My baby dog Lacey passed away on 11/16/07 She was my best friend and I loved her so much. She came into my life when I got breast cancer and left 7 years later now that I am recovered.
She chose me with a hug and a kiss and I let her go with a hug and kiss. She will be forever missed.

Lisa Rigstad

We love our Lacey girl like she was our daughter!
I still can't believe she is gone.
I hope to meet up with here someday at the Rainbow Bridge!
This is to my "Poon Dog" I Love you Lacey!!

Judy

Lacey,we will miss you so much. Our hearts are broken. You were so young and then you got sick.
We will always remember you when you sat there and watched TV with us and barked at all livng things. How you would always stay in your yard without any fencing. As we entered the house you would always greet us at the door with a toy hanging out of your mouth. There are so many things I could write about you. You were one terrific dog and the whole family loved you so much. Again you will be missed and you will be in our hearts forever.

Elizabeth Scargle

My dear sweet Lacey,
you were my everything i got you when I turned 16 and your were my baby until i was 30.
I miss the way you would lay on me and sleep every night,
I miss that so.
You were the other part to me, I never pictured my life without you, or ever having to say goodbye.
There are days when I still whistle for you, silly I know, but I know that you can still hear me at the rainbow bridge.
I love you Lacey and mommy misses you soo much.
I will meet you again someday at the rainbow bridge and we can be together, be nice to your sister Penelope up there... Love you always and forever.... Mommy

Lacey came at a time when I had just lost my first cocker spaniel.
She was a miracle.
I rescued her from the shelter and she was just what I wanted: a black cocker spaniel.
She had been adopted on the day I lost my dog and returned on the day I was looking for her.
She wasn't even in the computer system yet and no one knew why she had been returned.
I had Lacey over 8 years.
In that time, she became double blind with glacuoma, developed arthritis in both back legs, lost most of her teeth, had several ear infections (cockers do), and had more tumors come and go than I can remember.
At the end she was coughing and not eating well so when the time came to make the "final" decision, she decided for me and went peacefully on her own.
The doctor had told me 5 months ago that she shouldn't even be alive--she was past a cocker's "prime" but that I had taken such good care of her she didn't want to leave.
I will never forget my special girl.
I hope she's happy and pain free on the Rainbrow Bridge.

Crisanda

We miss our baby girl. You were a loving companion to our home. Your Dad misses you greatly and wishes he was emotionally able to bring you to the pond and sit with you to watch the ducks
before the angels took you away to Rainbow bridge . Mommy and Daddy just want you to know how much we love you and what you ment to us.

Rick & Mona

To my baby Lacey,
I love you with all my heart and will do so until the day I die, and on that day we can finally be together again.
I hope you know how much I love you and would give anything to have you back.
I hope you're enjoying playtime with all your friends now.
No one will ever take your place in my heart.
You're my #1 girl.
I love you my sweetheart.

Shannon Christie

Our beloved Lacey girl passed away a week ago.
Having her for just over 7 years brought our family joy and companionship which will be missed more than words can describe.
The unconditional love she gave each and everyone of us will be a part of our lives until we meet up with her again.
Always curious, always full of love you could se eher funny personality with a simple tilt of her head when inquisitive, or fetching her fuzzy bone or rubber newspaper to play catch for HOURS on end..LOL.. At 80 lbs she would squeeze into the smallest of spaces on our bed just to be close to us at night or in the morning and try to hide her head under the covers as if we couldn't see her.
The memories are precious, the love was great, and we will never forget our Lacey Girl.

Love Mindy, Mark, Dani, Courtney & Iris

You gave us 15 great years. I always felt you still had a lot of life left in you. I love and miss you.

Stacey, Victor, Victor, Alexis and Amanda

We love you and miss you sweet girl!

Kim and Rob England

We've lost our best friend.
She lived a long, happy, healthy and loved-filled life.
We pray she is at peace now and she will forever be in our hearts.
Our lives will never be the same without her.

Dave, Sue, Logan & Rachel Warner

missing you more and more each day.will always love you.till we meet again,xxmummy

our lacey bug, when the time comes meet your mommy and daddy at the rainbow bridge. we love and miss you

John & Patricia Jenkins

Thank you Our dog, Lacey, was the bravest dog in the world.
When she was younger, she didn't realize that she was little and she would chase after every other dog she would see, no matter how big they were. She also would chase after the man who read our electric meter and after the mailman.
She would fly across our yard, as fast as her little legs would run, barking her heart out and with her little tail stuck straight up in the wind.
The mailman would drop his bag in front of her and I would run out and pick her up.
"She's only 7 pounds," I would tell the terrified mailman, but he didn't seem to believe me.
Once when I was walking her in the park, she ran towards an Akia dog who must have outweighed her by 100 pounds, but she ran right up to him at the end of her leash barking wildly.
The owner was amazed and asked me why she wasn't afraid.
I told her because she was very brave and thought she was protecting me.
I said her bravery came from her heart, not her size.
Lacey was a wonderful traveler.
I took her everywhere I went and she loved riding in the car.
When I would check into a hotel, I would just put her in one of my carry bags and carry her into my room.
She was so little and paper trained so I would share my dinner with her and put paper down in the bathroom.
She never barked!
When I use to dogsit for my sister and her two very large dogs, Lacey would fit right in with them.
She would completely ignore them unless they got close to her food and then she would growl for them to get away and they would.
She was definitely the boss with whatever dog she was around.

About 4 years ago, Lacey had to have most of her teeth pulled.
They were all infected and they were afraid the infection would spread.
When she came home, they told me not to let her eat for about 12 hours but Lacey had other ideas.
All around the house, she had hidden dog bisquits.
She kept dragging them out and trying to eat them and I would take them away from her.
She never got mad at me, she would just find another one in a hiding place and drag it out in front of me. After about the fourth one, I let her have it.
I figure if she had gone to that much trouble, she deserved at least one bisquit. She never seemed to miss her teeth.
She still managed to eat everything that she wanted.
Of course, for the rest of her life, her little tongue hung out of the side of her mouth.
It was so cute!!!!!
She was a wonderful and loyal companion.
Whenever I or my daughter would come home from work or school and we talked to her, she would always give us all her attention as if she really understood every word we said.
She loved outdoors.
She loved the trees and the flowers and the beautiful sunlight.
After she became ill with Cushing's disease, about a year ago, it became difficult for her to walk, so it was difficult for her to go outside.
I know she missed it and I would have carried her but this winter was pretty cold and icy.
I had planned to carry her out this spring when it turned warm, but now it is too late.

I feel very lucky to have had my dog, Lacey, in my life for all these years.
Before she came into my life, I never really liked dogs.
My daughter brought her into our lives and then my daughter left on a 3 week camping trip and left me to take care of her dog.
It only took 3 weeks for me to fall in love with a tiny little Chihuahua. I will carry her sweet little face and love with me the rest of my life.
I hope she waits for me on Rainbow Bridge.

Sandy and Lindsy Sims

To a wonderful three legged black lab who was so carefree. We didn't have you for very long but you will never be forgotten in our hearts. Mommy & Daddy will love you always. We miss you very much. Your sisters all miss you too. The house is not the same without you. You were the sunshine of our life. There was never a dull moment with you. I know you are in heaven with all our friends looking out for us. You were one of a kind and nothing can replace you. We love you Lacey.

Thomas & Jean Whittemire

You were more than a pet, you were family.
You will always be in my heart.

Sylvia Lucas

Lacey, you waited lovingly and patiently for my last embrace.
i know it wasn't the same after
poodle and Polly just crossed over.
you will join them by now.
i loved you so much, you brought me joy with Bolero and
Trifari, and you were like
unbreakable...Precious! Blondie.

Mommy loves you.

Love and Miss you Lacey

Missy Schneider

She was a faithful friend and companion who has now joined her sister Santana (died July 20, 2007).
Both our girls will be missed terribly.
We love you.

Ted, Jessica, TJ, John Michael, and Lucky Thasitis

LACIE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, THE DAUGHTER I NEVER HAD, THE COMPANION OF A LIFETIME. I HAD THIS ANGEL IN MY LIFE FOR 20 YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH GOOD TIMES AND BAD TOGETHER AND WE ALWAYS CAME UP SMELLING LIKE ROSES! THE HARDEST THING THAT I HAVE EVER HAD TO DO IS BURY HER IN THE BACK YARD NEXT TO HER SISTER PRINCESS.
I WILL LOVE HER ALWAYS AND FOREVER AND LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HER AGAIN ONE DAY! I LOVE YOU LACIE AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO GO ON WITHOUT YOU!
I WISH YOU COULD LIVE FOREVER! YOU WILL BE IN MY HEART FOREVER!
LOVE DADDY!

May you be met by your lil sis Princess who has been waiting for you. Give kisses to Blue and Buck who are standing by her side.
We will all be there to get you one day!

Casey O'Neill

Lacie, I miss you dearly already.
You were not only my companion, but my best friend as well.
I know you're in a much better place and no longer in pain.
But, there's still the emptiness of not having you with your big brown eyes following me around and lying with me while I sleep.

I love you so much and I look forward to the day we meet again.
I'm sorry you were taken from me so soon.
I'll love you forever and always.

Joshua Whitt

Our little sunshine, who gave us her love, her companionship and her heart. We love you and miss you. Forever in our hearts.

Charlene Probst

Bye, Lacygirl.. we are going to miss you so much!
You have given us 11 years of fun and dedication and we can never forget you!
I remember when you chased the squirrel up the tree.
For months, every day, you sat at the base of the tree staring up, waiting for him to come back and give you a chance to catch him.
He never did.
Times like that make me smile, just as you made me smile everyday. Have fun playing with Vic.
We'll be together soon!
I love you!

Patti Flynn

She was my girl.

Robin Huey

Lacy left us too early in her life but was a great joy while she was here we will miss you very much

Kevin and Lisa Garner

Lacy, my little princess, I miss you very much. You are so sweet and affectionate and it's been really strange not having you in my arms. I can't stand the emptiness I feel now that you're not there to cuddle with. We did everything we could to keep you around and you were such a strong little girl. I know if it weren't for your kidney failure, you would've been around until you were at least 17 and I wish that was the way things could've went. I love you, baby girl Lacy and I know I won't stop crying until we meet again.

Amanda K

Lacy,

I feel so empty and lonely without you!!!
You were my best friend.
I miss you sleeping with me and sitting in my lap when I am watching TV.
You died such a violent death and I am having so much trouble getting over that.
I know you are ok now and I will see you again.
The boys miss you very much and so does your daddy.
You will be miss and loved so much!!! I will always love you my sweet little angel!!!!

Your Mom, Karen

Laddie was my best firend for ten and one-half years.
He was my first concern always.
He made me feel whole when my life was falling apart.
God gave him to me to bring me back to life.
I miss him so terribly and see him every where I look because he was such a big part of my life.
I hope someday in Heaven to be reunited in some way with him. I know someday all this pain will turn to wonderful rememberances but right now it just brings tears.

Roberta Turner

Laddie, you came to us hurt and scared, but grew to have faith and trust in what a phenomanal boy you were. You were so sweet with your little boy and girls. We will never forget what a gentleman you were. Your tail is wagging and you are running with four strong legs now. We love you and will see you again someday.

Rebekka Garcia

I miss you!!!!:(I love you!!!!

Cwillmschen

To my little Laddie Toots. YOu filled my heart with so much love and happiness I could not ask for a better dog. You were a lover and not a fighter,,,,my little casanova. I will love you forever and never a day at the beach will be the same. Rock on Laddie TOots.

Michael Delossantos

My Laddie Lou, My Little girl. Much too young
to get so sick. There will always be a place in my heart that belongs to you as you were my only daughter and a large part of my life. My home and my heart are empty without you.
Someday we will be together again, with no pain, no seizures and no tears.
I love you little girl.

Missed forever,
Mommy

LADY WAS A BEAUTIFUL FERRAL MOTHER CAT OF 4.

Lucille Colon

I MISS YOU BABY GIRL BUT KNOW YOU ARE PAIN FREE AND ARE HAPPY PLAYING WITH ALL YOUR NEW FRIEDS

Sandy Garman

Lady and Tessa were amazing dogs, we rescued them years ago, Tessa became paralyzed and all the vets wanted to put her down, we had her another 10 years. I learned alternative medicine and acupuncture and they taught me about love. We loved you both so much, you are so missed by your little brother and kitties too. I know you are in Heaven waiting for us and playing and happy. Thank you for all the joy you gave us for over 20 years. Being big dogs, all the vets were shocked at how old they were. No vaccinations, homeopathics only and they lived to be old girls and we miss them and will always love you babies. Mama and Daddy.

Today is 10/9/07.
Tomorrow (10/10/07) would have been your 12th Birthday.
I think of that and it makes me cry.
I wish that you were with me now.
I will never forget what a great friend & dog you were to me.
I still feel the emptiness of your not being there.

There will never be another you.
Even when other dogs, friends, etc. come along.
There was definatley something special about Lucky Lady Lightning!
Life has had some many ups and downs since you left us.
I am not the only one that has said this.
You were truly our lucky girl.
Life changed too much without you.

One day my old frIend, I will see you again.
But for now, I must accept that you are no longer with us physically anyway, but you are ALWAYS IN MY Heart.
I miss you terribly.
Grace

we called her Gentle lady
cause thats who she was
my best friend for 10 yeras
Oh how i Miss my Lady

Sue

Love you always my Ladybun. We will be together again someday. Hope you are with your Dad Scamp and your brothers and sisters. Tell them I love them all.
R.I.P my Darling.
XXXXXXXXXXXX

Corinne Edwards

Lady, You were the love of my life, the apple of my eye. Your exquisite beauty alone made me burst with pride. You were one of a kind Lady, loyal, gentle, so warmly affectionate... but only to me!!
You were the determined leader of our little 3 pack and never gave that up till your last year when Chelsea the youngest was too fast for you. When you left us there was an unbelievable void in the house. I had become so tuned into even your breathing, lying there beside me for 13 years. I guess I was so aware of your every move that when you weren't there it was so sadly apparent.
You, my sweet Lady will always be my "special one". There will never be another that could fill the place in my heart that only you held. Words cannot express how much you were loved but I do believe that one day soon we will meet again and you will once again be with me in the mansions of heaven with all the companions we both once knew.Enjoy your time with Zak and Jet and Pal and grandma.....I will see you all soon....Love MAMA

It's been 5 years since Lady has been gone but I still miss her terribly. No one can take her place.

Judy Berrios

I rescued my baby in 2002. She was approximately 8 yrs old, and was returned to pound by more than one owner.
So her and I connected in the way that we felt nobody really wanted us.. or truly loved us.
We loved each other and I know this because on her last day of being with me she came to me and waited for me.. she knew I would be here for her and she be there for me.. she always was there for me.. I will always remember her and hope that she will come back to me in another form such as another dog so I can father him or her the same way.. Lady if your listening " I RUV RU"

Jeremy Monroe

We were the best of friends for 21 years and we thank you for having blessed our home with your dignity and grace for so long.
You are at peace my friend, but for us dear Lady, well, we can only hope for peace to come in time.
Nothing is the same in our world since you left us.
We love and miss you very much.
Joan, Tony, Kahlua, Sheeba, Maggie, Tino and OT

You were a real little darling. Very beautiful with your long, soft, grey hair. I was so sorry to hear of your passing. You are missed. xoxo

Jason

Your gentle beauty still moves me to tears. You were so very much my soul dog. A first champion for the kennel and your daughter to carry on after you. I see your spirit everyday in your grandkids.
You are missed but never far from our hearts.
Run Free my Lady and bring the wings of love back often to my heart.

Pat Boggs

Lady was my childhood dog and I miss her very much. The whole family misses you. We think about you and talk about you all the time. Sometimes it feels like you'll pop right out of the corner and say "here I am"..i believe the bond we had while you were here still exists and I will always wonder if you are the one who sends us flowers. We love you and will see you soon.

Tara

Lady--
You were my special girl, my best friend. I remeber the day they told me you would be taken from me. It was the hardest week of my life. You were such a good girl, always there when we needed a hug. It's been 4 years, and I still miss you so much. I drove past Harmony Lane the other day, past the tree where I know you are buried with you favorite blanket and princess tiara. I was unable to hold back the tears, unable to tell anyone why. I know you were sick, and it was time for you to go, but I still miss you everyday, still remember you as a puppy, our Princess. I love you, and I'll see you on the Bridge.
Love, Jess

Lady,
When mommy rescued you from the shelter in Aril of 1993, I fell in love with you. You were so happy to get out of the shelter. I will never forget, you jumped up in the seat of the truck and acted like you knew me forever. You were my traveling companion and bed buddy, I will never forget you. I hope you, Harry and Jazzy are together now. Harry left us suddenly in Dec 06, and Jazzy in April 07. Our home is empty now. Take good care of Harry and Jazzy. I love you.

Mom Gayle and Dad Carl

I lost my "little Lady" last night after she was hit by a car right in front of me. The guilt and pain I feel right now is something I've never felt before and hope to never feel again. I can only hope and pray that she is in "Doggie Heaven" running around like crazy and licking everything in sight. Gone with her is a peice of my heart. In loving memory of my 2nd "child"....

Melanie

Our precious Lady developed acute kidney problems and passed away one week after being diagnosed. This was one of the worst heart aches I had ever dealt with. There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of her. My heart still aches for her. Friends told me the only way to deal with a loss like this was to get another one. My wife and I finally got a White Sable Sheltie in May of 2006 and a Blue Merle in September 2006. We also got another White Sable Female February 2007. Our first White Sable won his Championship in UKC at one year of age. Through my Lady I have learned to Love three more beautiful babies. Thank you Lady my sweat. Daddy Loves You.

Royce Roper

Just two and a half years together but, you gave me so much love and now my heart is broken.

Sleep tight,be good and see you tomorrow.

Michael Pratt

Lady I will miss you alot! I love you and I will remmber you forever and love you forever!

Angela

I will truely miss you-You taught me alot about loving animals and just stopping to smell and eat the flowers.

Jenni

This is in honor of our little Lady.
She was pure joy to us for 11 and 1/2 years.

The thing is she had this incredible gift of loving everyone and had more personality than some people do.....

She was a pet, friend, companion, guardian,
and little love bug............hence her name
Lady Bug.................

I will miss you terriablely but I know your only a memorie away and I will see you again............

mary

My dear sweet Lady dog.
Oh how I miss you always home and waiting for me.
You were such a sweet and happy dog and loved everyone that came to visit.
In the last years of your life you went with me on trips and always enjoyed taking a ride in the car.
You gave me great comfort at all times. My heart aches for you and you will be in my heart and thoughts forever until we see each other at Rainbow Bridge.
15 wonderful years with many family members.

Susan

Lady

Lady was a wonderful girl.
She gave us such joy and we are missing her so much.
She was taken too quickly. The Vets and we tried so hard to make her well and to bring her home.

Until we see her again. Love.

Pat & John Tubbs

We lost you today and now there is an emptiness in our hearts and in our home.
You were our best friend and we will never forget you.
We knew you were getting older but never expected you to leave so soon.
If we have any solace it's that you went quickly with no suffering.
We will see you at Rainbow Bridge Lady, where we know you'll be waiting.

George & Judy

Lady was part of our family and stayed with us for sixteen wonderful years. We adopted her when she was two years old. She was 18 years old when she died. She grew up right along side our two oldest children. We all miss her so much. Her best buddy, Buffy, our 11 y.o. dachshund mix dog misses her terribly. We love Lady and know she is happy running and jumping once again. We take comfort in the fact that we will see her again some day.

Mary, Dave, Jamie, Kyle, DJ & Buffy Helmick

Lady, we will miss you so much! Your excitement over Greenies and even a bowl of water was contagious.
I'll miss seeing your 'smiling' face when I come home and seeing how excited you get when we enter the house. I'll miss giving you tummy rubs and petting your extra-soft ears.
I'll miss seeing you and Daddy snuggling together. I'll miss the feeling of having our whole family together. We'll see you at the bridge, Ladybug!

Laurie and Sean Garner

You came into our lives when I needed a bright spot to lift me up. I will always remember finding you standing at the back gate. You were so sick, skinny, and I fell in love with you immediately. We did our best to show you that humans were not all cruel. You accepted us and learned to trust us and gave back more than we could ever give. You changed our life by loving us unconditionally. You never complained. We miss you and know that you are in a better place free of pain. I miss you my sweet "Ladybug."

Linda Sutherland

Your passing has left an empty space in my heart..

Melva Jensen

My darling Lady was my best friend and I am heartbroken without having her with me. My love for her will be with me until the day I die.
She was the most devoted happy dog.
Lady wherever you are I love you baby girl.
Lots of love
Your Sarah

Such a good girl, you were a very special part of our family - we will miss you!!!

The Lennons

I miss you and cannot wait until we can cross the Rainbow Bridge together my sweet Lady. Until then may God Bless You and keep you in his arms. When I arrive at the Rainbow Bridge I
hope we can then meet and cross together. Spending an eternity together full of belly rubs, hugs and kisses.

Love Hugs and Kisses

Until we meet again

Dad

In November I lost another beloved pet and thought it would be Lady first at that time I just wanted her to make special milestones like Christmas, her 15th birthday and then 15 years with us well she did all that and much more but the whole in my heart seems like it will never be filled again. To others she was the mean dog but to us she showed nothing but love and undying devotion. We were her family and no one else was allowed to enter this family, oh but any other animal we wanted to add to our family was just okay with her never feeling like she wasn't the special one, and boy did we add from rabbits, Guinea Pigs, to a Parrot "Charlie", to another dog "Purdy" at age 10 and she welcomed all with love. I guess knowing she was the top dog no matter what. What a special and beautiful girl she was. She was always there first thing in the morning and the last thing at night oh do I miss her. Not seeing her there when I open the door really hurts, and the Bone supply misses her too. I know she is in a better place and has finally met "Fritz" the dog on the pedistool now I know it holds two very special friends of mine. With love and kindness any dog can be a friend. Lady please run and jump as never before and beg for those bones, in heaven there is and endless supply, be there waiting to show me the way over the bridge. While there check in on "Purdy" please make sure she found Nanny and Poppy, In the mean time know that my Love for you will never die only increase because there has to be some reason for all this pain I feel.
Rest my "Lady" and oh boy you were the Lucky one it was my pleasure having you join our family. Love You and Thank you for being our beloved "LadyJane"

Doreene DeRuiter

Our little Ladybug was a wonderful and loving companion. 15 years ago I found her at our local shelter. She was 3 years old and I knew the moment I saw her that she needed to become a part of our family.
She had been rescued from a mentally ill woman along with 50 other dogs. She had a wonderful life with us.
We took her everywhere. Camping, canoeing,
anyplace that we could take her, we would.
I miss her terribbly and I wish so very badly that I could have her back, but God had other plans. Lady, we love you and miss you and you will always be in our hearts.
We will see you again someday at the bridge, where you will be waiting with a wagging tail.
I love you!

Cathy, Doug, and Jacob Bayer

Lady was my dad's dog.
When he passed away we inherited her.
She was one of the most affectionate dogs I had ever had.
She was playful and sweet and loved to be petted.
She truly was a Lady.
The onset of her illness was gradual.
The changes coming slowly but you could see them.
In the end she didn't know where she was half the time, seemed to be in great distress and could not rest.
When you looked into her eyes it was like looking into two deep brown pools with nothing inside.
I made the choice to put her to sleep.
She was about 14 years old.
She had, had a good life.
I can still remember the day we went to the vet.
I knew this was the day.
She only made one sound and looked at me for the first time in a while like she knew me and understood.
I haven't cried that hard in years.
She went peacefully, with grace, without a whimper.
There will never be another dog like her.
She was my best friend and companion.
She was quiet and faithful.
You never really know what you have until it is gone.
I got a puppy just recently.
He is nothing like Lady and I was ready to commit to another animal.
There are no comparisons.
I am so glad of that.
Lady may be gone but she will never be forgotten.

