth Miller...we miss you a lot. You were my little boy and I will never forget you. You were so comical and your expressions were priceless. If it wasn't for you we wouldn't have our little Sugar. I wish you could of stayed a few hours longer so I could of said goodbye to you. When I got on that plane, who would of known that was the last time I would of saw you. You had a good life for a hamster.

Naomi

Ham Ham...we will miss you forever.

Mong Mei Luan & Samuel Loh

You were my dearest friend for ten good years. You had your skin and thyroid issues, you went through an emergency intestinal blockage, but like a true terrier, you were such a trooper right to the end. You taught me so much about dogs.

Run hard at the Rainbow Bridge, Hamish. You are whole again, young again, with no skin issues to bother you -- and you are, and always will be -- loved deeply.

Meaghan Edwards

My Best Friend.
For Seventeen Years You Were There for Me
Through the Good Times and the Bad
You Made me Smile When I was Down
And Laugh When I was Sad.

Missing You Till We Meet Again !!!

Stuart and Misty

Sleep well my beautiful boy. Mummy loves you and misses you so very much. You were a baby and it wasn't your time... I will miss you all my life. A kinder gentler dog this earth will never know. To turn around and you not be there is too painful, I hope you are happy where you are. We will meet again. Until then, please take extra special care of yourself and watch over me. I love you, until we meet again xxx

Gemma McLaughlin

Just to say we love you and miss you,'Mish...Pray for us.
love always, Mommy

More than a companion.

Jason Longtin

Our angel Hamlet was a bundle of love.
Loved by everyone, he was the most lovable, sweet boy.
Hamlet will be missed my Mommy Carrie, Daddy John, and Doggy Lola, and Kitty Ophelia.
Everyone who met Hamlet adored him.
Hamlet - you were the closest thing to an angel we have ever known.
We find comfort knowing you are in such a beautiful place. We love you!!!

Carrie and John Haines

Hamlet, Hammy, Hamkins, Ham-e-let, Bones, Mr. Bones, Beauty boy.
You mean so much to be Ham.
I thank you so much for the most beautiful connection that we had.
You are one big love.
Your sister is coming to join you today sweetheart.
Your always in my heart and soul and I still sing our Gordon Lightfoot song! :)
I'll see you again my boy.
Love Always,
Your dog nanny Lynda

Hamlet,

We miss you so much and feel devastatingly sad over losing you.
We thought we were providing you with the best food money could buy and find it excruciatingly painful that the food we gave you was poison, and that we gave you food that took you away from us.

You were my first cat, beautiful, loving, gentle, playful.
My memories of you will remain as vivid 30 yrs from now as they are at this moment.
My whole life was built around you, and I see u everywhere - my email address, pictures, names of so many things were named after you.
My beautiful pet, I hope you can forgive me for giving you that tainted food, I hope someday I could forgive myself.
Even though I know you know I had no idea, I still feel horrible that it was my hand that fed you bad food.

I love you, my little sweety, always and forever.

Your companions,
Shari and Walter.

Hamlet you will be missed everyday.
You are loved and will be in our thoughts everyday.
We know that you will be waiting for us.
Please have health and fun until we meet again.
Remember always that you are a beloved member of our family and will be in our thoughts every day.
I don't think there will be a day that goes by that I don't talk to you.
Thank you for sharing your long life with us.
You are an irreplaceable member of the Songer family.

Love,
Mommy, Dad, Alyson,Emma, Luna, Gizmo and Muffin

My dearest Hammy,

I miss you very much... You were a very big part of my life and now you are gone... I still remember the first time I got you and you ran away into my closet and I could tell you were a playful little hammy... You escaped twice afterwards and yet you would still come back!
I miss you terribly and it's been two weeks now and I still look at your pictures... I miss you running in your wheel, being on my shoulder, and watching me as I studied...

You had the biggest heart in the whole world and you gave me so much love!

I hope to see you again Hammy Yoyi...

Love always,
Mommy

I'm so sorry if you weren't happy with me but I am glad that you have touched my life even for a short time. Thank you, Hammy and I hope you're happy in heaven with your family. :)

Monika Ortega

Hammy was the most gentle and lovable hamster....he was the best! I know you were sick but you waited until my birthday to go to sleep and I will miss you so much.
I love you Hammy.

Makenzie Staples

Hammy was a very special and sweet hamster. He never once bit me or anyone else. We all loved Hammy alot and he will be greatly missed.

Donielle

Hammy may have only been with me for a short time, but I have enjoyed every minute I was able to spend with him. He will be greatly missed by everyone that has ever met him.

Cody Purdum

My dear, sweet baby dog, you were & will always be loved so very much.
Thank you for the love, joy & laughter you gave us over the years.
Thank you for accepting and protecting our babies (Sydney & Brandon) no questions asked when we brought them home.
Thank you for the companionship and caring.
For all these reasons and so many more, you will be greatly missed.
Our hearts are heavy.
You were such a presence in our home and now you are gone.
I'm sorry I couldn't always take the time to spend with you, Puppyman.
It seems there were always things to do.
I guess I didn't realize how few tomorrows were left.
Pupper, thanks so much for being a part of our lives.
It was an honor & a privilege.
You were the most incredible dog with the sweetest personality.
You will be spoken of often and always with a smile or a laugh.
Everyone who met you, fell in love with you.
You were beautiful inside & out.
Until we see you at the bridge, play with Bouche, Fenwick, Ms. P, Corsica, Poppy, Cuervo & Xena.
They no doubt welcomed you with open paws.
And when the time comes that another puppy joins the family, perhaps you could guide him (Puppy Syd won't tolerate any female competition) in his new environment.

We love you!
We miss you terribly!

Love,

Mommy (Lisa), Daddy (John), Baby Syd, Brandon, Auntie Mo, Brianna, Puppy Syd, Serena, Yoshi, Flash Cat & JJ.

A tiny white fluff ball, one blue eye, one amber eye, pink nose, ears and paddy paws, this was you at 12 weeks old.
My Sis and I brought you down to your Special Mummy, our Mumsie, a couple of weeks after we lost our Dad.
You climbed out of your carrier, walked boldly across the kitchen floor and ate a spider that was moving across the floor, thats how you got your name Hannibal Lector.
For thirteen years you loved and looked after Mumsie, her Best Friend and companion. Never staying out for longer than an hour before you would return to check that Mumsie was ok, making sure you got some loves and hugs for a minute or so, before going back out for another hour.
So loving, never once extending your claws out in temper. You even put yourself between Mumsie and a dog that you thought was going to hurt Mumsie. Such a brave boy.
We miss you gently patting our faces to wake us up because you want an audience to watch you eat, you sitting there with your back to us, ignoring us, however much we called your name because you did not fancy what was in your dish.
Although you never meowed, only twittered, the house is so silent now you have gone.
We know you did not want to leave us, you fought so hard those last few weeks to stay but we could not let you suffer once we knew you were in terrible pain, so we sent you to Daddy, Tommy and Jay.
Four days after you went to heaven Aunty Chelles & Uncle Charle's Buster followed you but you were probably there to meet him and show him the ropes.
You will never be forgotton Hani, you are in our hearts forever. Our little Braveheart.
Loves and Hugs
Your Special Mumsie, Aunty Denise and Aunty Kelly

Hank was the sweetest dog ever.
He had many healh issues, but won them all.
Even at 15, we thought he could once again beat the odds.
He did not.
Our hearts break and yet we know we were blessed to have him in our lives.

Sandy and Joe

My Dear companion-left me unexpectantly,he is Greatly Missed.Hank was a Hunter,Guard,Comic,Confidont,Footwarmer,Bedhog,Silly Oaf.Hank came from a liter of 9 puppies born in this household,he was the 7th one born,we put little tags on thier tails 1-9 so we could tell them apart,#7Hank escaped all the time from the welpingbox and play fence area he would climb over it,4 ft tall fencean (ESCAPEE)I will never be able to replace such a Great Friend he was one of the Best-See you again someday Buddy.

Love Paul E. Genaw

My precious baby boy, now you have no pain and we will be together again.
I'm sure Tasha was there waiting for you and I hope she didn't bite you this time.
You will always be in our hearts because no baby was as special as you.
We'll never be able to watch a western without thinking about you and how much you loved them.
Plus all the animal commercials.
I'm so glad you got to have your birthday and Christmas so you could open your presents.
And the snow so you could play in it.
You'll always be Hanky, mama's boy.
And you'll always be a part of me, my best friend, my buddy.
I love you.

Lynda Byers/Jim Picard

Hank was my best friend.
He was my anchor when my husband was serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He will live in my heart forever.

Teresa Fonseca

I lost my best friend hankie and my heart is heavy.
grew up believing that when a soul dies, you pray for it so that it will go to Heaven.
I prayed tonight for Hankie to go to Heaven and then I realized that he didn’t need prayers because he had the perfect soul.
Hankie was all about love.
He didn’t have a mean bone in his body.
His soul purpose in his short 10 years was to spread love.
I never met any ‘being’ like Hankie.
I never met any human who wasn’t touched by Hankie.
Hankie’s purpose in life was to give love.
That was it!
He was put on this earth with a smile that wouldn’t end, and when he smiled, the whole world smiled with him.
He never did anything wrong.
All he wanted was to give love
and to receive love.
Nothing wrong with that!
I believe that is God’s purpose.

I will miss my Hankie.
I already miss him so.
What is left are wonderful memories.
Everyone in my neighborhood knew Hankie.
People on the St. Croix who I didn’t even know would see my boat and yell, “Hi Hankie”.

There is a purpose for everything in life.
Hankie was put in this world to show me true, pure love.
When things got tough, he was there.
He died on the 13th anniversary of my wedding.
I believe that was for a reason, to bring me full circle.
To realize that life is short, make the most of it.
Be love, give love and live love.
The only thing Hankie ever did ‘wrong’ was to wag his tail so hard that he would knock things off of a table that would break.

Hankie had a wonderful last weekend of his life.
We launched the boat.
He ran around the marina, full of life, greeting everyone as if to say he missed not seeing them over the winter.
He lived life to the fullest up through Saturday.
He was very tired on Sunday, I thought it was because he ate something that was disagreeable to him. I brought him into the vet today to find out that he had a very large cancer tumor in his heart.
He died in my arms, he was very peaceful and looked at me with so much love as his loving heart got tired and went back to God.

Hankie = Love.
I miss my beloved Hankie but will cherish the lesson he taught me.

Becky Weber

Baby I love you. You are the most awesome spirit I have ever known. It's been my absolute pleasure to have been able to have you in my life.

Ali

We miss you every day.

Todd Faulkner

Hanna, thanks for all of the wonderful memories you brought to us over the years.
You were a blessing in our lives.
We will never forget you.
You have a piece of our hearts always.
Be well sweetie!

Amy and Chris Prewett

Hannah was a beautiful golden retreiver/lab who my husband brought to me in a basket not long after she was weaned from her mother.
We enjoyed many happy times together as she grew up, camping walks, car rides and just everyday life.
When my husband left it was a hard time.
I was almost alone in my house for the first time in my life but Hannah and my 2 cats were with me.
Hannah stuck by me through it all and lived with me another 10 years after that as my best and most trusted friend.
As I had no children of my own, she was like my child to me.
Even when her health began to fade with age she was determined to be strong and overcome her difficulties.
She was quite inspiring.
The day came when I had to make the hardest decision I can ever remember making. Despite our efforts to help her overcome her health problems I had to accept that she was suffering and there were things that were making suffer and that we just could not fix.
On the morning of the day I had scheduled for her to be put to sleep she actually got much worse and I think might have passed on her own soon, so I felt I was doing the right thing.
Still it was unbearable for me to be put in that position.
She gave me one last look as she was taken back be put to sleep.
I think she knew.
Still she had lived a good life and she was 15 or 16 years old, which I'm told is a long life span for a lab/retriever.
She was a gentle soul with a strong will and I will always be inspired by my dog's bravery and determination.
I miss her terribly but I believe she is out of pain and in a good place.
I wish strength and courage to all of you who have to go through this with your pets.
It is hard but sometimes it is the only gift you have left to give. Love them while you have them. Do the best you can to provide a good home for them. Find the wisdom to know when it is time to let go.

Wendy Holbrook

Hannah was a beautiful cat until she became very ill with kidney disease.
We used to watch all the animals and birds together.
If she were sleeping and I saw a chipmunk outside, I would call to her and she would wake up and come running.
I will miss her, but I know she is in heaven with her friend Sammy.

Joan Priest

Run free with your friends.
You were a good cat and will be missed.

Cally

I lost my shadow, Hannah was my baby my friend and companion.
Up to the end she followed me everywhere.
She left behind those of us who love her much

Janie Hegedus

Hannah was a unique little dog.
She had a great personality and was a very close friend.
She acted more like a person than a dog.
She is greatly missed.
I can't believe she is gone.

Sue Daigle

Hannah Bear taught us the joy of playing.
She was always ready with her ball or to play "Hide and Go Hannah" with the kids.
Such a blessing and a joy to have in our lives for such a short while.
We miss her and love her so much!!!!

Linda Pouliot

Hannah aka banana girl...you are that kind soul of a collie and I will never forget you.
May you be whole again and running free at the bridge with Cassie and Maddie.

Pattie

Hannah Banana Girl, what can I say?
You are the sweetest little golden girl that I know.
Thanks for all of the love, fun times and companionship.
I know you will be with your brother Hamlet now.
Take care my girl. I miss you and love you so.
I'll see you again.

Your dog nanny,
Lynda

When I was with you I felt like I was next to royaly. You will always be the most beautiful, graceful horse in the world. When God designed the perfect horse it was you Hannah. Freddy, the Baby, Cameo, Jill and Rose will miss you terribily. My heart is so broken that I do not know what to do. Please find Veida and tell her I miss her and love her. My world is a very empty place without you girls. Run free Hannah. I love you so much!!!!!

Oh Hannah, my heart is so heavy. I had no idea you were so sick when I took you to the vet yesterday. I had no idea it would be your last ride and you wouldn't be coming home. You and I have been through so much together and you were always there for me with your sloppy kisses and thumping tail. Your comical "sniggle" you'd do with your goofy grin and bug eyes, how you'd bark with joy when we went "riding", how you'd wait until I looked at you in the rear view mirror and then you'd do it all over again. Hannah Dan, you were the best girl ever, you were Mama's "Pretty Girl". You brought me so much comfort and joy and I'm so lost without you. I'm praying for the day we will meet again on the Rainbow Bridge. Be happy, my baby dog, God blessed me with a treasure when He brought you to me. I love you Hannah, Mama

I love so much...i miss you so much..please believe me that you will never be forgotten

Georgette

You are so missed, pretty girl.

Julie Ritter

She was our best friend. She will be missed each and every day. She was 10 1/2. I can't imagine life without her but she no longer suffers. Thanks for this wonderful website.

Todd and Karen Luce

Hannah was the most loving dog ever. She was gentle, smart and will be missed by so many, especially her brother Dexter. I never knew how much I could love a dog until she came along!
We love you Hannah!!!

Mommy and Daddy

Everyone says Hannah was an exceptional dog.
She was a Registered Therapy Dog and taught many children how to be kind to dogs and brought many happy memories to those living in a care center.
Hannah loved riding in my golf cart with me, she loved walks and always knew I had treats in my pocket for her.
She was always happy remained puppy playful till her death.
I miss her terribly.

Cathy Parrish

Little Hani with the mismatched eyes, my sister and I bought you for our Mum to keep her company when Dad passed away and what a great companion and friend you were to her.
You will be greatly missed by us all, especially your Mumsy, but we are all glad that you are free from pain and spending time with Dad, Uncle Tommy, Jay and now Buster came to join you last week.
The house may be empty but our hearts are full with memories.
Love Mumsy, Den, Michelle and Charles
xx

Hans left us way too early. He was a special boy and was loved dearly by his Mom. His Mom misses him so and her heart is broken. I hope this candle and tribute will help her through the grieving process. We all loved Hans through his Mom. Hans will be at the bridge waiting for his Mom.

Pam Shannon

Hans,you were such a good little boy and i relish the time i got to spend with you and at the end when we went on that last ride with your brother Riley, you had such a look in your eyes, of thanks and gratitude. I know the cancer was tough and we tried and u got some more time and that i am thankful, the last year i have missed
you and so has Riley, but am thankful for the time you spent in my life and now you and your brother Petey will be at the brigde waiting for us and that i am so looking forward too, but untill then you keep everyone in check and i am sure grandma Maggie is with you too. You were such a good little guy.
Love Daddy and Riley.

Today I lay you down to rest
because you told me so.
With heavy heart & tear-filled eyes
I had to let you go.
You were my very special friend,
The kind God sends on loan.
For I knew upon a special day
He'd come to take you home.
As I held you close to my heart
and kissed you one last time,
I whispered softly when you left
Good-bye.... My Valentine....

Dona & Ted Nawrocki

Hansi was our beloved pet and companion for 5 years.
He made us laugh and helped open our hearts to helping others through pet therapy and taking in foster dogs.
He was a loving dog who knew how to live in the moment and to make the most out of every day.
Hansi added so much to our lives and will be sorely missed.

My sweet, precious Happ, I have not forgotten you, nor will I EVER do so. I miss you to this day. I believe we will see each other again...and I will hold you again...You are so beautiful (not "were", because I can still see you in my mind)!! My tears will never stop until I can really see you again; that is a fact of my life without YOU. I LOVE YOU, HAPP. You were, and ARE, and always WILL be, my sweet Happ.-from your Mommy

I love you little girl and we all miss you especially your mate Robby.

Melinda Cooper

Happy, my Happy - that's how I always called you, singsong style - that is after I got used to your name. I didn't like it at first, even tried to change it, but Happy stuck and I grew to love it. I miss you so much even though our time together was short. You were a rescue and I wasn't even going to keep you at first, but your sweet demeanor captured my heart. I didn't even realize how much until you were gone, and then I felt painfully alone. The emptiness was so agonizing I wondered if I would even make it. Who would have thought that a little creature would have had such an impact on my life? It used to be all about me, but then you came along and I cared for your every need as though it were my own.

Then after 9 months I found out you were very sick, and I was devastated. Though they basically told me there was no hope, I hospitalized you anyway in hopes that you would get better - but then I felt I had no choice but to let you go. I can't think of anything that's been more painful, and I'll never forget how you looked at me in the end. I just hope you knew that it was for your good. Sleep well my little bunny, no more pain. I hope you have "happy" memories of me as I have of you. Night night my Happy, go on to Happy heaven, and I'll see you again someday.

