Pet Tale
Cleo
Cleo was our daughter’s sweet baby, and she came to live with us right before our daughter passed away. We had her 5 wonderful years, and lost her Tuesday October 7th…she was 15 years old. I can’t imagine the reunion in Heaven with her Momma.
The staff at Heaven’s Rainbow Bridge are phenomenal. They were so compassionate and caring. I thank you with all my heart for your care of our sweet girl. Her ashes sit next to our precious daughters’. This service is such a blessing.
Majeste
Today my sweet, amazing, giant fluffy best friend, Majeste, crossed the rainbow bridge. Forever I will love her and she will forever be my most favorite doodle-head. She loved to adventure with me. She moved across the country with me often. She used to come to the vet tech school and help with classes. She donated blood to help save other dogs. She swam and bounced around the dog beaches and climbed literal mountains. She ate entire bags of dog food at once, chocolate cakes and cookies out of an oven, flaming pizzas, an unknown number of socks, and even a long sleeve shirt resulting in a lot of “my dog ate…” vet visits. She kept me on my toes for sure. As mischievous as she was, she was just as loving. She snuggled rats, cats, and dogs- even the smallest and injured friends I would bring home. She let me niece and nephews crawl all over her- granted she stole a few hotdogs and popsicles in return. She was truly the best dog! I thank God for the almost 15 years that I was blessed with her. I know that now, she is running and jumping pain free in doggy heaven. Rest In Peace sweet girl.
Our Sweet Babe
On this day, August 14, 2020, God called our Sweet Babe Home. Babe was born January 25, 2008. She was a second Birthday Present for Zoey. Though she was Zoey’s dog, Babe touched the life of anyone she ever met. Babe was exceptionally Loyal, Gentile and Loving. Babe made friends wherever she went. Sometimes babe would wonder out the door, come up missing and be found on a neighbor’s couch watching TV. She had a special bond with children. She could read if a child had a hard life, or even just a weird stage, and she would cling to that. She would nanny. Even if they where not her kids, she never acted like there was a difference. All children where her kids in her mind. In her younger years, she was an avid Gun Dog. She absolutely loved the hunt! She’d run all day chasing birds. No tennis ball or laser pointer or loofah was safe either! Babe was a beautiful soul. In twelve short years, she spread more love than most people can in 100. Babe, Pop will be waiting for you to cross the rainbow bridge. Hang by his side, comfort each other. Till we meet again Ol’ Skool. Love ya Pup!
My precious Callie
Callie was rescued by my ex husband, John, from a shelter in Idaho. John works as a helicopter fire fighter and Callie was raised riding in the helicopters. She needed a permanent home and was delivered to me in Texas. She loved to “load up” in the car and go for rides. She always liked to go wading and it was hard to keep her out of the water when we went camping. Her favorite place was in the front yard where she could chase the squirrels. Callie was a one-person girl who loved to sit on my feet, and got jealous when someone else was around. Her favorite person to bark at was our mailman, who became her friend after she gave her treats. She never left my side when I was diagnosed with cancer. When she turned 16 her hips finally gave out and she could no longer walk. It was the hardest thing in my life to let her go. I have cried a million tears, but I did not want her to suffer. Callie is back home with me, her Momma, where she will always be. I love you, my sweet Callie Girl.
Spike
Thank you for all of the kindness and attention to detail you showed on the handling of my Spikey and of us, during this sorrowful time. Someone told me that dog owners have said that the loss of a pet is even harder than losing a relative. This is because dogs give you unconditional love! Humans are not capable of providing unconditional love.
I am very fortunate to have this lad in my life! God truly gifted me when my path met up with this boy. Til we meet again my friend.
My Jenson
My sweet boy Jenson was born with mega esophagus, we were told to put him down, but even if there was the slightest hope he would live we ran with it. I fed him upright in my arms ever 2 hours with a syringe, and carried him until he was too big in a carrier on my chest to help his food go down. Our sweet boy made it to 6 months, and was the absolute joy of our lives. He passed on March 12th, and my world is not the same without him. I miss him more than I could ever say, but know he is with my dad in heaven, no more struggle or pain. I love you my Jenny JJ with my whole heart forever and will see you again. Have those sweet kisses ready. Mom
My Sophie-my buddy for life.
Two days ago on February 11th shortly after 7AM my sweet baby Sophie passed away. My heart has been shattered and is in a milllion pieces and I will never be the same. She was lying in bed next to me like she always did. Sophie was my world. My best friend, my little buddy, my favorite companion, my tag along, my favorite co-pilot, my baby has crossed over the rainbow bridge to a happier place where she is healthy, and she can run and chase after rabbits. Sophie could always put a smile on my face and made me laugh often. She followed me everywhere and always wanted to be close to me. She was always my travel companion. We went to Florida and she loved sitting on the beach as much as I did. If she wasn’t in the beach chair she was digging a hole so she could lay in the cool sand. She enjoyed Colorado as well. She would stand in the cold river and would hike with me. She loved taking walks and hiking but with her being the boss meant that she had to stop and mark just about everything 😀! Sophie would chase me through the house and I would run in a big circle through the kitchen and living room and she would always figure out what I was doing and then turn and go the opposite direction and catch me! 😃 We also played hide and seek. I would run really fast and get behind a door and she would run right past me several times until I would call her name or whistle and she’d come back to where I was and stand confused in front of the door and eventually find me! She brought so much joy to my heart. Whenever we had music on at home I would pick her up and we would dance through the house. I’d hold her close and spin around. She always let me just be silly and would humor me by letting me dance with her. She helped me through tough times where I was depressed, crying or anxious or angry and just be next to me so I could pet her and calm down. She was as much a Denver Broncos fan as I was. We watched the Broncos win Super Bowl 50 and she was just as excited as me. When we were in the car I would buckle her into the front seat next to me and she would always just stare at me as we drove wherever we were going. Her sweet brown eyes lovingly looking at me. I talked to her about everything and she always looked at me with interest and curiosity. I know she always understood exactly what I was saying. There was never any judgement. I would share my fries with her and sometimes when I wasn’t looking she would steal a few from me. She also enjoyed her puppuccino from Starbucks. She sat waiting patiently for me to order my drink and always knew she would get her treat. My sweet girl would sleep with me and let me hold her paw while we fell asleep. She always cuddled up close to me. Sometimes she would get all the way under the covers and go all the way down to my feet and sleep there. In the mornings when she was ready to get up she would stand on my chest and stare at me and growl her cute little growl until I got up. I remember when Xhenita and I picked her out. We found her at McKinney trade days. She was the sweet little puppy that just sat there so calm while her brothers and sisters barked and played around her. We picked her up and immediately knew we had the right puppy. Sophie was never really a yapper or bark all the time. She would only bark and let me know if someone was at the door, and bark when we were playing. She was always very protective. If the pest control or cable guy or any man she didn’t know was in the house she would nip at their ankles. One time she even bit through the pest control guys jeans….we both had a creepy feeling about him and she let him know he’d better be on his best behavior. Sophie was only 6 pounds but thought she was a 130 pound Rottweiler and had the heart of a lion. She was fearless and would take on anyone or anything if needed. She would have anxiety when it was storming and the thunder and lightning scared her. I was there for her with her anxiety and she was always there for me with mine. We took care of each other. I will never forget my sweet girl. She will always live in my heart and always be my very best friend. She was my favorite hello and give me tons of kisses, and my hardest goodbye with complete disbelief that she is gone. I love you Sophie Diane. You are missed terribly. You will always be with me and in my heart. I wish all my tears and all the pieces of my broken heart could pave a way for us to be together again. 😭