Becky

A few years ago you you walked into my garden and into my life, white as snow and with the grace and dignity of a proper princess. Lady was the only name that suited a beauty like you.

We had good times and some bad times, but know that I will always love you dearly.

Today, you crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge, and I was not there to say goodbye.

I really hope that your and my kittycat friends that went ahead of you are all there to greet you, and that you are all now happy together.

I will see all of you again someday, but until then, farewell, my sweet Lady.

Sybren

Our lovely Lady, we still miss you.

Frank & Karen

Lady you will be truly missed and someday we will all be together again. Love you always girl

Scott & Michele Graham

Dear Lady - I have not forgotten you my old friend.
I still miss you VERY MUCH!
You were a joy to have in my life and there is a sense of longing that still remains.
I miss you and will never ever forget you! I have gotten better about understanding that there was nothing that I could have done for you that the cancer finally won but everytime of think of losing you I still break down and cry over it.
I would have done anything to save you.
I will never forget the pain of that day but know now that you are no longer in pain and are at peace.
You will always be with me in my heart.
YOU WERE A GREAT DOG & I MISS YOU VERY MUCH.
Rest in peace my loyal friend, until we meet again.
Grace

We got Lady from the local spca but she was sick when we got her and we didn't know. We are glad that we gave her a comfortable life for the last 3 weeks of her life. She was anemic. She was a one of a kind dog and we loved her so much. She loved teddy bears and would gather all of them up and put them all together on a bed and then maybe she would take them off that bed and put them on another bed. We love you lady.

Paula Powell

I love you rice face!

Marci

We love and miss you. You will always be in our hearts. We will never forget "Our Lady."

Coleen O'Mara

To Lady Ashley I had wished for a few more years and was not ready for you to leave me. But I know you will be at the Rainbow bridge waiting for me and my mom.

Ginnette Powell

Lady, you were such a free spirit.
When we saw you at the pound your eyes told us you needed a home.
You stood up and tried to reach us through the gate and we knew you were the one.
You were a great dog and we will miss you dearly.
I know you are with Wizzer and Shadow chasing squirells. We love you!

Sheila

Lady was my best friend. Always by my side. Through the death of my husband, to three children moving away. She is greatly missed

Jill Wright

Two days after Christmas my boyfriend threw me out of his house and kept Lady; he never cared if I every saw her again or not. I brought her some dogfood and her medication the end of February and then that was the last I saw her before she died. I even had to go to our local shelter to make sure that when Joe brought her body in she was DOA and that he didn't have her killed. It was an awful way to say goodbye to somebody that I loved so much, just to see her wrapped up in a freezer. I got her when she was 2 and got to love her for so many years. I hope she's waiting for me when I get there...

Faith Vander Snow

You were our perfect puppy.
You stayed by my side all day and all night until your heart gave out today.

Janice Hamilton

Our daughter filled our life with love and our hearts grew large with joy.
She never failed to make us smile and comfort us with warmth.
Her death was very senseless and tragic to us all.
And grieving is the hardest thing we've yet to so so far.
We pray that she endured no pain, that is was quick and swift. And that her last passing thought was "boy, did they love me".
She had a very lovely life with hugs and speical rides.
A part of her will forever reside in every single life.
Love Mummy and Daddy

Cassie came to us at the age of 3 weeks, her mother had become sick as well as all her liter mates. So we had a new born baby pup to contend with, so with the help of our cat we raised Cassie Annto become a full grown dog, of 15 years, and a mother herself of 3 liters. She developed breast cancer and we had to put her down today. She was our world, our friend and most of all the love of our lives. As mother and daughter, we have grown formed a life-long connection with Cassie, she came into our lives when we were just starting over and has seen us through a divorce, break-ups with boyfriends, through grade school, through high school and now into college. She kept Mom warm at night when we snuggled in Celinda's bed because we were so homesick for her. Cassie was a fierce protector of our hearts and our souls. We love her so very much and know that she will please God even more helping to protect his angels there. God Bless You Cassie We will love you always. You are in our souls for life.

Love,
Mom and Cindy

Chester was a beautiful, vibrant, spunky and adventurous little girl. She was part of a trio but was always the one to hop off and explore or get into trouble on her own. Chester loved to eat and was always pushy about getting food first. She was so sweet and loved cuddles.

Nothing will be the same without you baby girl, I love you so much and miss you with every breathe I take. You should have had more time with us. I know you're probably in a big veggie field in the sky,digging to your little heart's content. You'll always be in our hearts. Oliver and Isabella miss you so much too and send you lots of bunny kisses. Goodbye for now little girl.

Meredith Barrett

Baby sister to an only female child for 14 years.
Loved and will be much missed.
She was called to the summerland on 8/27/07 - may she run thru fields of green and frolic as she did as when a puppy.

Sybil

Lady, we miss you girl.
You gave us the best 13 years of our lives.
We were so sorry that you had to go but it really put our hearts at ease that you were ready even if we weren't entirely. I will miss you terribly and a day won't go by where I won't think of you and think of all the joy you brought in my life.
I love you Lady. I'll never forget you. I can't wait to see you again someday and we'll play like we did when you and I were younger.

Jack and Carolyn Thacker

Lady was beautiful.
Her hair was pale yellow and her ears were soft as a could be.
She would prance for her food and wait for a woofer treat when she had done good, which was all the time.
She slept by my bed and loved to ride in the car.
She was my girl, my sweet precious girl and I will miss her so very much.

Debby

Lady Girl was a special dog for us.
We got her from some people when she was 1-1/2 yrs. old.
A beautiful blonde color with light markings on her back and face.

Always protective, and watchful of her family.
She loved children.
She and our Bear and a litter of beautiful puppies.
She was a wonderful companion dog.
Smarter than her owners sometimes.
Lady seem to know when things were happening.
Lady I still miss you.
It's hard to go to sleep without that special kiss you gave me everynight.
I miss you in my life.
Sleep well my love, be at peace.
We know there won't be another dog like you.
Love Cindy & Doug Clifton

My best friend, I miss you so!
You were my friend while we waited for Marsha to join us.
You were my protector while I slept, you were my friend no matter what.
You can walk again and run and play, the pain is gone in your body but mine is as strong as ever.
I love you I miss you and one day on rainbow bridge we will meet again.
Rest in peace my dear friend!

My first "daughter".
You were so gentle with the kittens, flattening yourself to the ground when you played with them so they wouldn't be afraid of you.
You are the best, most loyal friend I have ever had.

You didn't get jealous when I had my first human daughter when you were 7.
You were a kind, gentle, fun playmate for for Samantha and Skylar.
How much you loved to run, swim, and go for car rides.
I'll see you again, Lil Dog.
I love you.

Ame Strube

Lady-
Thank you for giving me the most wonderful gift of unconditional love.
People say how lucky you were but I feel like I was the lucky one.
I am so grateful that my face was the last thing you saw before you left me.
I hope you know how much I loved you and how much you will be missed!!

Sheri

Beloved lady,
you were the best chocolate eating dog, even though it was bad for you.We miss you soo much, you were a good girl, pop's back seat driver who loved the shore. You escaped death's door many a time but always bounced back. I loved the way even though you could barely see at the end you were able to tell I was there.
I hope your passing went quick,and grandmom brought you over the bridge because I know you made it.
Miss You and Love you Lots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ps. now you need to look out for Meghan and Jamie

To my Puka...

I've loved you for so long...thank you for always been there, loving me, consoling me, making me happy throughout all these years. I will miss you greatly - but remember you always. Check on me from time to time and wait for me with those beautiful brown eyes and that wagging tail -- we'll be united again. I love you still, I'll love you always.

Your Mama...Sasha.

A hunter, a mother, a friend, a family member. We all miss you very much bunny, we all knew it was your time, and that all your freinds met you there and helped you across Rainbow Bridge. W e knew you qwere in too much pain to enjoy life any more, and that, we could not be selfish and keep you to ourselves. We knew Lady-bird.
We know now that you have your angel wings, and that your watching over us all, including your daughter Mia, who is just one of the many gifts you gave us.
We will see you again girl, Daddy misses you the most. You were his idle.
Please enjoy your Heavenly youth, and do not worry about us, we will take care of eachother & your baby Mia. Not that Mia can't take care of herself & us too, after all, she did learn from the best... She learned from YOU.

Sabrina

Roxie was the best friend and companion anyone could ever have. She was noble, loving, faithful, and in all ways a pleasure to be with. I am blessed with a wonderful family, but there is a hole in it today. I hope that the pain of her passing will fade away, but I pray that the lessons she taught us all about unconditional love will not.

Roxie, we will miss you forever.

Daddy

You were the best dog ever.
You remain in our hearts and will be there forever.

Mary Ann Wheeler

My beautiful Tabitha, thank you for sharing your life with me. Thank you for loving me and allowing me to love you. I will forever miss your soundless meows and your nudging me for attention. I'm so glad that I rescued you and brought you home. I hope that your life with us was better for you. I know my life without you will not be the same. I love you, Tabby.

Lori Choman

Honey, you gave the best hugs in the whole world.
We miss you so much and will love you forever.

Yuki,

We miss you and love you so.
Be happy until we meet again.

Mommy and Daddy

Ladybell passed away on Jan 5th.
We only had her for 4 yrs.
We took her off the street and hopefully gave her a better life then the one she had before coming to us.
We miss her so much.
She will forever be in our hearts.
Miss you baby girl.
Love mom and dad

Lainey was truly the bravest girl.
She bravely fought osteosarcoma for a whole year.
She never lost her spirit, through amputation, chemo and even near the end when something neurological sapped the life out of her body.
Her mind was clear but her body gave out on her.
I miss you every day E-Laine, Lois, Lainey-bug.
You are forever in my heart.
Godspeed I love you always

Melissa Osborne

My darling Lalique was, from the moment her mom placed her in my hands, a special, sparkling peice of heaven on Earth.
As soon as she could open her eyes, she locked those deep blue orbs into mine, connecting on a soul level we pray for but rarely see at this level.
She was not only gorgeous, but she was sweet and loving, playful and ready always to be loved on and kissed.
Her demise was quick (thankfully) and as much as I am greiving over her, I look at her sweet blue point sister left behind and know how very much I have been blessed to have Lalique in my life, for whatever short time God gave us.
I do not understand why this happened, and will work diligently to understand the medical aspect so that I may keep all of my furry charges healthy and happy.
I can't believe she is gone, and thank God for her sweet essence that came into my life and left like a feather in the wind, so quietly and peacfully.
I love you, sweet Lalique, and will look for you when I cross the Rainbow Bridge.
Look for a big, beautiful seal point Birman named Bo.
He was my first love, and I told him to look for you and I know he will keep you close and safe as he shows you the majesty of heaven. So until I see your sweet face again, and stroke your soft, brilliant white fur, and look deep into your sapphire blue eyes,
please know I love you and thank God for every remembrance of you.

Deborah Powell

Lambeau...
Last night I had to make the gut wrenching decision to set you free of your tired broken body.
You were a true survivor, little man.
The 8 years of hell and torture you endured in the puppymill left you with so many health issue and so many trust issues.
I am so glad that I had you for the last 14 months of your life so you could see that there were people that didn't want to use you or hurt you.
When you came to me you finally got to know what it was like to play in the grass, sleep in a bed, get treats and all the love and cuddles you could handle.
In return you offered me your unconditional love and trust for the first time in your life.

The years of abuse finally took thier toll on you and last night I did the last loving thing I could do for you.
I let you go.
I wanted to be selfish and keep you here but you were ready to go.

So now Lambeau baby, you can run on all four legs and it doesn't hurt anymore.
You can play in the yard and let the wind blow over you.

I love you little man.
My heart goes with you.
Mommy

To my sweet baby girl, two years at the bridge.

I love you and I miss you every day, Lana.
I feel you close to me, and I see your sweet shining eyes and smiling face when I close my eyes.

I know we will be together when the time comes.
In the meantime, I will hold you in my heart, miss you every day, and honor the wonderful, loving, wise, wise soul you are.

Love, Carol

My dear sweet Sir Lancelot, a/k/a Dancin' Lance.
I thought time would heal the wounds but I still miss you so much. I hope you have found peace, serenity and health at the Rainbow Bridge.

Maryellen Schook

The pet store where I met you magically appeared,
I wasn't in the market for another pet.
But when I held you, you wrapped your paws around me as if to say, please don't leave me here.
I left, but I had to come back to claim you, as you had me.
You had me at Meow.
Then the store closed, disappeared!
You have been my companion, my friend, my four footed child, my comfort, my source of laughter and affection.
There will be an unfillable empty space in our lives--
ours, the children who have known no one but you--
And when the time came, you waited for me to come home.
You came and sat at my feet, waited for me to pick you up.
You wrapped your paws around my arm as I cradled you like a baby--knowing that you were going.........
And we all said goodbye.
Some people say you cannot love pets, they cannot love you--but please explain the horrible ache in my heart, and the tears that won't stop.

I miss you so much. Sixteen years!
Come back and visit in spirit from time to time, will you?
Hope you are where there is plenty of cream, and pasta and chips.
you have all our love.

Ann Scattergood

May some prayers be told in honour of my beloved and cheerful friend who died some days ago. My heart remains empty but so willing to see my friend again in order to be together again and never more separated. I love you Lancy you are my beloved son and best friend forever.

Claudia Morales

Laney - Thank you for all the wonderful years of pure love, enjoyment, and companionship.
Thank you for all the treasured moments and memories we will cherish a lifetime. You are an absolutely beautiful and compassionate dog and we miss you terribly. We will forever love you and forever miss you, until we meet again on Rainbow Bridge.
You will always be a legacy to our family. We Love You.

Kevin, Alyssa, Abby, & Ashley

I always told you that you were my little angel sent from above. Your wings were just hidden under your fur. You were such a huge part of my life for the last 5 & 1/2 years. The best years of my life. I'm so sorry for anything I could have done differently. I hope you heard mine & Daddy's voices that day on the operating table as you passed away. You will forever be in my heart & can never be replaced. Only the good die young. Mommy Loves you, Laney!!!

Our sweet little boy - you were taken from us far too soon.
But we knew it was time to let you go to the Rainbow Bridge.
I will light a candle for you and remember always what a wonderful companion you were to us for the years you were with us.
Wait for us and we will cross the Rainbow Bridge together.

Monika and Les Rieger

Lani was my sister. She was in the family 2 years before I was born, and when I first came home fom the hospital she stretched her neck out as far as she could and layed the biggest lick ever on my face, and I just cooed. We were meant to be. When my time comes, I hope me and Lani can cross the Rainbow Bride together. I miss you Lan!

McKenzie

Lanikai,
Say hi to Hank for me and you both have fun until I come to join you two.
Lanikai- you are the best friend and the best baby I ever had, or could ever have.
Forever
wouldn't be enough time together.
I miss you with all my heart and soul.
You loved me more than anyone deserves to be loved and taught me more about life in your too short 15 years and 5 months than a lifetime could teach me.
I will always have you in my heart, just like I do Hank.
Thank you for giving me the gift of being my baby, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me!
I miss you soo much!
Wuf Wuf - Mom

Even though we only had him for three days, he was very special. Even Dre was attached to him!

Lantana was found in the middle of Lantana Road by the garbage transfer station on Sunday morning. I’m glad we saved him and he was not killed by a car.

His short life was an important one.

Dre & Vicki Robertson

My little driveway hockey playing buddy who now plays goalie with the angels. You are so sadly missed and forever loved. Rest in peace my little porker belly, you changed my life. John

I will remember Lapis's bravery and strenght going through his last months of life. But more so I will always remember his beauty, his blue soulful eyes that would always look right into you and his great dignity. He was my beautiful Birman who went on walks with me with his leash and watched me swim in the pool.
I will always remember him and miss him every day of my life I know. He was my soulmate.

Kristopher Hollinger

Larry,

For the ears that I had you, you were my best firend.
I feel that I could have given you so much more, but you were taken from me on that Saturday morning.
I miss hearing your houl, you waking me in the morning and most of all I miss the love that you
gage me over the years.
I don't know how to move on without your little face here to greet me when I come home.
I know that you are better off where you are, and I know that one day you and I will be together again, but for now we had to be pparted.
The tears will never stop, my heart will always have you there, and my thoughts will always be with you.
I don't know how I will stop the tears from coming down, or how I will be able to go on without you here, but I know that it is what you would want.
I will always love you, and I will miss you untill the day that we meet again.

Firgive me for what I had to do for you to not suffer, I hope that it was the right thing to do.
I will love you forever, and forever you will be missed.

I will always love you,

Love your mama Lisa

Lars -- I am sorry that we didn't catch your asthma earlier.
I don't even know if that would have made a difference.
I did everything in my power, financially and emotionally, to keep you with me a little longer, but I know that you were suffering.
I miss you very much and hope that you are now able to breath and enjoy the company of my Dad.
You are and always will be my little handsome boy.
You were a joy to my life as well as my life saver.
Please understand why I had to put you down and always know that you will never be forgotten.
Kitrina and I love you and miss you very much.

Debbie

Lars was such a special boy. He loved so many people and had a full and happy life. A donation in his name has been given to help fight the cancer that claimed him from us. You will be missed Larsie!!!!

Abby

My little Lasi was just 8 yrs old when she was diagnosed with liver cancer. She was the love of our lives. We miss her more than words can say. She was a character, and so happy all the time. She would lay by my side when I was sick, and was happy when I got better. She knew alot of english words that I taught her. She was so sweet and easy to train. She gave us unconditional love and we pray she is in a happy place just waiting for my husband and I to come to her again. I just want her back but she is gone. I don't think I will ever understand why a precious little baby who never bothered a soul or hurt anyone, can just disappear. God bless her little soul. We will always love you our Lasi girl.

We will miss you always. our precious angel.

With all our love, Daddy and Mom Mom.

A Prayer for Lasi

Written by David A. Stone

Heavenly Father,

Today we offer our most precious gift, our beautiful angel, Lasi. By your grace alone Lord, we were given this gift to love, cherish and take care of for the brief time she was on this earth.

We thank you Lord for this most precious gift. Without her love, friendship, affection, and strength. We would have been lost.

Lasi did all of her mixed breeds so proud. And though we weep at her passing, Lord, please bless us with all of our loving memories to come.

With all our love, Daddy and Mom Mom.

The Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for Lasi. We ask that you bless this cremation, as this will allow us to keep Lasi with us for all time, as Lasi throughout her life was always happiest when we were all together as a family.

This we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen

Thanks for sharing your life with us, you gave us so much pleasure. Twelve years passed so fast and you always showed your love for us.
Sweet dreams my liitle Lass, we'll never forget you. Love David and Val

I am 23 and Lassie has been in my life and been my best friend since I was 14 and just starting high school. He was very special to me, very, very special to me. He really was my best friend. We had a special bond that I will never forget. We connected the minute my dad brought him home to me. Lassie took a part of my heart with him and one day we will meet at Rainbow Bridge and I will get it back and he and I will be reunited. I love you Lassie--Always and Forever. You are my best friend....the best friend a girl could ask for.

Amanda Wilson

Our dear Latka, our hero!

We never could have imagined you would not be here today.
We were looking forward to spending many years to come with you by our side.
We haven't been able to stop crying over your loss.
We miss you so terribly.
You were a best friend to all of us.
You knew me.
You knew my heart as I knew yours.
You were and will always be deeply connected to my soul.
You made us happy and always gave us a reason to come home.
You loved.
You cared.
You protected.
You were so smart and sometimes a little lazy.
You needed a towel when getting out of the pool or a bath.
You were my princess.
I enjoyed cooking for your finicky tastes.
I enjoyed your kisses and huge hugs.
I am so glad we were able to love eachother before you were taken by a coyote.
You were so brave and strong.
The first time you fought off the coyote but very unfortunately you did not survive this time.
I know you are in doggy heaven with all the other lovely creatures of the earth.
Please look down on me and send me your strength and love.
We will always remember our first and most precious dog.
You have been and will always remain an integral part of our family.
Taneen misses you terribly.
Tanzil misses you terribly.
We love you with all of our hearts.

LaTorch came from old blood, he was a thick stocky horse who weighed in at 1800 pounds. Not at all small but he was the epitomy of the term "Gentle Giant". He taught me how to ride, he taught me how to be tough. Torchy passed on in his sleep such a short time ago and now we're all a little lost without him. His last few years were spent in ultimate leisure. Eating, sleeping, being pet and spoiled.
I'll never forget the day he broke my toe because he was so big, I, just a girl, didn't have the strength to push his big hoof off my foot and he didn't even know he was standing on it.
No one ever really broke him, he just seemed to know it was his duty to haul me around. He was only three years younger than me after all so we'd practically grown up together.
Torchy, I'll always miss you and your nicker when you knew I had lettuce, your sweet spots, the way you would chew on my hand when I hit them with a brush. The way you patiently put up with my attempts to teach riding lessons to the younger girls, the way you put up with me. We couldn't have asked for a better big guy. Scotty misses you too big guy. Things just aren't the same without you. Love always...

This tribute if for a stray kitty that was hit by a car and drug herself to my niece's home.

My niece is extremely allergic to cats but did all she could for her until I arrived.
In the meantime, she called all her neighbors to see if the little gray and white kitty belonged to them or if they knew the owner.
No luck, just a sweet little stray kitty, that could have been a loving companion.

But now she is lying under the shade of a tree out of the hot sun, panting, with a mangle leg and pale gums to indicate serious internal problems.
I couldn't bear to let her suffer any longer.
I gently placed her in a box to transport her to the animal shelter where she could be euthanized.
I sat in the back seat with her to talk to her, stroke her head and comfort her.

Just before arriving at the shelter, she let out two pitiful meows and then laid her head down.
I thought she had crossed the bridge.
But she was still barely alive.
I stroked her head while I gave all the info I knew about her to the animal control officer.

She looked at me and gave me three kitty kisses and a silent meow as I said good-bye to this gentle creature.
Her life may not have been easy in this world, but gentle hands and soft words filled her last moments.
She crossed the bridge about 1 pm this afternoon, loved.

She had to have a name and not just 'stray kitty'.
She found comfort at my niece's on Laurel Springs, so I thought Laura would be a pretty name for a pretty little girl.

Go to the Rainbow Bridge, Laura!
I whispered a prayer to my Hershey that has gone before you to take care of you until I meet both of you there someday.

Patty O'Dell

My sweet sweet Lauren, you'll always be in our hearts.
The house feels empty without you.
We miss you.

My dearest LaVergne, how I remember the first day you walked into my life. You were only 3 months old, the cutest puppy in the whole world !!! You came in the house, you peed, then you grabbed one of mom's $200.00 shoes and made it a chew toy LOL.
When you learned to climb the stairs, you made LOTS of chew toys out of mom's expensive shoes.

I remember you falling off my bed and crying because you couldn't jump up so I lifted you up and then 10 minutes later, THUMP LOL, so then I made steps for you because we were getting ready to move.
You were the first large indoor dog we ever kept indoors and you became and stayed my baby, my best friend.
I miss you so much.

When you were sick I told the Vet that money was no object but you were covered with bone cancer.
I remember taking you for your last walk around the house before we took you to the vet the next day and when the vet sent us home so he could sedate you because your breathing was labored, he wanted to take x-rays, and then he said said he cussed a bit because sweetie you had 90% coverage of bone cancer and it was pressing against your esophagus and that's why it was difficult for you to eat.

You were a trooper LaVergne, you NEVER cried, whined or yelped, you didn't want us to know you were sick.
I am so sorry, I should have taken you to the vets earlier or gave you suppliments

You will ALWAYS be in my heart LaVergne and I await for the time we are reunited.
There will never be another dog like you, you made me laugh and smile especially on days I didn't want to smile or laugh.

I will always love you LaVergne.
Rest in Peace my heart !
I WILL see you soon !!!!!!!

I love you LaVergne, always and forever !!!!!!!

Love,

Ricky

Dianne Surrey

You were my loyal friend, always there when things were at there best and there worst. You always gave a warm greating and always happy to see me. You will be dearly missed, I will cherish the time we had together. You will always be in my heart.