Cheryl Drew

I LOVE chickens and I show chickens at my 4H Fair.
My chicken named Happy was my most special bird. Her mom neglected her, as an egg, and she was actually hatched in my bedroom in May this year and we went everywhere together.
She thought I was her mom and she would follow me everywhere, even to the bathroom or to the shower.
We would sit and watch TV together and she would nuzzle in my hair on my shoulder.
I would paint her toenails and we just loved each other.
Last night she looked real weak and couldn't stand and today she died, unknowingly why.
I miss her so bad!

Ashley

MY Dear Son HAPPY

Mommy loves you and bless you FOREVER. Thank you for staying with me for 11 yrs and 3 more months.

Mommy

Cleo and I miss you so much.
You were a wonderful friend;
you brought me so much joy.
I remember the first time I saw you.
You had been dumped out in the country and gave birth to six puppies the next day.
We found homes for all your puppies.
I took you home and tried to find you a home, but you growled at everyone who came to look at you!
I guess you knew who you wanted to stay with.
You were so sad when your dog brother Jake died, but now you are together again, with Tracy, Horus, Toby too.
A new extented family for you. You had a sixth sense, could always read my mind.
I love you so much.
Mommy

I did not choose Happy. Happy chose me. He was my best friend on a plane no human could ever reach. He understood me like no human ever has. He knew when I was sad and he comforted me in his own way. He was my furry baby, my companion, my natural high, my anti-depressant. He was everything that is sweet about the world. He should not have left me. I am empty and lonely now. Tears are not enough. I do not understand why there is so much pain in this world. He did not derserve this. I will never forget my Happy Cat, my Raccoon Cat, my Fat Kitty. His memory burns my eyes every day.

Cassy Ryan

Happy we all miss you so much!!! I will always love you. I still can't make popcorn yet since your not here to share it. I'm sorry you were alone when you left this world. Please know John and I loved you so much and will miss you forever.
Love, Jen, John and all the dogs

Dear Happy....goodbye my friend.
You made me laugh, you comforted me when I was sad, and now I cry for you, but, you will always be remembered as the special little being you were.
I'll miss your cuddles at night and your warm greetings and loving "purrs".
Those we love may be gone, but never forgotten.
We will meet again.

Mindy Masch

Happy was my forever dog and touched all who came in contact with her in a special way.
She lost her battle with cancer, and I lost a piece of my heart. Happy taught me many lessons in life,and when she died she taught me how to remember, how truly blessed and enriched I am to have been touched by her love. Happy, I sent you on a journey to a land free from pain, not because I didn't love you, but because I loved you to much to force you to stay here with me.. One day we shall rejoin physically again....Happy I love and miss you so much....

Sam

Our Happy papillon was in a word "Happy".
He loved to chase lights, bark, and he had a talent that I have never seen any other dog do.
When he would stand up on his hind legs, he would always bring his front 2 paws together.
He looked like he was always clapping.
Rememeber the song "If your Happy and you know it clap your hands". That was our Happy.
He leaves behind his three other playmate papillons, Morgan, Madonna, & Harley.
We were truly blessed to have him in our lives and he will be dearly missed.
Tim & Becky Simon

Cookies, car rides & all the stuffed animals you could ever want. We love and miss you our sweet “happy” waggy tail boy- our time with you was much too short.

Leslie and Steve Greenfield

We miss you so much. Life is not the same without you here. You brought so much joy and fun into our lives. You are so very loved...forever.

Melanie, Alex , Max and Johan

you were divine, an angel from heaven, nobiity, grace, charm ,great beauty, gentle of heart, my best friend and loving companion

Sonja D. Williams

Over the years, I have been honored to be the recipient of thousands of tail wags from Happy-roo. He has been a true friend and I love him for all the happiness and joy he has brouhgt to me and my family. He will be sorely missed but never forgotten.
After a couple weeks in Heaven, I can see him as CEO of Squeaky Toys, Inc. with Corporate offices next door to Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Harlem was the most loyal dog and loved his human Ed more than anything. He lived long past any predictions, was so loved and is so missed today!

Ed Spencer and Krista Peterson

Harley was a wonderful dog with a great personality. He will be truly missed by everyone his heart touched. His memories with be cherished forever. We must count ourselves the lucky ones we were with him in his prime. You are in a good place now my best friend. Rest in peace good buddy. I love you.

Jim Wilson

Harley was so young to die, but he went into CHF, they tried very hard to save him, but I couldn't stand to see him suffer, just trying to get air. I kissed him and told him I loved him more then anything in the world and to please wait for me at Rainbow Bridge and that Magic was probably there waiting for him and to be nice to him. When I die him and my other cat Magic will be buried with me, I wouldn't have it any other way. They were part of my life.

Cathy & Larry Putgenteer

Harley, I love you and miss you. Coming into the house and not seeing you there is the hardest part of my day. Thank you for being such a good friend. I hope you are with your sister watching down on us. You will always be my "sweetie peetie" Love---your mommy2

Harley,

I miss you so very much. Please forgive me
for having to put you down, but you were fighting
so hard for every breath you took.

You will never be forgotten, you have left
your paw prints on my heart.

Till we meet again at RainBow Bridge, always
remember I LOVE YOU
Love Mommy & Daddy

Harley you came into our lives in 1994.We adopted you to be a mate for Miss Tigee.Well she wanted to be bye herself,so we adopted Miss CC and you and her were in seperatable. You gave me & mom so much love.We use to love to take you to the park to see the ducks. You like to get up on the back window look out at them.When CC got sick you stood by her side all the timeand stay by her side till she went to the rainbow to be with Miss Tigee.I'll alway remember when I sat in my chair you would jump up on the back and lay by my head and lick it.After we moved you became mom's baby and never left her side.When we got your brothers and sisters you stay with mommy till you all went to sleep and you all were on the bed together.When Stephen and Ashely came to live with us youput up with them.When you got sick it was hard to watch you suffer any more.Mom and I knew it was time to let you go to your sisters.The night before you left us you even kiss Miss Luckey, and mom and I knew you were ready to leave us.It was very hard to let you go. But we knew it was time for you to stop suffering.We held you till it was time to go to the girls. You will always be in our hearts and mind forever.Your now back to your old self, runny and playing with the girls again never to suffer any more.WE love and miss more than words can ever say.Chow baby till we meet again.

Karin Sanchez

~Hi sweetheart, it's mommy & daddy.
It has been almost 4 weeks since you left us for The Bridge and not a day has passed where I have not cried and cried....We miss you so much...I still don't understand WHY oh WHY you were taken from us. Your life was cut way too short.
Darn it, your surgery was suppose to prolong your life, not take it.
Maybe, we should not have done the surgery, but we had it done with hopes that you would feel better. Did mommy make a mistake?
I am so sorry, baby girl.
Yesterday was Mother's Day and it was really tough day for me.
I want you back............We love you and miss you -

Puggie hugs and kisses -
Mommy, daddy, Viper, Bliz & Hayden

To the best dog we ever had...you will be missed so much.

We hope you are running through fields of green and we look forward to seeing you again at the "Rainbow Bridge"...

Lovingly,
Mommy & Daddy

Harley was the most amazing, loving, loyal friend a person could ask for.
When you were sad, she was by your side.
She loved life and loved playing.
She was a master at hide & seek, loved playing with her teddy bears, and never turned down a good game of chase.
Harley's legs could no longer hold her body, so we gave her peace and comfort.
Our hearts and our home are empty without her, and we hold on to the day we will see her again.
I miss her soft fur and wet kisses, I miss her snoring at the foot of my bed.
I miss her.
We love you Harley.

Mommy, Daddy, Loren, & Buster

Harley was sent to me by God at a time in my life when I needed someone.
I was young and alone and had moved far from home.
I knew no one, and Harley was my best friend.
We spent weekends hiking together in the forest.
She slept with me in my bed.
Many years passed, and I got married.
I had two babies.
Harley survived cancer.
Sixteen years later, Harley was still my best friend.
The arthritis in her spine was getting bad.
The medications she took we were no longer doing the job.
Last night I came home to find she couldn't lift her head, or stand.
She cried all night.
I had a talk with her and told her I gave her permission to go be at rest - that she no longer needed to take care of us.
This morning as we put her to sleep, she laid peacefully and kept eye contact with me until she was gone.
Thank you , Harley, for your faithfulness, your gentle spirit, and you love.

Tricia Davis

Harley, I will never understand why you, so full of life, energy, personality and love had to get so sick. I tried so hard to help you get well.I only had you 5 years. I loved you the minute I held you in my arms when you were 8 weeks old. I miss you sleeping next to me, I miss your kisses, I miss you coming to lick my feet after you got a drink, I miss you greeting me at the door so happy to see me, I miss holding you, your adorable face, I even miss you barking when a doorbell would ring on the tv. You were so Special to me, I will never get another as there could never be another you. I stare at your picture wishing this nightmare would end. I love you Harley with all my heart, Mommy

Harley, my "lovey boy"

I'm going to miss you snuggling up in my arms when I'm laying on the couch watching tv, or cuddling up with me when I'm trying to do work on the computer (or plopping yourself down in front of the monitor-lol).
You were my companion, who followed me all over the apartment.
Your "hugs" were the best - Miss you pumpkin!!

Kathy Barros

I love you lil buddy, you are a angel from God. Your bright eyes will always shine in my memories. I would've taken you for a walk today. You would've stopped every 2 feet to take a piddle, and i would wait ever so patiently. By the time we get home you'd be huffin and puffin, running straight to the water bowl (or pool). But you never let a day pass by without thanking us, your family, for everthing. You never complained when i told you about my day, you always were ready to play and listen when appropiate. Harley you are the best dog in the world. No pet can ever replace you homie. God's going to take good care of you up there in that white mansion. He'll give you the best filet mignon for breakfast, lunch, and dinner; no gravy pouches or any of that gross stuff. You're probably already having fun up there. I think he's taking you for a walk now. With Jesus and Gabriel. Gabe's my homie, tell him i said thanks. While your up there behind those pearly gates, waggling your swirly tail and running those stubby ol' legs in that soft grass, i hope you still think of me. And every one else, Nicholas, Mom, Dad, Steph, we all miss you terribly. This is Melanie, by the way. There's no leashes and harnesess where you are Harley. You're free as a bird, nothing and no one can ever harm you in heaven. Once i get up there we have to catch up. Let's take a walk again, like we used to, around the block. Introduce me to some of your new doggy pals. We'll meet again Meats, don't worry. I love you Boosheela.

Maria, Matthew, Melanie, Nicholas, Stephany

ODE TO HARLEY

There comes a time in each man’s life, when decisions must be made.
We weren’t prepared for what came next, of that I’m here to say.
Your time here was so precious, it seems you just arrived; the whirlwind that was your life seems somehow cast aside.
You brought us welcome laughter, and a testy time or two, but that was just your nature, so what’s a dog to do?
Now dear friend I tell you, with a lump inside my throat, that you’ll never be forgotten as I read the words I wrote.
You gave us joy abundant and never asked a thing, except a morsel or a pat you really were a King.

I miss you and the games we’d play when I’d come home at night, you earned your place amongst the ranks, you reached the highest heights.
Things are really different now, since you’re not by my side, to wake me up or trip upon when I turn out the lights.
Rest now my companion, on your way up to the stars, you’re in the ranks of Angels to play in God’s great park.
I’ll watch the sky at evening to see you streaking by, to know you’re chasing comets now, will be my great delight.
Other’s came before you, and you left us now behind, but we’ll be with you once again soon on the other side.
Your pain has now since ended, so hold your head up high, you reached the peak, you crossed the line, you’re diamonds in the sky.

Dave McKillop

Thank you for 17 1/2 years of total love and devotion,for teaching Hannah to become a part of our family, and for being the best dog ever! Love Momma, Daddy, and your sister Hannah

MY DEAR BELOVED HARLEY BOY WAS THE BEST CAT THAT I HAVE EVER HAD. OH HOW VERY MUCH I MISS HIM.
HE WAS SO FUNNY AND LOVED TO PLAY WITH HIS LITTLE PURPLE TURTLE. HE WOULD TOSS IT IN THE AIR SO HIGH.
HE WOULD SLEEP IN BED WITH US AND TUG ON THE BLANKET AND NOW I CAN HARDLY GO TO BED BECAUSE HE IS NOT THERE.
I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HE HAD TO BE TAKEN AWAY FROM US.
HE HAD AN ORAL TUMOR AND WE TRIED SO HARD TO SAVE HIM.
WHEN WE LOST HIM, I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE.
HE WAS SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST A CAT.
HE WAS A BIG BALL OF ORANGE FLUFFY FUR.
HE LOVED LAYING ON THE BACK PORCH AND HE WOULD SPEND HIS DAYS WATCHING THE BIRDS AND LAYING IN THE SUN.
HE WOULD HAVE SLEPT OUT THERE IF WE WOULD HAVE LEFT HIM.
LIFE IS SO EMPTY WITHOUT HIM.
I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
HE WAS SO PERFECT.
I KNOW HIS BROTHERS AND SISTER MISS HIM AS WELL.
IT HAS BEEN A DIFFICULT TIME FOR US AS IN THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, WE HAVE LOST A DOG AND TWO CATS.
THEY WERE ALL SO SPECIAL IN THEIR OWN WAYS, BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING EXTRA SPECIAL ABOUT HARLEY.
I MISS HIM AND LOVE HIM DEARLY.

Shelley Bard

Harley was abandoned as a little pup, when I took him into my home.
He became my steadfast companion, protector, source of love and laughter.
He was always happy to see me, and happier when I gave him a bone!
He was gravely ill when I took him into the vet, and I held him as he was released from his magnificent body.
We spent 7 years together, and nothing could have prepared me for the depth of loss I feel at his passing.
He enriched my life in every way, and I miss him so very much.

Kat Pell

you were turely my best friend i still love you and always will.never forget me ok bud

love you truest friend jaz

Jasmyn Kyle

Go play with Augie like you used to. We will meet again someday. I will be looking for you. Bye my litle baby boy.

Joseph Jasionowski

Harley brought happiness into our lives.
She was only a puppy, and we only had her a short time, but the loss is heavy.

Marilyn Sintes

Harley I love you so much and miss you terribly. Know that you were so very special to me.

Wendy Doebler

Harley,

We miss you so much, I never knew how much I loved you until you were gone. Momma struggles each and every minute of the day. You and I both know that it was not her fault. Over time she will realize that, but the pain in both our hearts still remains. We just want you to know that you will never be forgotten or replaced. I know that Momma thinks that you and I were not really close, but only if she knew just how much I loved you and still do. God bless you fat boy.

Love Always,
Rose & Darrel

I ONLY WANTED YOU

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

To the best friend a family could have, and the one who tried so hard to hang on and fight her sickness to be with us! We Love and miss you so much Harley!!!!!!!! You will forever be in our hearts!!!

Veronica & Caity

Rest In Peace Baby Girl - We Miss You So Much!
We Love You!

Denise Cenizal

Harley was diagnosed with canine Lymphoma. A Biopsy was done to confirm.
It was so far advanced. Everything happened so quickly with this aggressive cancer.
We could not stand to see her suffer, so we had to make the decision to end her suffering.
That was one of the hardest days of our lives.
At least we know she is at peace and we will always love and miss her! We love and miss you Harley!

mom and dad

Hi baby girl ~ It has been 2 weeks since you were taken to Rainbow Bridge. We miss you so much, sweatheart...Viper, Bliz and Hayden are lonely without you.
Sweetie, mommy and daddy are so sorry.
Your surgery was suppose to make you better, but instead we lost you....Please forgive us...We love you! Har ~ Pugs was taken to Rainbow Bridge to be with you on 4/20. He was lonely for you - I am hoping you have met up with him as well as Mitchie and Princess...

Kathleen & Dan

YOUR LEAVING US WAS SO UNEXPECTED.

You are missed by Tom & Renee Benz (owners), the "puppies" and I.

You can run play with Pongo every day.

We all loved you dearly.

Deborah English - Pet Sitter

Our beautiful Harley Boy.
You gave us so much love and took such good care of us.
Run and play, dig big holes and carry a big stick.
We hope you can do and have all the things that we were unable to give you.
You deserve the best in the afterlife.

Until we meet again sweet Prince ...

I had got Harley when he was a kitten in high school back in 1992. He was the cutest tuxedo cat in the litter. I came up with the name of Harley Davidson because he purred as loud as one. He turned into a fat cat the had these unique fat little paws that you wouldn't usually see on a cat. Harley's favorite past time was licking water out of the bathtub when the faucet would leak and he would get a wet head. He even would sleep in the tub. I had a wonderful 15 years with him and I can't wait to see him again.

Sunny Finlan

Harley, What does a family say when that really one special soul passes on. There is not enough space to type in all the wonderfull things you meant to us so we are simply saying We will always love and miss you. You will always remain in our hearts as a very special little man. God speed my little man !!!

Mom, Daddy, Sadie, Ghost Demi Storm and Gemini Levine

He was a very special pet. We will never forget him.

Jason & Ellen Drucker

YOU WIIL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEART AND MEMORIES..WE LOVED YOU VERY MUCH AND IM GLAD WE GOT TO SPEND AS MANY YEARS WITH AS WE DID...WATCH OVER US..WE LOVE YOU..

Wendy

Dogspeed, my baby-boy, my heart-dog. You wagged your tail for everyone you met and always assumed they were just as excited about you as you were about them. You gave me love beyond words your whole life and I am forever grateful to have been your dogmother. You have left an enormous legacy and as long as my heart is beating, you will live on.

Susan T. Lennon

My beautiful Harley boy. He was a true blessing. We miss him with every breath we take. He could of taught us humans a thing or two. Our boy was a true gift from above. He had a heart bigger than most humans I know. He taught us so much without speaking a word. We never felt lonely or sad with those big brown eyes. I miss your smell and warmth. I miss your unconditional love and loyalty. We wish you rainbows and sunshine baby. WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY!!!

Jessyca & Tom Miracle

Harley you will be sorely missed.
From the day we brought you home you were our first baby - from clean ups to sleeping in our bed at our feet.
How quickly you became a true part of our family. Not just to us, but to everyone that met you.
You even converted Nana into a dog lover.
You were truly an institution in our home.

You were so good with the kids and everyone else's kids too.
We'll never forget Carter hugging you in the mornings, perhaps you're why he's our "morning boy".
We'll never forget how you insisted on sleeping in Katelyn's room - what a protector you were.
We'll always remember the summers by the pool with you jumping right in and those honest, respectful eyes that could look right through you.

Our hearts sank when you became ill and we did all we could to keep you around as long as we could and with as little pain as we could.
I can't imagine how lonely your sister Eddie will be without you, but I know you've taught her well.

Now that you're gone, all any of us really has to do is close our eyes and think of you and there you are.
You will forever be in our hearts.
Good bye old friend, say hello to your sister's namesake when you cross the Rainbow Bridge.

Love always, your family,
Chad, Stacy, Katelyn, Carter and Eddie.

Thank you, Harley, for making the last 16 years of our life worth living. You constantly made us smile, and laugh, and often just shake our heads in disbelief. There are no words to express the love we feel, and now the excruciating pain. We know it was hard for you, the last couple years, and we know it was your time to go. However, that doesn't help to ease our suffering. We know you are no longer in pain, you can see again, and you are happy. We will love and miss you forever. You will always be in our hearts, and in our dreams. You are my best friend, and always will be. One day, we will meet again...my precious angel.
Your family,
Jody, Skylar, Mom, and Dad

You brought us many hours of joy Harley. Always there when we returned home, with stubby tail wagging and a gleam in your eyes. We will surely miss you

We adopted Harper two years ago from Kanine Kids.
Even though he had arthiritis, developed dementia due to his age, and began having seizures, he was the most loving little old, or as I liked to call him my "wiwle ole" gentleman.
He loved everyone he met, especially small children.
All he ever wanted was to be held and loved.
He slept all night every night for the two years in my mom's lap.
He was in our life for only two short years, but he will be in our hearts forever.

Harper, we love you and will meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Run, play, and do all of the things your little body would not allow you to do anymore.

Love,
Lisa and Muir

Always knew when to give lots of love and kisses. Terribly missed.

Leanne

We love you and miss you.
You will always be in our hearts. We will miss your "Beardie Bounce". Go now you are free from your illness to romp and herd anything you feel like. Go in peace, we will see you

again one day fully restored to health.
This is my prayer for you our beloved "Beardie".

Love your family

Harry, my girl - a name give to you by an alcoholic who took you from your litter mates one night and brought you back the next not understanding why you howled and cried (you were 4 weeks old and somehow she managed to break your tail).
Thank God she brought you back to us and never again were you to be taken away, or hurt.
You were our girl and Bogarts' girl.
You and your mother would just talk, talk, talk - so sweet and so independent.
You are with your mother and brothers and Lil Bro and Blackie Boy.
You are all running and playing and happy and healthy and your Pa is beaming with pride and I cannot wait to see all of you again.
I will wait my turn but believe me, I really am looking forward to that day of our all being joined together.
I love you and miss you so much.

Linda Bell

To My Best Friend,
Our lives are empty today without you.
I miss you horribly. You were my best buddy through thick and thin.
I was blessed to have you in my life.
I will never forget you.

Susan

Taken so suddenly by a car he gave us so much joy and we renamed him to "Happy" in his last months because he was just soooo happy! I miss him and wish I could tell him just how much I love him.

Christine, Jaykob, Daniel and Friends Xox

Harry, you were the best dog. I miss you so much. Thank you,Lord,for giving us this wonderful dog to love.

Dorothy Bruining

DON'T GRIEVE TOO LONG

Don't grieve too long, for now I'm free.
I've followed the path God has set for me.

I ran to Him when I heard His Call.
I swished my tail and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To meow, to love, to romp or play.

Games left unplanned must stay that way.
I found such peace, it made my day.

My parting has left you with a void.
Please fill it with remembered joy,

A friendship shared, your laugh, a kiss.
Oh yes, these things I too shall miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life has been full, you've given so much,
Your time, your love and gentle touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your head and share with me,
God wanted me, He set me free!

Harry "Happy" Potter, with us since he was a kitten and taken so suddenly yesterday.
You are already missed and forever in my heart!!!
I love you Harry!

Christine Hilverts

You, our kind and all-knowing cat, never ceased to amaze us with your intuitive knowledge of who was in need and required your attention the most.
You were never just a pet-always a family member.
You became ill so quickly!!
The decision to help you pass was heart-wrenching, but it was the correct one.
You would never have wanted to continue on in the state you were in.
I believe you knew we were with you until the end.
I pray to the God of our understanding that we will all be reuntied in what, I hope, will seem like the twinkling of an eye.
In the meantime, keep an eye on us and we will be aware of your close-by presence always.

Steve, Cindy & Brendan Hanna

I only had you for 3 1/2 years.Someone mis-treated you so bad that you ended up at a rescue and then put up for adoption.All when well till a terible reaction to a shot,and we fought it for amost a year.Harry died in my arms today on the way to the vet.He was such a little man..I will miss him till the day I pick him up at the bridge.I will see him and he will see me.No more blindness or issues with walking.He will be perfect.Harry,I love you with all my heart and wished I could have found you first instead of your mean owner.But I am glad for the short time I had you.You saved me the agony of having to put you down.I told you that you could go it you wanted as your sickness was taking all you had and you could not fight it off anymore.As I felt your last breath I held you and cried and cried,and wonder how I will go on till I see you again.So now your with my Sparky,Tigger,Penny,and I just miss you guys.Watch for my candle and it's golden light finds it's way to you and know I love and miss you.Someday soon I will be walking towards you and we will cross the bridge together....God's Speed Harry...

Linda

My heart is aching for my baby.
He was my protector and now I don't know what I am going to do without you.
You will always be in my heart.

Caroline

He was the dearest of friends. He helped me heal from several broken hearts, and a broken marriage. He helped ease the stress of an intense job, and always helped me fall asleep, feeling loved unconditionally. He will be missed and will ever be in my heart.

S.L. Griggs

Harry came into our lives 2 years ago, as a rescue looking for a loving home. Little did we know that his presence would change our lives more than we ever thought possible. He was beautiful in every way, sensitive, loyal, gentle, playful, and silly. He had bright blue eyes that you couldn't help but fall in love with. We miss him so much and are struggling with losing such an integral part of our family. We love you, Harry.

Angie Yu and Van Selby

Harry,
we miss you so much and we think of you everyday. It won't be the same around the house with you and until we meet again, we love you with all our might.

The Burke's

To our beloved Harry who has lived a long and happy life.
You are greatly missed!
You are always in our hearts and memories.

TT Ho

My darling Hartley,
You were taken so quickly from us, in just 3 short days. You were so brave, but when I looked into your eyes that last time I knew you were ready to go. You have brought me such love and joy in the years I have known you. We are so heartbroken with out you and our family is no longer complete. You remain in our hearts, my beautiful blue eyed boy.

All our love, Mummy, Daddy, Lilly, Scampi and Mae xxxxxxxxx

Our much loved Harvey died of cancer, and we are all so upset.
He was such a special dog, so lovely, a real treasure. God couldn't wait to have him in heaven.

Mandy Andy Emily and Gavin

Harvey, you were beautiful, loving and as smart as they come.
You came into our lives 13 years ago on Christmas Eve and you truely were a Christmas blessing.
When we took in that abandoned entergetic pup, we had no idea how you'd change our lives.
You brought us so much joy and gave so much love, it's unbelievable you could be gone.
You were mom's shadow, always there.
You were our Harve man and will always be in our hearts.
Thank you for your love, my beautiful brown boy...

Wanda & Lanelle

Momma, Daddy, and Sissy love you and are with you forever Harvdog.

Stacy DeLano

You were the big guy, Hawkeye. You will always be missed and loved.

Bill Fiedor

On December 10, we held a "party" for what would have been Hayley's Sweet 16th Birthday.
We had cupcakes, one with a lit candle for Hayley.
We sang "Happy Birthday" and I sang through the tears.

I had a dream the other night that Hayley was alive.
She was swimming toward me across a small pool of water.

Hayley, from the day you came home with me (and cried all night in your crate) until the day I had to let you go, you were the light of my life.
You were my first family after I moved to Texas and my first "daughter".
I remember how you played "boo sock", how you barked at anyone who walked by our apartment balcony, and your love of peanut butter toast.
I remember how silly you thought you looked in your "fairy princess costume" for Halloween or the yellow raincoat, hat and booties I bought for you.

I miss you and hope you are keeping Grandma and Grandpa Walsdorf company.
Remind them that you like tastes of coffee and to put the peanut butter toast peanut butter side down.
I love you, Boo, forever...

Jennifer

I know I did everything I did to save you ... and still I miss you with all of my heart.

Beth Watson

We miss you, old girl.

Leslie

Hazey,
Our sweet, loveable Hazey.
We don't know what happened.
You were fine the night before you died so suddenly.
We went looking for you when you didn't show up for dinner (very unlike you my little piggy!) and unfortunately, Daddy found you, as if you had just been sleeping in a usual spot, in your cute usual position of leaning on something...but "gone."
We rushed you to the vet, in total shock, confusion, and disbelief, although we knew it was too late.
I looked up sudden death in kitties...and my only comfort is that you probably died instantly, painlessly, in your sleep.
I think, sadly, somehow, losing Blackberry (02/14/07) truly broke your heart and that you went to be with her.
I understand you having to leave, it's okay;
I'm just so sorry I didn't know, or couldn't be there when you went or do something to prevent it, or just tell you one last time how much I love you or goodbye.

We all love you so much, and I know that you knew that you were truly, deeply loved as one of the family.

I didn't think my heart could be filled with any more grief than it was after losing our Blackberry so recently...now I am at a loss to describe the confusion and despair of losing you both in such a short time.
You brought us immense joy, happiness, cuteness and amusement in your short, less than 7 years with us. It seems like so short a time ago we adopted you & your brother from Love-A-Stray...

Meowy is acting confused~ where is his brother?
I let everyone say goodbye to you.
We put you in a box with your favorite blankie that you liked to smush and cuddle in and tunnel into.
I put Blackberry's ashes snuggled into your tummy and next to your heart, so that you may forever be snuggled with her, whom you so loved & always snuggled and slept with in this life.
We buried you both together on the hill next to Fuzz, and Daddy and I said a prayer and hugged and cried together. I miss you so much already and am still in disbelief, never imagining this would happen. Everyone is wondering why you & Blackberry are not here with us like always!?

We will never forget you or stop missing you. Super-Kitty, my little piggy, Hazey-bucket, Hazey-butt, goofball. We will remember Daddy flying you like an airplane, you nibbling his elbow when he'd be laying on the couch, you just flopping on your back so silly, sometimes for no reason, sometimes playing with your favorite mousey toy, sometimes getting brushed, that long, fine, gray and white hair- so soft.
Snuggling & sleeping with Blackberry, rubbing on Chicklet, sleeping with your brother Meowy, the trial of learning to live with your adopted brother Tigger, who was finally able to become your buddy, as well!
Even Boo-Boo loved you, cuz you were so meek and knew not to push her boundaries of "kitty-tolerance!"
Always begging so cutely for more "foodie" with your cute, irresistable mews.

Like Blackberry, although you are suddenly no longer here with us the way you were, you will ALWAYS, FULLY and FOREVER remain in our hearts and memories. I can't thank you enough for the joy you've brought us nor express how much you will be missed.
I'm so sad, but you & Blackberry, along with the others, just be good and wait for us, and we will be there as soon as it is our time! I can't wait to get to Heaven to be with you, again...someday we will all be together again in the most perfect place. Until then, we will miss you deeply, Hazey.
:O(:::
Love Always and Forever,
Mommy & Daddy, Boo-Boo, Chicklet, Meowy & Tigger Rericha

I loved and cared for my infant rat and as much time and love i put into hm, i'm dissapointed he died.

Anessa

A wonderful loving pet was our great companion. Haley fought cancer at age eight to live almost five more years with us. A spinal problem took her from us. I will always remember her. She was my loyal friend and she has taught me alot. I will always love her.

Bryan, Shelly, Caden Cwiklinski

Harry bear...I can only cry.
I miss you so much and think of you all the time.
You were the one who was supposed to be here until I got old.
You were the one who made my days happier.
Your wild spirit just couldn't be held here and your love for all of us, your playfullness, your creation of a reason for us all to get up and go,will forever be missed and longed for.
You were our light and now there is a darkness in our hearts. I will always love you. Belle and Diva will never quite be the same.

Sherrill Brittain

Hatcher -
you were not my dog, I know, but you were my dog -
rarely did I meet such an endearing and
lovable companion - will miss so much going for walks with you, seeing you roll in the grass with happiness, carrying the newspaper proudly up the street, teaching me your walk routine...
If there ever was a dog one loved instantly, it certainly was you!

Ute Mader

Hazel, a tortie with huge green eyes and long whiskers, has a sad story.
Two months before she died, I tried to teach her to go outside because she would not use the litter box.
She disappeared. Two months later, I heard her crying outside.
There she was, very thin, sick, covered in fleas.
I took her inside, tried to get her to eat and drink, but she wouldn't.
Two days later, she went into convulsions, and died while I was holding her, before I could get her to the vet.

Seems she got herself home to die

Maria Swora

She really was my baby. She went where ever I went and when I would get home she would be there waiting for me. I cant wait for the day I get to see her again.

Pat

My little girl!

Michael Throgmartin

find the softest pillow lord to rest her head upon ,and place a kiss upon her cheek and tell her who its from.love you forever.sweet dreams

Ann Campbell

Head was a faithful companion, a protector, a confidant, playmate, and good friend, whose time was cut too short on this earth.
But I know that he is in a better place now and he left behind two sons Head Jr, and Pepper who will be as loved and cared for as their father.

Willie Davis

Namaste my Dear Healy, Sending you happiness and love to lift your soul. We'll be together again, BFF's. Om Shanti, Love, Mommy

My Dear Little Heather,
Since we have to be apart,
Nothing seems to fill this emptiness you left in my heart.
I will never forget that day,
When the look on your face seemed to say,
"Mom take me home, where I want to be,
But if you can't, please set me free".
So now that I have had to let you go,
There is something I want you to know.
I would give anything to have you here with me,
But since that just wasn't meant to be,
If I should get another "Special Friend",
It doesn't mean my missing you will end!
It may seem as if you're up there
at Rainbow Bridge forever,
But you wait for me and someday
we'll cross over that bridge together.

Cathy

My beautiful Punkydunk - I miss you more every day.
We all do.
I hope you are running free and eating lots of cookies.
No more growling.
Just playing with all of your new friends.

I know you wanted to be a good girl.
You are my angel.

I am so sorry my Heather.
I love you.

Mom

Heather was given to us by some people who had been directed to find a new home for her due to abuse so we have no idea how old she was.

When she first joined our family (plus Piggy & later her son Ox) she would cower when you looked at her and so forth...eventually she became Heather Sweater as she would practialy crawl into you when she would sit beside you...like she would become a part of you. She was such a good girl and we did teach her that not all people where bad.

We had about 10 wonderful years with her until she had become ill and never bounced back quite as well and finally choose to run to the bridge while we where not home one day. She was quietly laying at the bottom of the steps where she often could be found snoozing away the day.

Wendy, Ed, Charlotte & Jeremiah

She was a rescue with a history of abuse.
It took a year for her personality to unfold, then I became aware of how rewarding, intelligent, and complex Akitas are.
I loved her totally, just as she loved me.
Run free at the Bridge, my dear Sake' girl, romp with my friends' Akitas that have passed, and have fun while you wait for us there.

Lael R. Neill

To my handsome boy, my prince, I miss you so.
Wait for me......

Melissa Morehead

On 12 23 06, these two babies died in a mva involving my husband and I.

Belinda Phares

Mt Heidi was a wonderful little thing. She helped me thru the suicide death of my son. Heidi was very strong and always wanted to play with a toy or she absolutely loved the ocean. She was such a great wonderful dog. I am so going to miss her.

Sandi Cox

Heidi was a wonderful dog. She was very loyal and loving. Unfortunately we had to put her down due to cancer. She had also went blind and deaf. She was a joy every day of her life, from the first moment we saw her. We miss her every day and look forward to one day meeting her at rainbow bridge. We are still going through the grieving process as well as Heidi's full time companion a beagle named Lady. We loved her so much, she was like our child and our house is so empty without her. We Love you Heidi, always and forever

Tammy

We had our beautiful Shepherd for almost 13
years.
Heidi was never far from us as she
went camping with us and slept at the foot of the bed.
We miss her a lot....

My rescued from the dumpster puppy grew up to be the smartest, funniest and most loving dog. Yesterday I could see it in her eyes. She was confused about why she felt so bad and needed me to give her permission to go. The cancer was too much for the dog that never gave up.

Donna Taylor

To our gorgeous puppy,

we love you forever!

Love your family.

Heidi,
So sweet & loving, the best little girl anyone could ever want. You left a huge hole in our hearts when you when you left us. We miss you more than words can express, our little Kins.
Run and play,chase those squirrles to your heart's content,your back problems won't bother you now.
Until we meet again at The Rainbow Bridge.
Love always.

Kevin & Sharon

I miss my girl.
She was my best friend.

Jennifer Christakis

I will miss you so.
My heart is broken, I dont know what to do. I love you so. I am sorry I had to help you cross over, but you were so sick.

Heidi My Girlie
I miss you and you will always be in my heart.
When you see your Dad, Major, tell him we miss and Love him too.

Laura

Henry Smalligan found a small gray Persion on the lower level of my parents property above Tecolote Canyon in San Diego in the late spring of 1994. After a day or two, the cat walked over to him. When he petted her, he could feel her ribs. He began feeding her and she felt confident in walking up onto the level where their house is. The kitty could see my mother, Ruth's cat Mindy looking out the living room window. My mother decided to name the cat Heidi because she was an orphan and the streets in that area of San Diego begin with the word "Mount!" Our veterinarian examined Heidi and told us she was at least two or three years old. Heidi's healthy weight was about five pounds! She was little, but she was tough,and could hold her own. She loved to play with Mindy, and my cats Lucy and Ricky. My mother passed away in 2004, and Lucy was at the Rainbow Bridge to greet her. Mindy joined them in 2005, so Heidi had a large greeting party this evening. My dad, who turns 90 in June, understands that Heidi will not suffer from the tumor Dr. Michael found under her tongue this afternoon. Heidi, you were always so sweet and loving to everyone. You have been a delightful and beloved member of our family for the past 13 years. Your Poppy, Dianne, Ricky and my dad's caregivers, Mona, Tupu and Mary will always love you. We will join you someday! Thank you for being part of our family!

Dianne Smalligan For My Father, Henry Smalligan

Today my beautiful "buggie" passed on.
She was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive bone cancer one week ago and when we woke up this morning, it was obvious her time was extremely short.
Instead of being selfish and keeping her with me as long as possible, I decided to end her misery.
It is the most difficult thing that I have ever had to do.
But I know that my wonderful girl, family member and beloved friend of 8 1/2 years is in a much better place now and will one day be with me again.
Mommy and Manson will also love and remember you and our short time together.

Heidi was the best dog and friend anyone could ever ask for.

She was my watchdog - forever protecting my family and I by barking everytime someone's car door would shut or if someone knocked at the door.

One time she even saved my life by barking to awake my mother when a fire started by a wall candle dripping while I was asleep upstairs.

Even on her last final day of life, when she was sicker and in more pain than ever, she managed to bark when someone came to my door - still trying to show an "intruder" that she could protect us.