Ed Smith

I picked a little long haired black cat in 1994 because it was alone and quiet in a room full of cats. Cat Care Society, who had found her, said she was an alley cat and about 2 years old. With me, she learned to jump on window sills, stare at birds and squirrels, tell me when her food bowl was half empty, and meet me at the door every night.
I arrived home last night and Layla was slow to come and see me. When she did she purred so much and was so happy I was home. Yet her purring sounded strange and she wasn’t walking or breathing well. Today the vet said a lot of fluid around the lungs and it was likely that Layla, at 15, wouldn’t survive the surgery.
Layla died today. What a good and loving cat she was!

Clint Jones

Layla,we will love you forever. You are so very missed.

Bill Christine Mark Katie and Sarah

Goodbye Layla. You were absolutely the best dog in the world. You will FOREVER be missed and always be remembered. You were sweet and beautiful and no one could have asked for a better friend. I will take you with me wherever I go. I'm sorry are time on Earth could not have been longer, but I know we will see each other again. Look down on me, Luck Dragon, and know that I will be looking up for you. Say hi to Spike for me and you two stay out of trouble. I will love you always.

Megan and Jay

We were blessed beyond words by having Layla as a member of our family for nearly 10 years.

We had her before having our children.
Affectionately we would call her daughter and the kids would call her sister.

She loved us without reservation and always made us feel happy. Her presence will be felt by us forever.

Godspeed to our "beautiful little cocker girl."

Joe, Michelle, Ben and Sidney Cruz

My sweet Layla left us yesterday and our hearts are broken. She was such a special girl,gentle, loving & so patient - the best Irish Setter in the world. Sleep tight my angel, wait for us we will see you again.

Mummy,Daddy, Ruairidh & Freya XXXXX

Though your time here was short...thank you for your unconditional love. Thank you for making us laugh and for reminding us all how very special furbabies are. We miss you, precious Layla!

Mom For Brooke & Devin

You (Layla) were my beautiful, little blue eyed girl.
I will miss you so much!
I love you....

Christy Craig

WE LOVE YOU TITI.

Daisy

You came to us from a shelter to nurse back to health for you "forever home" family who were waiting for you to joing their family.
You were too sick to save, and now you are healthy and awaiting for us or your forever family at the bridge.
I'm sorry we didn't get to know you better or see more of your personality, but your sweetness will live in our hearts forever.
Please know that you are loved, now, and that you will always be loved and never forgotten.
I'm sorry we couldn't introduce you to your forever family, but you will forever be a part of our family.
We love you!!

Sandy and Michael

L.B you were everything to me, i loved you with all my heart.
I miss so much!

My heart continues to hurt

Will and Sheli Knoll

My baby died to save my life and the lives of all my other animals.
He was just going to be 7 years old.
He had lung cancer (which I know I gave to him - I smoked in ths house) and because of him I quit smoking after 38 years.
It's been 61 days now and I will never smoke again.
Thank you LD.
I wish I had never smoked and you were still here with me.
I miss you so much.
I will see you at the Rainbow Bridge my love.

Diane R. Peters

Thank you Peah for being my friend and love bug all these past 17 years.
Thank you for listening to me and always watching over me even when I am sleeping and I wake up to see you.
Thank you that you were telling me for a
long time that it was getting to be close to your time to go.
You are such a good friend, I am so grieving your loss.

Suzanne Smith

She was the sweetest, kindest, most loving dog I've ever known.

Lego "Northshore"
10 January 2006 - 22 January 2007

My Leibchen Marie shared every birthday, Christmas, car ride, lost tooth, trip to grandma's house, laugh and tear for 12 priceless years. You were my best Mother's Day surprise. Devin has lost his little sister and I, my little daughter. This is not goodbye, just until. Marmy always comes back for you.

Leila, you are dearly missed.
I pray that your passing was not one of suffering, that God's angels were there to greet you, hold you and walk you through the gates of heaven.
Your soul is free to run wherever it may, never to be restricted by fences again.
Take comfort in knowing that there are no cars in heaven and that Bill Bill and JoJo will be there to play fetch with you.
I love you; my heart is broken.

Emily

To my Kugels, "The Perfect Dog".
Devoted, loving companion and my best friend.
At my side through thick and thin, always willing to please.
You will be greatly missed by me, your brother Harley, your cousin Arkadas and all your two legged family members and friends.
Always remember...mommy loves you and God loves you.

Kellyann Dougherty

I Love you, Lela Poo.
God must be very pleased for you did a great job.

I thank God almighty for you and I will always be gracious for His magnificient Goodness and kindness.

I will love you always, my sweet baby girl, sent by God for the purpose to love and be loved. Well done my sweet Lela Poo!

Kim C. Long

I miss my old friend more than I thought possible. I expect to see him in all the familiar places he always was, which was usually with me.
At night I keep expecting to feel him jump on the bed and sleep with me. I loved you so much, my friend and I hope you are at peace. We miss you.

Wendy Willard

Goodnight our little star, you were more than just a pet you were our baby.
we will miss you but we know you are at peace now.
You fought so hard through everything and we thank you for choosing us to be your Mummy and Daddy. God bless Lemmy x x x

Julie and Pete

For over 15 years you gave me and the girls your love and attention. Even when it got hard for you to climb the stairs, you still had a smile and a wagging tail. We miss you Lena. Please give Indy and Pop-Pop our love until we see all of you again. I'm sure they will throw the ball for you and you can run as much as you want.

Nancy Forrest

In loving memory of my beloved princess Lena. I missed you so much and remebering all the kisses you gave me and I gave you back. I know you are feeling happy and healthy in your RainBow Bridge home. Love and Kisses my beloved.

LENNY

Rest in Peace, Lenny.
You were so sweet and loving.
You were loony and fun.
We will never, ever forget the time you jumped into the dryer and stood there looking out.
You made us laugh and you made us cry.
Even though your body was ravaged by disease, you were still loving and filled with an optimistic joy for life.
You were so brave and you fought the disease for so long.
We wish that there was something more that could have been done.
We know you left us feeling loved and special, because you were.
We are grateful for having known you.
Your spirit touched so many people who will never forget you.
Thank you for sharing your spirit with us.

Run free in the fields of Heaven, Lenny.
Your body is whole once again.
We know you will be watching over us and all the dogs who are suffering like you were.
You will always be loved and we will move forward in your memory.

Love,
Susan, Mary, Gail, and HH

Leo and brother of Raven (08/19/91 - 03/23/2007) also listed here, was the sweetest cat. He acted more like a dog and enjoyed playing in the water. He was daddy's big little boy and he knew it. Along with Raven, especially, he was a love of my life. My life began when they came into it and I am glad they allowed me to be their friend. He will be missed each and every day.

William Burton

YOU WERE ONLY WITH US FOR A SHORT TIME BUT YOUR IMPRINT ON OUR HEARTS WILL LAST FOREVER. A LITTLE BALL OF FUR CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER, WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU, AND KNOW THAT WE TRIED AS MUCH AS WE COULD BUT YOU WERE TO SICK FOR THIS PLACE, I KNOW YOU ARE HAPPIER NOW. 9/06-3/12/07

Oh Leo, you were with us for such a short time but made such a HUGE impact on us both.
We are so so sorry we couldnt help you get better, we tried all we could.
I couldnt bear to put you through anymore testing, and that last night you were in so much discomfort we has no choice but to put you at rest.
You were such a special little man, everyone at the Vet fell in love with you, they knew you more than they did me!!
I miss our midnight smooches, your wet little nose in my eye or up my nose! I miss the purring in my ear. WE JUST MISS YOU terribly.
Rest is peace our sweet courageous little lion, go find Sebastian at Rainbow Bridge and one day we will be together again for eternity.
Love mum & dad xxooxx

Leo was a sweet little dog. He was loved and is missed.
God Bless You!

Whitney & Rona Perry

I want you to know I love you Leo. Forgive me for what I needed to do.
May you be forever in peace, love and joy.
I hope we meet again, my favorite Kit Kat. I miss you. God bless you always.

This week I had to put to rest my best friend ever.
This little orange tabby captured me with one glance one hot August afternoon and we were inseparable ever since.
He came to me battered and bruised, but he grew into a 20-pound lion.
As I held his 7 pound little body in my arms after the shot, his big yellow eyes once again met mine.
I thought he had passed on, but he gave me one last wink.
That way, he was thanking me for having the courage to let him go.
Leo the Lion Hearted lives on somewhere and I look forward to being reunited with him some day.

Philip Germani

I miss you, buddy.

Rick Lentz

To my best friend, my angel Leo,

Thank you for gracing my life with your loving presence for 12 happy years.

Love never dies, it just gets stronger with time.

I love you forever, Leo, and I'll see you again.

Love,
Your Mommy

Leo, You were only with us 6 short months but I will never forget you. To bad who ever had you be fore us didn't love you like I came to love you. You were so sweet and trusting. Always under my feet for your canned food. I did not know you were sick and would have to leave so soon. I thank you for choosing me to live out your last months with. Good bye Leo I love you!

Bonnie Guerra

My most gentle and loving Leo was hit by a car this morning. He was my very best friend, he was very attached to me and thought I was just the best. I feel like I let him down by not saving him on the road this morning...I should have watched him more carefully. I will never forget you my baby boy Leo....the most special gift anyone ever gave me.

Ginger

still thinking about you-you have been at the bridge for 16 mths.you live in my heart and soul forever.

You were not just my cat you were my babygirl and best friend. your buddy Harley and I miss you very much and one day well meet on the bridge and all be together again.. Tell Goldie that daddy misses her as well when you get there.

Tony Fulton

We were so lucky to have you, Leo, for 15 years.
The joy that you brought us will live in our hearts.
There's not a day that goes by where we won't miss you or think about you, but we know that you're in pet Heaven now watching down on us and continuing to love us unconditionally.
In loving memory- LeoMass... we love you!

Lauren Tomasso

Leo,

Thank you so much for bringing such joy into my life and for trusting me implicitly with yours.
I'll miss your gentle nature, your ra-ra-roo.
You, my tiny lion, the shadow at my feet, my bubba-lee.
You were so brave to hang on long enough to let us all say goodbye and I understand why you had to let go.
We will think of you often and with love until we see you again in Heaven. You're my best boy forever.

Love, Momma

Leo Peo was our big boy fur baby.
Lived a good long life, put up with many moves, loved to camp, had a personality to beat the band, stubborn, but taught us to love the unloveable, forgive, and was always there for us.

Lisa and Art

In tribute to this little doggie who has been my best friend for almost 14 years. Your paw print is permanently imprinted on my heart. I already miss you and this is just the beginning, I hope that you left knowing how much I love and care about you. Love you always, mama Anne

I'll never forget the day I brought Leo home.
I walked into the breeder's house, and first saw a little female kitten.
She was cute, but I knew she was not the one.
Next I saw a black and white kitten, and although he was cute, I wasn't sure if I could see him as my pet.
Then my little Leo walked out from behind the couch, and in that moment I felt something in my heart stir.
I knew he was the kitten for me.

During the nine years that Leo was with me, we bonded in ways that will never allow that bond to be severed; not even in death.

This will be my first Christmas without him in nine years, and I'm already finding it a hard time.
I do have a new kitten, who I adore, and I just hope that Leo will be his guardian angel.
I know he already is my guardian angel.

I love you Leo.

Kristina

On the 24 March 2004, my friend and I went to see a Persian cat that had been rescued after being found out in the countryside.
He had been living in a bus shelter for about three months, he was in a terrible state when rescued, he was covered in ticks, fleas and had various infections.
We had to go to the Veterinary Surgery to see him. We immediately both fell in love with him.
He had to have all his fur shaved off and all that was left was a pom-pom at the end of his tail, hence his nickname, Leo the Lion! Leo was only about 2-3 years old then. He was a loveable but very strong-willed bundle of fun and soon settled in with my two other cats Pushkin (now 12 year old Tabby) and Ria (now 10 year old British Lilac Shorthair).

On Sunday 11 March 2007, he became ill and was admitted to the vet's surgery where he had tests and x-rays.
Leo was unable to urinate, and was in obvious pain.
He came home to me on Thursday morning 15 March, but rapidly went downhill, his body was cold and he was barely conscious.
I rushed him back to the vet and I had to do the hardest and kindest thing and put him to sleep forever (he had kidney failure).
Leo was such fun to be with, we had long meaningful conversations every day.
I and my two other cats miss him terribly.
I will get his ashes back soon and bury him in my garden, where he loved to play chasing leaves and watching the birds that came to feed at my bird table.
We'll meet again one day Leo, I know you'll be there waiting for me.
You'll always occupy a place in my heart and I will NEVER forget you. I look forward to meeting you again.

Jen Williams

Leo and Indy...
You brought me so much love and joy, you were both very special to me and I miss you both. Wait for me on the rainbow bridge.

Tricia Keegan

Leon was a loving and very beautiful cat and we loved him so much. He was born in Tallahassee, Florida and died in Towson, Maryland. He will always be with us. We love you Big Boy. (The Daddies)

Dan Scott & Francisco Negron

We love you so much, Leon.
You loved everyone unconditionally. You taught us peace and contentment. Our lives were blessed abundantly when you became a part of our family.
You enriched our lives and the lives of all those who came to know you.
We miss you terribly, our friend, our baby.

Marilyn Vallejo

Leopold was our best friend.
A great cat who loved me, my wife, and our 3 kids without prejudice.
We will miss his morning wake ups, his nightly hops into our beds, and the loud...and I mean...loud purrs that could be heard across the room.
He forever will be a part of our lives.
We love you Leopold.

AJ

Leopoldo my black and beautiful boy, how you loved your sister Tiger,you joined her 5 months after she left us. how I miss you and your sister my heart aches for you two-you were the best little spoiled furbabby in the world. I wish I had a stairway to heaven(RainbowBridge) and I would go visit you each and every day.
I love you with all my heart and soul.
Love you,
Mom

Goodbye to my cheerful, devoted companion of almost 15 years. Thank you for your gifts of joy and acceptance. I know I will see you again.

Lester was the best pet I've ever had.
Completely loyal, loving and a true companion.
I miss him terribly as does my family.
I thank God for putting him in our home for the last 10 years.
He will be greatly missed.

Debbie Colbert

Lester, my first real pet.
When I was born you were already a part of the family.
I have missed you since I was 16 and you passed away.
I'll never forget your beautiful blue eyes and how much you meant to me.

LETO
(February 12, 2004 - March 26, 2007)

Leto with the pushed-in beak,
Always seemed a little weak.
Uttered cutest birdie-speak.
Special one we’ve lost.

Made it through your birthday third
First surviving hatchling bird.
Never more your chirps be heard
Or your feathers tossed.

Though we’ll miss you every day,
Grateful that you came our way.
Now with Delta, Dactyl stay.
Rainbow Bridge you’ve crossed.

Ray & Sym Gallucci

To my special old man we only had 9 months together but you taught me loads, to anyone who reads this never be scared to give an older rescue dog a home because the love they have to give has no limits.I only wish we had longer together
all my big hugs and prayers for my old boy x x x

Amanda McClurg

I miss you so much already my sweet boy. I love you very much and I want to thank you for so many years of joy , fun, and companionship. I will miss your heading rubbing, sitting with me at the desk while I work, sleeping beside me all curled up, and your purring in my ear to wake me up. I am sorry you were so sick, but now you are better, forever.It is going to be difficult without you, but I will always remember you, love you, and cherish our time together. So long little buddy!

Jill Lewis

Levi, my majestic man. You will be missed my all. Your docile, loving and affectionate kisses and kneeding are cherrished and will alwyas be remembered! Please go and find Tedi at Rainbow Bridge and I'll one day see you there. I love you!

Diana & Rich

We love you doodle bug and miss you so terribly much.

Love, Me, Hershey and Louie

You came into my life through a friend and then you became my best buddy. You jumped higher than a 6 foot picket fence to see on the other side. Now you have gone to a side where I cannot join you. You made us laugh, you made us cry. You were my pal when I was sat down outside, pressing your 120+ lbs against me.

Your death came so suddenly (GDV). I hope you forgive me(intubation) and only think of the good times we had together as a family. I miss you so much Levi, you big smuck. I still have to repair the hole you chewed in the fence to get to Setter! You will always be in our hearts. Life just ain't the same without you. Victoria sends her love (widow).

Debbie Comer

You adopted me on a very warm summer day in August 1999 by jumping into my car.
I brought you home and you showed us how loving, precious and smart you were.
It was instant love.
You were always so loyal to us.
You left us suddenly on April 12th.
You were so excited that Daddy was going to take you for a ride in the Jeep around Lake Hefner.
I miss you so very much.
You looked like a little bear with the most precious face.
I loved how your lips would stick on your teeth at times.
You were my little boy.
We love you Levi.
We will see you again some day.
Love, Mama & Daddy

IN MEMORY OF LEVI
Your gentle eyes,
The joy of life
Your listening ear
The evening walks
Your quiet breathing
The many memories.

You will be forever loved and missed by your family

Lewie was the best cat in the world and always was happy.
He slept at my moms head for as long as I can remember.
He was a great cat.

Carmen, Logan, Luke, and Jeanette

I had to put Lewis to sleep.
She went outside yesterday afternoon and didn't return last night or this morning.
We found her this afternoon under a bush in our back yard.
She was very sick and one of her back legs seemed to be paralyzed.
We brought her to an emergency vet who told us she was suffering and that he did not believe she would live more than a month even if he could stabilize her condition. I just couldn't have her spend her last days in an animal hospital with iv's in her, surrounded by strangers.

Here are a few words about my little girl.
Thanks for indulging me.

I found Lewis by accident while I was working as a Case Manager. I brought one of my clients to get some fishing bait at this ramshackle house somewhere out near Mansfield Hollow.
I walked up on the porch of this house hesitantly, thinking the place was kinda of scary in a Silence of the Lambs kind of way, then I looked down and saw a basket of all black and all white kittens and my fear evaporated. I wasn't really in the market for a cat but I knew I had to have Lewis the moment Iaid eyes on her.
Those of you who were around then may remember that she was the cutest little fattest little roundest little black fur ball ever.
She was so round that Moe felt compelled to call her Orson long after it was appropriate to do so.

So I take this little fur ball home thinking "Yeah! Now I have my very own pet who will love me and cherish me!"
Prior to getting Lewis, I had only had dogs and one other cat,a big guy named Iggy who couldn't get enough of me and followed me everywhere like a dog.
I was totally unprepared for true fickle feline behavior.
I had no idea that this little fur ball was about to change my life and turn me into a "true" cat lover - one who understands accepts that it is the cat, not you who sets the terms of the relationship.
I learned that earning a cat's love and adoration takes time, patience and a little feline ass kissing.

Lewis began pointedly ignoring me and lavishing my roommate Beth with all of her love and attention pretty much the moment we got in the door. I would call her, I would plead with her, I would bribe her with food and treats.
She would hide, walk in the opposite direction and pretend I didn't exist.
She would let Beth pick her up, upside down and pet her stomach.
She would sleep with Beth all night.
She would run when I came into a room.
I can't even begin to tell you how jealous I was. It actually reduced me to tears on more than one occasion. I had never had a pet who didn't adore me - what was wrong with this cat? At one point I thought, "Hey maybe she's deaf!
Yes, that's it, she's not ignoring me, she just can't hear me!"
So Mark and I ran around like idiots banging pots and pans.
Turned out she could hear and all we did scare the crap out of her and alienate her even more. I
think she finally started to come around my way when I discovered she liked to fetch. She
had this little stuffed carrot,
I noticed that she would run after it and bring it back to me when I threw it off my bed.
After that I played fetch with her every night at bed time.
It was "our" thing to do together and it started the thaw in her heart that eventually, over the years became mushy mama love. She became more and more vocal and affectionate with me with every year that went by.

Okay I've written a lot already - too much - but it's made me feel really good remembering those things.
Here are some other Lewis memories.

* She was a fierce huntress in her day.
She caught everything from mice, to birds, to moles, to frogs, to snakes, you name it - she had the patience to hunt it down and catch it.
I remember driving up to my little shack in Mansfield and seeing two little black triangles (ears) sticking up in the grass as she patiently stalked her prey.
She could just sit and wait forever and never make a move until she was ready to pounce.

* She was named after an archaeologist named Lewis Binford - who the hell is Lewis Binford?

* She had tons of nicknames but she was mostly just a peanut, a little girl and a lila piga (little girl in danish - sure I've misspelled it).

* Chewy was the love of her life.
He would hog all of the attention, pounce on her and hold her down 'til she squealed but she would always be licking his ears and loving him up 20 minutes later.
They used
to sleep wrapped around each other like a a furry orange and black yin yang.

* She had about 90 lives.
She survived Chewy and
Amalia attacks with grace and aplomb.
She was gone for days once but she made it back home.
She had a thyroid condition for years. AND - she was sheet rocked into a wall once and live to tell the tale.

Lastly, she was such a sweet and gentle soul.
She gave me so much love and affection in the last years of her life.
Her final act of love for me came today when she got herself home to me, despite that fact that she was so, so sick.
I always said it would kill me if I didn't know what happened to her.
It was very painful to make the decision to put her to sleep but I am so happy I was with her. I got to spend 20 minutes with her stroking her ears and chin and telling her how much I loved her and how much happiness she gave me before the Dr. came in.
She was so sick and so weak that she died quickly and peacefully the instant the Dr. started the injection.

Lex was the smartest and most loving dog I have ever known. Not once in all his years did he ever growl at a human or ever attempt to bite--he would even let you take food out of his mouth.
He was the most wonderful companion and I will miss him forever.

Debbie Randolph

I miss you everyday

Amy Huntington

To my love, Lexi-loo, you were taken away too soon , and your sister Ruby and I and your daddy will miss you forever and always have you in our hearts..I hope you have a great time chasing balls in heaven ...I love you and miss you so much!!!

Stephanie Goldfarb

Lexi was the best dog in the world. She got me through a lot of tough stuff in my life. And without her, I probably wouldnt have been here today. So i am thankful that she did get to come in to my life..even if it was just for a short while :(

Samantha Fisher

After a full life and giving life to four litters of puppies, my little Lexi could no longer fight the tumors which were invading everywhere.

Her vet did what she could and Lexi lived eight months longer than either the vet or I thought she would.

Rest at the Bridge now, my little mommydog.
You can play with Taffy until the time I get there.

Dennis Duffner

Our dear sweet Lexi "Mama",

You will never know how much joy and happiness you brought to our lives. We never thought that your life would end so quickly. Although you are in a better place now, your spirit and energy will be missed here on Earth. We love you so much, Lexi, and will never ever forget you. You were a wonderful dog and friend. We never thought a heart could be so big! We love you baby! Pray for us cause we'll be praying for you!
All our love,
Mommy, Daddy, Rocky & Hogan

He was such a good dog. Had had a problem with a collasped trachea. I loved and cared for him from the time he was a puppy. Saturday just was a rough coughing episode for him. I wanted his pain to stop.It was one of th hardest things to do butI know that he knew his fate was safest in my arms. Goobye Lexi. I love you and you are not gone from heart.

Beth Hall

Lexi, the newest little kitty angel at the bridge.
We miss you terribly and not a day goes by that we don't recognize what a special soul you are.
We will always be together bonded
by love and you will always be in my heart and head.
You were meant for me and now you will share your love and compassion with the world.

I love you darling!

Teri Friedler

We rescued Lexi 2 weeks before Christmas 2006. She was left on a box in the doorway at NSAL in NY. She was 15 years old ++ She gave a brave battle against colon/rectal cancer. We ended her misery today. How I miss her. The last 7months have been the best. No regrets. I wished I had more time with her!

Karen & Scott Curtis

My little Lexi was the sweetest, most loving dog I've ever known.

Anne

Lexi...alias Bitch.....you were with us just a short while but you left us with a Miracle born 04/02/06...I hope you are running with "CB" please give him my love...you both are missed sooooooo much!
Please wait for me at the bridge as I long to see you both again in eternity!

Mom, Lauren, Jen & Danielle Bifulco

My beloved Lexi, who will forever remain in my memory. He was the sweetest brightest little dog that I knew. His unwavering love of everyone will be missed
We miss you "Dr Barker"
Jessica, Adam, Monika, Mom & Dad, Steven, Wayne & all the EMS family that knew you

To my big girl, my companion, and my protector, I miss you so much.
I don't know what caused your death as you were very much alive when I left to go to the store.
The shock of your death saddened me as I lost my furbaby.
I cherished you and loved you with all my heart and always will.
I hope you are at peace knowing that we will meet someday at the Rainbow Bridge.

Viola Lee

I lost my best Lab the day before.
We went to 7 shelters; this was our last stop.
My "barker of great annoyance" needed a new buddy...she had never been alone.
Each rescue stop we made was a disaster...she either hated them or feared them.
We found Lexi by accident; she actually chose us. She had a wonderful life, with a warm bed, freedom to roam in and out all day, a large yard to romp in, and many, many gentle walks in the neighborhood.
I knew she was getting old, her chocolate face turning to grey, much like a raccoon. She had a minor heart problem, then a kidney problem, then a few lumps and bumps, but she was a trooper, and she remained a fighter until the end.
I wasn't ready to let her go; I doubt anyone truly is. But when her lungs began to fill with fluid, and there was no hope, I knew I had to let her go.
Suffering was not something I could allow.
Each of my dogs has been, and is, special in their own way.
But Lexi was here the longest, fought the hardest, and gave so much to me and to others.
With a broken heart I said goodbye, but not a day goes by that I don't "hear" her footsteps, or see her coming my way.
The pain of loss is great, but the pain of her suffering would have been greater.
Thank you, my Lexi, for 12 wonderful years.
My superbowl dog, my "snotty with your sisters" dog, and now my angel.
I will always remember you.

Jeanne Keating

Lexie was the fiercest and most beautiful friend a girl could ever have.
From her humble beginnings in a Manhattan junk yard, she rose above adversity and was an inspiration to our family.
Our hearts are heavy today but we will always remember her strength and unique character.

Elizabeth Heelan

Lexie, We miss you. With every breath.
Your life of joy left us a legacy of love.Two years have passed yet it seems you were just here. How we wish you were here. Two years is as hard as the first day without you. Love
Mommie and Feathie.

lexie me and daddy will miss you say hi from us to muppy and greta

Betty Dodson

She was just a little bundle of black furry energy when I first saw her. It was love at first sight. So Lexie came into our home and our hearts. She loved everyone. Thought that company came to see her - not us. She was a helpmate through the years, nurturing and mothering orphan and abandoned animals. Then one day, she got her own pet, Bandit the orphaned kitten. Even though Lexie was getting quite elderly by this time, Bandit brought out the puppy that still resided in her heart. They spent hours stalking one another which usually ended up with this 50 pound dog tusseling, wrestling, and rolling all over the house with a 4 pound kitten. When Bandit died unexpectedly, Lexie was heart-broken. I think she died of a broken heart today. I found her lying on the doggie pillow she shared with Bandit many a night. We laid Lexie to rest beside her best friend Bandit. I think somewhere in Heaven, Lexie and Bandit are back at what they did best - love one another and spend countless hours together enjoying life from one minute to the next.

Rest in Peace, Lexie and Bandit.
You are both sorely missed and will
remain a part of me for the rest of my days.

Sharon Becker

The sweetest girl in the world left us today. She will be missed.

Cecelia Smith

I miss both of you so much.
I know you are together and probably giving some dogs a hard time!!!

Laurin Heineman

Lexus,
We still love and miss you.
You were one of the greatest friends I've ever had.
We hold your memory close to out hearts, always.

Erin

Lexy - I love you you are truly missed here, I know your pain free and happy though.
My heart aches for your beautiful brown eyes, telling me how much you appreciated a home,
I just wish I would have given a life that you deserved. You were my friend before my kids came back home and you were there at the end

I just wish i would have spent time with you.
Wait for me I'll be looking for you at the bridge.
I miss you, thank you for your unconditional love and friendship.

Stephanie Merton

Great Friend, Gentle, Caring.
Love ya, Lexy.

Tyler Smith

I only know one thing for sure ... if there's a heaven, Lexy is probably dissapointed in the food being served.

Karen Lamelle

Thank you so much for being in my life.
I loved you and love you still, always my little fuzz.
Be happy now and healthy

Nick

Liam:
My perfect kitty. There is no words for me to explain how I feel about losing you. You were my best friend and the best counselor in the world. Now that you are gone I have no one to cry on, laugh to, and share stories with. I will truly miss cuddling with you and holding you and having you wake me up in the middle of the night for "good stuff". I will miss your meow and the smell of your fur, and the long anticipation of seeing your face after I've been gone for a few days. I will feel that anticipation for the rest of my time and hope to see you as soon as I get there. Just know you were my beloved pet and now my gaurdian angel; I love you now and always.

Mommy (Kim)

My beloved kitty Liam was run over by a car this morning and became an angel. He was still greiving the passing of his sister Katie on 10/9/07 and he went to find her. The rainbow bridge now has two beautiful angels that have a piece of my heart for eternity.
Laura

Ohhhh Libby...
You were always such a good bahhbeeee girl..
We all miss you so much...
Your tail whipping against just about everything near you even during your outwardly annoying good dreams - dreams which seemed to always occur sooo very early in the morning...
These things are what we will miss most.. You never demanded much, always happy to get whatever you were given - never proud, always humble, that loving look in your eye, always first to forgive..
I am sorry if we ever disappointed you..
Oh yes you were the first puppy for daughters Allie and Katie - it's hard for them to show it, but they do miss you so...
Big sister to daughter Brianna who always seemed to show you the most love...
Your companion in crime during the later years in life, sister Jazz the Doberman, who is also not the same since you left us..
Her heart broken yet not able to understand - please be there for her when her time comes..
Your joined in heaven by your friend in paw "Tessie" the dobermnan who passed almost 3 years to your date - remember how I cried on you when that happened?
I am sure she was waiting for you on the other side of the bridge..
May the two of you always play in happiness and love eachother in death as much as we loved you in life.
Forever and ever...

Life is short but souls are everlasting..

Hate that your gone...
So happy you were here..

Love,

Dad

Labs are angels sent from heaven to help the weary souls..

We will always love you, Libby Bear.
Until we meet again...

Libby (0ur "dibber dibs")

We loved you so much! You were the best cat in the world -- sweet, funny -- our baby! We will miss you so very much.

Sandy, John, Jarred and Faith

Libby was the best thing we ever got from Walmart. She was in the back of a pickup one day as we were leaving the store. She was so adorable, all white, with cinnamon colored ears, and big dark eyes. Our hearts just melted when we saw her, so we stayed and waited for the owner of the pickup.
Their were several puppies in the back with Libby, as it turned out, she's the only one that didn't have a home.
We brought her home to join our other 2 pets, Chelsea and Norton.
She just fit right in.
Libby wasn't much for playing, but she did like to "talk".
She seemed to think that everyone that came over, came to see her, and she would verbally greet them all.
She was so wonderful with our granddaughters when they were babies.
When they were learning to walk, sometimes they would grab a big handful of fur to pull up, she never minded, just licked their little hands.
Libby and Chelsea would take turns watching the girls as they slept.
One dog would sleep in their doorway, the other in the hall.
If the girls woke up, one of the dogs would always come get me.
Everything Libby did, she learned from Chelsea, our other dog.
Last year when we lost Chelsea, Libby would just walk around crying and wailing. I've never seen an animal mourn the way she did, and it was heartbreaking. It was after Chelseas death, that Libbys health began to decline.
If we even mentioned Chelseas name, Libby would start crying, it was like she was lost without her.
As sad as we are to lose Libby, I'm happy that she, Chelsea, and Norton, the cat, can all be together again, waiting for us to join them.
Libby, you were loved so very much, and will be in our hearts forever.

Lou and Donna Marino

Libby, you were our couch potato ans so sweet. I can't believe you are gone even though your eyes told us that it was time. We tried to keep you with us as long as we could, but you knew it was time to say good-bye. We will be looking for you when our time comes so you can greet us with your mom Gem and you your brother Max and sister Sam. We love you and you will be in our heart forever.

Marilyn and Jack Stewart

Libby you were the best!
Who is going to great when I come home tonight?
See you at the Bridge, please wait for us!

Phil and Pam Brown

goodbye Miss Libby. Thank you for so many years of happiness and joy.
I will miss you.

Bonny

Sweet girl, now you can road. There is nothing to stop you now. We miss you. We adopted another dog. A homeless one, he is good to your boys. We named him Shadow as he has to forever follow in your Shadow. He'll take care of them here, you wait for them there. Pretty Libby, we love you.

Jenn

You were the sweetest dog I ever had.
Though I was only blessed to have you seven months, they were wonderful months.
You will live in my heart forever, Libby.
See you at the Rainbow Bridge with Maggie and Lily.

Lisa Lobstein

We love you Libby. We will always love you and we will never forget you. Thank you for being such a great dog, daughter, and sister.
You were the best and will be greatly missed.
Justy loves you and misses you. We look forward to the day we will reunite and see you sitting pretty for us in Heaven. Have fun chasing the tennis ball and catching frisbees.

Matt, Kathy and Heather Terry

Love that dog,
With all the love in the world
I said I love that dog
With all the
love in the world
Love to call her in the morning,
“Hey there, girl!”

Inspired by Sharon Creech and Walter Dean Myers.
My heart aches for my girl, I just miss her so much.

Marianne Costello

My beloved Liberty passed unexpectedly on December 28, 2006.
She was a happy, loving soul with a cheerful disposition and heart of gold.
My heart is truly broken for her loss.
She gifted me with a loudly thumping tail as she took her final journey yesterday morning.
She was my best friend and shadow - helper of all tasks around the house - a welcome friend for walks and sunshine and car rides.
I miss you my beloved girl.

Sharon McGuire

You will always be with me forever in my heart. Thank you for loving me. I will always treasure our time together. I will be waiting for my "welcome home" dance when I see you again. Until then, you will always be your mama's little girl.

Betty Reed

Tomorrow marks one year... I LOVE YOU ALWAYS, BOOI!

Peg Kishel

Lickity was such a silly boy, he would lay on his back on the couch and wait for you, or his brothers and sisters to "get him". I miss him!

Angie Allen

Our hearts broke today as we said goodbye to you.
We love you more than words can say.
You were such a special little girl.
Rest in peace, our Licorice.

Lauren

My little furry baby.
A wonderful greeter who will be missed every time we come back into the house.
We love you.

Chris Moore

Licos was a rescue from Massachusetts we got when he was only 2 years old. He'd been purchased by a man who wanted to make a K-9 out of him but when he didn't catch on quick enough, he was severely abused and pistol whipped. We got him and rehab'd him.He became a loving part of our canine family. He came to us with kidney disease due to severe malnutrition and we knew we'd lose him someday to that. That day has come; we miss him terribly.He was an awesome presence in our lives.

Loreen E. Maloney

Tenny, I love you and miss you so much.
Your bright, assertive little spirit, your chatty little voice, the way you would always sleep at the foot of my bed like a little sentinel.
I've never cried as hard, in my entire life, as I did on the day we had to have the veterinarian gently send you to heaven when you had become too sick to live comfortably and with dignity.
I still weep for you, and I will remember you forever, my little "tough guy" friend.
Save me a spot in heaven, Ten - I'll be so glad to see you again someday.
The first thing I'll do, after hugging and kissing you about a million times, will be to give you your favorite treat:
canned chopped clams. I know you'll be a good boy until then.
You always were such a good boy.
Heaven is an even better place for having you there.
I love you, sweetheart.
Mom

She was not very brave, as watchdogs go, but loyal, loving and intelligent with a great sense of dignity as well as humor. I treasure the memory of our 11 years together.

Mary McKinley

I will miss you, you were truely a wonderful boy and I will miss you.

Linda Berkley

My Dear Sweet Light Orange,
I can not believe I have lost you. I only had you for 3 and a half years. This seems so unreal to me and could not have happened at a worst time. You were so much fun to love. You truely were a happy cat, always loving me back the way I loved you. I was always so glad to see you, you gave me great joy. I always worried about you and the street and now my worst fears have come true. I wonder how I will continue on without you, I am so very sad. The hurt goes deep, you were too young and full of life to die. I have cried for almost 24 hours now and just when I think I can't cry anymore the tears come back. I can't eat, barely force myself to drink, I feel so empty. I ask God why, why, why? I can not hear his answer. I pray you did not suffer, I am so sorry my dear sweet little Light Orange. I will LOVE YOU FOREVER and I will never forget you. We will meet again. I will see you at the bridge. Love, Your Mom(Susie)

EVEN THO WE HAVE ONLY HAD YOU FOR ONLY 5 YEARS, YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND. PLEASE BE WAITING FOR ME AT THE
BRIDGE FOR ME SWEETIE. MOMMY LOVES YOU BABY AND THANKS ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME. PLEASE RUN AND PLAY WITH ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS AND BROTHERS SISTERS. WE WILL BE THANKING OF YOU ALL OF THE TIME. YOU HAVE LEFT A BIG HOLE IN MY HEARTS BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT YOU ARE IN A MUCH BETTER PLACE AWAY FROM PAIN. A MOTHER HOLDS HER BABY'S HAND A LITTLE WHILE, BUT IN HER HEART FOREVER.

I LOVE YOU HONEY,

YOUR LOVING FAMILY,

MOMMY, DADDY, AND FAMILY.

We'll always remeber you and love you. You are in our hearts. We miss you so much, you are so special for us. We still have three cats.

Rosalba Monterrosas

Lightning...you came into my life while I held you from birth and you left peacefully in my arms but you will never leave my heart. We enjoyed 10 very good years together but now the good Lord has called you home to be with your pal Shady and his dad Briar. We will be reunited again in spirit someday so be happy again now that you are no longer suffering. Love you lots... Mom

Stray austalian shepherd mix was hit by a car on the night of may 17th 2007.Everyone who knew her tried to rescue her but she was a frightend dog who was stray for a year and a half everyone who knew her will miss her.

I love you so much and I miss you so much it hurts.
We WILL meet again and I will have the biggest hug and kiss waiting for you.
Love you, your Momma

Dear Lil' Bit (aka: Elly) Thank you for all the years we spent together. Words cannot describe the love we all have for you. Your friendship and love were gifts from above. We will miss pampering you but know that in heaven you will have even more. We now know that you are with your girl Chocolate and are at peace. Knowing that you no longer have pain offers us much relief. Yesterday when we came back from helping you along your journey the dove that sat on the tree branch was a sign of peace. We miss you and love you forever.

Love,

Momma, Mommy and Sky

A wonderful friend and companion, 11 years as a therapy dog, a great guy overall.
He loved playing with the sprinkler and his laser light.
He loved to eat things that got him into trouble, but we loved him anyhow.
Our first attempt at breeding produced a winner, in many ways.
We will miss you Boo, but never forget or stop loving you.
All the others who have gone before will welcome you, and we will, one day, see you at the Raibbow Bridge.
Love, Mom and Dad

I really miss my little Lil Bit.
She was the runt of the litter but had a heart the size of Texas.
When you would pick her up her eyes were filled with love and she would give you endless kisses.
She was diagnosed with PDA.
This is a condition where a valve does not close when the puppy starts to breath on it's own and it causes congestive heart failure.
I took her to the Vet on a Thursday because she was having trouble breathing and she died on Friday, the 13th.
I had to take my mare to southern Ohio to be bred and I was afraid to go home because I knew she wasn't going to make it.
When we go home, Mom and big brother were at the gate but not Lil Bit.
We found her in her favor place to sleep and in her normal sleeping position.
She apparently kied in her sleep.
She almost didn't make it when she was born and there was one night when she didn't seem like she was going to make it through the night.
I held her for about 5 hours.
Every time she seemed like she was slipping, I would wake her up.
She would give me a kiss and go back to sleep.
This time I wasn't there to wake her up.
She wasn't very old but she really connected to my heart.
I miss her very, very much.
I love you and miss you LIl Bit.
You will alway hold a big place in my heart.

Sheila Harkness

LIL BIT WAS A LIL BIT OF A KITTY THAT GREW INTO A BIG KITTY KAT, THE BESTEST EVER!!! EVERYONE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THOUGHT HE WAS THE KING OF THE HOOD. HE WAS BEAUTIFUL AND LOVED. I LOVE YOU LIL BIT!!!!!

Tricia Lozano

She was brave to the last moment, and went to sleep with no pain, no worry as her companion held her and stroked her.

I will return at a later date with a true obit.

Gail Simon

We loved you and we are sorry.

Amanda Ferrer and Peter Wilson

I have loved you for 19 years, and i will never stop.
miss you big guy.

Shelley Sylvestre

Liliah,

I hope that your life was happy.
I'm so sorry that you got sick.
You were so pretty and shy.
I'm glad you did not have to spend your life as a feral, and instead enriched our lives with your beauty.

Love, your shelter friends

Lilja was the most wonderful kitty anybody could ever have. She was a lot like a dog; she followed us around the house and licked our faces. I cannot tell you how many times she woke me up by licking my face and kneeding my neck and check just trying to wake me up. She was the sweetest kitty and I would do anything for her to still be here.

My mom rescued her from a kill-shelter in the fall of '04, and ever since then she's been a enormous part of my heart. Everytime I think of her I laugh. She was always there when I was sad, just licking my face. I would lay there at night just petting her. She was always by my side.

One day I realized that she wasa really sick. She had lost a lot weight, and she didn't want to eat. She also threw up a few times a day and it got worse and worse. She was barely even able to purr anymore. :( I was there almost constantly for my kitty, knowing that she as sick. I constantly sat next to her, petting her, trying to treat her the best I could. Every now and then she would actually purr, and it was a miracle because most of the time it seemed like she was in too much pain to purr. I remember trying to give her her favorite canned cat food, and she would meow like she always did, which meant, "give me it!" but she sniffed it and wouldn't eat it! :'( We are guessing she had cancer, and had to put her down.

I will never forget her. She was the best and she really cheered me up whenever I was down. I would come home from school stressed out and upset sometimes, and she would be there for me, purring and licking my face. Sometimes she would even lick away my tears. I really love her and I will never ever stop thinking about all the good times I had with her.

Me and my mom rescued two new kittens yesterday, who were destined to be put down. My mom said that she thinks Lilja would appreciate it, and if her spirit comes around she may think of the kittens as her little kittens. We don't know if cat's spirits really come around but we decided to put out treats every now and then just in case. I even caught myself calling her name a minute ago hoping that she would hear me. It's hard to believe that she is gone.

I love you Lilja and I will always remember you.

:(

Bethany Hoernfeldt

Min älskade Lilleman, du var en så speciell liten iller, du föddes döv men det skulle man inte tro när man så dig. Du var alltid snäll, bet aldrig och du ville helst vara vän med allt och alla. Du hade ändå Aslan som aldrig ville acceptera dig riktigt, ni kivade ibland, men mest gick du bort ifrån honom om han var på kive humör. Du var alltid den som vaknade först och ville komma upp till mig och sova, och du var alltid välkommen i min säng. Du var aldrig som dom andra som vill nippsa och bita i mina tår, du la dig alltid på huvudkudden och sov ofta där ett par timmar. Jag saknar dig så otroligt mycket, och jag gråter när jag tänker på dig. Du är nu uppe hos Dino, Aslan, Ronja och hennes dotter Musca. Jag hoppas att vi ses igen vid Rainbow Bridge en gång, under tiden får du busa med dom andra.

Sov i ro gubben.

Mamma

A sweet, loyal ,& intelligent friend.
She had a love of life and a sense of humor and had a wonderful presence to her.
Lilli was diagnosed with feline Asthma at the age of two and managed the illness for two years.
Lilli will not be forgotten and will forever be in my heart

Sharon Galloway

My Dearest Lilli
You have been the dearest love of my life.
Not only a dog, but best companion and friend ever.
You are now free of the disease that weakened you.
Enjoy the warmth and love and feeling of a renewed youth in your new world.

Know I will miss you every day and love you forever.
You are my "foo foo".
Kisses and Hugs...

LILLI BEAN was rescued from a shelter. we only had her since may. she was the most loving animal i have ever come across. She loved to groom everybody and sleep with us. I will miss her until the day I die

Tama C Merrell

Lillie was a very special cat.
She always was there to greet me at the door when I came home from work.
She enjoyed just being a lap cat.
Just laying with me and always slept in my bed.
She was a real friend.
I really miss her, I still have other cats I adore, but there will only ever be one Lillie.

Scott Ewing

Lillie goes to be with Nicci and Molly her old friends. We know she will be happy romping again with them. We shall miss her greatly, but we could not have her forever. She lived a full and quite healthy life right up to the end. She played and barked and had a walk even on her last day on this earth - what a way to go. We will always love and think of you, dear LillieLab.

Natalie & Warren

Lille came into my life at a time whe my life was not an easy one. Sher came with her sister, millie, and together they lived side by side with my best friend ever Ginger (rabbit) They were a very happy family and when ginger died they grieved for a long time.
For two years I had only them for company
Then buster arrived. Theye adored him.

Then millie died.
The vet was not sure of what but she did her best for millie. Millie passed in her sleep in june and was instanly miseed by Lillie.

Lillie grieved for her sister for months. Buster took good care of her but he could not take her place.

Then two weeks ago lillie sudddenly lost weight. The vet found she had an enlarged kidney and suspected cancer. I gave lillie lots of cuddles and nice food and fr a while she recovered. Then one day I noticed she was wet underneath. The vet found that both of her kidneys had tumours so A difficult desicion was made.

She never asked for anything and never misbehaved. she was perfect.

Heather

We will miss our baby girl so much, we had her since she was born, our constant companion, just like one of our kids.
Sit up pretty and roll over, that was her. We truly loved her, Marilyn and Mike

It is with tremendous and overwhelming sadness that we share the news that we lost our lovely Lilli Sunday night.
She died of neurological complications exacerbated by aspiration pneumonia.
We were with her at the end, and she was ready to go.
But we are broken hearted.
She was an elegant and silly dog, with the biggest heart.
She started each day with wiggles of pure joy.
She loved to cuddle and play--and adored her Mason and her family.
The house is so empty without our gentle giant.
The joy she brought into our lives in the all too short four and a half years she shared with us is immeasurable.
We will miss her always and be so very grateful for the time we had together.
She was simple and beautiful.
She loved people and considered everyone she met to be her good friend and playmate.

Please go look at her memorial slide show.

Its now been 2 weeks since you left me and I still can not believe that you have gone and that I was the one who had to make the decision. My beautiful Lilly I wish I had just one more day with you to tell you all that I forgot to say in your final moments. That I love you and miss you and will always carry you with me in my heart. Until we meet again my beautiful Lillygirl I wish you sunshine and happiness ... I love you xxxxx

Katie Gale

With so much personality and charm she has passed on remaining in the hearts of those lives she has touched so deeply.

Nicole

Our Sweet Lilly Bean,
We miss you with all of our hearts and it is extremely hard to believe that you are no longer here. However, the cancer is no longer causing you any pain and that provides us with some comfort. Your life was far too short, but you taught us about courage, strength and loyalty. We will miss the always wagging tail and your sweet, loving eyes. We will see you at the bridge, Bean.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Fenway & Jack

My little Lilly Girl, I was not ready to let you go, I'm sorry I was away, I feel guilty for what appened to you. You were such an independent little one. I was always so proud of you for being so tough and a good leader, teacher, comforter and best friend. Always, always there for me for 14 years. Bright big brown eyes and perked ears. I hope you are in a wonderful place and I hope I will see you again, oh how I love you baby girl! Please forgive me and Peanut for the accident, let me know you forgive me, and Peanut, we are so lost without you. I wish I could hold you again, and be comforted by you on the sofa every night, all for now sweet pea. Kissy,kissy, love you...always, mommy

I love you soo much, Lilly! I'm so very sorry I waan't with you at the very end, but I knew the last time I was with you that you were saying goodbye to me by crawling into my lap even though it was so hard for you.