It was so sad to see her go, but we knew that it had to be done.

She could no longer live with dignity for she had to be picked up in order to go outside to the bathroom.

And she just laid on the floor with her eyes staring at the ceiling, a blank stare, she had no more life to her. And that was not the Heidi we all knew.

So now she is in Heaven with Smeegle, our other companion that died a few weeks before her of kidney failure due to poisoned cat food :( the loss I have for both of them is just overwhelming and I don't know that I'll ever be happy again. however, I am happy that they are not in pain anymore and are in Heaven enjoying eachother's time and company. I only hope that someday I will join them again.

I love you so much Heidi! You are my whole world and you're the best sister I've ever had! I will always remember you! My best friend *always*

You were so brave at the vet & everyone misses and loves you very much!

I hope you like the cake that we're having for you tonight!

Love always,

Lisa

Heidi was my mom's companion for the first 11 years of her life.
My mom passed away June '04 and til Heidi went to heaven to be with her - she missed her every day.
I miss her very much too.
She was my life!!

Kathy Purdes

Although Heidi was little,just 9lbs or so when when she passed, she had a heart that could not be measured. Heidi was so sweet and loving all her life. Even toward the end when Heidi was confused and hurting,she always acknowledged when we held and gave her affection. Heidi loved us and we loved her without reservation. Joyce and I always said that Heidi needed a retired couple, and for the past 3 years I have been retired. Heidi received all the love and attention she desired.
Joyce and I were there in Heidi's life when she needed us the most, and Heidi was in our life when we needed her the most. There is a large hole in our hearts and a void in our lives due to her passing, but time will heal. Joyce and I thank God that he gave Heidi to us and we know she is in a better place. Joyce and I will never lose the memories and will never forget that there was once a little Schnauzer named Heidi.

Mike and Joyce Brown

Heidi was a great dog which I got at the Animal Shelter when I was 5 yrs. old.
He was so small when we got him, he couldn't even go up and down stairs.
He lived for 16 yrs. with me...I had him from the age of 5 yrs old to 22 yrs old.
He was my dog and I loved him so much.
Even though he will be gone for 8 yrs this October, I still miss him and love him.
I look at his pictures and watch videos with him on it all the time.
I still think about him everyday.
Miss you Heidi...Love you.
You are now with Grandpa up in Heaven.
"Mommy loves you"

Shannon

Heidi, you were a sweetie pie that use to love to lick my hand. You died young, but not before you grabbed a place in my heart. We love you baby!!! My thoughts will be with you always :)

Sadly Heidi was dropped by a toddler, and she broke a disk in her vertebre. She became paralyzed, and would eventally wear herself down to the bone. We all desided it was best to have her put to sleep, because even though she couldn't feel it-we could. :(

Lauren and Mallory

I would like to remember my first dog a Boston Terrier named Heidi Lynn. She was my best friend in the whole entire world. I will never forget the 10 + years we shared as long as I life. I love you Heidi, never forget it.

Jessica Caldwell

Our Heidi,

Our protector, the love of our lives, and the best sister to gretchen.
Thanks for all the years of love, everday, ever minute.
We miss seeing your face at the window, in our bed on the couch and running free on your road.

Norman and Denise Hopely

To a great hunter and friend you will be missed. You gave so much love and work in the field those great times will never be replaced. You are in a better place now with no more pain and suffering. Know that I will be thinking of you every time I hunt or travel the woods. Take care my dear friend until we meet again.

Mark Rodgers

my heineken your daddy loves and misses you. you are with your mommy in a better place. i will see you both again.

Daddys Boy

Heineken was a loving dog. He was my first dog and taught me much. He was neglected severley in the first 12 years of his life. He came to us when he was 12 and spent the next 4 years with us. We loved him dearly and he paid us back with his love and loyalty. He loved to chase squirrels and would run around and around the tree in the front yard until we stopped him. He will always have as special place in our hearts and we will always love him.

Lynn Kegley

dear heineken your daddy loves and misses you and looks foward to see you at the rainbow bridge one day

Bob Lynn Westbrook

To my best friend... I will find you again.

Katherin

Heizer was more than my best friend. He was my spirit and the source of never ending joy and love in my life.
I've had many pets in my life and loved them all, but never has another living thing, except my wife, given me such happiness and love.
He will never be replaced or duplicated in any way.
The void left by his sudden loss is greater then the largest black hole in all of outer space.
His love and personality gave me more warmth than if I touched the sun.
Heizer, I love you with all my heart and I pray that someday we will be together again as we cross Rainbow Bridge.
I hope that I gave you as much love and happiness as you gave me.
I don't know what I did to deserve you, but I will forever be grateful for the time we had together.
Those all too short 8 years will always be among the best in my life.
I love you and miss you so much, I hope you're safe and happy and know that you will always be a part of me.
I'm hurting so much right now, you will always be my very best friend and I hope that somehow you can let me know you're OK.
I love you Heiz and I look forward to the day we can be together again.
Goodbye for now buddy.
Thank-you for that day you picked me when I sat down with you and your brothers and sisters. You will forever be one of the biggest and best parts of my life.
I love you with all my heart, forever and ever and so does Momma.
Goodbye for now Heiz,
Daddy

Helga was the best dog we ever had. She was a part of the family. Old age and cancer got the best of her after 12 great years with us. We had to put her down because it was the right thing to do. It was one of the hardest decisions we ever made. After losing our beloved cat Smither just eight months ealier, this was devastating. Helga was like a mother to that cat. I had never seen such a tight relationship between a big dog and a little cat. A cat with her own guard dog. They are together again playing at the bridge. Helga protected my family. I am forever grateful to you for that. She was not vicious, just protective. She never bit anyone. It was an honor being your friend. Thank you Helga. You will always be in our hearts.

Joey Godwin

My sweet girl, my best friend, my Hello, was put to sleep afer being diagnosed with a heart murmur, enlarged heart, diseased lings, and renal failure by Cornell. My heart is shattered and my soul is broken. I will never get over this, and will miss my girl for the rest of my life.

Donna

My precious girl cat, my heart is breaking. Your passing to the other side came too soon and too suddenly. I miss your sweet face, your beautiful long whiskers and soft fur, your tiny voice. Part of me still can't believe that you are gone. Dear Helmsley, it was a privilege and a joy to be your caretaker as you brought nothing but sweetness into my life. I will see you on the other side, dear baby girl.

Jeanne Calkins

A great companion and friend.
You will be missed and always remembered and loved.

Phil & Claudia Hammett

She will always be "My Beautiful Girl". But I know that now she is with her daughter, My Angel Rufus, that we lost too soon on 7-25-05. I miss you both more than I can say, and I will love you forever. Be happy together.

Wanda Loudermilk

American and Canadian Champion Tokamar Wizard of Melrose was a wonderful friend and showdog.
He loved showing as much as barking at squirrels.
Also a great actor he played Toto in a 6 day production of the Wizard of Oz.
When kids came up to greet him he always had a tail wag for them
Not to many kisses were given out but he loved a good ear rub
He will dearly be missed
I thank God for the almost 17 years with him and
his kids and grandkids that will take his place till I can see him again

Diane Ondo

Henry was full of love and affection. He is so dearly missed!

Denise Polley

He was a really sweet cat. He was really nice to EVERYBODY, he even let a little girl he didn't know grab him and drape him over her shoulder. She later called him "Henry the Nice Cat". He had amazing smarts, and good looks! I still miss him terribly.

J. P.

Henry was a gentle and kind soul.
He loved all people and loved for other dogs to come play in his yard.
He was a great athelete, always swimming after balls at the doggie beach.
He also loved being with us and listening to music.
We miss him already and are so sad he is gone.
He made us the happiest doggie parents ever.
We love you Henry.
You can never be replaced.

Amanda and Jeff Glickman

"It was heaven here with you."

I loved you so. Murphy and I will miss you every day.

Mavis Bowman

Matt and Nat

Our beloved Henry was fighting Lymphoma for a year.
He received chemo treatments as well as weekly acupuncture.
Monday morning, 3/12/07, he woke up with a swollen rear leg.
With many vet visits, no one really knew what was wrong.
He had trouble walking and his leg kept swelling with each day.
He was admitted into the vet hospital on Wednesday.
They pumped him full of antiobiotics and pain medicine.
He didn't respond to any treatment.
The infection kept crawling up his leg and underneath his tummy.

On Thursday, March 15th, I had to make the painful decision to put him to sleep.
This was the hardest thing I have ever had to do.
Every cell in my body hurts and misses him terribly.
Henry was the sweetest dog there ever was.
His gentle eyes and compassionate disposition was like none I have ever seen.
Everyone loved Henry...he touched everyone's lives with his kind heart.
We miss him terribly.
He was only 6 years old.
I miss my yellow dog so much.

Kristine

Henry, honey I am so sorry what happened to you.
I am so upset that I was unable to stop the awful things that he did to you.
Please know that I love you and miss you every day.
And that I am doing everything I can to make sure that horrible man pays dearly for killing you.
I will hold you again baby. Be good, momma loves you.

My baby Henry, a tiny chihuahua was taken from our home and killed maliciously.
THe man accused is currently in court.
Please help stop animal cruelty.
Keep your babies close and safe.
Thank you.

Tandy & Amanda Reinhart

Henry was the best dog I've ever had, and I've had many. He was faithful, loyal, loving and cheerful every day of his life and I was with him to the end when the time came for him to be put down. He was the one constant in my life through many turbulent years, and he never failed to be my friend and confidant. When the time comes for me to pass to the Great Beyond, I know Henry will be there to greet me.

Alice Collinsworth

Oh, Henry, my heart aches for you. You were a gentle soul who was here for me during some very tough times. Mom called you my guardian angel. You came into our lives at the start of some huge losses for our family and kept me sane during my darkest hours. I miss you deeply. As we approach the 1 year anniversary of your death, I hope that you will somehow make your presence known to me. Henry you were loved so much, and missed even more.

Mom & Dad

Henry will be in our hearts forever.
He was one special dog that everyone loved.
I know he will still watch over us in spirit.
We love and miss you so much Henry.

Kathy Acero

To my darling angel Hen Ben, We have loved you for so long and with all our hearts.
We miss so.
You and Myf are together now.
No one could keep you parted for long.
Thank you my darling for being our best friend and our guardian and protector.
You were so brave and so sweet and so soft.
Daddy and Mummy will hold you in their hearts forever.
Now you can play and swim and run without pain or fear.
You have the whole of our hearts my darling.
Until we meet again.
All our love to you and little Myffa girl, Mum and Dad xxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Dear Henry,

You were only with us for 2 weeks, but I knew I loved you. Mabel didn't mean to kill you, but you scared her jumping down on her while she was sleeping. I couldn't save you but I tried. Those green eyes. Go be with Katie, Shadow, Whitie, Rusty, Garrett, Grizzly, Ima,Ceasar,and Suggles. Mommy loves you.

You were my house rabbit and both you and Tiffany(who is now gone)were best friends who looked out for one another.I will see you over the Rainbow Bridge someday.You will never be forgotten.

Linda Ladensack

This is for Henry my Grandfather's Cat. His dear friend and companion.
Henry you were the sweetest and most gentle of Cats I've ever had the pleasure to have known. You wern't my Cat but you were a part of my family and I will miss you so very much. I know Pap is missing you right now. I'm sorry you had to leave us before your time.
God bless you Henry for making my Pap's life so happy. I will miss you my sweet little friend. Henry you will be never forgotten.

God Bless,
Anne

We will miss you, our sweet little Henson.
We loved our Mister Licky-Licky and miss hearing you click across the kitchen floor.
I smell your blankets everyday so that I can remember everything about you.
Dr. Davis gave us your footprints on a tile...it made me cry!
I miss giving your feet little kisses.
I miss brushing your pretty hair.
I miss your little eyes.
I can't wait to see you again in heaven.
Salem, Cherokee and Sparky miss you too.

Anna & Chris Szajna

She was my baby, I loved her so much...I wish she stayed awhile more...I loved her to pieces...Why did God take her so soon?
She was my true child like she came from my body....I miss you Heppy baby, and will see you
soon.

mommy

I love you, Herbert. You will always be in my heart. You were the most special little guy. You brought me so much joy.

Keep on playing with your snake toy on the Rainbow Bridge.
We will meet again.

Michael Jones

You will always have a special place in our hearts, we miss you so much ... Love you always and forever ... Roll It... !!! YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO US!!

Cathy and Donald Cummins

Hercules you are missed very much. I remember kneeling at your side and telling you it was ok for you to leave and cross the Rainbow Bridge.
Everyone who knew you were afraid because you were so big, but you were as gentle as a lamb.
You are now in a place that is pain free and we will see you again. Rest In Peace.

Marlene

Hercules you are the last of your family. You fought the battle of cancer as did your Mom (Beauty) your Dad (Barney) your Brother (Pee Wee) and your sister (Sabrina)

Cross the Rainbow Bridge in peace. You are in our hearts forever.

Marlene

hercules, you came to us on halloween night.you were one of the best dogs anyone could ever have.everytime you heard us start up the four wheeler you were ready to go. we love you very much!!!

Emily, Derrik, & Jarred

Dearest Hercules, we'll miss seeing your cheeky little head popping out from your mushroom hut. we'll miss patting your silky grey fur when you are feeding. we'll miss seeing you lying flat on your wheel, clumsily balancing. I'll miss you yawning whenever I went to check on you in the morning. We'll miss playing with you in your playpen. We'll miss you greeting us whenever you sense us around. You are so special in your own way that we are so lucky to have you. You have made us so happy whenever we come back after a long hard day.

Hercules, you are so missed by both us. We love you dearly. We'll always remember you and we know you will be waiting to be together again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Li Ling

Thank you for giving us the most amazing 15 yrs imaginable. I will miss your nose resting on the side of the bed in the morning, rooting for my hand. I love you so much and make sure you give Dad a big kiss for me!

Nicole

I saw your picture on line and rescued you on your PTS day. You were two years old and weighed a skinny 50 lbs. You were abused and scared, and didn't like traffic, being hugged, or having your feet touched. Two years later, even though you have four brothers, you're my best friend. I love how you growl/talk to me and wag your whole body when you see me coming. Bringing you to the vet on your last day was the hardest thing I have ever done. I feel I betrayed your trust holding you while you got your first shot, and I couldn't say I loved you enough as your 80 lb body crumpled against me and then onto the floor. I laid on the floor with you for half an hour after you were gone, and now my heart feels so empty it's unbearable. I hope you'll wait for me on the other side. You were a great friend.

Todd Lindevald

Thank you, Hercules, for being the most wonderful and loving friend.
Thank you for always greeting us with a loud meow and rub on the leg.
Thank you for comforting us when we were sad.
Thank you hercules, for giving us countless hours of entertainment, affection, and joy.
We miss seeing your beautiful face looking up at us. If I could only touch that soft hair one more time, give you one more kiss.
This is farewell but not goodbye, for we will be with you again, soon.
We love you so much, Hercy boy!

Larisa and Jack Mantor

To our beloved Hercules, Hercules was a rescued Greyound that my husband and I decided to rescue in August of 2004, Hercules was a very abused Greyhound while he was on the track racing, Hercules had many issues and aniexties which took my husband and I 2-1/2 years to really try our best to make Hercules just a dog, but it was truly impossible, Hercules attacked my husband and Hercules was diagnosed with Brain Aniexty Disorder and after consulting with our Vet the best for Hercules was to be put down before he hurt someone and devasted our lives, but our lives were devasted on January 9, 2007 when we had to put our beloved Hercules down.
I stress this with all my heart to anyone who reads this and has an interest in rescuing a Greyhound, please, please make sure it is from a reputiable organization, make sure, ask questions about the Greyhound, the Greyhounds background, before you bring him into your home so that this never happens to you, I cannot stress this enough please do research on Greyhounds and the organization you intend to rescue your Grey from, our hearts are broken he was a beautiful, lovely dog, but had a nasty streak which could not be fixed and it was all do to his time at the track, the abuse the dog suffered was embetted in him, so please do your homework before deciding on adopting a Grey they are great dogs but do your research, I don't want to see anyone go through what my husband and I had to go through.

Sue and Mike Chamberlain

Hercules was the most wonderful and faithful companion. He was hit by a car and paralyzed and although we hated to, had to put him down so he could go onto the Rainbow Bridge and wait for us. He will live on in our hearts forever.

Minnie Martinez

You came to me in a very round about way, but it made no difference because I loved you all the way.
I think of you and miss you all the time.
You are in my heart forever.

Bobby McQueen

I don't know what to say.
Herky knows the relationship we shared and how much I love him and miss him.
He will always be part of our family.

Jennifer Pearson

Herman was the biggest joy in my life. no one around me really knew how much i loved him. he was the first to greet me when i came home from work, and the last to go to bed with me at night, as he would snuggle under the covers with me. he was the first thing i saw when i woke up every morning. he was more person-like than cat-like; he was the sweetest cat anyone had ever seen. he never once was mean to anyone. you could flop him around like a pancake and he loved it. i called him "my little pancake boy".

Amy Revolt

Thanks, old man, for all the love & friendship. We all miss you, especially Anthony. Poor Corey keeps looking for his favorite nap buddy. We will carry your purrs in our hearts until we meet again over the Bridge where you will be well again, forever.

Gretchen, Anthony & The Other 8

Herne, my "Herne Angel", a great hunter, a gentle soul.
I will miss you my sweet friend, and the things of daily life you did that were special and dear to me.
You taught me life lessons, even to the very end.
Bless you my sweet Angel Herne.
Go in peace, my dear friend.

Margaret Stricklett and Michael Atkinson

My boy with the lovey eyes

Kristine Keller

The best dog ever.

Joy Tiz

We will miss you jumping up happily when we come home from work, and your knowing eyes. Like you knew what we were saying to you. You were the smartest dog in the world.
Your loving family.

Terry, Gail & Michael Paggi

Pretzel was a wonderful, loyal, fun-loving companion who will be missed greatly.
He gave me unwavering loving support whenever I needed it and great comfort.
I loved him dearly.
He was my baby for 17 wonderful years.

Elizabeth Brulc

To our dear departed Herschel, you are greatly missed.
You may have been taken sooner than we expected but you will always be in our hearts.
You're smiling face will always be a happy memory of your unconditional love & your innocence.
We hope that you will always be with us in spirit for we will never forget you.

Jennifer, Gina, & Mike

Hershey was always a loving happy go lucky cat. We adopted him in 2002 at just over a year old. He was a special needs kitty that we adopted from a cat haven place in Memphis. The second I saw him I knew he was my cat, and true enough always was. He would greet me at the door every day, layed in my lap, loved to play, and slept with me every night. We have had other cats, and still have one cat as well as our 4 dogs, who all will miss their "brother" dearly. Today was the hardest thing I ever had to do letting him go, and I know he is happy and healthy once more, and will be watching over me until I can greet him at the Rainbow Bridge one day. I will miss my little "meow meow" so dearly, and even now as the tears flow, I know in my heart and soul he is ok now and keeping God's lap warm tonight. I love you Hershey, and Mommy and Daddy miss you very very much!!