I feel very guilty that I didn't realize you were so sick and I'm soo sorry, Lilly! I think of you constantly and only hope that the 9 years we had together were mostly very happy for you. I know they were for me.

I will see you soon, Lilly...and you can lie on my lap as long as you want. Please know how much I love and miss you...your brothers and sisters miss you also.

Mom and the other furbabies

Lilly,
You were a very beautiful bird.
I miss your beautiful song.
We miss you very much.
Achoo misses your friendship.
We look forward to seeing you again someday.
Fly free little birdie!
We love you and miss you.

Jennifer, Lauren, Olivia, CJ and Achoo

OUR sweet Lilly,

You brought such a bright glow of light into our lives.
You were always there with a toy to greet us and took such good care of your daddy when he was sick.
All the special things you did we will never forget.
The house is so empty without you but we know that it was GOD's time and he needed a special girl to help out.
You will NEVER be forgotten.
I can still see you waiting at the top of the hill. Our hearts will never be the same.
Your Mommy and Daddy love you so much and your memory will live on.
WE LOVE YOU OUR SWEET LITTLE GIRL!

Although my precious Lilly was with us for such a short time she brought so much joy into our lives.
We learned so much from her.
Mommy & Daddy miss you so much baby girl.
My life is so empty without you.
We will see eachother again at the bridge and mommy is going to be so happy to see your beautiful face once again.
Although you left me 2 days ago it feels like it was today.
Your furbrother and fursister miss you so much too.
I miss your kisses in the morning and this weekend will be the first weekend without you.
I'm not going to have those kisses in the morning anymore.
I know you want mommy to be strong baby but I just can't right now.
I want you back.

Love you Lilly

Glorivette Santos & Alex Morales

Jacquie Penn

Lilo the beagle was Marcy and Octavio's little guy who came into their family 3 years ago.
He was the little guy who ate and ate.
He would love to run and howl to get your attention.
He was the little escape artist.
His pals Sally and Homer will truly miss him always.
But we know that he is with his buddies Meeko and Bella.
We will truly miss you Gordito!!
We love you always.

Rossana

She was a sweet little dog and we loved her very dearly. She is missed so much by all of us.

Sara and Rod

For ten and a half years you shared my life, accepting me as I am-- never once telling me I had grieved long enough over Doug and needed to "move on", or that I crabbed too much about my job or the weather. Never once did you make me feel guilty for not walking you enough or tossing the ball another time. You saved me in uncountable little ways, and in the end there was no way to save you-- except in my heart-- my dear little girl. Mama loves you.

My baby girl, I had you for 10 1/2 glorious years. They were certainly not enough time. You died so suddenly this morning, that I still find it hard to believe that you are gone.
You will never be gone from my heart, and I will miss you every day for the rest of my life.

Iris Lynch

Li-Maus, I love you and I miss you.

Christina Ciszek

Lily was only in our lives for 11 months but she changed them for the better.
She was the funniest, liveliest cat we have ever seen.
Chasing bees, butterflies and leaves all round the garden.
Lily loved life.
She went out for her usual stalking session and never came home.
She had been hit by a car.
She is buried at her favourite spot in the garden where she can see all the birds!
We loved her, and she loved us...unconditionally.
"She was never meant to stay.
She touched our lives and went away."

Caroline and Chris

BABY MAMA LOVES U AN MISSES U SO MUCH...

Colleen

Thanx for all the wonderful times-you will always be remembered and loved. Till we meet again....
All our Love!

Jessica

I adopted Lily in Feb.
She was a pound dog.
She had been used as a breeder in a puppy mill operation.
Lily had mange, was mostly blind, and had been dumped when she could no longer have puppies.
She was about 11 years old, and she broke my heart.
I took her and she lived with me for about six months.
She was well fed, and loved, but her past life took its toll on her.
She passed in her sleep on her green pillow.

I don't know who she will look for at the Rainbow Bridge, but The Creator must have a special place for a little white dog.
I miss you, Lily.

Love, Jane

Lily was my little baby.
We called her our cuddle bug because she loved to cuddle.
Right now i can't imagine every day now without her.
She was a red dachshund with long floppy ears and her coat was as soft as feathers. I will never forget her.
I love you Lily.

Lisa Miller

Scott and I (your Mommy and Daddy) miss you greatly.
I know you're having fun.
Don't catch too many mice or you'll get a tummy ache.
Your cousin Ziti is a rambuctious little devel and misses you also.
One day we'll all be together.

Lisa and Scott Van Leer

Lilly,
We love you and miss you so much.
You were such a wonderful dog.
I wish you did not have to go but I know you are in a better place and so much happier.
I know you here me talk to you every day telling you how much you are missed.
The house is so empty without you.
We will all be together again someday.
For now please be happy and play with all your friends.

Mommy, Daddy and your brother and sisters

This little girl came into our lives about two years ago from a rescue shelter and stole our hearts.
She was playful with her brother Stitch and was a handful.
We was so small however she could get into more things before you knew it.

John, Michael and Jeremy Reinert

Lily was a special girl; sweet natured, loved everyone she met, and she made us laugh.
She was a tiny girl, weighing in at only 3 pounds, and always daintily crossed her paws while laying down.
She was like a toddler~easily distracted, enthusiastic, and had a definite bedtime!
By 9pm, she wanted to be held and cuddled so she could sleep.
She was greedy with food and loved treats of any kind!
When I first got her, she had been misrepresented; she was mangy, underweight, NOT housebroken like I was told, desperately needed dental care, and had a seizure disorder.
We looked past all of that and saw a sweet, lovable dog who was always happy to be picked up and petted by anyone who was willing; it took about 6 months before she showed any preference to me! When she died, she was a playful, loving little girl who left behind many broken hearts.
I will miss putting her to bed with my daughter, then having her come out from under Shannon's covers to greet me when I went to bed; I will miss having her curl up against my belly at night only to slowly creep her way up under my chin to share the pillow; I will miss the kisses she gave to let me know she wanted out in the morning, and the swipes to the nose from an impatient paw if I was too slow in moving.
I will miss kissing her goodbye in the morning and have her willingly get in her crate, waiting for praise; I will miss the tail-wagging, I'm-so-glad-to-see-you! Greetings she gave when I got home from work.
I will miss the cuddle time on the couch; the faint puppy smell despite being an adult dog; throwing the squeaky toys across the living room over and over; picking up the rocks, sticks, rotten apples, and other various treasures and offerings she left at the back door.
We only had her in our lives for a year, but we were so blessed to have her bring so much joy, laughter and kisses into our household.
Our little Lily will be fondly remembered and sadly missed.

Kimberly and Shannon Eliason

Nearly 16 years in our home...but an absolute lifetime in our hearts...We miss your kisses and wags and everyday is lonely without you. We really miss you our special crazy old lady.

The Simpson Family

I love you with every bit of my heart, my sweet girl.
It's too hard to believe that you will never be around for another walk or another chance for me to rub those crazy ears of yours.
I wish I had known our last goodbye was the last goodbye.
Not a second has passed that I haven't thought of you, you'll be in my heart forever.
I love you, little girl.

Cara

Lily...I miss you so much.
I just wish I could have said goodbye and pent more time with you.
I will never forget you.
Even if we find it's time to get another dog, you will always be the best dog in the world.
I love you so much.

Katie

Lily was a dear little dog who was taken way too soon. Will be especially missed by her doggy friend Joe.

T. Pettet

She was the sweetest dog and so loving.

Deborah Haas

Lily,

You were my joy, your were my laughter and love of life. I'll miss you for all the days of my life to come. Your are missed so much, i can't stand not kissing and hugging you. lily, rest in piece my sweet dog. i love you

Kerry Stark

When we brought you home Lily,we thought we'd have forever . Now my heart is broken and I miss you and love you. The shock of your sudden death is overwhelming but I take comfort in knowing that you've met up with Sophie and will both be waiting for me some day.

Gracie

Dear Lily, my sweetie,
I am sorry for any and all of your suffering, I have been too attached and selfish, please forgive me. I miss you so much- even giving you the insulin shots and trying to keep you from drinking the christmas tree water! I miss your soft fur, the soothing tone of your purrs, and how you'd snuggle with us for bed each night! God forbid if we were reading before bed and you wanted attention- how you'd move your head under the book and sneak up to our faces! Words can't say just how much I love you, and how hard it was today to let you go, and how hard it will continue to be. I have been blessed to have gotten the best kitten 17 years ago. You will always have a special place in my life and heart that no animal or human could ever have. I love you, I hope you are painlessly frolicking with Wendy and Magic, drinking as much tree water as you want, or rolling around in freshly cleaned sheets!

F. Villa

You gave us many laughs and love in your life. We will miss you dearly.

Love Mom and Elise

lily and buttons were two little bunnies that everyone loved and there still do they were the cutest little rabbits ever they died when they were just 4 months old you are missed badly and will always be remembed !

x i'll always love you girls

Bekah

You poor girls. I'm glad you're at peace now. Lily I remember that weekend when I picked you up to put you on the couch with me to snuggle and I heard something crack and then I saw you limping. I'm so sorry. I left you alone to go sleep on your bed. Rosi I didn't like having to put a diaper on your tiny little frame but after it was on, you looked up and smiled at me. I know you didn't like messing in the house. Lily I remember tying to teach you flyball but couldn't get you to go over those silly jumps. You'd retrieve that ball for hours though, your tongue hanging a mile out the side of your mouth. Rosi I remember us on my bed, under the covers, both of us shaking when we heard that thunder. We kept each other calm. I remember you two being scared of my fatty pig when I put him on the kitchen floor to walk around. Lily, you sniffed him and he jumped and you ran in the other direction. Rosi, you thought he was a toy and wagged your tail so fast while trying to play with him. Well, he's up there too so you can play, but play nice. You two were the best girls I could have ever asked for. I'm so sorry I was away for so long these last few years. And I'm so thankful you both stuck it out just a little bit longer so that I could come home and say goodbye. Mum and I love you so much and you'll always be missed. Goodbye girls.

Angie and Mum

My dearest Lil Lil, I miss you so much. God truly blessed me when I found you. I send you my love everyday. Till we meet again my beloved friend.

Samantha Marino

Thank you for the 12 years of love you gave to us, little one.
We didn't want to let you go but moreso, we didn't want you to suffer.
You touched many people in your short, little life.
You will always be remembered with great love and appreciation.
Be at peace, my little one.

Ruth Zurawka & Jim Tauberg

Lincoln, even though it has been almost five years we think of you every day.
You'll always be in our hearts, Gentle Giant.

Brent & Liz Long

Lincoln was only part of our family for a short time. He was a beautiful little blessing.
We bid him so long and look forward to our reunion at the bridge. He lives on in our hearts.

Starr Craft

I didn't want to let you go but the thought of ur pain just wouldn't let me be. I new it was the right thing to do..but why when it was right does it feel so wrong.. and still so hard.. you promised me forever but forever came to soon. I am still waiting; I am still weeping; I am steel praying; I am still hoping. I am still waiting to see you; I am still waiting to hug you; I am still waiting to kiss you; I am still waiting for you. I am still loving you.

Words cant express what she meant to me. Not a day goes by that I don't think of her. Each day when I come home I still believe that I'm gonna find her at the door anxiously awaiting to greet me. She was amazing, the joy of my life, she was the best thing in my life. more than a pet.. she was my baby girl. I will forever miss you and i will take with me your lasting paw print in my heart. she gave me the best 2 yrs of my life and she spent those 2 years sharing love and joy with her forever family, leaving paw prints of special memories for ever in our heart. Gone but not forgotten. I love you!

Daisy

To my baby girl. You had such a hard start to life before you came to live with me. Chained to a car bumper and starving. But after we found each other you were never chained again nor hungry. You lost your eyesight but you were given all you ever wanted for the 12 years we were together. I miss you so much, but I know your whole again seeing everything around you and not in that old worn out body anymore. Until we meet again I love you forever.

Angie Olson

My Lindsey was 15 years old when he passed. He was my baby, my love and I miss him terribly.

Kara Elliott

We all loved you Lindsay. I would write more but I miss you so much and its too hard to think about.

Michael McDowell

My sister and I brought Lindsay home in October of 1989. She was 2 months old at the time. Over the years, I have been the one that always took care of her. Through high school and college, etc. I was always there for her. She always lived at my parents house from the time my sister and I brought her home until my parents sold that house and moved closer to me and my husband in 2003. I then had Lindsay because it was what I wanted - to care for her in her elder years and be there for her as I always had been. In the past year and a half, I had her to the Dr. Trent's office for a number of things - constipation, dehydration, etc. It was coming with her age. 3-1/2 weeks ago, I took her in to see the Dr. because I felt that she wasn't having a "good" day as I called it. She was diagnosed that day with kidney failure. My heart just sank. She was admitted that day to the hospital at the Vet's office. She stayed for 1 week and then I was able to bring her home. My husband and I gave Lindsay fluids on a daily basis - this was done with a needle/I.V. into her back - she needed the fluids to help her to stay alive. I had her back to the Vet's office last week because she wasn't eating hardly anything. She was then given pills to help her get her appetite back basically. They worked for a few days, then on Sunday...she didn't want to hardly touch her food. She began to get irritated by us giving her the fluids that she needed. She didn't want to come upstairs yesterday morning....she was falling into her water and could hardly hold her head up. This just crushed my heart so badly. My husband and I decided that it was her time to go because she was giving up. She was living for us, but not "living". My husband took her to Dr. Trent for me to have her put to sleep. I couldn't bring myself to do it - just couldn't go and do it. I do feel that she is in a much better place now. I told my 4 year old daughter that she is with God and is playing in the grass...up in the sky in the clouds with the rainbows. She says that Lindsay is in "Care A Lot"...a happy place. I loved Lindsay more than any pet that I have ever had. I was the one out of my family that was always there for her - always through her sickness and in her good times. She was the best cat ever. Such a beauty. A tortoiseshell manx - was with me for 17 and one half years. She would have been 18 years old in August of this year. I loved her dearly.

Karen Godfrey

My sweet Lindy.
I lost you on September 1st.
It was so hard to say goodbye.
The hardest thing I've ever done was making that decision.
Thank you for being there and sharing my lonely life.
You filled the house and my heart. My bunny. I miss your furry little face and beautiful green eyes.
I keep seeing you all over the house.
Only you're not there.
But I can feel you and pray that you're safe and happy now.
Save a place for me in heaven.

Mary Kay Wallace

A SPECIAL FRIEND

Daniella

Link was with us a very short time but we were blessed to have been able to share it with him. From the moment we adopted him to nearly the end, he purred whenever my son or I were near. He loved to cuddle. His two favorite places to be were under the covers with you or on your shoulder. If you didn't lift up the covers to let him in, he would push and burrow his way under. He would climb you just to get on your shoulder or in your arms. He was cat that really loved people and insisted on being near my son. If you tried to go somewhere in the house without him, he'd follow meowing his opinions the whole way. Link lost his brief but fierce battle with a terrible infection in the wee morning hours on November 9. We'll miss him.

Janet Holthaus and Son, Dan

Oh Linkin baby...I miss you so much. I wish I knew why you became so sick. I want you here with me so much right now I can't believe how much it hurts. I love you, Link. I wish I could've saved you, but I knew it had become your time and you needed your sleep. I was so afraid you would close your eyes and pass away without me at your side...but you waited for me. I would not allow you to be in any more pain or fear. It broke my heart to make that decision to let you go, and I could barely let go of you. I could barely leave you after you slipped way from this life.

I'm struggling so bad without you here. This is the only time where I can be so sad and you cannot be able to see me through it.

I love you baby...and I can't wait to see your again...in a much better place. I'll never forget you, Link. When my time comes, I'll meet you at the Bridge...

April

Link you will forever be in our hearts.
I miss you tremendously!
It's been months now and we even have a little pitter patter of new feet.
But I still think of you everyday and wish you were here to help raise the new pup.
I miss you, and Love you.
I hope you get to see Pepper up there!

Heather Wilburn

I miss you Linty....your time came to an end too quickly and you will be missed forever. You were my first pet and you will hold a very special place in my heart....I hope you are in a better place and no longer in pain. I remember being there when you were born....I remember how well trained you were, you wouldn't even pee anywhere but your litterbox, even if the door to the litter was closed accidently. You were the best damn cat ever and I really do not know how I will ever get over you....I miss you bunches and will love you forever. I miss your purr, your unique colouring, your mellow attitude and your snuggles....rest in peace

Meghan

Linus was the most special kitty that I have ever met. He took very good care of me and even saved my life more then once.
One day while I was upstairs in our home he came in meowing away, after a few seconds I decided to follow him only to find that a window fan down stairs was on fire. Another time I had collapsed and he went down stairs where my friend was waiting for me and got her to come upstairs to me.
Linus was always there for me, at the lowest times in my life when I was not sure that I even wanted to be in this world any more he was my reason for living.
I am not sure how to go on without him; the loss has left a void in my life that will never be filled again.
There just does not seem to be anything to go on for now that he is gone.
Linus I will love you forever, and miss you more then there are words to say.
It hurts to even breathe. Everyone who knew you is hurting and keeps saying what a very special kitty you were.

Diane Rodgers

Linus

Rest in Peace, Linus.
You were so filled with love and hope.
You were such a charming little boy.
We loved how you would sit up and wave your little paws in greeting.
You will always be missed and remembered and loved.

My constant companion, always at my side, slept on my pillow with me every night.
I had Lionel for 17 years and he was not a "pet" to me..he was a member of our family. He followed me everywhere, and if I left the house, he would be waiting at the door when I returned.
I will never be able to replace him.
He was a "one of a kind cat" that adored me and I adored him as well. He was known as "Mufasa" to the other cats in our home, who backed away when he went to the food and water bowls, and gave him the respect that he deserved...they waited in line for him to finish before they would approach the food/water. Knowing that he had severe arthritis in his back legs and could no longer jump on the bed to sleep with me...I feared he was in pain and could not be selfish enough to let him be in pain just so I could not have him with me.
Finally, On July 7, 2006, he entered into eternal sleep.
I still miss him daily, and know that there will never be another "Lionel"...ever.

It is with great sadness that we have to report the death of our Beloved Pet "Lisa".
She was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure in May of this year but she soldiered on throuth shortness of breath and fainting spells so that she could visit her favorite park.
Our Best Friend died at 9.30am on August 29th but she will live on in our hearts.

Maria and Michael Goglio

FOR ALMOST 7 YEARS, SHE HAS BEEN ILL FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS.LIFE WAS A STRUGGLE FOR HER. TODAY SHE WAS ATTACKED BY A LARGE DOG AND WAS IN CRITICAL CONDITION, WE TRIED EVERYTHING WE COULD TO KEEP HER HERE WITH US, BUT IT WAS HER TIME AND SHE NEEDED THE REST.
WE WILL MISS HER FOREVER.

We loved you very much

Ellen Kippel and Kenyon Donohew

In memory of the sweetest, most gentle Westie. A blessing to have in my life for 15 years. Losing you tore my heart in two, my best buddy who always tagged along with me, loved to hear me sing, and forever waved your paw. For all those years, you had my heart tucked in your paws, always pulling my heartstrings. We will always miss you, Little Bear! Until we meet again, rest well AngelBear!

Pat Malloy

Little Bismarque

Your life was too short.
I got to spend only 9 years with you and they will nort be forgotten.
You were the sweetest little yorkie I had and you will never be forgotten.

I will always love you and hope to see you again at Rainbow Bridge.

I miss you so much!

Love,
Mom

Little Bit was my little angel.
He came to me at a time in my life when all things seemed impossible.
He was a comfort and joy and my "little man" through thick and thin.
He is greatly missed!!

Maggie Wagner

We lost little bit on Friday the 26th due to what the doctors believe to be cancer. He was the most special little guy with big blue eyes. I'll miss him until I see him again. I just want him to know how very much he was loved and is missed terribly. Losing you was the hardest thing that's ever happened to me. You were and always will have a place in my heart. I love you B Dog.

Sarah Slusher

little bit will be greatly missed
the grief and hurt are so unbearable
when we lost her we lost a big part of our lives
we know someday we will be reunited.

Joni Sowers

To My Little Bit:

07/15/07

I love you with all my heart. You have given me years of great happiness. You put a smile on my face every day for all the years we were together, gave me comfort when I needed it, unconditional love and trust, and precious memories I will never forget. I cannot believe you are not here with me anymore, and the pain and sorrow is beyond words. The selfish part of me wishes you were here with me, and would do anything if I could make that possible, but it is not. I take comfort knowing you are not in any pain or suffering, and in God's loving hands, as the Rainbow Bridge says....til the day I see you again. What a wonderful day that will be. Thank you, Little Bit, for everything you have given me over the years, I love you little girl, so very much.

Love,

your "Mudder"

Kathy

I will miss you every second of every day, and will look forward with joy to the day we are together again...
You were a wonderful companion. and my dearest friend..
Sleep with the angels my little one..

Mickie Loonam

Thanks for giving me 19 years of love.
You will always be remembered.
Now....go run and play with all your friends.
Love,
Mom and Dad

Little Bit was out of a litter of 14.
She was the runt but survived.
She started sleeping with me at the age of 2 weeks and was always by my side.
I miss my constant companion and guardian.
I see her everywhere but she's not here.
She is MISSED GREATLY.
I LOVE U "Little Bit".

Jeannette Speyrer

Little Bit was my best buddy, a small dog who had so much personality and spunk.
She kept everyone in line, was my bed buddy and snuggler and she is so missed.

Rosemary Campbell

Little Buddy was a magical kitty. He came into my life and filled it with love and joy. I will never forget the feeling of him plopping down in my lap as though it was his spot. I will never forget the feeling of his tiny paws gently holding my face when I kissed his little face. I will never forget him dancing around me. Angel Buddy is for certain a magical kitty.

Thank you, Little Buddy, for giving me four months filled with love and magic. I miss you terribly.
Thank you again and again and again. I love you.

Jen Linguri

Dickens was a special buddy that was always around. I didn't realize what a companion he was. I had the privilege of 17 years with a special friend.
Love Sharon

gone from us so sudden ,we love you forever our little fart

Melissa

My little friend,
I wanted to let you know that I did everything I could to help you. I could see that you were getting weaker. I begged you to keep fighting. My mother and I hand fed you. We wanted you to stay because we loved you.
Now I know you are at the rainbow bridge playing with the other kittens that passed on

Steph

My precious Little Girl passed away and we will miss her very much. She was such an important part of our family. I am just blessed with the time I did have her and the joyful memories that will always be held in my heart.

Kathie

Our precious Tabby cat, Little Girl, died on April 22, 2007 from kidney failure.
She was a victim of the pet food recall.
Little Girl gave us so much love, we miss her so very much.
It isn't fair that her life was taken away by negligent pet food makers, that failed to put their product on the pet food recall list until after it was too late for her.
Rest well in Heaven Little Girl, you will always be in our hearts.
Your brother Sammy misses you too, and hopefully will fully recover from being poisoned.

Carlos and Judy

MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE MAMA'S
WE WILL MISS YOU EVERY SECOND
OF EVERY DAY

YOU BROUGHT HAPPINESS INTO OUR
HOME AND INTO OUR HEARTS

WE LOVE YOU MAMA'S

Little Guy was incrediable, he was so different, in the most great way, he loved to run, who knew it's be the death of him. *CRY* I hope my dog Little Guy, who we lost in a horrible way, hit by a car at only 4 years old, runs and runs as much as he can have over the rainbow bridge. The most special dog I have ever owned, and ever will. He was a dog you can't describe in words, he was the best thing that ever happened to me. And his death was the worst thing that will ever happened to me. I will ALWAYS love you Little Guy, you will never ever be forgotten and will always hold a large place in my heart, and will NEVER be replaced, and never be left behind, you were the best dog I will ever have, you deserved all the room in the world to run, and I should have gave it to you. I'm sorry Little Guy, but I hope we see each other again one day, you and I will run forever. We love you Little Guy, and I always will.