Shawna Greene

Hershay was my shadow and my secret keeper.and my bread thief and raskells best friend not to mention undertakers play buddy.

Lisa Hicks

My Hershey, My Big Boy, My Partner.

You filled my life with joy, LOVE and unforgetable memories.I will miss you dearly. I know you will be waiting on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge when it's my time.

Mary Shaffer

It will be a year on Oct. 28th and I still think about you everyday and miss you so much my little boy. You did not have much time with us but I guess you had to leave me because it was your time. Rest in Peace my little angel and I still love you so much. I will see you again someday.

Barbara

I thought I would be strong, but it was a shock to all of us.
We all miss your little brown face and wonderful kisses.
You always soothe me when I felt bad.
You were a loyal pet always by my side.
You were the best and I miss you.
I am sure your doggie brothers and sister miss you too.
You were there for them when they needed you.
You are one of a kind and we loved you for being you.
I loved it when you chased your tail and when you waited patiently on your carpet for a treat. I am glad you went in your sleep and we tried to make everything comfortable that night.
I will miss you forever.
Daddy, Andrew and Charles miss you too. How I wish I could hold you in my arms one more time.

Lucille

You were a wonderful friend and we will look for you on the otherside

Kim White & Tammy Burrill

Hershey was the first pet that I alone had owned, sure I had a lot of pets before him, but he was my own pet. I rescued him from my 4th grade calssroom when there was a threat of him going to the SPCA. Hershey and I had a lot of fun together, but unfortunately I had to make the hardest decision of my life. He supposedly had a canceruos tumor in his behind, and was in pain. So, we had to put him to rest. I loved him so very much, and I still do. And I thank God that Hershey came into my life and showed me a true friendship.

Emily Belanger

Hershey,

Your passing was so unexpected and painful.
I so hoped for a few more years of happiness with you.
I miss cuddling you and kissing your wiggly nose.
I take comfort in knowing that you are playing with Bridie and Joey.
You are my angel bunny, and we will be together again someday.
I love you, honey bunny.
Mama

We love you Hershey and we will miss you. You were our first baby and you were kind to our human babies.

Laura Heuer

Hershey should of been in a magic act She had some special skills. We will miss her & someday we will see her again

Rob Rutherford

HERSHEY BEAR

YOU WERE THE JOY OF OUR LIVES. ALTHOUGH YOU WERE ONLY WITH US FOR 5 VERY SHORT YEARS, YOU WILL LIVE IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER. WE COULD NOT LOOK INTO THOSE BIG BROWN EYES WITHOUT MELTING. THE WAY YOU WAITED AT THE WINDOW FOR US TO COME HOME, THE WAY YOU LAUGHED OUT LOUD WHEN BOO WOULD RUB YOUR TUMMY, THE WAY YOU EXPERTLY UNWRAPPED THE GODIVA CHOCOLATE AND ATE THE WHOLE BOX, THE WAY YOU LOUNGED IN THE GRANDKIDS POOL, THE WAY YOU RAN TO MOMMY'S CAR TO GO FOR A RIDE. THE WAY YOU COULDN'T WALK PAST WITHOUT A BIG GOOEY LICK. YOU WERE THE SWEETEST,MOST LOVING DOG WE HAVE EVER KNOWN. OUR HEARTS ARE SAD BUT WE KNOW YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE, WITHOUT PAIN. WE KNOW YOU WILL BE WAITING FOR US ON THE OTHER SIDE WITH THAT SWEET SWEET SMILE. WE LOVE YOU AND OUR HEARTS WILL BE IMPRINTED WITH YOUR LOVE FOREVER. THANK YOU FOR THE PRIVLIDGE OF BEING A MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY,

LOVE,

BOO,MOMMY AND COVA

Hershey--We love you and miss you very much.
You will be in our hearts forever.

Bonnie

Hershey you were a little 3 month stray starved and covered in fleas when you follwed me home. I got you to the vet, got your shots and got you fixed, but you still wanted to go outside. I still will never know what happened in an hour and a half that morning you went to heaven. I wish I would have kept you in that morning, but I let you go to be free. At least I gave you 3 wonderful months of love. You were getting so big and beautiful. You are buried beside my little Mercedes and I hope he is looking out for you at Rainbow Bridge. I will never forget our short time together. I love you and miss you so much, so do Halle and Lily. Not sure about Zack. Rest in Peace my little 6 month old boy.

Barbara Thornsberry

We had a long and wonderful life together.
You were the best friend I have ever had.
You got sick and I tried to make yur last days as comfrtable as possible.
I hope you understood when I had to decide to let you go.
You were not living only exisiting.
I miss you and still love you much

Cathy Skortz

Sweet Hershey, we miss you so much!

Audra, Todd, Jordan, Jessie and Eli Good

Hesti Lu you were the best girl ever - Mamma's Teddybear.
It was devastately horrible when I lost your brother, but I had you to console me so losing you was the hardest thing I have ever done, because now I am so alone.
Reminders of you are everywhere and I miss your presence, your scent, and even hearing your breaths.
There was no one to get me out of bed this morning and herd me to the back door to go out.
No one to hurdle in the kitchen floor while I made breakfast.
My heart aches.
I would not have traded one day with you to have avoided this pain and I would have gladly given you years of my own life to have had you with me longer.
Give Thor my love and I will see you both at Rainbow Bridge when my time here on earth is complete.
I love you big girl.
People used to say I took good care of you, but it was actually you who took care of me all along.
Always yours, Mamma

The sweet, happy, energetic spirit you shared with us truly made us better people. Your special joy was contagious.
It will never be forgotten.

Kathleen and Ed

I lost my very best friend Heylee.
I didn't imagine that I could love a dog as much as I loved her.
The feelings were mutual she loved me just as much. She is thought of everyday and will be missed until we meet again.
She was the best dog anyone could ever wish for!!!
She will never be forgotten!

Mistie

HIDDEN,
WE KNOW YOU HAVE MADE IT TO THE BRIDGE...PLAY, RUN, BE FREE...WE'LL BE THERE TO GETCHA, THAT'S A PROMISE...
WE LOVE YOU, MISS YOU, AND THE HOLE IN OUR HEARTS WILL NOT HEAL UNTIL WE REUNITE!!!

OUR FLUFFY LOVE,
DADDY, AND MOMMY

Hidden was the "rock" of our family. She brighten my day and made sure I would get up to enjoy life with her. She will forever be missed and have a special place in the heats of all that had the pleasure to know her. She was and still is special to this family.

David

Ode to my little Higgins

Did you have to take my kitten, dear God?
He was only three years old!
He had no time to enjoy his life
And his presence was more than gold.

Did you really need that kitty?
You have lots away up there.
He had no time to catch some mice
And the house is just so bare!

I miss his pussycat chatter,
His waking me in the night,
And things here just don't matter.
My life just isn't right.

I know You had good reasons, Lord.
And You spared him lots of pain,
But I wish I knew those reasons though
Cause I want Higgins back again!

Higgie was a love, Lord.
He had a terrible start.
He meowed so cute and was so sweet
Even though he wasn't smart.

It was just so very sudden and
The death was just too quick.
Did I do enough or didn't see
That he was really sick?

Could I have been more loving?
Did he feel sometimes outcast?
I tried my best to love him most
But I have our other cat!

I remember all the kisses and
The cuddling in our bed.
The way he watched the birds and squirrels
On the couch back behind my head.

But till my heart stops breaking,
And until the shock is o'er,
I need Your love and grace, O Lord
Cause my Higgie is no more.

Beth

To Chipmunk, a very special, very loved dog.

Bob Chirillo

My beloved companion for more than 18 years. friends came and went and even my marriage did not withstood but you stayed always be my side holding my paw. Proud, strong, a fighter until the end!. You taught me how to stand my ground and give my hundred percent in love and work. I am not sure how to go on without your "smile", your "licky kisses", your wise counsel, your deep voice. I miss holding your paw and looking into your beautiful eyes. Until we meet again..
Love,
Mom

Thank you for being such a good friend to me.
So kind and gentle.
Everybody in Singapore misses you too.

Veronica

Hilka, My best girl. My Hilka Bear. I still miss you everyday. You were my first and my best friend. Love you Always.

Nanette Echols

Dearest Hillary,

You left us today, but we know you are in a better place.
I hope you and Sam are having a great time together - watching birds and the other animals.

Sweetpea, you will be missed very much by your Dad, me, and you brother, Polie.
We will miss the special snuggle times during the day, our bedtime snuggles, our talks, your expressive "feed me now", and your help with the computer.

You will be in our hearts forever.
Love, Mom and Dad

Hilton was my little sweetie. Everyday, when I would come home he would be so excited to see me. Jumping up and down until I would pick him up to say hello. He loved me and I love him like no other. I miss his sweet little face and big bark. He was a good boy. He was part of our family and he is missed very much.

Arianna

Today Himi you went to a better place. You are in the backyard with Chiquita which passed on May 30/02, Belle which passed on March 18/03, and Himi on May 3/07. I hope that you are happy, we will all miss you. Love Jo-Ann, Alf, Vince, & Guy.

Dearest Howie, Blackie, Baby and Bob
Sweet little kitty angels, you are now where there is no pain, no hunger and lots of sunshine!
Your mommy and daddy miss you bunches! And so do I. Sweep down every now and then to whisper sweet little kitty purrs in your mom and dad's ear-just to remind them that you are still with them.

Missing and loving you
"Aunt" Angie

love u miss u seeu soon.

Dave & Deb

Hissy, you were a beautiful cat and we will miss you.
We love you.

The Moore's

This wonderful dog came into our life in 1994 and brought us lots of joy and laughter.
He was always there to greet us when we came home and always there when we left.
It seemed that he was more human than dog.
There are no words that can express the sorrow and the lonelyness that we are feeling now that our pal has passed on.
We know that he is God's hands and he is running and jumping like a puppy once again totally out of pain.
We truly miss our boy.

Bruce Whited

My beloved HK, you were an inspiration from the second you were born...but at 10 days old we discovered you would never have sight...born w/o eyes.
This in no way affected your zest for life and
you brought joy and astonishment to all.
Your love given was immeasurable!
You had your seeing eye brother for 17 of your years, and only mom and dad for the next 6.
Little man, you gave us the best 23 years of our lives!
You will never be forgotten in memory or in print or in any dimention computers can reach.
Thank you for holding on...to ease us onward.
Till we see and hold you again...me-momma and my-daddy

Ho, it's been 5 years ago today that you left us and we still miss you so much. We know you are happy and pain free, romping with Hooter, Sugars, Motie, Mattie and now Dos.

You will be forever in our hearts - we love and miss you still. Till we meet again, my dear friend...............

The Robbins

To our beloved dog who passed so young from this world. We miss you deeply and will always love you. You gave us a lifetime of joy and companionship in your short stay on earth. Mom, Dad and Taylor hope to be with you someday at the Rainbow Bridge.

Kelly Covelens

Hobbes left us yesterday and we are feeling such a big void, physically and mentally.
He was our baby for 17 years, he brought us such joy and happiness that nothing can be compared with.
We miss him terribly, and see him everywhere in our house.
Even though we know he's in heaven with his brother, Sammie, who passed away about a year ago, it is still difficult for us and will be for a very long time.

Hobbes, our good boy, mommie and daddy love you so much, and we miss you.

Esther and Willy

Bye baby boy!
Abbey will be waiting for you at the bridge!

Nikki & Amanda

You were the start of the Hobbes show.
Whether riding a skateboard, getting a massage or joining me in drinking the last drops of a martini, you were always entertaining me.
You picked me.
I didn't want to take you home because you looked like a little rat.
Well, I did, and you grew up to be a beautiful boy.
I was privledged to be able to be your friend and caretaker for almost 15 years.
You made it through 2 knarly hospital stays and always were there when we came through the door.
I miss you "talking" and nuzzling and seeing you around every corner.
You were one of the loves of my life and you will always be remembered lovingly.
The curtain is now closed.

Tena Montoya

Kitty (Hobbes) became a memory at 2:58 PM. His kidney just shut down all of a sudden and within a single day he went from the delight he was to just photographs and memories. His last hours, at home, were not painful, he was just tired from all the toxins accumulating in his body. A part of us died that day. They say time heals all wounds, but I don't want it to. Not this one.

He was our North, our South, our East and West,
Our working week and Sunday rest,
Our noon, midnight, Our talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good. - W.H. Auden (modified)

Dinesh

Hobbes, you were a wonderful cat. i love you very much. I will never forget your playfulness, and how loving you were. forever loved & missed, yet never forgotten.

Gwen Miller

To Hobbes, With Love

People can often be divided into two groups: Cat People and Non Cat People. I am firmly on the side of Cat People. I’ve loved cats all my life and have been blessed with having the best cats (excluding SZ’s awesome horde, of course) in the whole world.

I’ve believed that what have set my cats apart from the rest, is that even Non Cat People like them. They’ve all had “personality plus”, whether it was their general demeanor, their playfulness, or their exquisite feline dignity. Non cat people have often said to me, “You know, I don’t generally like cats, but your cats are cool”. And, being the cat lover I am, I believe them.

Especially when it came to Hobbes.

When Hobbes Met MaryC

It was in my second year of teaching Kindergarten when one fine spring day, an adorable young cat (not a kitten, but not that far off from the kitten age) waltzed into the open door of my classroom. Immediately, my students shrieked with delight, “Can we keep it?!!”, as though all I needed was a cat-sized habitrail and we had a brand new classroom pet (our hamster, Gizmo had passed that January). “No,we can’t keep a cat in the classroom!” and I picked the long haired kitty up and proceeded to shove him out the first story window. I returned to my language arts lesson when–you guessed it–the cat came back, it wouldn’t stay away. I picked it up, and it hugged me. Literally. Both paws on my shoulders, holding me close and purring loudly. Suddenly, I had a cat.

I didn’t want a cat. My beloved “Kitty”(yeah, yeah, I know. Blame my mom. She trained my cat to come to “Kitty”. I had picked an elvish name from LOTR, good geek that I was…) had died that last december of old age, and I swore no other cat would ever take her place in my heart. But, there was this cat, hugging me and purring. And refusing to go away. And so, I had a new cat.

Hobbes and Maryc

This cat was all mine. No mom to name it something goofy, so I was determined to choose a cool name. Unfortunately, the cat was determined to ignore any name I chose. Even when I tried to bribe it with treats. I would call it by my latest chosen name (I think I tried Val Jean at one point, having seen the B’way musical that winter), but he wouldn’t have it. It wasn’t until one night, while I was reading a Xmas gift from my brother–a Calvin and Hobbes collection, that I thought, “Hobbes is a good name for a cat”. So I looked over at where he was dozing and said, “Hobbes?”, and he looked right at me. “So you’re name is Hobbes?”, he padded over to me and jumped in my lap. He not only chose his owner, he chose his own damn name. How very “Hobbes” of him.

Hobbes was everything you could want in a cat: dignified, playful and almost obscenely affectionate. He was the best friend I could ever ask for. What’s more, he was willing to share me. First with my boyfriend, and then (almost 4 years later) with a new little kitten (who also decided I was her owner) we named Riley.

March 21, 2007

On Wednesday, March 21, I took Hobbes to our vet, who verified my recent fears for Hobbes: he had lymphoma. It had spread to his heart and his liver. There was no treatment that would cure him.

They brought my boy into the room. Scott and I took turns holding him, saying good-by. Scott thanked him for sharing me for the past 10 years, and I told him how much I loved him and how I’d never forget how he came into my life, and as I whispered and stroked him, he gently, softly, and lovingly went to rest.

In his later years, Hobbes was our “punk”(always getting up on the couch and clawing the bejeebers out of it), our “Mr. Stinky”(whom Riley always covered for) and our “Poopsmith” (his droppings became legend). But no matter what nickname we came up for him, he was always, and will forever be, Hobbes–The best and coolest cat a human could ever hope for.

Mary Clevenger

Hobbs, you were the best big friend a person could ever hope to have. We played with each other, played tricks on each other, and spent many happy hours just enjoying each others' presence. Having you choose me to be your friend is a privelige that could not be bought for all the riches of this world. Although I will miss your enthusastic greeting in the morning, and your roaring at night, I know you are with me in spirit. Our separation will be but a brief one in the scheme of things. Before we know it, we will be together again forever!

Tim Stoffel

You were in our lives for 13 years and we loved you so much..Our hearts are broken that you are now gone...Ginger misses you too...Be in peace and know that we will always love you...

Matt, Chris and Cam

What a special, loving friend he was.
He was a gift from a friend recovering from a painful wound.
For twelve years he traveled the world with me, curling up by my side every night.
I miss him terribly now and always will.
Rest in peace, my little loved one.

Peggy

Hobie, was my heart-dog, my soul-mate and truest of all companions.She was so very special in so many ways and to know her, definately was to LOVE her.She was 45lbs. of genuine love with the purest of hearts and the never ending look of deep devotion in her eyes for me. How special and important I feel to have been everything to my girl that she was to me.There are'nt words to describe the bond we shared for thirteen years.It was truly unique and the greatest love I've ever known.I will forever miss her bright eyes, her endless wagging tail and the kisses that never seemed to end, no matter how she was feeling.

I can't wait to cross the Bridge and be with Hobie once again and forever. In the mean time, I'll spend my days on earth taking care of my other two dogs and always find it in my heart to devote myself to the rescue and well-being of dogs that are less fortunate. Hobie was a rescue dog, as are my other two. It's funny that one day I rescued Hobie from death row(literally), and every day after that, she rescued me from the sadness of every day life, such as losing my mom, losing my girlfriend to pancreatic cancer and losing Hobie's big sister, Gina last year. I don't know what I would've done without her in my life. She was just as beautiful inside as she was outside. She had a face like a fawn and the gentleness to match.

I LOVE you Hobie girl, and my heart won't be whole until we are together again.God watch over you and keep you safe.

Love from 'Your Donna'

My beloved Hobie passed away today, and I was with him as I saw him peacefully go.
He was so many things to me..the one consistent heartbeat I came home to for the past 13 years since I brought him home after adopting him.
I still remember how unbelievably beautiful he was when I first saw him, his blue eyes, his gorgeous seal point coat, he took his time to love me, his new Mom, but after a short time, we were bonded forever.
He was my family; my little boy.
Hobie was known and loved by many.
He was a sweet, loveable guy to all who met him.
Hobie is in my heart forever, and will always be a reminder of how significant and powerful love can be.