Devinne and Russ Howard

He was the sweetest, nicest most affectionate cat ever.
I miss him so much.
He brought so much good to my life.

Judy Callaghan

I want you to know I love you. I didn't take you into my heart until recently. You're flying free now. Being free is the best thing for a bird. But your kind of bird probably will not survive winter, and I'll be sad for you dying in the cold. As long as you live, may you love being out in the big world, riding the big kahuna airwaves. May you find shelter when you need it and love from the universal spirit on your Great Adventure. Love, Roxy

He was the sweetest, most gentle, most loving, most affectionate pet possible.
He was great with other animals, children and adults.
I miss him so much.

Judith A. Callaghan

Little Guy I only had the honor of having you for five years and I do not know what kind of life you had before me, but I loved you with all my heart and you loved me back. We shared a special bond of just being.
You brought me such joy and unconditional love I have never felt before. You were my sweet boy and I miss you greatly.
Until we meet again.........xxxooo

Patricia Johnson

In loving memory of a our beautiful baby girl, Gypsy.
In your short life we loved, laughed and played together, enjoying our car rides together most of all.
You are always in our thoughts and memories.
We love and miss you, our little Gypsy Star.

Marsha, James and Samantha

Little Flight was an amazing horse. She helped me through some of life's toughest times. She never judged me, she was there for me no matter what. I felt on top of the world when her and I were together, nothing could upset either one of us. We were like one when we were riding. I have known no other life but one with her by my side, and I am slowing coping with her loss. This is a very difficult time. I try to remember all the great times we had together, they seem to never end.

Andrea

Theresa Kelley

My neighbor found this kitten in their backyard when it was raining. They asked my mom and I if we could take care of it and we did. Everything was fine until the thir day. The little kitten passed away. My guess is that it was sick. We buried it in our backyard. I cried so much that day.

Christina

I love and knew Little Kitty only for a short time, but loved her very much. I moved back to my family's home in Jersey City shortly after Mother's Day 2006.
I recently lost a gray tiger cat and one morning I saw a kitten that looked just like her. The mother cat would feed her babies in my yard.
I would bring them food and water every day.
They were feral cats so I never got to actually pet them , but I loved them.
There were two kittens-a long haired orange and white who I called Isabell, and is still alive, and my loved departed Little Kitty.
This past December I purchased an insulated cat house for all my furry feline friends and placed it in the backyard as a Christmas gift to them to protect them from the cold.
Every day Little KItty a beautiful little white, gray, black and silver tiger kitten and her Mom and other feline friends would greet meet on my steps as I came and went for work and school every day.
The last time I saw Little Kitty alive was Friday morning at 6:45 A.M. when I fed them last in the yard before going to work.
Saturday morning I awoke and did my ususal routine of feeding my cat friends.
Little Kitty was missing.
I looked and looked out my window as I was having my morning coffee and didn't see her.
An unsettling feeling came over me, later that morning around 11 A.M.
I saw something from my window at the other side of the street by the curb. It was Little Kitty was had been hit by a car.
I cried my heart out and am still presently grieving as I write her tribute. I picked her up and wrapped her in a plastic bag.
A neighbor who also is an animal lover (his name was Mr. Blessing of all names) helped me say good-bye to my friend.
Unfortunately, I was unable to pet her while she was alive as she wouldn't let me close enough as she was born in the wild.
We petted her, prayed, and wrapped her in a box.
In NJ you are not allowed to bury pets on your property or you will be fined.
I put her in the box and placed her in my yard where she was born and enjoyed her life one last time. Mr. Blessing gave me the number of the Board of Health that picks up animals in these situations.
Today I am lighting candles to say good-bye to my beloved pet before her pick up tomorrow.
I have beautiful spring flowers and 3 candles which I prayed and lit for her on my dining room table.
This morning early, from a distance, I saw a cat that looked like her, perhaps it is her spirit still in my yard.
Please pray that she goes to the light and enters heaven peacefully and knows I love her.

Laurie

My darling little pup..too poorly to carry on fighting. Your siblings are also sick and I pray for you all..as I do all the dogs in the rescue centre. With us for such a short time..but loved so much.

Charles and Marlyanne

I was watching Jay Lenos "Headlines" and then I heard a cry of pain! It shook me to the core. My little man was right next to the bedroom dorr and I was petting him and he passed on! I have had him since my grandfather passed away! The day I came back from my Grandfathers Burial he jumped into my lap and fell alseep! I live on Disability and he was my constant companion! I miss him very much. Thank You for listening!

Rebekah Hughes

This little guy was only nine weeks old when he died and we only had him for two weeks. He came to us very sick and we did all we could including using the vet to try and save him. He was a fighter and we thought he was getting better but on thursday night, 4-26-07, he was called to the Rainbow Bridge to join his older sisters and brother and many cousins he never met in real life.
Rest easy now, you will remain in our hearts just as tho we had you for years. With LOVE to you BEAU.

Cecil and Charlotte Tipton

Little Man was my 2nd Hamster, I had another Winter White Russian Drawf before that, named Buddy.
Buddy passed away on 1/19/07.
I was devastated, and so depressed.
My sister thought that the way to make me smile again was to get me another hamster that looked just like Buddy.
She got me Little Man.
Little Man was a lot smaller than Buddy was when I first got Buddy.
The store told us Little Man was the runt of the litter.
She brought him to me on Superbowl Sunday 2/4/07, he was so cute.
I got his cage together, and he seemed healthy and happy.
I personally only saw him eat and drink one time, but I just took for granted he was a baby and maybe didn't need to drink or eat that much.
He had a personality, instead of running inside his wheel, he liked to run on the outside of the wheel.
I held on him sometimes and played with him.
He seemed ok...but I started to notice that he was sleeping a lot, and when I would tap on his cage in the morning, he wouldn't respond unless I would touch him.
Three nights after I got him, I was getting ready for bed and noticed he was walking weird in his cage.
I took him out and put him on my bedroom floor, he was trying to walk, but, he was falling over, and his whole bottom half of his body was twisting to the point he was halfway laying on his back.
I called Animerge, they told me to bring him in.
It was 11:00pm and I was rushing to Animerge.
When I got there, he looked so bad, it looked like he was going to die right there.
The doctor and the nurse took him upstairs to get him warm, fed him some dextrose fluid, some alfalfa mixed with water and some kitten milk.
He seemed to be doing better so the dr told me to take him home and instructed me on how to feed him for the next 12-18 hours, every hour.
I had to take him back out into the cold and when I got home, he was doing really bad.
I took the dextrose fluid out and started feeding him...and then the other two things, and he just kept getting worse and worse.
I held him in my left hand, he was laying on his back and I was trying to feed him.
He was breathing really heavily and while breathing he was squeaking.
He was trying to gulp down the food.
He was looking at me, and then I heard a really big breath, and he just stopped breathing.
I was devastated.
He died laying in my hand looking at me...I closed his eyes and put him back in the cage.
I don't know what happened, the poor little boy was only with me for about 4 days..not even.
He passed away right before 2am on 2/8/07.
I will miss you Little Man - even though you weren't with me for too long, you held a special place in my heart.
I love you...

Shannon

We will always hold a special place in out hearts for you Mickey. We only had you for 10 short months but we loved you very much. We miss your friendly growls & your gimpy walk. Love, Mom & Dad

Ginger was my little girl.
She was the light of my life and my reason for everything.
She was loving, loyal, devoted and very special.
She was my best friend.
Ginger loved me too, this I know by the way she always wanted to be near me. She was taken from me suddenly and with no warning and words can never describe the emptiness I'm feeling.
But I know she will be waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge and she's having a great time with all the other special pets.
I loved that little girl more than I can even explain and she will be missed dearly.
Until I see you again baby girl, know mommy loved you so much,

Laura White

Sophie left her beloved daddy Michael's arms only to be swept up and swung around by her daddy Keith who left her so long ago.
Reunited, along with Mumsie and Joni, they send loving comfort back to Michael who misses them all so.

Gus and Rob will take great care of Michael and help him feel all that love from above.

Miss our dear sweet 2 year old baby girl.

Little Monday-Man, The Travelin’ Squirrel

Little Monday-Man, the Travelin’ Squirrel, came into our lives in September, 1999 when he was about two weeks old.

Little Monday-Man and my wife (Angie) bonded very quickly. Even when he was still young, when she called him he would come running and jump into her hand.

So much has changed in our lives since we got Monday, but especially my wife’s health has changed much for the worse, starting in September, 2000.

Angie lives in pain. Sometimes the pain is less, sometimes it is more. Sometimes it can be excruciating and unbearable. I (Doug), her husband, know this. Other family members do not appreciate how bad it can be.

Little Monday-Man always knew when my wife was hurting. He knew! He would come to her, get as close as he could, snuggle up to her neck and face. And she would love on that little squirrel. He always made the situation better. It did me so much good to know that he was with her during the dark times, while I was always running here and there, trying to gets things done, making various arrangements, working, etc.

Angie has told me she would not be alive today if it were not for Little Man and me. I know how much good that little squirrel did for her. Angie and Monday were truly a match made in Heaven.

Of course, Angie also loved on Monday-Man a lot when she was feeling better. I would hate to guess the hours she spent loving on that little squirrel. He would sleep in her hand.

He was an excellent little traveling companion. He liked to go. We took him with us on many trips. Traveling around with him was half the fun.

He lived most of his life in our bedroom, not in a cage. He was a good little boy.

A couple of years ago, in 2005, Little Monday-Man got metabolic bone disease. He very nearly died from it in 2006, but pulled through with some help from us and a rehabilitator. In September, 2007, things got worse again. He was in pain. The Lord decided that Little Man had suffered enough. The Lord took Little Man home on October 9, 2007.

He was the sweetest little squirrel in whole entire world. No squirrel has ever been loved more by two people. He made us both so very, very happy. We both miss him so terribly, terribly much. There is a huge hole in our lives.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank you so very, very much for putting this wonderful little creature of yours in our custody for eight blessed years. We commend his soul to your everlasting grace and love, and we look forward to meeting him again in Heaven.

In Christ Our Savior’s Name we pray,

Amen

Angie and Doug

Ned, you inspired me with your courage and bravery. Blind from birth you used all your senses to make a life for yourself. Murdered in
your own yard by a dog you did not deseved such a violent end. You were such a sweet and gently soul. I hope you will be at the rainbow bridge to meet me when I come. I will always love you and never forget you. May God Bless you Little Ned

Mary Ann Urban

Dear Little Stranger,
You were found when I returned from work one dark rainy night, dead in my driveway.
Another terrible Grange Road casualty.
If you were not cared for in life, you certainly were in death.
You knew where to go to die: Helen's place, where all cats are beloved and cherished.
We hope our little ceremony helped you cross over with love.
You share the yard now with our little Will.
Rest peacefully, dear one.

Helen Paschalis

Little Tom,

Even though we knew from the first my time with you would be short, I vowed to love you and give you the best possible care possible.
I'm sorry for letting
you down.
I'll always love you and miss you my baby boy.
You came into our lives because of looking so much like Old Tom, but you carved your own place in my heart.
Good-bye my chubby little friend.
I'll miss you.
my love, mommy Linda

You were here for only the shortest time, yet you struck a chord with all of us, simply by lifting your furry little head up to us with those big dark eyes. We are so sorry we weren't there to prevent what happened, but I hope you know that we stayed with you until the very end, always hoping you'd get better. You left this world breaking many hearts, but we'll see you again someday little one!

Rachel

You will always be in our hearts,our precious one.Now your will be with your "family" who await you at the Bridge. Lots of love go with you and also to our pets who have gone on before. God Bless you all!

Angie Keahey

In memory of my Princess Littles - the most kind, gentle, gracious, beautiful greyhound lady that ever graced this Earth. You were and will always be a special gift to me from God, and may your spirit run free and strong. You taught me many things about life, but the most important one was how to give unconditional Love and Joy, no matter what life brings. God bless you, Littles, I love you.

Melissa Rosenkilde

Liv -

When you find Alfie and Felix and Midnight and Stubby and Gordon and Gertrude and Lurlene and Lady and Fred the Fish, you let them know they never left my thoughts.
Let them know I said to be nice to you.
Let them know you like Hershey's kisses and yogie treats, and you love to have the spots behind your ears scratched.
Let them know you are great with snuggling, and give them lots of kisses from me.

You let them know I will see them soon.

Love,
Me

I love my Liv with all my heart.
We were together for 26 years.
I am so sad and lonely without him.
I was his mom and he was my best friend. I will always miss him, his little "mew" when he was playing possum.
I hope he is out of pain and is in a much better and a safe place.
I miss you terribly.
Love,
Ann

you are reunited with garfy have fun til we meet again

Liz had a wonderful Guardian who held him through the trials of renal failure. She let him smell the flowers one last time and then said goodbye to her dear companion. I'm sure he'll never forget her and will be anxiously waiting by the Rainbow Bridge where he'll joyfully meet Lynda again.
'Til then, rest peacefully Liz.

Goodbye my darling Liz, I miss you so much and love you still. Forever. I will never forget you. We will meet at the Rainbow Bridge. I hope you are so happy now. Please think of me now and then.

You left us too soon, but you also left a legacy of beauty, unequaled sweetness, gentleness, and engaging personality-plus.
We miss your smile and the way you brightened every room you entered as oh so graciously came to greet your fans and adoring public.
Sleep gently sweet baby until we meet again.

Kathy Carbone

I Found My Cat Lizzy a Year Ago. She had been hit by a car. I took her to the vet and then I decided to adopt her. She was the sweetest cat I have ever seen. She loved to play,to be outside and of course a warm lap. She became sick a couple days ago and we had to get her put to sleep. I miss her so much. I hated to see her suffer it killed me but I know she is not in pain anylonger. I will never forget her. I loved her so much.

Cortney & James

My little ball of fur was such a little trooper, she survived being neglected by her mama, when I adopted her as a "little sister" for Pumpkin, my male cat, he wanted a playmate. Throughout her illness she endure more than I ever could have. She was the best part me, my little Lizzy T. I love you and miss you little one, Pumpkin does too. Wait for me.

Lizzyebee was and is our special girl.
She was our blessing we will cherish forever.

You will be missed so much.
I will never forget the special times we spent together. Travel well in Gods hands.

Danni

My love, my pet, my besst friend. Loba was my loyal buddy. She was the one I would turn to when i was feeling down. She was my protector. She was my friend. She passed away so suddenly, and I still cry to this day for my baby. I miss her so much, and I know one day I'll see my Loba again.

Best Friend I had for a very very long time

I will never forget him

Kelly Ann Matuseski

BEST DOG IN THE WORLD NOW HE IS PLAYING AND SWIMMING WITH ANGELS!

Lupe Garcia

Lobo was a wonderful boy who is going to be missed not only by his mom but by the rest of his family and friends. His memory by all who met him if only but once, is a true testament to his personality!

Lobo 1994-2007

“Lil” Lobo, my shepherd-collie “puppy” left for the Rainbow Bridge, Saturday, February 17th. Diagnosed with cancer in August, he was given two months but fought valiantly against the dreaded disease, living the life of a happy, pampered pooch until arthritis, the bane of large dogs finally started taking away his quality of life this week.
“Lobes” was adopted from a neighbor on 12/3/1994. His arrival gave me a two-dog household as he joined Bojac, his white German Shepherd step-sister. Their relationship was a little rocky the first couple of years with Bojac keeping the young Lobo in line, sometimes more than just a little aggressively. I had to always keep a cup of water handy because there was quite a few fights and when they got into it I would throw the water on both of them and the fight would stop immediately and they would both look at me like “What was that for ?”.
My favorite Lobo story is when a friend of mine installed a “puppy door”. Bojac figured it out right away but Lobo would wait by the back door for me to open it. Finally my friend showed Lobo how it worked by crawling through the puppy door himself a few times before Lobo finally figured it out.
Tonight will only be the second time in 18 years that my house will be dog-less. The first was when Bojac spent the evening at the Vets when she was spayed. Will I get another pet, I am sure I will but probably not until Spring. Although it is sad with the passing of a beloved animal companion, your memories remain in your heart. I have tons of pictures of both of my “puppies” so there will always be physical reminders. People I have talked to who have lost long time pets say they will not get another either because their lives are too hectic to be tied down or they could never replace the one they had. I must be getting old because my life could never be that busy that I would not have time for a dog and you never really replace a pet; you just build new memories. As I write this my house is extremely “empty” perhaps I will not wait until Spring..
Good-Bye “Lil” Lobo, listen to Bojac, she will show you the ropes and wait for me at the Rainbow Bridge.

Phil Zangari

No kitty was more perfect or loving than Lobo. He never hurt a soul, and he always played with his claws in so little hands and feet weren't scratched. He was born wild on Grandma and Grandpa's property in the middle of nowhere, and they saved him and his brothers and sisters from being eaten by wild animals or frozen in the early spring mountain winds.
Grandpa called him Wolf because he was all gray and looked like a wolf.
Mommy changed his name to Lobo when he came to live with us because it's Spanish for wolf.
Sister called him Bobo.
We knew we had a special kitty when he climbed on Mommy's shoulder and stayed there the two hours it takes to drive home from Grandma's house.
It was a little hard for Mommy to drive, but she managed. Daddy is alergic to animal hair, so he taught Bobo to sit on his lap to be petted and not go up in his face.
Bobo learned real well, but he knew he could climb all over Mommy, and he did.
He loved to give her kisses and tuck his head under her chin while they watched TV.
Soon Bobo had Daddy wrapped around his tail, and Daddy didn't seem to be as alergic as he used to be. Daddy played a lot with Bobo; especially, hide and seek. Daddy would hide behind something and let Bobo see him.
Then he would stay hidden.
Bobo would run and jump at Daddy as if to say "Boo!" Bobo also liked to hide on the top stairs and slap Daddy's head when he walked up the bottom stairs. Daddy misses Bobo more than anyone.
Sister would chase Bobo up the stairs, then Bobo would chase Sister down the stairs.
Up and down they'd go until Mommy would yell, "Would you children stop running in the house!" Bobo was our second child. Bobo liked to hide under Sister's bed and scare her when she walked in.
Sister would pick Bobo up and hold him like a rag doll. He loved being loved by Sister and missed her a great deal when she was gone. Bobo was the best cat in the whole world.
We miss him so much.

Chris A

We lost our buddy and our dearest friend, our 150 lb. Lobo, the most gentle of gents.
He loved his sibling sister and other 2 rescues.
He was a one of kind sweetheart.
His eyes were bright and he always wore a happy face, until he was stuck down by the awful word "CANCER". By the time we knew he had Hemangiosarcoma of the spleen,kidney and possibly heart it was too late.
We had to have him put down.
Our hearts ache for him and his buddies look for him day and nite and we all cry together.
He greeted us daily and would howl instead of bark to sound like he was saying, HELLO. We miss Lobo terribly, a void is in our home.
Forever in our hearts you will remain our dearly beloved friend, Lobo.

Gary & Ella

We are greatful for the years we had together and you will hold a special place in our hearts forever.

Ken and Michelle

The greatest, most loyal and beloved friend anyone could ever have.
You will always be in our hearts.

Chris Bilello

You walked into our lives by pure luck seven years ago, and it was the best day of our lives.
The Great in Great Dane didn't begin to describe you.
You were our protector, our clown, our hearts, and our best friend.
You brought dignity and peace when our family needed it most.
You were always there, no questions asked, ready to love us in an unconditional way most people could never understand.
You won't be sick anymore, and now you can run and play as you were meant to.
Nothing can ever fill the hole you have left in our hearts.
Play with Doozer at the Bridge...we will be together again someday.
We love you our LoLo Puppy - Forever and ever
Mommy, Daddy, ES, Cori, Max, Stella, Kyra, Frieda, and all your other furry and feathered siblings.

Rest in Peace my sweet Logan Bears.
I will love you and miss you every day of my life.
You were my best friend and I love you with all my heart and soul.
I will see you soon.

Cathy Raney

Logan-
I will never forget when you came into our life 9 years and 9 months ago when we picked up out at the Humane Society. You were the cutest puppy and you immediately captured our hearts.
You were the light of my life!
You always made me happy when I was feeling down and made each day enjoyable.
My heart aches for you right now....I miss you so much.
I remember these words from a song I heard today and think of you constantly...."Sunny days seem to hurt the most..wear the pain like a heavy coat...see you every where I go...still can't believe you are gone...god knows how I miss you...all the hell that I have been through just knowing no one could take your place"..... I love you my puppy...
Love, Jen, Grandma, Grandpa, Melissa and you furry buddy Jaden.

My sweet Lois I love you so much and will miss you. You have been a good and faithful servant over the years, from the first evening I got
you almost 14 years ago you have been my baby. We have had a lot of good times. You loved to catch frisbees and just be with me.
You taught me the true meaning of Unconditional Love. You help me with my understanding of God. You have watched over Big Moma and been her faithful companion. You was a great Mom when you had 15 puppies all at one time and was always kind and gentle with others. You were the most loving animal I have every known. I know you are with God now chasing frisbees and be a real angel. I love you!

Leanne O'Brien

My dear Lokee-
Words can't express the pain and emptiness I've felt since you died. You spent most of your years in a puppy mill and we only got to spend one year together. I miss your happy little face, the way you goose-stepped when you walked and the way you insisted on being everywhere I was.

Mommy loves you so very much and I know you're hanging out with Yellow Dog, Thelma and Valentino, and I know I'll get to see you again. In the meantime, I will always think of you and I will always love my little Lokers.

"And I
I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end
The way it all would go
Our lives
Are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance"

Till we meet again,
Mommy

For my baby boy, taken to soon. I will always love you and miss you, but I cherish the time we had.

Kris Whitby

I'm so sorry that I couldn't save you, buddy.

Kara

You are the once in a life time dog that will never be forgotten.
You did every task and job I needed done.
My constant companion from the moment I brought you home till the day you left.
I will never foret all the fun we had learning new things together.
A small piece of me left when you did.
I wil love you forever
Until we meet again!
Love Mom

A wonderful dog that we will miss terribly.

Roxanne and Summer Torres

Our dear, beloved family guardian.
Mom's Big Boy. Hansom to all the ladies.
We miss you dearly.
Your time here was too short, but now you are free to romp around and play all you want.
I hope Tim has led you to Peeper, Jewel, Gypsy, and the rest and added you to the family pack.
Until we meet again, mister.
Our love for you will never die.

Lewis Palmer

My Loki-Doke,
You came into my life under 1 pound, a little ball of black fur with big blue eyes, you and your brother Mango.
You were my friend and confidant. You were my snugglemaster and pain the rear. You had this uncanny ability to annoy me and roll over and offer your tummy as a peace offering.
I had not slept through the night since you came into my life, as you woke me up every morning at 3 am to play and you would not stop until our game of chasing you into the kitchen and rolling over and showing me your belly and I would carry you back to bed.
You did my homework with me, drooling on my laptop, laid on my chest drooling on me, giving me kisses. You would get annoyed if I gave you kisses or move you away from my computer...
I was there just after you were born, and I was there for your last breath.
I held you and cried and kept telling you how much I loved you and how grateful to God I am for you. You and your brother Mango made me into the person I am today. You made me a responsible petmommy and showed me unconditional love.
I will be grateful to you forever and I know we will be together again.
I miss you so much and love you even more. I will always love you and you will alwasys be in my heart. The hole that you leave behind in my heart will never be filled.....
Your paw print is forever imbedded on my heart....
love, your mommy

Loki you left us way too soon.
Along the way you taught us to love as much and often as possible, you can't have enough tummy rubs and never pass us a cookie or other goodie.
Your happy spirit no matter what happened to you is a lesson for us all.
We cannot say how very much you mean to us and how berefit we are without you so I hope you will now be our Angel Loki to look after us.

Elizabeth & Patrick Pasky

Our wonderful amazing stunning little girl we will miss your cheeky ways everyday.
We ask ourselves why but will never know the answer.
Lets hope youve gone on to a wonderful land where we all meet again one day.

Lovely Lola Lickit

Love always Mummy and Daddy and Sarawak xxxx

Dear sweet Lola:

Your life was short but you brought me so much joy.
I hope I made you as happy as you made me.
I'm so lonely without you, my dear friend.
I will never forget you.
I did everything I could to help you, please forgive me because it was not enough. I love you, Lola.

Amanda

Lola is still the love of my life. There is, nor ever will be, a sweeter or more loved pet. All She wanted in life was to be loved (and fed of course). She died having multiple (50 +) seizures. She had been on medication, but it just didn't work for her. My heart is breaking as I write this and I know all who have lost a pet will understand. I will light my candle for Lola and all our beloved pets who will never be forgotten.

Becki

A sweet little foster kitten who will remain forever in my heart.

Cory Moshman

Still don't know how I'll go on without you

Laurie, Tim, Jessica, and Taylor

Lola, thank you for for bringing so much happiness and peace to my life.
I am so greatful for the time I had with you.
I really wish it could have been longer but I know that I am so lucky to have had you touch my life like you did.
I never thought such a little girl could make me so happy.
I know you stayed as long as you could and I know your body was not strong enough for your spirit.
I think you wanted me to let you rest and knew it was best to let you go.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting me be your mommy, for letting me love you and for loving me back.
I will remember you always.
You are forever a part of my heart.

I love you baby girl.

Terri Arellano

Lola was a great little piggy... she was my first pet, my true friend, and a great little listener.
She had a great life filled with many games of follow the leader, many carrots, and many snuggles.
I miss her dearly, but I know she is now in no pain and will be able to run, jump, and eat all the timothy hay she wants... I love you Lola.

Megan

Dear Lola,
Our special girl, we love you so very much.
Thank you for all of the joy, sunshine, love and light you brought into our home every minute of every day.
You are truly an angel.
I love you so very much, thank you for being my best girlfriend.

Kelly & Henry McGovern

Lola came into our lives and opened our hearts. She made us a family. Everyday spent with her was a gift from God and she was truly the most preciuos little Angel. Full of life and full of energy, she was taken from us too soon but her light and love will be with us always.

Dominique King and Luke Lawrentschuk

Thank you baby girl for helping me get through the loss of Kevin.I'm so sorry I wasn't here with you, please forgive me. He would have loved you as much as we do and I can only hope you find each other. I love you as much as my as my real childern and will always love you. Spike is lonely without you and Oliver and Cinnamon are also looking for you. Please help me make the right decision tonight. Love, your mom

Lola was beautiful, energetic, and stubborn. She will be missed, we had fun together.

Jessica

Daddy & I write this for you, Lola Pug! 3 weeks ago was the worst day of our lives so far-we lost you to PDE(pug dog encephalitis). A terrible disease that only affects your kind: pugs. Luckily, Dr. Kimberly Greer in Texas will use your remains to hopefully find a cure so no other pug mommy or daddy will have to go through what we did.

The day I brought you home 4 years ago, I knew you would change my life for the better. Daddy needed to warm up to you a little. Remember, he was sooo unsure about you cause he thought "pugs are the ugliest dogs on earth"-but boy...did you win him over quickly! You became his pug princess & my Boob-ba, Puppet, Lol-lees, & Lola Pug! All those little pet names. You were my best friend...truly.

My heart is breaking as I write this. My tears are heavy cause we miss you so much. This house is too quiet without you. No more pitter-patter of your paws on the hardwood floors, no more "snuggle pug" time with us as we slept, no more dancing like a ballerina when mommy would give you treats, no more pug massage(you loved those), no more...you:(
It killed daddy to put your bed & bowls away. Your sister Luna, misses you dearly-sometimes she'll lay in your favorite spot by the couch. When I get home from work everyday I always ask her: "did you see Lola today"? I pray that you come around from time to time. Thanks for the dream I had the other night of you: it was comforting, but I still cried.

Your story was simple. Mommy found you on Petfinder.com, took you out of a horrible situation & put you in a place where there was lot's of food, love, love, & more love, warm places to sleep & a backyard where you loved to lay in the sun. Your life went from frightening to fabulous! You were loved by all. Even people who were not "dog" people, you found a way to win them over! You & me started a trend: after I got you, Heather got a pug, Lisa got ANOTHER pug-named Lola, Auntie Schannen got a pug, Dawn got a pug. It was pug-fever for awhile! We did it-we let the world know that pugs are truly the best companions to have. Thanks to you!

I look @ your pictures all the time. Daddy says that it is not healthy to do that- I disagree. This is my way of remembering you. For him, it's too painful. I cry a little less everyday but I still cry for you. People told me that time heals- I do believe that but for now, I just want to wallow in your memories. At night is the worst. I just think that about how you should be there with me in bed snuggling, watching comedy central as we fell asleep waiting for daddy to join us!
I miss your snort, your little bark even though you didn't bark much, the way you looked at me with love.

Lola my baby, I have so much to say-but it's things you already know. I pray that you knew we were there holding you when you crossed the rainbow bridge. I couldn't let you go. They say me & daddy held you forever but to me it was just seconds it seemed. I still have not washed the shirt I held you in that day cause it still has your smell on it-for some people, that's gross but it's my way of holding on. Please come by and see me once in awhile. Daddy wants you to know that you will always be his pug princess. We love you, miss you more than words can describe & hope you understand that we let you go because we wanted what was best for you despite our own feelings of wanting to keep you here. We didn't want pain for you- we are so sorry that we made you go as long as you did with it. We can't wait for the day where we see you waiting for us on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. Remember baby...you will always be "Mommy's Pug"! Sleep Well.

-Mommy,Daddy & Luna

We only had you a short time, but we will love you forever!
You brought joy to our hearts and filled our days with smiles.
God must have know how extra special you were, so he decided you needed to be with Him.
We love you Lola and we miss you already!

Love, Jennifer, Chris Caroline & Jackson

Lola either fell or was pushed from her nest as an infant, with only a hint of fuzzyness on her near lifeless body. Ellen and a neighbor saved her but could not stop a stray cat from nabbing her sibling. We rushed her to Ralph Pope, DVM and he issued her a clean bill of health, gave us alot of information, and wished us luck with her. She was handled with the utmost care, fed by hand, and raised as if she were our own child. She grew big and strong with love from both of us. She had her own large cage, forrest included. She would even answer to her name being called. Before she could be released in the spring, she was taken home and away from our loving care. We miss her and long to see her again. I've still got some acorns that I didn't get to give to her.

Dale & Ellen Stowell

Our dearest Lola.
You were with us for such a short, short time.
Just 2 days under a year.
But in that time you brought us such amazing joy.
You were so scrappy and such a princess.
I missed you this morning when I went into the bathroom and you were not there to follow.
I am glad that we spent the long weekend cuddling, and that you approached me so very often to sit in my lap and have be hold you like the baby you were.
I did not know at the time that by Tuesday you would be no more.
You were such a sweet, sweet baby.
You will always be remembered and adored.
Love, your Mommy

She was not with us long, but she was greatly loved! Be free from illness Lolli and dance, our beautiful, beautiful Doe-eyed bunny!

Megan & Phillip

we love you and miss you. i know mom had to put you to rest may you be out of pain forever. your sister angel is mourning your death very much. its very hard for mom and her. you are our angel in heaven. please meet us at the bridge.

Linda, Dennis, Angel Bear

Emma, Darren, Bradley, Dillon and Holmsey

Lolo thank you, you have earned everyone of my tears. i miss you every day you are so special lolly, take care of yourself until we meet again x

Melanie Barber

London was the most loving, beautiful, loyal, caring dog I ever met. He would follow me wherever I went, thump his tail to let me know my fiance was home, play in the snow, lick me to let me know he cared, etc. I am still in too much grief and sorrow to write coherently. But I love London very much and can't imagine life without him. I'm in shock at how this has affected me.

Desiree

It has only been a short time since your exodus.
I miss you "Longy"

Harold Watts

Lono Bubby Shuster,has been my special friend,unlike any human i have ever known.He has been there for me every time, be it hartaches,headaches or just pure happiness.my favorite memory is, every time i would drive up or walk up to the house ,he would allways be waiting
for me,he would get in the car as soon as i opened the door.He was definatly my Gardian Angel.Till we meet again my special friend, you will forever be in my thoughts and dreams,love your playmate lisa.

Lisa Buchanan Modika

I told you I would not forget you.

I keep thinking of you. you meant so much to us.

Jocelyne Rigal

A real tribute to Loo escapes me now. I hope with time I can find the words to encapsulate how such immense character contained in such a small body moved in and dominated our lives for 11 years. Her huge presence brought joy, laughter, warmth, love, and adoration. Now there are tears trying to fill the chasm left by her departure from this earth. I hope she is reunited with her dog friend, George, and sisters Panzareta and Mingus. One day I will nuzzle her soft mane again and feel the rumble of her motor in my chest as I hold her close. Miss you, Loo..............

Val Bate

Lorcan came to us as a miracle, fighting for his life. We took him as a gift, with the open arms of love. He lived life on his own terms as the happiest little puppy anyone ever knew. We knew Lorcan was special. He knew he was special. His life was great and filled with enough joy for ten puppies. If we knew that he would be gone so soon we would have wanted to play with him, comfort him, train him, and give him as much love as humanly possible. That is exactly what we did though we had no thought of him leaving us. He brought us more joy then we could ever have hoped for. Every moment we had him was a gift. Every person who met him was blessed. He will live in our hearts forever.

William Welch

Lord was a good dog.He lived a great life.My mom got him in college.When he was a puppy he wasn't that nice.But as he grew his attitude changed.He helped raise two liters of belgain puppies and me when I was a baby.And now I'm almost nine.He was in lots of shows.We all miss him a lot.We still have our memories.R.I.P. Lord.

Ariela Baram

Lord Nelson came into our lives one year ago.
He was an older "Special needs" dog, who had been in the shelter for 2 months.
People said he was lucky...but we were the lucky ones.
He changed our lives and stole our hearts (even the kitties love him).
His sweet nature and gentle, playful spirit will not be forgotten.
He was an important part of our lives, and one day we hope to be with him again.

Paul and Suzanne Kitwin

A dignified, loyal companion.
Always to be missed and loved

Pamela Jones

Shelby was a sweet and precious boy that we rescued in November of 2000. He needed someone to look after him. I am glad he picked us. We love him and miss him so.

Pat Rainer and Ann Tutt

Stryker,
I will always miss you and I am crying as I write this. Of all my pets, all I have lost, you were by far the hardest loss I have faced yet. You were a sweet dog, and would do anything to keep your family safe. No matter what I ever said, I want you to know that i always loved you and that i still do. As you never truly know somethings value till its gone, I feel your absence heavy in my heart. When we are reunited in the future, remember that I never stopped loving you.

Sthorm Pyrame

Lorenzo, you blessed so many people with your love, devotion and affection. You were there to provide comfort in times of need. You were my best friend. I am grateful to have shared your life for 14 happy years. You are now an angel to guide and protect in a brighter way. You are loved.

Glen Heppner

We are going to miss you small one
We are going to mourn you small one

Dinner time would never be the same without you on my lap
TV shows will not be same without you purring on my tummy

The boxes would be spared without your scratches
But I would rather you shred them to pieces
If only you are here still..

We are going to miss you small one..
We are going to mourn you Lornie girl..

Idayu Jais

My darling beautiful little girl, it was quick, diagnosed cancer one day, died not even a week later.
There's nothing we could have done, it was so rampant and so very, very fast.
Oh how I miss you. Every time I go into the garden I miss you running from one side to the other squeeling with joy, darting between my legs. I miss you lying by my side when taking a break, stretched out on the lawn in the sun. Timothy misses you too.
He howls by your grave quite often, he cries when he is alone at night, calling for you. When I am alone, he joins me, I know he misses you, he tells me.
It will be good when we are all together again, love you my darling and I know you are always near. By the way, say hello to Tish for me, give her a kiss for me as I send you a big kiss and a hug.

Jane Keef

Lotto, my baby, I love you, be good and be happy in Rainbow Bridge...

Chia-Yi

Lotus you were a star - brave to the end you brought such love to us all and we will miss you - but we will see you again soon- enjoy playing with Shipie, TC and Bengie until we can all be together without any more pain. We love you.

Colette Julian

Loudy was one of kind. He had a personality like no other cat I've ever known. He was with me for 15 years of my life and I will never forget him or stop loving him. I will hold him in my heart for all eternity and hope that when it is my time he will be waiting for me. I love you Loudy and miss you with every beat of my heart.

Tiffiny

Louie was so beautiful. Fixed at 6mos., but still fought. A torn left ear because he always wanted to be the only one around me and would fight off other cats. He brought me home a rabbit(alive and unharmed) when he was only 6mos. old, and many other surprises. He was a hunter and a fighter to his last day. The most instinctive and PROUD 100% cat I have ever seen. I don't know how he found me, but I was so proud to have been his mom. And I am proud that I allowed him to be a cat.

Patty Black

Lou,
We will miss your sweet, golden fur and boundless energy forver. Thank you for 11 and a half joyful years. We love you.

The Holtz Family

Louie came to us with baggage.
He was a rescue and very much skittish of brooms and flapping garbage bags. He hated retrieving.
He was big and loud and not crazy about other dogs.
Our other chessie, Savvy taught him to have a sense of humor.
She showed him what toys were all about.
He settled in and took over as protector over all of us.
He was so very handsome and full of energy!
In April of 07 he was diagnosed with "end stage liver disease".
The vets gave him about 3-4 months.
One even said "4-8 weeks, tops!"
Our big handsome boy didn't listen.
He fought like a trooper!
He lived for 7 months!
He taught us all so much in that time!
He trained Bella; the newest member of our pack.
He was stern but patient.
He didn't always feel good, but he ALWAYS wagged his tail for us.
He was happy to lie at our feet, just to be close.
When he was in obvious discomfort, his body so thin and tired, he let us know it was time.
We put him on his mat in the truck.
It was a beautiful sunny day.
Louie loved the sun.
We parked under a shady tree.
Our vet was so caring and compassionate!
My husband held Lou's head.
I circled my arms around him.
I felt the very last beat of his tired heart.
He was at last, our big handsome boy once again.
Whole and healthy and no longer suffering.
Our Lou!

Angie and Roy Holmstrom

To the sweetest little soul that I had the pleasure of knowing. I am a better person for having you in my life, that short little while.
I miss you so, and I will always love you.
Mom

Louie
you were a great little guy so gentle and curious about everything.
I love you and I will miss you greatly. I will see you at the bridge
mom

I love and miss you, my friend, rest in peace.

Michelle

I want to pay tribute to my beautiful Louie who was taken from me in June. Never have I had such a gentle, beautiful, sensitive and loving cat companion and I miss him like crazy.

His fur was long and white and soft and his eyes were big and shiney. Never was he mean in spirit or angry or lacking in love. His committment to me was total and unswerving and he never gave me an ounce of sadness until the day he passed away.

Much love Louie, Mimi misses you.

C x

MY PUG LOUIE - HE WAS MY SECOND PUG - UNTILL THEM I WASN'T REALLY A DOG PERSON.OH HOW A PUG CAN CHANGE ALL THAT ?
LOUIE WAS LIKE A ROLY POLY BEAR . HE WOULD SNUGGLE UP TO ME AT NIGHT WHEN I WAS WATCHING TV. IN THE MORNING HE WOULD COME INTO THE BEDROOM ALONG WITH OUR
THREE OTHER PUGS AND GET UP ON THE BED FOR A 30 MINUTE NAP. LOUIES PLACE WAS ALWAYS ON MY PILLOW AND HIS HEAD WOULD REST ON MINE . ITS HARD TO BELIEVE YOU CAN LOVE A PET SO MUCH BUT YOU DO.
GOD BLESS MY LOUIE I WILL MISS HIS CUTE SMILE AND COMPANIONSHIP.TILL I SEE HIM AGAIN

Debra R Cardinal

Louie
was loved by all in our family.
He was in the center of all family gatherings and received many "dropped" items from tables.

He loved to lie on the rug next to us or be in the kitchen with me as I cooked.

His gentle ways will be missed by all who loved him.

Thanks for the love and loyalty over the years little yellow dog.

Kerri

Louie - I will miss coming your little face peeking through your kitty door when I come home at night.
My world is much emptier without you.

Liane

Dear Louie:
You were such a smart, funny bunny. You would come when I whistled and run around the house sounding like a herd of horses. Most of all you were a loyal and protective friend. You slept on top of your cage at night watching your human friend sleep. Sometimes I saw you looking out the window too, and felt your longing to run free. Be happy my friend, for you are free now. I hope you enjoy running in the grass and leaping in the air. I will miss your many antics, snuggles and soft fur. I will always love you, little guy. Til we meet again.

Chris

Louie,
You stole my heart.
I did not NEED another cat, but you were so sweet, so funny.
I miss your antics.
You were my garden kitty, walking next to me like a dog, as I did my morning chores.

I remember the wild look in your eyes if I wadded up paper - a treat no money could buy.
I love you!
Look for me at the Rainbow Bridge once in a while.
I think you will know when.
Boo-boo you were such a love and are so missed.
Mom

We miss you everyday. You taught us so much about life and taught us the true meaning of love.

Love always!!

Maria and Josh

Louie was such an important part of my life. He was a gentle giant that everyone loved. His unconditional love was constant, his companionship never ending. Always there when we needed him. Barked when I left, sang to me when I returned home. He loved to ride in the truck just to see the world. I cry for our loss and smile for our memories. I will miss him every day of my life. I love my buddie,Louie.

Brett Klindowrth

I Thank God every day for my Lou Lou, he was my whole world, I loved him more than life it self. And I will continue to Love Lou Lou each and every day for the rest of my life.
I miss you terribly Lou Lou, you will be my heart forever and a day, I love you Lou, Love Mum-Mum

Rest in Peace my Lou Lou I love you always and forever

Josie

We love and miss you Louie. Or should I say, Louistine or maybe even Loubie!
You loved without regard.
Happy till the end!
I'll miss your dance, never seen anything quite like it.
So many redeeming qualities.
You have touched us all, and We have learned alot from you.
Rest in peace buddy, your in a better place.
I'll see you again, but until then take care and have fun.
I am sure you are in good hands.

Andy & Family

Louis became my friend. Years without a pet he came into my life. I'm sure he thought he was a dog - right from the start he would bring "something" for me to throw, toy, pen, straw, anything - I would throw it and he would bring it back to start again. He picked up something outside and was poisened, came looking at me and I could do nothing. I dont know what I can do now - too old to have another pet and anyway I would not want one - he was intelligent and my friend.

Jean Hunter

After all these years, it is so hard to come home and not have you there.
Your little brother misses you so much.
I know your with my Dad now and all my babies before you (how about your sister, Tigger? What a piece of work!)and your out of pain and having a great time.
I look forward to seeing you someday my little kitten-cat. Love and miss you
Papi

Don Singleton

My dear friend of 16 years you crossed over December 8, 2007.
My heart misses you.
I think I hear you-or expect to see you in the house or garden.
I didn't want to let you go but you were so ill.
You had been in and out of hospital for years.
You were insulin dependent the last four years of your life and I gave you your injections twice a day.
The last bout of hypoglycemia ravaged your body and your kidneys failed.
You lost the ability to stand or move well.
Your spirit was strong but your body was losing the battle.
You were in my arms when you left.
You saw me through so many dark times, and good ones like the hours you loved to sit out in the garden on a summer's day.
I can't imagine gardening without you this year.
I miss you so much.

Julia

Louise was a cat that lived at an emergency vet clinic in Charleston, SC. She was a sweet cat who left an imprint on everyone she came in contact with. For 3 years, she donated blood to help save the lives of cats in need. She passed away on Sunday, November 11, 2007 doing what she has done for 3 years-giving blood so another cat can live.

Sara

Fifteen years passed in a heartbeat, my sweet little girl. If I only I had known they would go so quickly. Rest easy now and be free from pain. Oh, how I miss you so! Until we're together again, I carry you with me deep in my heart, always.

Kirsten Holland

we loved him alot he was awesome

Austin Nate Melissa Karlee Smith

Friend, companion, and source of unconditional love for 14 years, you will be missed forever.
When I die, our ashes will be scattered together.
You blessed my life, and I pray that we can share eternity.

Laura Greenwood

A dear loving friend who is missed terribly and loved forever.
She is waiting around the corner for me until my time comes.

Dorothy B. Raught

She is gone - too suddenly - but never forgotten.
We will love her forever, and hope to see her at the Rainbow Bridge.

Gloria & Thomas Cavanaugh

My love. Prissy will take good care of you when you get there...

Stefjo Nutt

Lovie was very smart. She was my comfort when I was down or had problems. She always knew when I was sad. She was the best dog I have ever had and I miss her alot. The hardest thing I ever had to do was to put her down. She loved people and was always happy to greet them when they came to visit. She was very good with my daughters little dog and our cat. She was never mean. She will always be in my heart and I hope to see her at the rainbow bridge.

Carol Caputa

Lowe: "the sweetest cat ever". Our brown, spotted ocicat was the kindest, nicest cat; she was always friendly, always enjoying a pat from family or strangers alike. She was never any trouble, and deserved the best life we could possibly give her. Our constant, loving companion for many years will be sorely missed.

Tom and Monica Spetnagel

The best little cat in the world, my heart and soul

Linda Wehrle

A wonderful companion and a true friend.
Killed by a car way before his time.
His loss has left us with intense sorrow.

Kelley Hines

luca we miss you, you were taken so sudenly with out any warning may u run free till the day we meet at rainbow bridge, always in my heart will never forget you my special boy xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Lisa

Luca had two daddies and brought lots of love into their lives. This past summer, she want through chemotherapy treatments for a bout with "kitty breast cancer" and made it through like a real trooper.
Over the past few months, she started losing weight but was still a lovable girl and a kitten at heart. About 1 week ago, she stopped eating and was wasting away. It took her daddies a few days to realize that she was ready to pass on to the next world.
On 3/16, we helped her go to "sleepytime"--until we see her again.
She will always be our baby girl princess!
Her daddies and sister, Buttons, miss her very much.

Rich Kucinski & Tommy Stewart

Lucas, you where such a wonderful friend, shoulder, and teacher. You touched so many lives. I'm sorry it ended like this.

Rest In Piece Lucas.

Ashley Key

Lucas, my little pound puppy.
I can still see you starring at me all the way home from the pound. You were 10 months old when we adopted you.
Every rib was showing.
Not for long though, after you trusted us, you begin to eat well and even learned to play ball.
I will always cherish the trips we took together to visit Nannie and PawPaw.
Now PawPaw is gone also. I hope you got to see PawPaw when Reno ran to meet him at Rainbow Bridge. I have so many memories that are precious and bring both smiles and tears to my eyes. To this day I still talk of you often. Thank you for all the dances, being my walking partner around the seawall, chasing squirrels, chasing the water willy in the swimming pool, but most of all, loving me with unconditional love. You will always be my LuLu, Lukie Duke.
Thank you for sending us Bridget.
We tell her that she is our Bridge girl from Lucas. See you soon.....little one.

Gaynell King

My dear Lucas,

It's been a long time since you've gone but we, your family never forgot you, another dogs have been here after you and all of you have been very special to us, you are still in our hearts.
We love you very much.

Angela Restrepo

This week I struggled with an important decision ad finally decided it was time to send my Lucas across the Rainbow Bridge.
I was so lucky to have such a wonderful, loving dog who taught me so much about love and happiness!!
I am so grateful that he was a part of my life and my world will never be the same without him in it, but I know he will always live on in my heart!! I know one day we will meet again and I will get some more of his sloppy, wet kisses!!
I love him and miss him so very much!!!

Heather Hazlett

My beautiful bringer of light has left me, and taken the light with him. I know I will see that light again at the bridge someday. But for now, my world is darker without him in it.