Kathy Lindsey

I never thought I could love another dog, but the moment I saw you I fell in love with you.
You were so energetic and full of surprises. Unknowingly, I would turn around and you would be in the shower with me.
I hated the blackbirds and squirrels you would bring me and the teeth marks in my underwear that you would steal when the drawer was open.
I know you loved to skate with Kevin and knew you were going swimming when we put on your goggles.
You hated old ladies with umbrellas and shopping bags and most of all somehow knew when the UPS truck was at the end of the block.
You never got an A on your grooming report card, but always came home looking great.
I miss the figure 8 you did through the house and your bringing me you favorite toys, the "peas in the pod" and the ACE bandages you stole from the closet.
I miss you waiting for me at the bathroom door every morning while I shower.
I miss you curling up at my feet at night and Dad misses you at the dinner table and telling you "no fair snoring" before bed.
You were always there for us and brought us so much joy.
You survived 3 boys and tolerated 4 grandchildren.
As we started growing older, so did you.
Your vision was dimming, your hearing was poor, and you no longer could do the stairs.
My barking dog suddenly didn't bark anymore.
When you no longer could walk, I knew in my heart I wasn't being fair to you.
It was so hard to say good-by.
My heart is broken and my tears are many.
So my sweet HoBo, watch for us on the bridge, play hard, bark loud, chase birds and squirrels, and "no fair snoring."
Thank you for choosing us!

Carl & Kaaren

Hobo, you will be missed by so many people.
You died a senseless death and that makes it so much harder.
Your "daddy" is having a very hard time with this and I wish you could give him a sign that you're OK.
I hope you and Annie and Black Jack and Widget have found each other.
Beau and Daisy are greaving so much.
They won't leave your grave for very long.
We all love and miss you very much.
It's just not the same.
Love, your "aunt"
Connie

Hobo, my first best friend. I know you are chasing rabbits in the sun somewhere. Just know that I love you very much - I have never forgotten you. Wait for me at the bridge - I will see you there someday - I promise.

I love you, Kim

To our big boy - we miss kissing the pig farm. For always and ever our baby you'll be. We love you! Momma,Daddy, Can-Can and Baby Schmells

To my sweet bito- baby, mommy and daddy miss you so much. We love you and will meet you at the bridge, till then take care of gramma and tell the others we still miss and love them.

Theresa Alford-Lowe

My sweet Hoggle, you are lost to me.
I pray you are safe and with your brother Harley.
Be safe and fly high - I miss you both very much!

Sheryl

We miss you and always will love and remember you.

Deb, Chris, CJ, and Stephanie

Hokie we love you and miss you so much. We will miss taking you to the beach, playing ball, going for walks and rides, and just loving and hugging on you. What we would give just to kiss and hug you again. Hokie, we hope with all our hearts to see you again. The last few days have been heartbreaking and we just can't stop crying. The house has so many memories of you and everywhere I look I see reminders of you. Every night in bed I still move my legs so you have your spot at my feet.What a wonderful life you gave us. You have been there for everything-our engagement, our wedding, our first house, Emma's birth, Jackson's birth and I don't know how to face the next chapters in life without you beside us. WE LOVE YOU BIG H!

The Thompson Family

thank you for loving me

Debi Hoohuli

For almost 11 yrs you were a huge part of our family. Forever loyal and always by my side. You knew my moods, you probably knew me even better than I know myself. The welcome I got when I came home - no matter where I'd been - an hour, a day, a week - it didn't matter. I miss you so much. I still can't believe you are no longer with us. Your illness was so sudden - and the decision I made to put you to sleep was to stop your pain - even though it broke my heart and still does.
I hope that wherever you are now you are bobbing along like you used to and you are happy. Thank you for being my best friend.

Mary Martin-Sullivan

To the best friend and companion anyone could ask for. This dog helped me through some of the most difficult times in my life, none of which can hold a candle to the difficulties i have in her loss. Her goal in life was to please me and always with a happy face. Holly always knew when to be close to me, and did so up till her final hour.. I will never forget you..

Lyle Edwards

Holly died peacefully today after a 4 month battle with Lymphoma, goodnight my darling, sweet dreams and i hope you are now free.
I love and miss you very much.
You will always be in my heart and are my best friend.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sarah Shenton

You came to our family because your mommy wasn't able to care for you anymore. You were only 2 weeks old when we brought you into our home. We bottle fed you and kept you warm inside a tube sock, but you were to sick to pull through. I think about you everyday, and I'm so sorry I couldn't do more for you. We miss you, Holly.

April

You are forever in my heart.
I love you, Holly.

Amy Campbell

She much adored cat by her companion Cee Cee and her owner. She adored every one she met and she will be well missed by the community. I unerstand Holly that noone can replace, and life must go on.

Susan Weaver

We did not want to let you go but we knew your body could no longer support your spirit.
Now you will be with your boys - Wheeler, Kenny and Petey and can "patrol" God's yard, happy and healthy.
We love you and we will miss you.

Mom, Dad, Chaz, Bebe, and Jag

Holly you were are dream girl so good you loved the Briards but over the last year we have lost you all one by one we had to do the right thing for you because we loved you all so much

run free Holly with Ben. Tilly. Kia
run like the wind as you used when your legs were young.

Angie

Dear sweet Holly, you left us much too soon and much too suddenly. We miss you terribly, but we know that you have no more pain or suffering. That gives us comfort. Your loving "mom and dad", Stephanie and Marty.

HOLLY, I MISS YOU SO VERY, VERY MUCH

Brian Ewald

Holly, was my best friend for 10 years.
I adopted her from the animal shelter and she was approx. 2 years old. Since then I cared and loved for 10 years and she died in my arms 3 wks ago.
I have a part of me gone now.
I miss her so much and feel I may never get that back.
She was the sweetest dog you could ever have known.
I know God had a reason for taking her but Holly you know I love you and will see you in heaven.

Kaye

We found Holly shivering in the snow at the school where my mother worked.. she walked in through the front doors, frost on her paws, pushing on the inside doors to be let in. The teachers and principal wanted to put her back outside and close the doors, said 'she came in from the cold, she can survive out there just fine'. My mother objected and took Holly home. Our other two older cats weren't too kind on letting a new cat onto thier turf, they would fight with her relentlessly, so we had to keep Holly seperated in a room. Once, after missing for a week, she came home with a broken tail and an injured eye. Even after everything she had been through, she was very loving and warm. There'll always be a cold spot on that couch when I come home and am too drunk or tired to get to my bed.. I'll miss you, Holly

Brian Stewart

My sweet Holly, I miss you so much.
You were my friend, my companion and my baby.
My heart aches but I know you are romping and playing.
You will always be in my heart.

Love, Mommie

Holly
she held the most special place in my heart.
I am a 24/7 caretaker for a 91 year old parent.
Holly somehow knew this and acted as my caretaker. I was with her until the end, and I believe we will meet at Rainbow Bridge. She was in no way perfect, except to me. How many nights I spent sleeping on the floor to comfort her during a thunderstorm can never be known. My neighbor, a Catholic Deacon, has been over twice to join in prayer for Holly. The book ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN expresses my grief.
There will never equal to her. To honor her love of life I have ordered 100 trees to be planted in a National Forest. She has a beautiful urn, inscribed
SHE GAVE HER ALL TO THOSE SHE LOVED. I truly feel blessed having her to care for.

Robert J Williams, DC

Holly, We love you and will never forget you. You were a joy and no one could ever replace you in your daddy's and mommy's hearts.

Will

Our precious Holly at peace.and no longer in pain.
We will miss you!
Thank you for helping to raise four children and make this house a home!

Dubbin-McCrea Family

Holly, you were the best little pal.
We miss you so much.
Run and play and have a great time in your new place.
Pretty eyes, wait for me at the foot of the bridge.

Beth Kernus

How I miss you, my wee Holly.
The four short years I had you just weren't enough.
I know you were tired; the diabetes and other ailments took their toll.
I can only hope that I gave you half the happiness that you gave me.
I know time will heal my grief, and I will smile at the memories you have given me.
Romp with the big guys, Holly, and hurt no more.
You left footprints on my heart.

Holly's mom

Holly gave us 16 years of love and protection.
She guarded our family until the end of her life. As a puppy she played with her toys, ran and jumped for joy at the sight of us.
Holly was easily trained, but was very independent.
When she was sniffing every blade of grass outside and you called her name, she went into deaf mode.
She came when she was good and ready.
Despite her misgivings she was a faithful friend and a wonderful companion.
We miss her so much.
Holly will always be our sweet girl.
You will always be in our hearts and forever be part of our soul.

Cyndee & Mike Prater

Holly,

We will miss you so much. You were such a special part of our lives and will always remain in our hearts.

Mrs Pearson

My puppy Holly came in to my life 11 yrs ago, that snowy cold January Day, and from then on she has warmed my heart. She was always beside me in everthing I did. I told her that I would always take care of her and I did up to the very end, for what ever reason she was taken from me, I will never fully understand, but will try to except it and go on but as you surely know from Doggie Heaven or where ever. Daddy always loves you and will never forget what we had together.

John Labance

This is a tribute to our dog Holly who gave so much and expected nothing back. We had Holly from being a 6 week old puppy, who came running to me as if to say "pick me pick me"..She had such a personality that everyone loved her, I would walk in from work and she would be wagging her tail so much that you would think it would drop off.I always promised her she would never suffer, the day came that she was to go to the vets for a operation for bladder stones, I was not expecting a call from the vets to say she had cancer of the bladder. My husband and 2 sons came to the vets for us all to say bye to her, she looked at us but never wagged her tail as if to say, let me go , my Husband adored her and wanted her in his arms as the vet put her down. We all cried and I am crying as I write this. I will be getting her ashes this week as I plan to place them in a garden for her. She was the best dog any one could wish for, I miss her so much and loved her so much. Rest in peace Holly x

Jenny

This past week has been one of the most difficult weeks the family has ever had to go through. We lost our "Best Friend", Holly. She really livened up the house with her cheerful and unique personality. She certainly had us trained and it didn't take her long at all. We will miss your kisses, cuddles, nips at our toes, the way she greeted everyone at the door, and her lovable ways. Holly charmed everyone she met, she had your heart with one look. You will never be forgotton and you will always be in our hearts. We miss you terribly HollyBoo. Lot's a Love, Pa, Nana, and your girl. xoxoxoxo

I love you my Greyhound Baby Girl.
God Bless and thank you.
We'll all be together again one day.
Momma loves you and you took a part of me with you, Holly Button. I know you're with Cole now...and Tucker.
Watch for "Little Bit" and keep her with you!

Linda Martis

To my Dear Holly, who Iwill sadly miss, thank you for 15 wonderful years, Ilove you xx

To my sweet girl. Thank you for being my shadow and my good companion. I did not want to say good bye, but I knew it was time. I know you are with grandpa. He will like your company.
I will always love you!
Love,

Holly,
You bought life and lite into my family, You are sadly missed.
You continue to bring strength to your family even now that you are gone.
A true angel to the day you left us. Our hearts are heavy but not at all empty.
Thank you for your years of love. We love you.
Dad,Mom,Gina, and PJ

Hollywood--you were a grand old man and I miss you greatly. I know Hello met you when you crossed so quietly, and that you are whole and healthy again at the Bridge. Play gently with my Cleo, Sophie, Sugarsweetie, Screechie, and Alex too. I love you all very much.

I always have and I will always love you, my sweet boy. I miss you SOOOO much!

Lili Riley

Barbara gave you to me when she could no longer care for you Holstein. You were three years old then. I had 12 blessed years having you as a pet. You and Mickey (cairn terrier) hit it off right away. You became good buddies. You kept each other company while I was at work. You were at my side through family deaths and a divorce. You were truely a loyal friend and companion. You will be missed greatly. It feels so funny not having you at home anymore. You no longer will be greeting me at the door when I arrive home, I miss that. You'll always have a very special place in my heart. Love you,(mommy). Kathy Thompson

Well, what can I say about her? She was a very special friend that I will never forget, and also, the best neighborhood guardian dog to ever roam my street. I still remember very clearly the day I met her, 3 years ago, just when she was about to give birth to her 6 babies, of which I own one, Buster. Now, I just hope that God takes good care of her until we're able to reunite with each other.

Laura Elisa Garza De La Paz

In loving memory of our "energizer puppy" who kept going and going for a long time, no matter what.
He gave us his unconditional love.
May he be free of pain and happy over the rainbow bridge.

Carole Strickland

Homer was there to protect and love my sons when I could not be. I never got to pet this sweet animal, but hope to meet him at the Bridge.

Nancy Paterson (For My Koller Boys and Their Pet)

He was a true friend. When I was ill he stood over me. One day I was going to tell him he was a parrot, guess I will need to wait.

Chris Mooney

Homer, you are so missed.
For 11 years you were my best friend, always by my side, always with a sense of humor and so much love and wisdom. We love you immensely and without end.
It´s not the same without you nor will it ever be.

Homer loved watching the swallows in Madrid in May and the Hummingbirds in Los Angeles all year round.
He loved cornflakes with milk on very special occasions. He often slept with his big orange paws over his eyes, and loved to tell me how much he loved me with his big dramatic tail swishes.

I miss you so much, my dear friend and baby.

Jimmy Shaw

We miss you Homer and will always love you.

Madeline Montelongo

NEVER FORGOTTEN...ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS

Homer, you were a very special cat and everyone loved you.
You were so friendly and sweet. We love you. Don't be too scared, Sammy will come and get you.
We miss you so much, Homer.

Love,

HE WAS AN AWESOME DOG WITH A VERY SHORT LIFE. WE LOVED HIM ALOT

Brian & Mary

To my beautiful golden boy, I miss and love you so much.

Audra

Beloved dog Homey.
We will never forget you.
You were a blessing for the time we had you.
Happy, frisky, vocal, full of personality and love.
I am glad that you did not suffer longer and that you died at home in your bed after a walk in the sunny garden that day. Now you are free from suffering and pain.
In heaven I hope we meet again.
I hope you are romping through a garden right now or napping in a comfortable spot with not a care in the world.
I think you knew you were going.
I am glad you had a last treat and pet before you went.

Mary Chavez

I have never know love as pure and innocent as this gentle creature. Honda greeted me in the morning, hopping around my feet, seeing me off to work, waiting for me to come home, and hopping about in excitement. Watching over me as I slept, being woken up by licks to the face, following me around. Looking over me when I was sick, or just having a bad day. God sent me an angel in the form of a rabbit. Never have I known such love and never have I felt so happy. You will be missed. My friend, God brought you into my life, and God briefly lent you to me. God, I thank you for Honda, and teaching me how to love, through this gentle creature. And God, if possible, and if she has a sprit and is with you, please let her know she was loved by many and we miss her.

Michael Butler

I love you.

Ann

Hondo was a life companion to his sister, Bogey, and raised all three of our children, saw them off to college, and saw two of them get married and have golden retrievers of their own.
Now it's our turn to wish him well and to send him on his way.
Best wishes Hondo dog and may God bless you always.

The Wrong Place

I called your name and you were not there…

I looked for you in the bedroom and the bed was empty.
It never ceased to amaze me how much space on the bed you could take up…the countless hours that you were up there and the many nights we shared it.
I looked for you on the floor because towards the end you couldn’t jump up on the bed anymore.
But you were not there…

I looked for you in the other bedroom but the space where your crate sat was empty.
How many times had you lied there even without being told to “kennel up”.
It was your den…your space…a safe haven for you.
But you were not there…

I looked for you in the kitchen but saw only bare floor where your food and water bowls were.
It looked so empty…so cold.
Eating was always a “religious experience” for you.
But you were not there…

I looked for you by the couch…our favorite place.
Countless hours you lied there with me on the couch.
It was our space…our place where we could shut out the world and be together.
But you were not there…

I went outside to the back yard and your toys were where you last left them.
To see you roll around in the grass always made me smile.
But you were not there…

I came back into the house and out of desperation called your name and then I saw you!
You were running towards me with your ears flapping, your mouth wide open and your tongue hanging out with a goofy look on your face that only I could understand and love.
The disease that crippled you the last few months was gone.
You are perfect...

It was then that I realized that I had been looking for you in the wrong place.
For ten years you were in my heart and you always will be.
It is there I know I will find you…..

Dellisha and The Family

honey bun we love you so much it was a heart brake when me and tyler came home and didnt see you any where we knew that something was missing but we didnt quit excactly know what then when me and tyler were downstairs on the computer mom came down and told us that you had to be put to sleep we love you honey and miss you

love mommy tyler dady and kristin

Honey was a unique dog from the start. We first discovered her roaming our development in the Pocono Mtns. My mother and I tried for days to lure her into our house. Then one day in the winter of 1996, she finally succumbed to our enticing offer of a dog biscuit and warm place to rest. Little did we all know, just a few short days later was the Blizzard of 96. She would have died out there for sure.

Honey was a hunter in her own mind. She enjoyed chasing birds, squirls and the like. Yes, she even managed to get sprayed by a skunk, not just once or twice, but yes folks three times. But to her own credit, she did take down a ground hog. However, she was afraid of water, thunder, fireworks and gunshots. That made for some interesting fun filled fright nights...not.

Honey did grow up with a few friends, and even survived some sibling rivalry with her adopted sister "Spot" We won't mention the stitches incident.

When I decided to move out of my parent's house, and start my own family; my husband and I took Honey with us. I think she secretly liked being the only child, and the snack sharing with my father-in-law. She was around to see the birth of my two beautiful daughters. She never was a fan of children, however, she would never harm them. She would just politely avoid them. OK... She did offer up the occassional "drive by kisses" as I called them. Never sticking around long enough to be tagged by one of the kids.

So that's our Honey in a nutshell. We loved her dearly, and in the end was called to Heaven to drive someone else nuts with all her eccentricities.

Jennifer Dodd

Honey, sweet one, you were already an old lady when I first met you, 15 or so according to the shelter. Whoever dumped you there missed out on the last years of a wonderful, grouchy, "I want what I want when I want it" dog. You were funny and set in your ways and definitely could not be pushed around, even by the other dogs here who outweighed you by at least 30 lbs. You just got tired and the cancer got the best of you. Now you don't have to struggle against it anymore. I'll miss you always and hope wherever you are now you're with Shelley and Ceilidh and that the other dogs and I will be with all three of you again. Thanks for being with me for the last few years.

Becky Dodge

Honey was the best dog a person could ever want. She was always sweet, knew my every mood, and didn't have an aggressive bone in her body. She loved people and all other animals. She has been my best friend and I will miss her terribly.

Honey, you were such an exceptional little girl and can never be replaced in my heart.
You hung in there through so much physical adversity and were always so brave.
I know you're in a better place and are no longer in any pain, but the pain I'm feeling at your loss is almost unbearable.
I just pray that someday we will be together again.