Julie Brooks

MY SWEET SWEET LUCAS. YOU ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE MY GENTLE GIANT. CHESTER AND I MISS YOU MORE THEN WORDS CAN SAY. WE LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH. MOM

A sorrowful farewell to a true and trusted companion, a son to me, who was always glad to see me, who never found fault or judged me or his family. A friend who would calmly greet everyone with a gentle nudge. Protector of his family from those who would do harm.Who harmed not another animal or beast.A big Teddy Bear as the girls at the Vet would call him.We had a good life together.I only hope I meant as much to him as he does to me.I have had several canine companions, none like him. An ireplaceable companion and friend. So long BUB, until we meet again. Your DAD always

THEY WERE VERY SPECIAL CATS. SWEET, GENTLE AND LOVING PETS.
WE KNOW THEY ARE IN A BETTER PLACE NOW BUT WE MISS THEM TERRIBLY.
THEY WILL BE LOVED AND MISSED FOR EVER !!

DELIA,CAMILA,MANUEL MENDEZ

Luce was my little buddy for almost 14 years and will always be missed and loved.

James McDonald

Lucee was my first pet, and my first loss. She's been with me since the age of seven, up until my current age of Nineteen. She was such a loving ang intellegent little thing. I swear that she always knew what we were saying to her. She could dance on her hind legs, spinning around in little circles to entertain everyone. I never thought the day would come when i'd have to say goodbye to my baby, but i like to think of her running around happily at rainbow bridge, free of all pain. I miss you so much baby girl, and I love you with all of my heart.

Lauren

We miss you very much, beautiful Luci, especially since you weren't here long enough. You'll always be in our hearts because you taught us the wonder and beauty of simple things in life like butterflies, waves on the beach, and the softness of grass on bare feet. You truly showed us what love, bravery and determination are by your adorable, funny little antics every day of your sweet life.
You are the best teacher we ever had...one who conveyed her lessons through eyes that could read souls. We will always, always love you, and although we miss you sorely we are happy that you are at peace, resting in the arms of angels.

Melanie, Philip and Jennifer Becker

On March 20 2007, Lucile Alabama Donovan past away. Her short life was filled with pain, as much as it breaks my heart to say good bye, she will never be in pain again. Lucy aka big lu, bubba lu, big tiny, bubba stinky was my best my most trusted and loyal friend my keeper of secrets and my shoulder to cry on. My heart will be forever broken. Anyone who knew Lu knows what a kind creature she was. She will be missed by so many people. I am comforted by the fact that I had the privilege and honor to share my life with someone who I truly loved and who truly loved me. Ive asked Lu to save a spot for me on her fluffy cloud where I know we will meet again. Until then my sweet friend.

Carly Donovan

Love ya Lucy!
She came to us from the Humane Society for 17 years and 8 days and she returned to the Humane Society to go to the Rainbow Bridge. She was my best friend who was older than my son, she listened to all my joys and sorrows, and was the most huggable dog around.
See ya Luce, wait for me at the bridge.

Love,
Wendy

Luckie, what a beautiful boy you were. You gave us so many fun times with your unique personality. We loved to watch you play in the dogs water bowl. We are sorry we could not help you when you got sick. We tried everything the vets knew to do but it didn't help you. For that we are so sorry. Please know we loved you and hope to see you again. Your cage mate Wookie still looks for you to play. Love from all of us little boy.

Heather, Hayley, Jody and Bill

You were left at the shelter, where you stay for

Rest In Peace, little guy. You're in a much happier and better place now and we all hope that you're doing great and playing with all of the other puppies up at the Rainbow Bridge. Take care, Lucky. Your mommy & daddy love you very much and they're thinking of you each and every day. We love you.

In Loving Memory, Lucky.

I got Lucky 6 years ago on Christmas Day. He was my very first horse. I miss him so much!! If he had been a sponge- he would have burst with all my feelings, dreams and memories that he absorbed. He was white with chestnut- brown spots on his rump. He had chocolate brown eyes filled with love and understanding. He carried me over so many obstacles in my life.... I could have never managed them by myself. Sometimes I would get so mad with everybody, I would just go and sit on his haybale and just cry and talk to him... and every few seconds he would pick his head up and check on me. Oh... I miss him so much!! The worst part about his death was finding him. I hadn't seen him that day so I was walking out in the pasture to see if he was just napping or eating some grass. I turned the corner and he was just laying there.... It was the most terrifying moment of my life. I froze. I had been worried about this because he was so old, and he hadn't been feeling well. But, I didn't think it would really happen! I guess I was in this kind of world where I thought he would be with me forever.... I guess not. I ran over to him, tears streaming down my face, inside I already knew he was gone, but.. I ran back to the house, screaming and crying. Mama and Daddy came running out and I was crying so hard I couldn't tell them what happened. So they followed me to where he was. The one thing they managed to get out of me was "Lucky." Mama said, " what is it, Brooke? Is he hurt?"
"No, he's dead!" That's when it hit me.. he wasn't coming back, my beautiful, trusting Lucky.. he wasn't ever coming back. No more rides. No more haybale cries. No more follow the leader. I was devastated. Luckily I had friends at school who knew Lucky and loved him too. They helped me get through an EXTREMELY rough time. I have a picture of Lucky and me together on my night table. I kiss him every night before I go to bed. Christmas will be hard without him this year, but I know he would want me to be happy. My parents and friends think that I'm ok with it now, but I'm not. I don't think I ever will be. I dream about him evry other night. and sometimes I wake up crying. Please pray for me. The Rainbow Bridge has really helped me get through this awful event. Thank you for making this website for people like me who are going through a really rough spot.

Brooke

Thank you 'Lucky' for the happiness you gave me xxx

Christine Coombes

a poem for Lucky

by Stephanie Lewis
Take me for a ride, yes I'm ready to go
Where we are going I just don't know
Help me up, sit with me in the car
I have a feeling it's not very far

I'm tired, I'm cold, but I have my sweater
I know that soon I'll be feeling much better

Carry me in your arms, my legs are weak
My feeble body is in much need of sleep

Lay me down gently on the table
My familiar faces I'll kiss while I'm still able

I know this is hard for you and for me
But there is a better place I need to be

Just sit with me, gently pet my head
The next few minutes please do not dread

Remember me as I will you
I will be gone, yes this is true

I will awake, new surroundings, a new place
And to greet me will be a familiar face

Don't be sad, I'll love you forever
For someday again, we'll all be together

Stephanie Lorraine Lewis

My Lucky Beagle Dog was with me through some of the hardest times of my life. I grieve for her still, miss her every day, will never forget her.

Sue Duckworth

On my brothers birthday my mom went to pick up something and found a hurt kitten on the side of the road..so she came back with a kitten. It really made me happy. When he was brought to my house he was in my care. About 2 or 3 days later he got even more sick, since he could barely move, eat or drink, and he was very malnurished. So later that night he couldn't move at all anymore and so he starting going to the bathroom where he last fell down. He started to smell really bad and so we decided to take him to the vet. And they said that he got hit by a car and then he was humnaly euthinized.

The End

Brenda J Metz

My Darling Lucky,
You were such a faithful loving friend during the good times, and especially when we lost Daddy Bill.
You stayed by my side and were a comfort.
My heart hurts so but I will see you again when my time comes.

I Love You So Lucky,
Mom Wanda

My dearest Lucky:
You will always be my special one eyed, very vocal kitty.
You are dearly loved and missed by me and your other siblings.

Lucretia Darnell

Lucky, our dear furbaby.
You brought much joy and happiness to the home.
Seeing you this morning we know you are in peace in rainbow heaven. We will miss you no matter how much you ran from us. Your fur buddies, Sassy and Puddles miss you here at home. We hope you went peacefully for you seem to be at peace this morning.
Take care of yourself till we can meet again. We love you!

Joni, Dennis, Anthony, Russell, Sean

My dear sweet little buddy - it is so hard to say good-bye to someone who meant so much.
You were a constant companion, a friend at all times, always eager and happy and full of life.
You filled our house with energy and joy, and brought us all together, even when things were rough.
You are missed so much - there is a hole in our hearts from your loss...
Thank you for all of your unconditional love and support, for your cuddles and licks, for your wagging butt and exuberant joy when you would see me....I hope you are happy and getting to chase all the rabbits your heart desires!
I think of you everyday, and look forward to the time when I can see you again...
I love you so much, Mom

Lucky was the best dog in the whole world.
He came to me when I was feeling the loss of an empty nest, and boy did that little boy fill me up with love.
He was true to me until the very end.
I put him through a lot, hoping that he would recovery, but it was time to let him go.
I was with him when
he took his last breath, and I wispered in his ear, "I love you too much."

Judy Brannan

We adopted Lucky, our golden retriever from golden retriever rescue when she was 3 years old. She was our baby, before our son was born. We adopted Lucky in 1996, our son Robert was born in 1997. Lucky was a wonderful dog and a wonderful member of our family. She was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on her spleen, almost 2 yrs ago and our vet at the time gave Lucky a death sentence. She told us at the rate that the tumor was growing that Lucky had 4-5 weeks to live. Luck out lived the vets prediction. The tumor did continue to grow and become larger, but her quality of life seemed to be good, until the day before she died. On Monday, June 4, 2007, Lucky was not herself. she basically stayed in the same place in the hall in our home that she has been in all night long. We really did not give it that much thought, thinking that she just wasn't feeling well. On Tuesday, June 5th, she again remained in the hall near the kitchen, not wanting to go out, not interested in her food or even water. Our son, who is 10 years old, tried to offer her food from her bowl, but she ignored it, he then proceeded to bring her water bowl to her. She lapped it up quickly, but proceeded to vomit it all up. I knew that the time had come. I had to be the adult, and try not to cry . I had to be strong for Lucky and for our son. I was home with Lucky and our son, he was on summer vacation from school. My husband was at work. I had to get Lucky into the car, which in and of itself was very difficult as well as heart wrenching. She could not move herself at all. She was a female golden, but she weighed at least 80 lbs and not being able to move herself, made it even more difficult. When we finally got Lucky into the car and on our way to the vets, I played mind games with myself, telling myself that once we arrived at the vets that they would be able to give her medication that would make her feel better and maybe keep her pain free and with us for a while longer. My bubble burst when the vet techs had to struggle to get Lucky from my car onto the animal stretcher and into the door of the animal hospital. Just the expression on her pretty face told the story of just how much pain she was in. I was told that Goldens are very good at hiding their pain until the end. Her eyes were almost completely closed and you could see she was suffering. As I write this, almost 2 months and 1 day since we lost our girl, I am taken back to that day and feel the pain again. Our son was with me when I told the vet to begin the I.V. that would end Lucky's suffering. I have had 4 dogs during the course of my life. Lucky though was special, Golden Retrievers are very special dogs. I feel that they are more attuned to their human families than many other breeds. Lucky was our Golden girl, she was Ms. Prissy Paws when it rained, and her favorite thing outside of the twice daily food in her bowl, was whip cream in the aerosol bottle and frosty paws- doggie ice cream.

She will always be my golden girl, my luck, my girlfriend. I miss you baby girl, you are missed and can not ever be replaced!!!!!!!!!
love always your human momma, daddy and your Robert- who was your pup- when he began to crawl you would nudge him out of harms way as much as you would your own golden puppy.

You came to us at 2 months old and you gave us nothing but joy ever since.
From running through the house, giving us paws, and singing a song, you were the best dog anyone could ask for.
The hardest decision came this past weekend when you couldn't walk up the stairs anymore and we decided to not let you suffer but instead go over the rainbow bridge.
Hopefully you made it ok and we all look forward to seeing you again.

Serena, Charlene, Trama, Trampa, Manny, and Goliath

You were the best friend in the world.
I don't know what life is going to be like without you.
You were a gift from God, always there when someone needed a hug,love, to feel safe....an angel in a fur coat.
Go in peace, beloved friend, without pain.
Wait with Grammy until we are together again in paradise.

Kathy and Ben

I will honor you all. I am sorry for the delay.
You all will always be in our hearts.
Lucky you were my first real pet and a comfort to me through a hard home life. I will always love you.Vanilla Fudge, Gael always misses you and will always. We love you all!

Karen Bartlett

Hello Lucky, it's me, Dan.

Miss you so much, even since you were peacefully put to sleep on Wednesday you've left a huge void in my life.

Can't wait to be reunited with you so we can pass happily over the rainbow bridge together.

I hope you're making use of your legs no longer hurting.
You were the best friend I could ever have wished for, Lucky.

I miss you more than anything.

Lots and lots of love forever.

Daniel Moore

Lucky was a rescue dropped off at a kill shelter.
He had many medical issues unknown to me.
But, that would not have made a difference.
He came home from the hospital today.
He breathed his last breath in my arms.
I will miss my fox face dearly.

Heidi Peter

Poem
We will miss you Lucky our beloved pet
You fought real hard to stay with us but your body did not agree
Your Master mourns your death today, you were our baby his buddy you see
Our hearts our filled with sorrow as tears fall down our face
Your Master will miss the hikes and walks the quiet times together
He’ll miss his buddy walking beside him and the cherished times remembered
He spent time with you thinking of you and the decision he had to make
He put you to rest in a peaceful place it was hard for him to take
The love for you forever etched deep inside his heart
Thoughts of you will stay with him each passing day apart
Your Master mourns your death today

We love and miss our baby girl

Hi baby lucky, I love you very much and I hope that someday will see each other again. I miss you so much. I still look for you when I get home and when I wake up in the middle of the night. I am so sad on the way you were taking away from me. but I know you are now in a better place w/ no pain. I Love You. You will always have a special place in my heart.

Edna Alfonso

A dog found on the side of the road, age 6 months, weighing 15 pounds, suffering from malnutrition became my shadow and my friend. He was the gentlest, smartest dog I have ever known. The cancer that took him fortunately came toward the end of his lifespan. If you are fortunate, once in your life you will find that one special dog with whom you have the ultimate bond. He was mine, and even as I grieve, I thank God for giving him to me. I love you Luckydog!

Rhonda Ungericht

Goodbye my pal, my baby...We will miss you always. Until we meet again.

Breslin

Lucky,

We parted ways today but that was the only thing that could've been done.
You were much more than a dog to me...more like my best friend and firstborn son all rolled up in one.
You were truly special and will always be a part of me.

I love you Lucky and I will never stop loving you.

Andrew Lee

Lucky I still love and miss you so much.
Daddy passed away on April 17th and I hope you have found one another.

Thank you Lucky for being the best dog ever. You were so kind and loving and humble, a real poer of example. I will always love you.

Colleen Camasta

Lucky
It has been over 2 years since you left us and we still miss you every day.
You were the most beautiful boy. You had such beautiful long black silky fur and your fluffy tail was so magnificant.
You loved to lay on your back while we rubbed your tummy and you especially enjoyed laying on the picnic table in the sun.
You tolerated your brother Morgan and you would escape over the back fence at every opportunity.
I hope you have reunited with your brothers Malcolm, Petey and Morgan over the Rainbow Bridge.
Dad misses his Skunk Boy so much.
We love you Lucky and miss you so much.
Love, Mom and Dad

LUCKY yor son is fine and is been looked after passionately but we could never love a horse as much as we love you R.I.P.

Alex Sam Chris Sean Becca

I adopted Lucky after he was rescued from a horrible situation where dogs and cats were left in a house, dozens and dozens, abandoned, some found too late.
Lucky made it out, although he had serious injuries caused by another starving dog.
He had some breathing problems caused by the attack on him and the vet said he might have a shorter life span.
Not my Lucky - you can see he lived a long time.
He was by my side from the day I brought him home - he was about 5 years old then.
He died in my arms early in the morning that June day having lost his battle with heart problems.
I have a number of pets, but Lucky was someone very special - I've never had another dog like him and even now it's difficult to write about him or speak of him, he is missed so much.

Lucky, I'm sorry I didn't put this on right after you died. I know it's over a year later, but I still want you to know that I love you.
Thank you for coming back one last time after you died. And no matter how much Raiden means to me, he'll never replace you.
I hope you are happy and carefree. I'll never forget you.
By the way, I like the song that makes me think of you. It still makes my cry a little every time I hear it.

Kalia Lauren

My sweet little boy. Even after 2 years, I still miss you & love you. You will never be forgotten for your wonderful personality and how valiantly you fought to live. Saying good-bye to you has been one of the hardest things I ever had to do. Rest in peace my sweetie.

Leslie Campbell

She was a good dog.

Lucky the one eyed, very "vocal" cat sent from heaven. You will be forever loved and dearly missed by me and your cat siblings.

Lucretia Darnell

You were my first and only dog, and I thought naturally you were for "Matt and "Shawna", just children themselves back then.
But the person you especially chose for your own was me. I still think of how funny you were, sitting on my lap, right until the end, all 120 pounds, ontop of my 120 pounds. What a site we were.
Our years together filled my life with happiness and a love that expanded beyond the comprehensible.
Now that Matt and Shawna are grown, they will always love and miss you, too, as there is a very special place in each of our hearts where you still will live forever. Grandma, too.
We keep waiting for you to come bounding down the stairs, or waiting by the cupboard with those huge brown eyes just willing us to give you another treat.
Who could refuse that magnificent smile.
You are one of the most beautiful dogs I have ever seen, you were such a big boy in both heart and spirit, and, well, yes in your XXL fur coat.
I still find your fur fluffs here and there around the house, and just sit here and feel it in my hands. Your special toy "girlfriend" is in my room, next to my bed, where I know you would want to be, too. I miss you, buddy, and I am waiting for your ashes to come home so that someday, we can mix ours up together and never be separated.
I hope you have miles of green grass to play in, and slow cats to chase!
Your kitty girls, Thelma and Louise, keep looking for you, and I know send their love to you with all of us.

For my dog daughter, Lucky Duck. From the first moment I held you after rescuing you from the middle of the road, to your last breath in my arms, we loved unconditionally. Who loves Momma like the Ducky do? I miss you terribly, and more with each passing day. That you are no longer suffering and are freed from the body that betrayed us both is the only comfort I have. Until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.... Love always Mom

Lucky Joe

You passed on so suddenly that we never really said goodbye.
Lucky you were a wonderful, faithful, loving pet and the whole family is devastated by your loss.
I do not know how we will make it without you.
The whole neighborhood is now quiet without your barking and jumping on the fence.
You were a beloved dog and we were truly bonded.
If I could make you better I would do it in a second.
Until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.
I will never stop thinking about all the good times we had going on walks and playing in the back yard.

Love and kisses forever and ever,

Mommy, Daddy, Sam and Dan

Lucky was a Fabulous, Loving, and Happy Dog who will be missed forever. We had 16 great years with him. He enjoyed running on the beach, going for walks, cuddling with family and friends, and so much more.
He will remain in my heart always!

Lisa Mahoney

Lucky I love you so much, You have brought so much Joy in to my heart and to our family we will miss you so much. Jenn, Dad, Mom, Jeffrey, Bobo, Micky

My dear sweet Lucky allowed me to share her life for 14 years.
They were the best 14 years of my life.
She was the most wonderful cat.

She will forever be deeply and sadly missed.

Diane

Lucky was deaf, and that didn't stop her from enjoying life and pretending to be a dog. She was the guard kitty and we loved her so!

Becky Holland

Lucky, we miss you so much!
We miss you whenever we open the garage door and you come running out.
We miss taking you for walks and hiding from you.
We miss you running after the car and chasing the rabbits.
We miss seeing you everyday.

You left us so suddenly, and I know that you knew that you were not coming home that day at the doctor's office.
But you saw all of us there; Andrea, Jerry, Sandra, Randi, and me.
I felt so guilty when you left because I felt like I could have given you more attention.
You always knew that we loved you.
I miss the special times we had, like when Andrea and I would let you in when Jerry was gone.
You loved it and you looked so content.
You'd do the "Chuck Berry" thing, remember?

Well, Lucky, it will be one year since you left us and we still think of you everyday.
Your picture is on the piano and we even have your ashes in the den.
We still love you and miss you very much.

I hope you’re happy at Rainbow Bridge.

Laura, Andrea & Jerry Martinez

may my precious babies (dogs cats) all be tougter in a very pleasent place.

Sandra Hurd

Lucky cat, if you made it to rainbow bridge yet, you will see baby, your brother, and some day we will all be together soon. I love you so much, Lucky and I'm sorry I had to give you up so soon. I hope you found a human to take care of you. One thing that i always found so amazing and special about you was your wacky and strong tail. That and the fact that you figured out out how to open the closet doors. You didn't get stuck in there like Baby did though. It's so amazing how smart you were. I miss your purr and our cuddling together.
Love you,
Mommy sarah

Lucky Conlin and his sister, Jett, were my very first furbaby's and were loved with all of my heart. They both gave me an incredible 14 years and made the saddest days liveable.
I will miss them dearly and pray that they wait for me on the bridge.
Love, Mommy

Lucky
You are missed very much. Mommy is so sorry that you had to go.
Brandon and Bina miss you. Daddy stands by the door looking for you. Know that we will always have you in our hearts. You were trully an amazing puppy.
I will see when the time come until then be good and I be happy.

Mommy

Lucy

This story revolves around my beloved black Labrador, Lucy.
We adopted her from a rescue agency when she was about ten months old.
If anyone had a reason to never trust people again, it would be Lucy.
Yet, she eventually opened her heart and has continued to give us unconditional love.

You could learn a lot about this from Lucy.
She looks past the outside trappings and into the soul of the person beneath.
She extends a wag of the tail, a dog smile and even dog kisses, ever so gently.

It was understandable then that when Lucy became gravely ill and required intensive hospitalization that my heart and soul wept.
I simply couldn’t imagine losing the presence of this loving dog.
I thought that if ever there was an example of the love the Universe offers, Lucy was close to it.

It was a challenge to hold to my faith.
I wanted the reassurance that we all do.
A hug from Jesus, Buddha, Mother Mary or any other loving Universal presence would have been greatly welcomed.

Through her hospitalization, Lucy continued to teach me about unconditional love.
I looked inside myself and learned even more about love.
I wanted to literally stay next to my dog.
I was trying to convince myself that it was so I could reassure her.
I gave some pretty good arguments;
I could extend some Reiki healing as I am a Reiki Master, I could rub her favorite spot.
Yet beneath it all, I knew that it was really more about reassuring me.

Yes, once again Lucy taught me about love.
I was on my way home from work and was advised that I could see my dog.
Then I was told that she was resting and I realized that to disturb her would be selfish of me.

Love really is about doing what is best for someone else, even if it causes us to be sad.

I wondered, in my faith, if this was a way for me to learn from a difficult situation.
I didn’t want it to be that because I really couldn’t face the thought of not having Lucy here with me anymore.
I realized that I would gladly give her to another family or send her to live with my son, if it meant that she continued to live.
I wanted her to have the joy and happiness that she has brought to me.

I’ve also learned through this, what it is like to be the family of the ‘patient.’
I was asked to make a decision about whether I wanted extraordinary measures taken to preserve her life.
I’ve never been in this position before and I pray that I never have to be in it again.

I have total understanding and empathy for the families that have been put in this position.
I’ve been asking myself what I think my dog would want.
She would want, out of love, for me to be comfortable with my decision.
Her life would literally be in my hands.
I’m not sure I’m up to that responsibility.

Lucy, out of her unconditional love, made the decision for us and started passing.
Out of compassion, the vet did euthanize her so as to prevent her from any suffering.
He sat with my son as my son held her while saying goodbye.

Lucy, we love you forever and will miss you always.
We pray that you are romping in dog heaven and able to eat as much as you want!

Kim, Eric and Allison

Lucy was a very special dog loved by very special people.
Heidi I know you will miss Lucy but she awaits you at the Rainbow Bridge

I love you both
Judy

Lucy came into my life as I was fresh out of college and beginning life on my own.
She was the prettiest kitten I had ever seen - all black with beautiful green eyes.
I took her to the vet immediately after finding her, only to find out she had feline leukemia.
The vet suggested I go ahead and have her put down, despite the fact there were no symptoms.
Lucy went on to live nearly 8 years with no trouble.
Unfortunately, the illness caught up to her, and she went downhill very rapidly.
Putting her down was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, and my heart aches for her every minute of every day.
Please, Lucy, don't be mad at me and know that I did everything I could to give the best life possible.
I love you, my sweet baby.