Love,
Mommy

Our much loved baby girl will be in our hearts forever.

Honey was the most gentle, sweetest Golden Retriever 9 1/2 years old.She had been sick for a few weeks and died doing what she loved doing the most- Riding on a Golf Cart. We were taking her on a ride and went about 2 feet and she dropped on the Golf Cart Floor and died. A friend said to us - What a Sweet Way to die.
We have her 6 1/2 year old Puppy that's name is MoJo and he misses her very much.

Honey, I am crying so very hard and my heart truly breaks. I haven't felt this sad in Many, Many years. You were truly the sweetest thing that we have all ever known. You could have been a Nursing Home Dog. You were so gentle. A friend said that Honey was a most appropriate name and if everyone had your sweetness and love - the world would have no problems.

Honey may you be in Peace now and we will see you in Heaven one day.
We Love you, Mama & Daddy

Honey-Bunny, my little bear, you were the best cat I ever had.
Our bug catcher, computer moniter blocker, extra toe'd sweet meow-er.
You were taken from us too soon.
All of us will miss you, including your Baxie Cat.
Bailey always appreciated your efforts in dog-cat relations, and Gracie wishes she had gotten to stare at you longer.
We're glad you chose to love us for the last 6 years and picked us at the shelter (instead of you-know-who).
We'll think of you always...your meow is forever in our hearts.
-Momcat

Honey,

Thank you for sharing our lives for the past 5 1/2 years.
Your sweet and loving ways will never be forgotten.
We will keep your memory forever in our hearts.

Love,
Daddy Roger, Mommy Julie, Mommy Kathy, Sage, Rusty & Sophie

Honey, the sweetest dog
Your life was too hard
Your good times too short
I miss you every day
You are forever in my heart
And still it aches with emptiness
Know you were beloved
Be free from pain and sorrow
You were the best

Geraldine Hraban

You were my life, my love, my everything.
I'll miss you forever.
Thank you for everything you gave me.

Emily

Honey, I'll never forget that day I left for work and you were on my porch. That rag-tag little stray that touched the hearts of everyone she met. She shared her home with many other strays that Daddy and Mom had adopted. She was gentle as a lamb with the tinyest of kittens, but the bravest of lions when she felt her masters were threatened. When I used to pat my heart and look into your eyes, I was saying that you'd always be there and you will baby..always & forever
Kimmie & Robbie

Our beautiful, blonde German shepherd fell aleep in the Lord today.
She didn't suffer--she went to nap and never woke up.
The way she passed was a blessing as I don't think we could have handled a painful or long, drawn out illness. She was walking, and talking, and loving all of us up to the time of her death.
We will miss her gentle, caring nature--her loving nuzzles, her gummy happy smile, the way she watched over all of us, going person to person to let us know she loved us as much as we loved her. We miss you, little girl, and know we'll meet you on the other side.
But the time here will be less happy, less bright without the loving light you provided.
Goodbye, baby, until we meet again.
We'll never forget you.

Christina, Mike, Irene, Ron

Our Honey came into our lives from the day she was born to our Beagle Lady Beatrice or Bea as we called her. She was one of seven pups but the only sand and white coloured pup. For 17 years she shared our lives together always playing and full of life.

Honey did decide to slow things a little as she grew older but the spark of her inner puppy could always find it's way out.

Two years ago we thought that were going to lose her after she suffered a stroke but with her will to live and her need to keep checking the family was alright, she made a nearly full recovery.

Yesterday, the 8th January 2007, Honey collapsed at home and was taken to our vets where she was diagnosed as suffering from internal bleeding from a tumor.Honey passed gently in the arms of her Mum, Sue and in the presence of her Dad Mark.

No more will we hear the soft padding of her paws as she goes from room to room checking on all the members of the family to see if they were home and alright. No more the greetings at the door when we get home from the days work or school or the gentle or not so gentle snoring from her as she sleeps peacefully beside our bed.

Now Honey has gone to join her other family members that have gone before her, Bea, her mum who was with her for ten years and Souki, our 18 y.o. cat who ruled the house but would let Honey do anything to him, even let her carry him round like the puppies she never had. Then they would curl up together and sleep the days away.

We will miss all three of you and will keep you in our hearts forever.

Mark, Sue, Nick, Sean and Daniel

Honey was our first dog as a family.
We got her for Austin when he was 3.
Honey was a great family dog and the best swimmer.
She also loved to eat.
I know most dogs do but Honey really did.
She had the sweetest nature and we will truly miss her.
She was the best dog we ever knew.
Good Bye Honey...

10/02/07 - 26/11/07
With the greatest sadness my little Honey passed away today.
There was no signs of illness or anything untowards that could have indicated that Honey should die so suddenly.
She wheeked for her veggies last night and ate them, like her usual self with great gusto.
I bedded her down with all her piggy friends and locked them all safely away.
This morning when I went to check on them I noticed that Honey was not among the girls who came to greet me at the door, she was no where to be seen.
On entering their little house I began checking all the little hide aways that they have and Honey was lying silently in the largest hide away.
She had a peaceful look upon her face and I wish to think she just lay her head and fell asleep.

Rest in Peace my little one, you were not with us for long but you left your son Itsie with me and he will always keep your memory fresh in my heart.
Off you go, Honey and join the other piggies who have passed before you and who have a special place in my heart.

My lasting thought of you will be seeing you popcorning with Honor your bestest friend.

Good night little one.

Zena

I love and miss her sooooo much.
She was truly my best friend!

Shonna Sullivan

Honey was more of a mother to me then a pet. She helped grow up and helped through really tough times in my life. I would give anything to have her back

Carla Dragon

Honey Brown was a special friend to the Welsh family and she will be dearly missed by family and friends.

We all love you Honey Brown.

Lynne

To my dearest Honey Bun and most loving companion in the world.
I will and do miss you more than life itself and hope that you are happy with Granny and Clyde up in heaven.
I am sorry your little heart gave out and that we needed to have this operation.
You would have never walked so I did what I thought was best for you.
I love and hold you close to my heart.
Your Mother and Caregiver, Victoria

Honey Girl was the sweetest little girl in the world.
When she died, it was the saddest day of our life.
She and her mommie dog were 2 strays that came to our house in 1993.
They brought so much joy and light to our life.
We miss you and Ginger (mommie dog) and pray you are waiting at Rainbow Bridge.

Lillian Beckman

I miss you. Momma and daddy love you. I know I will see you again but right now the pain is very hard to handle. I hope you are happy and running around with all the other doggies. If you are with your other mommie thats ok too. I will always love and miss you.
My heart is full of sadness and grief but it is also full of love for you. kisses baby girl.

Kim Carter

Honeybun was a rare cat-a friend had called me, saying that a declawed cat was in his yard, and needed a good home, so I took her in.
She was comfortable living on my kitchen table, and she was the Empress, one that the other cats in the house obeyed!
She had her own tabletop feeding and water dish-the others could use them-IF she oked it.

I've never seen an animal who had so much love to give, she had a purr like a motorboat, and nothing could faze her, not even a hurricane or a bad thunderstorm.

Sadly, in June last year she was stricken with squamous cell carcinoma, and developed cysts on her left front leg.
She had three operations, and when the oncology vet in my area told me that there was nothing to do, except palliative care, well, she fought the good fight, I gave her medicine every night on fancy feast, she deserved the best, but sadly, I had to let her go on Satur-day, and it hurts.
Despite knowing it was inevitable, and being emotionally and intellectually prepared-it still hurts.
She was the rock of the house.

Interestingly, since she's gone, all the other cats have made a point to spend extra affection on me, even the drama queen.

She will be missed.

Nancy

i've had many dogs in my life, but none of them have measured up to honeydew. we rescued her from living in a barn(where she spent her first year).she loved to cuddle and snuggle and even was friends with our awesome vet. when honeydew was eight we brought another puppy home.that is sadieSue. honey didn't like sadie much at first, but they became good friends after a month or so. Sadie used to go and grab honey by the ear as if to say "come on...it's time for supper" or "ok, were going outside now."
it was the cutest thing. SadieSue is pretty lost without her best friend and sister. honey got critically sick on Saturday and on Sunday we decided we had to end her suffering. she was good to us for 10 years and now it was time for us to give back to her.
we will miss honeydew more than anything. she was loved dearly.

Debbie and Gary

I miss you so much hongo..i loved you since that day i said i didnt..im so sorry

Sierra

was the greatest dog i have every known, not only that he was the smartest dog i have ever known, he is bright , my best friend and my walking buddy. He is greatly missed by my whole family and a great number of my friends.. God Bless you Honkey
P.S. and all you garden lovers you didn't have to worry about Ground hogs if Honk was there either.

Rose M. Dufford

To my best friend in the whole world, you were there for me from the beginning. Always being strong and brave. You protected me when I needed you the most. I remember when your Daddy was gone on a business trip and it was me and you at the house, someone was outside and you barked and growled to wake me up and would not stop until they were gone. Then I was pregnant with Hailey, you were so gentle to climb in my lap never touching my belly until you were comfortable and then you would nudge my stomach to make her move. When Hailey was here you were so protective over her, you did not want anyone around her.As she has grown you got annoyed with her always pulling on you but never once snipped or growled. You were the best pet I ever had. You will always be the first child in our family. You were so young when your life was taken if only we could still have the next 10 yrs for you to watch over us and play. Beau is missing you so much, he was still looking for you this morning and Daddy thinks we might have to put him on a leash now to keep him from looking for you for awhile. We love you so much and we miss you more than you know already. I will miss you being right under me while I cook and in my way all the time. I will miss being able to feed you those little treats you were not supposed to have. I will miss you getting in the bed with me & daddy and almost pushing me off the bed at night, stepping over you when I got up to go to the bathroom five million times a night, and calling your name to move when I want to sit in the recliner. I'm sorry if I ever hurt you in any way. You were my big boy, so go on and play with Buddy now, enjoy yourselves up there and keep those Angels in line for God. Be good boys!!! Momma, Daddy, Hailey, Brent & Beau love you very much!!!

KASIE GILBERT

Hooch, you were my best friend in the whole world. It was as if God knew you were coming home last night, He sent all who you held dear to see you shortly before your final run. I miss you with all my heart.

I hope you and Buddy finally get to meet back up. I know you missed him. Help him take care of MeeMaw for us.

David Gilbert

Buster, we miss you terribly..the house is so quiet...go meet Hooch, Red and Miss Peppy at the bridge and wait for momma.
Love,
Momma and Daddy

Hoochie, I miss you already. I hope that you know how much you were loved!!

Brenda Dibble

Hooch was my best friend, faithful up to the very end. We lost him to lymphoma on May 19, 2007. Godspeed Hooches Pooches.

Danny Howell

We got Hooch when he was only five months old. We grew to love him very much over the years. He was our protector and friend. He loved to swim in the pond or just hang out with us when we were out and about. Being protective of his territory of 10 acres we had to keep him on a long run when we were not out with him. One day in March my husband Jeff came home from a visit in Texas and went right to Hooch and patted him on the head and turned him loose to run. Hooch took off running like he always did. He would make a round and check the woods and the country out and come home a few hours later. That day he never came home. We posted flyers, drove all over looking and calling for him and nothing. We first thought he may have been stolen but really believe if he was he would have found his way home after being here with us for seven years. So we are assuming Hooch has passed on. We miss him very much and will always notice a German Shepherd and think of him . He was a wonderful, brave, companion.

Donna Zabodyn

Hoody, you were very special ever since Julie brought you home in her hood when you were a baby and found you abandoned out in the street.
From the moment I saw you, I fell in love.
You were with me for 15 years and although you are now no longer with us, in our heart and memories, you will never be forgotten and you will be thought of with love eternally.
love mom, julie and dan

My handsome loving cat, Hooper, my friend, my 'talking' cat, I love you. I pray you are in Heaven and I know I will see you again! Wait for me! I love you.

Merry Fay

Hootie was our best friend whose company we enjoyed for 12 years and 11 months exactly. You are missed very much and we look forward to the day we meet again.

Mom and Dad

To the our first dog, who we love a lot and will miss.
You were such a good boy.

Hootie was the most beautiful kitty who thought she was boss of the block - and probably was.
We called her "Queen Hootie" because she was definitely boss of the house.
Just last weekend we were talking about how she didn't know she was "old" and still acted like a kitten - and how we weren't going to be the ones to tell her. Last night she didn't come in when we called her, and this morning we found her body in the neighbor's back yard.
We never loved the idea that she'd started going outside, but she was so happy and loved the outside so much that we couldn't deprive her. We loved her so we let her go and she always came back - until last night when she obviously became the victim of attack by another animal.
We are so glad that we had the chance to give her a happy, long life. She had the best of both worlds:
A nice warm home with loving people and the freedom to enjoy the outdoors.
"May she rest in peace."

Dasie, Roland, Kyle and K.C.

Hootie was the world's biggest buddy and my best friend for 10.5 years. He charmed everyone with his good looks and sweet personality. He was a gentle giant and the love of my life.

Risa Glantz Dankwerth

OUR LITTLE BUDDY, THE MOST LOVING FRIEND A FAMILY EVER HAD.

My little Hope was such a fighter and just didn't have in more left in her.
She was the sweetest most loveable little girl I have EVER seen.
She was the joy of my day for everyday I had her and I miss her more than words could ever express.
She took part of my heart with her so she will always know how much I love her!
I love you and miss you Hopie Mae.
Love, Mommy

Last Thursday I posted about our pug Bella who past away in Feb. At least we had her daughter Hope to ease the pain of Bella's death. Well, about an hour after I wrote that I let the dogs out and Hope never came back. We live in a heavily wooded area and searched for days for her. We have nothing, no closure, I don't know if she is dead or alive. if she is alive, I pray that she is not suffering as it has been 6 days without food. She was my sunshine, my little light. I miss her terrible, my heart is breaking for her. I just don't know what to do without her. ........

Shellie Bueng

Hopie you brought so much joy to everyone who knew you. You showed so much enthusiasm no one realized how sick you were.
You may have been with us only a short time, but your will always have a big place in our hearts! Have fun with Cooper and the tennis balls.

Maueen Clark

Hopps came to us after the loss of our other dog named Randi.
Hopps came from a good home, but the owners were unable to care for him any longer.

When he was brought home, Keith brought him around the back of the house and to the front door where he peered around the corner and looked at me.
At first I was startled by him because he was so much bigger than my other dog, but you could tell how gentle he was.
The first few weeks were rough because he got into everything, tearing newpaper up in little shreds.
After about a week of this Keith had a talk with him and told him he had to quit or he would be in big trouble.
He never did it again.
Hopps was the sweetest, most gentle loving dog I have ever had.
He never bit anyone, hardly barked unless we were playing with him and made him bark.
All he wanted was our love and companionship.
We never had to yell at him and he new his boundries while out in the yard.

Whenever we had company, our family and friends always greeted him first.
Everyone just loved him.
About 3 years ago, Hopps had a lump on his side.
We took him to the vet and they had to remove it.
The results came back that he had an aggressive cancer, which at the time they felt they had removed it all.
However, the chance of it coming back would be just that.
About a year ago, the lump did come back, small, but kept getting larger all the time.
On October 20, 2007, we came home and found that he had gotten sick.
We took him to the vet and with his loving eyes told us it was time.
That was the hardest decision we have had to make.
I got down on the floor and held him while the put him down.
How heartwrenching.
We both cried for 3 days.
We now have his ashes back and feel comforted that he is with us again.
There will never ever be another dog like our Hopps

Dolores & Keith Elliott

We adopted Hornet in the spring of 1998 when he was 4 years old.
He left the racetrack in November of 1997 and was ready for a new home and family.
When loved every minute with our gentle racer and he gave us all of his love.
Hornet made himself at home everywhere that we brought him.
I loved his hugs, anyone that has had a Greyhound knows those hugs!
On Sunday, he broke his leg and had severe nerve damage, which paralyized him.

We made the difficult decision to put him to sleep.
He died peacefully in his daddy's arms and now sleeps on a big pillow in heaven, chewing his favorite rawhide bones, and he has an endless supply of spaghetti noodles.
Rest in peace, sweet boy!

In Memoriam

Horus

“Horus of Thelema”
30 November 1992, Monday – 04 November 2007,Sunday

My Irish Setter Son ...

Horus was our North, our South, our East and West,
Our working week and our Sunday rest,
Our noon, our midnight, our talk, our song.
We hoped that it would last forever.

Horus was the most brilliant and noblest of creatures, canine or otherwise. He walked with a prance like no other, a very proud and independent soul, with a strong will for life. He had many facial expressions, many personalities and a myriad of nicknames, seventy-four to be exact and he knew them all. Horus knew how to have a good time and make everyone else do the same.

Horus was beautifully determined and a cleverly stubborn soul and, as usual, up until the last moment of his life, he got the last word in, happily demanding to do the very thing that he loved the most … going out for his routine morning excursion.

Horus, we know that you are with us, watching us from a beautiful and peaceful place with all your other friends. We know that you are safe, well and happy. We know that you do not want us to be sad; we know that you never liked it when we were sad.

Horus, thank you for bringing us so much happiness and teaching us the true meaning of what unconditional love is about. You completed our lives, as you were our middle pillar and our kindred spirit. You will always be our sunshine.
We will carry your middle pillar, proud legacy, determined spirit and strong will in our hearts and souls forever. You made us so very proud and still do.

Horus touched the lives of his family members, friends, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, hospital staff, acquaintances, and simple strangers, in his own majestic way.

Horus, we will always love and miss you.

Diana Escandon

The biggest best dog ever to befriend a human.
Loving to all his entire time with us.
Stronger then one could believe.
Loyal beyond words.

Bill, Cara, Allison

To my best friend in the whole world, you were my baby before anyone else and I could always count on you no matter what.
Thank you for always waiting for me at the door and always choosing my lap above anyone else's.
Thank you for long walks in the yard, and long naps on the couch.
Thank you for enriching my life in a way that I doubt anyone else ever will.
I love you forever.

Becky, Bill, Andrew & Jaclyn Bondurant

Hot Dog my little baby dog I just received your ashes back.
Mama misses you so much we spent 12 glorious years together after I rescued you from being abused.
You had the best life a doggie could have sooo many people miss you!!
Fiona is doing ok but she misses you too she is an only dog now.
You will always be in my heart baby dog and not a day goes by I don't think about you.
Your pics are all over and I am going to get a nice box so I can keep you close.
When I go you will be with me and meet me at the Rainbow Bridge.
Love you soooo much your mama

Girl, you are loved by so many.
You touched the lives of everyone you met.
I know you were still so young, and I know you were so full of love, God wanted you back with him. I miss your loving eyes and the happy welcome you always gave me when I would come through the door. It hurts to not have you here with us, but I know one day we will be together again, and we will never part.
Your mommy and I love you always.

Marc Daniele

He was my first born, so eager to get out of his egg, he shot out like a hot rod.. hence the name. He was a gentle giant with his brothers and sisters. He fathered many babies and his legacy will live on. He crossed over in my hands last night and will be laid to rest beside his parents.

Warchanter

With Love Your mom Donna, your sister Marina, and your father who brought you home Craig Kydes

Elaine

Daddy misses his little Deener girl a lot - we hope you're keeping everyone looked out for at the Rainbow Bridge.

John and Apryl

Houdini entered our lives as a rescue bird back in September of 2005. I received an email from my mom about a bird they had spotted in their backyard. We went to visit a week or so later, and managed to catch Houdini by rigging a bird cage with a door that raises and lowers vertically. The cage was put in a tree, then we tied a string to the top of the door, then strung it over the tree branch, and brought the string into the house. Mom had put food and water in the cage, and the love bird finally made his way inside. We saw it and let the string go, which made the door drop and capture the bird inside. Let me tell you that this bird was NOT HAPPY he had been trapped!

We carted him back to our home, quarantined him for a month away from the other three birds, and then introduced him to Pete by way of putting their cages next to each other. Pete is another rescue bird that a former coworker of mine caught. Pete and Houdini became friends, chirping back and forth. Because both of these birds were rescues, they were no longer tame and so we didn't get to handle them like we do the other two.

Houdini's first name was Li'l Dude, but after his escape from his cage, we renamed him Houdini, (or 'Dini or 'Dini-weenie) since it was really fitting. One afternoon I had come home from work and was sitting in the bedroom playing with the cockatiel when I heard the frantic fluttering of wings from the living room. At first I didn't think anything of it, as the birds do this from time to time as a form of exercise. I quickly realized that the sound of the fluttering wings was not coming from the right place. I went into the living room to find Houdini perched on the bill of the big blue marlin hanging on the wall. I had to grab the camera first and take some pictures of our escapee before trying to actually catch him. I ended up chasing him back and forth from the picture frame on one wall to the vertical blinds on the opposite wall until he got so tired he couldn't get any lift and ended up running around on the floor. I was able to catch him, then. I put him back in his cage and we added door locks to keep him from a repeat performance. I understood why he was a rescue bird after that incident.

Houdini was a very active little fellow. He loved his Happy Hut - he spent a lot of time cuddled up inside it sleeping, and chewing on the outside when he wasn't inside sleeping. Actually, I think we went through three Happy Huts because he chewed the first two to pieces. Any time we would give him fresh water, he would immediately immerse himself in the water dish and take a bath. He was fearless and full of personality.

Houdini, we will miss you greatly.

Joana

He has saved my life and has suffered greatly.
He has more than earned the peace he has now found.
He will never be forgotten.

Houston was my baby. He was huge with ears that were 25 in long. There will never be another rabbit like him.

I miss you, sweetie.

Deb Hobgood

Our orange tabby cat died today at the age of 15.
He was the sweetest of cats and we will miss him.
He had the best purrs and the loveliest of temperments.
I can't believe he won't be there to greet me ever again.

Dawn

Hubie was a good natured pup and lived with us for over 17 years. His energy was contageous. He loved everyone and was loved by everyone that met him.
His favorite toy was a squeaky ball and would stop instantly if he heard the familiar squeak. In some ways a clown, he brought a lot of smiles to us and to others. Though he was not really qualifed to be a show dog, he participated in training classes with show dogs demonstrating that he could do just as good a job as they could. If there had been a Hubie class, he would have won first place. We will miss him.

Kris Ernst and Cliff Mack

Hubs was a best friend who just happened to be a dog.
We will miss him

Margaret

Huck may have been small, but watch out, he was as big as any dog around, took on life with all he had and never backed down.

Loved his two horses, went down the show road with them for years.

I know that he and Indy are together keeping an eye on Willis and I.

Vicki R Webb

This is for T.W. Huckleberry, Esq. Ltd.

He graced our lives with his energy, optimism, hopefulness, and unconditional love.
Huck, because of you, we still make every day a "Puppy-licious" day!

Good Job, Huckleberry!

John & Betty

Words cannot express how much I loved my Hudson.
The pain of not having his big furry body to touch and to hold feels unbearable right now but I know my big yellow boy will always be with me through the rest of my days...until we meet again.
He is now free of any pain or discomfort caused by the cancer and his 13 year old body.
He lived a full and loved life as my best friend and companion through many stages of my life.
He was my constant partner and I will always love him, think of him, miss him, and thank him for all the blessings and joy he gave to me.
I have so many wonderful memories to carry with me and help me through my sadness of letting you go and missing you. I love you Hudson and you will always be my big boy.
Forever and ever, Mommy

My cat Huey was perfect to me, I loved her so much with her big green eyes & cheeky meows.
She was such a great character & support to have in my life in her short time, especially helping me through the pain of the passing of my GrandFather only 4 weeks ago. She made me so happy. I never imagined she'd be gone so soon!
R.I.P my Angel Huey I will miss you
forever & ever

Melissa Zandbergs

Our Huey left us one snowy day -- far too young to have gone away.
His mom and day, brothers and sister grieve Huey's loss.
Our precious little triplet -- the smallest of the trio, Huey, Dewey & Louie -- who like his 7 siblings brought never ending joy and knowledge to his mom's kindergarten classroom by helping the kids learn to read. Little did the children know when they petted and kissed Huey that Feb. 7, it would be the last theyh would see of him. But they still talk of him and many have drawn tributes for him. Huey, until we meet again at the Bridge, we will keep you in our hearts and prayers.

Huggy Bear,my beloved diabetic friend,was caregiver to for almost 10 years..How,when going somewhere,he would wrap his paws around my neck to hang on and with his one floppy ear and pudgy face,was always attracting the girls.His best little friend,Mr.Mojo,passed on January 5th 2007..I always thought Huggy Bear would go first and told Mojo I would be there for him in love,but life sometimes just doesn't turn out as we think..Oh Huggy Bear,I love and miss the way you were and always will remember you and together,with your best little friend,Mr.Mojo

Hugh was one of those cats who always was a kitten at heart. Always playful and adventurous - he loved being outside. His favorite thing to do was to spend time in our big back yard chasing birds and exploring.

He was going to turn three in June 2007. We never thought we would lose him so soon.

This afternoon there was a knock at the door. A young boy told me that there was a cat that had been hit by a car and was laying in the street. I pulled on my coat and boots. Sure enough, it was him.

I am so thankful that he passed right away, so he never had to suffer but very sad that we never had a chance to say goodbye. I carried him in the house in a blanket and our dog Parker sat by and licked his face. She didn't seem to understand why her buddy wasn't moving.

Hugh will be missed terribly. I feel badly that we ever let him outside, because he would have been safer in our house - but he never would have been happy inside. He wanted to be free and feel the breeze in his fur.

We love you. Life will never be the same without you. I hope you have mountains of Fancy Feast in heaven, and lots of outside to explore. You'll always be our little white tiger.

Hugs, kisses and rubs,
Jon Duffy & Renee Mitchell

Hugo was a true hero! As a puppy he contracted tetanus from a small razor cut from grooming. He almost died but because of good veternaery care he survived and gave us many years of joy! In Feb 06 he contracted Cushing Disease and Diabetes. Because of the Diabetes he became totally blind. It didnt seem to bother him at all and he still was a gentle and loving friend. Recently he began to have small seizures and because we are making a move back up North the vet said it would be too hard on him. Tues 10/02 we put him to sleep reluctenly . We stayed with him the whole time and I feel such pain of grief and loss. My husband and I will never forget Hugo and how he impacted and enriched our lives. Marylynne Helgerson

Hugo was a wonderful companion and our best friend.
He is so greatly missed. He knew he was loved and still is.

Paul and Mary Charles Moses

I'll miss you my son.

Bye, little cat with black nose. I'm glad you're in peace now. I did all I could and knew althoug I'd like have done some things other way. Please forgive me if I didn't help you to pass yesterday or the day before.
Thanks for all, it is as if you have planned to do it this way, taking care for us all.
I love you so much.
Rest in peace, dear Hugo.

Hugs was a great dog.
We bought her when she was 4 years old & she was in our lives for 8 wonderful years. Hugs loved food, the only food Hugs would not eat is mushrooms.
We would feed her frozen broccoli with her dinner.
Hugs was definitely a people dog, we would take her to the dog park & we would have to go to opposite ends of the park or she would jut stand by us.
We will miss Hugs.

Our lives were changed drastically on thurs morning when our Hula- girl was killed in a accident. We continue to talk to her, knowing her spirit is here with us.
Our lives are not the same and we are in DEEP grief, trying to move forward, but missing her sooooo much.
We love you Hula-Girl and are thinking of you and missing you every minute of every day. We can NOT wait until we are all together again at the Rainbow Bridge!!

Pas & Cheryl Pascual

My sweet old girl - I miss you terribly. You held me together when Daddy died, you cried under his bed as he crossed his own Rainbow Bridge, and I know you are with him now, he was waiting for you. That last day, you were so sick,and I knew it was time for you to leave me. The doctor was so kind, gently helping you on your way. Chris wrapped you in your pink blanket, with just your ears peeking up, just like you did on the couch at home. That is how I will remember you. Until we meet again, and we are all together once more, love from Mommy.

My hero was the most loving boy!
I adopted him when he was 5 years old.
He came to me when I was sick in bed, for many years suffering.
He nurtured me and gave me the strength to live, gave me reason to live!
He loved me, cared for me, kept me going when I didn't know how.
He knew when I was having a bad day, and took extra care to be with me all day.
On good days he loved to be the boss, and ordered me around in his bossy voice "ouuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttt!"
He never once abandoned me!
For twelve years he was everything I could ever ask in a friend.
He tried to stay with me, despite the pain he was in, he needed to be sure I understood how much he knew I needed him, he needed mommy to understand he wasn't leaving by choice.
How can I ever thank this awesome boy of mine for being what he was to me?
Hummer you are and forever will be my Hero!
I love you and miss you with all my heart!
Your Mom and best friend.

We miss you Humphrey! Even when you were biting we knew you loved us as much as we loved you. Thank you for making us happy.

Phil, Julie, and SPG

Humphrey, abandoned and lost on the street, found his way into the hearts of all he met.
Visiting hospitals, senior centers and children, he brought unconditional love to all he encountered.
Humphrey was the sunshine of my life and lives on in my heart.
"Look what Mary has Humphrey!"
"Give kisses Humphrey!"

Sister Mary Ann Ambrose

Live your life to the fullest Humpy boy--we'll meet you in heaven someday.

Hunni you are sorely missed by your family and other family pets

Jen

I know you were in pain at the end, that's why I had to let you go. I feel so guilty but I loved you too much to let you go on suffering.

You were always a loving and mischievous little bunny.
Whether it was begging at the dinner table, trying to steal chocolate or stamping your feet in the middle of the night to wake me because you wanted a cuddle. You always liked to be the centre of attention and that made you the best bunny a mummy could hope for.

We all miss you sweetheart.

With love,

Mummy

My precious little girl who was in so much pain
but was a loving bunny all the way to the end.
I miss you sweetheart xxx.

Sherryann

Dear Hunter I don't know what to say I lost you 4 days ago and I still can't believe your gone.
I constantly look for you in everything I see. You were so special to me and my life will never be the same.
I hope you are safe wherever you are and I wish I could be with you. I hope you can somehow understand why I had to do what I did to ease your pain.
I always tried to do what was best for you.
Words can not explain how much I miss you and how much I loved you.
Rest in Peace
if there is an afterlife please know that as soon as I get there I will come find you.
I Love You Baby Boy.
Chris

We miss you, Hunter. You were our wonderful, gentle, angelic friend. You were loving and you were loved.

Nina and George Castle

Hunter was our life and our love.
He had cancer yet never complained.
We kept waiting and watching for some sign of pain, knowing that we would have to put him down then.
But he held it all in.
The most he did was groan now and then.
He must have known that all the family, those that loved him most, would be at our house for Thanksgiving.
He waited until everyone had stroked him and loved him, and then just stopped breathing.
All our hearts are broken.

John & Donna Heller

Still miss her

Some things just can't be helped. As Rottweilers age they may experience serious hip problems. For the past few years, Hunter and I have been battling his debilitating disease. On Sunday, July 15, Hunter was unable to move his back legs as they would no longer support his weight. His spirit was a different thing! He still wanted to play with his big red ball, but he just did not have the strength.

To strangers, Hunter was a real "dog". He looked "fierce" and if he thought that his "Mommy" was in trouble, he was ready to defend.

To close family and friends, Hunter was just a big baby. At ninety pounds, he thought it was perfectly acceptable for him to place his paws on your lap and if you stayed still, he would try to sit on your lap. He was a gentle and even tempered dog. Many friends thought he was a puppy, because he stayed puppy like until the end.

On July 16, I had to let him go. We had tried all treatment available to extend his life. He was in a great of pain and at thirteen years (young) surgery would have been dangerous. Intellectually I knew that it was time, yet emotionally I was not prepared. A good friend accompanied me to say my last good-bye.

I told Hunter to go find Ife (passed on in July 2005)...They should have a great time when they reunite

I have lived around Animals all my life and when I left for college I was, for the first time in the life, animal-less. I went a whole year without having a pet and was extrememly lonely. In September of 2005 my boyfriend announced that for our anniversary he was getting my a puppy. I was ecstatic! I had a female Cocker as a child and loved her to death and knew instantly that was what I wanted.. We began looking at litter after litter of puppies and none of them seemed right. We had one last house to go to, but I was pretty discouraged.

We walk into the living room and here is this little black and white wrinkly puppy with brown freckles on his nose. The moment I saw him, I knew he was the one. He spend our visit chewing on my shoelaces and then falling asleep in my arms. We took him home that day.
From that squirmy little puppy grew a handsome, joyful partner in crime. We would do everything together..we even shared the same pillow and love for french fries! I couldn't have asked for a better companion.

It was hard to come home and see him lying in the sun, as if he just fell asleep and decided his dream was too good to leave. We aren't sure what happened, but we just hope he's in a better place and that he'll be okay until I have the chance to join him.

Kacie Colston

Hunter you were very special to us and we love you and miss you.
I know your time here with us was short but you taught us so very much. I will think of you often and await the day when we will see each other again.

Laura Barnes-Szabadkay

For Hunter:

It was hard to see you not being able to run,play and swim like you did in your younger years. We hope that in your passing you have found relief and can run and play in the green meadows of the rainbow bridge garden. We miss you and will never forget you and will see you again one day.
Love, Dad, Mom,Kevin and Maxx

Hunter was our son and brother. We will miss our faithful friend and he will ,forever, be in our hearts.

Susan, Bob, Geoffrey and Tyler

Hunter, I'm so sorry that I didn't realize you were in pain for so long. You hid it well & I know you would have gone on in pain if I'd have let you.
It tore me up to have to put you down but I knew that you'd be better off & out of pain.
Not a second goes by that I don't miss you.
I'll never forget the very first time I saw you when I picked you out.
The rotten little runt of the liter that was my very best friend for 7 1/2 years.
I'll remember all the times you were there for me & all the fun we had.
I said I loved you to death & I did.
I love you Bubby and always will.
Watch over me & lick my tears away & give me lots of kisses.
Mommy misses you & loves you very much.

Hunter, you Were Such a Trooper these last two years, even with your blindness!
You did your best to fit in with your siblings and hung in there like no other dog would.
You will be sorely missed!

Ali Pappagianis/Linda Fisher

In living Memory My Sweet Boy.

I will never look at another ocean or lake where I will not think of my buddies.
They loved to swim so much that you could see it in their eyes.

Thank you Hunter and Marley for all those days I came home from work hating the world only to have you both wagging your tails and slobering with glee that I was finally home to play.
No matter what happens in life, dogs will love you unconditionally.
I will meet you both under The Rainbow Bridge

Jennifer Tillberg

Hunter,
The last two years has not eased the pain from the hole in my heart.
You were my first and most special furry child.
I fell in love with you from the time I brought you home as a tiny fur-ball until the time I comforted you and spoke to you for the last time as your little soul departed.
I wanted to go with you because I could not make it without you, but I had to take care of Rhubarb.
Until we meet at the Rainbow Bridge, I will always love you and think of you, because you are my heart and soul.
Love Mom (Lisa) and Grandma (Muir)

Just letting you know that we, especially me, have not forgot about you Hunter Man! You will always be a special part of my life and will always hold a huge piece of my heart. I miss you each and everyday..thankyou for sending me Noah Jacob to help ease the pain of losing you. He's wonderful but there is only one YOU!
I love you and miss you...
Mom (Shelly)and dad (Wayne)

Hunter, we miss you, Hoover and I.
He looks for you when he goes outside.
He goes to his place to eat, waiting for you to come.
You were such a dog.
I still remember that young puppy I brought home with me, solid black, running through the yard like a missile.
I so enjoyed learning your language, all the things you told me of your needs of the day and how to love.
I'll never forget the young black shepherd at the vets that some careless owner had abandoned for over three months.
You and I connected from the moment I saw you.
I'm so glad we had these past nearly 11 years together.
It broke my heart to put you down, and I kept hoping you'd recover as I watched you deteriorate.
I will always see you resting on the backporch or waiting for me at the frontdoor when I come home.
You are there now with Michelle, the sheltie, who preceded you Novemeber 1, 2007 on All Saint's Day.
And Hoover, the wheaten terrier, will no doubt enjoy being the only dog, and I'm sure in time I'll get use to having only one dog.
But you will be my only Hunter, the one who truly taught me dog languange, the one who stood at the window of the piano room when I practiced or or gave lessons to students, the one who sang when I hit high notes, the one who cuddled in my bed like a lap dog until you could no longer jump that far.
You are the one who inspired all my students to get their own dogs, even if they didn't continue with piano.
No, I haven't really lost you.
I have gained a wealth of memories and life lessons forever.

Rozanne Stark

Hunter,
While you were only ours for 16 months we loved you and did everything we could to restore your health. Your back legs became weak and this progressed daily until you finally could no longer walk down the stairs without my assistance.
You came to us from a family who could no longer care for you. We had just lost Pamina a female greyhound (8 years old) when you joined Lorraine, Boris (your adopted brother) and I. Please remember to find Pamina at the bridge, tell her not a day goes by that we don't think about her, and of course not a day will go by that we don't think of you. Run and play all you can with the other dogs and cats, say hi to TJ-cat and Bubbles cat if you see them. I just wish we knew you for longer.
Rest in Peace my velcro dog.
Dad (Arthur) and Mon (Lorraine)

To our wonderful hutchy - we still miss you every day.
we will see you again on the rainbow bridge.
love mom and dad

My best friend,I will never forget you....

Doug
