Pet Tale

Sent our boy to be with his brothers and sisters in doggie heaven

Sunday March 24th 2019, my dearest Great Dane Rudy left this earth. The day before his 4th birthday was the worst thing I have experienced, but before this day, Rudy lived a happy life with me. His favorite place was on the couch or next to me. Many nights he spent just going from couch to my bedside and back. He hated fireworks and thunderstorms. When those would start he would jump on our bed. Although he couldn’t speak I believe he felt like he needed to protect me. We enjoyed walks in the park and our neighborhood. He had to have his daily lap time, and nightly bone. Like many Great Danes he enjoyed being lazy, but he sure was playful with his fellow dogs. My husband says he raised our two corgis which is completely true! He is the definition of gentle giant. The beginning of Rudy’s story was rough! Being the runt of his little the mother pushed him away, and when I found him he was very close to death, but with a lot of love and bottle feeding my Rudy came to life, full of energy and love to give. He would have never hurt a fly, literally. If a fly landed on him he wouldn’t move a muscle to hurt it. He just let them do their thing and let them move on. Rudy might be gone from this earth physically, but he will forever reside in my heart. I will meet you at the Rainbow Bridge baby boy, and we will be together once again!

I was 5 when someone was trying to get rid of my soon to be baby. With my parents being divorced I was with my dad for the summers so I asked him to get this cute little chihuahua and he turned down the dog right away proceeding with the typical, “ Ask your Mom.” Little did I know I would have to beg my mom ALL summer to get this dog who was “cute,barks, and just loves me” and she was sold and allowed me to bring in my puppy from Cali to Texas! With great excitement I returned home with my baby and awaiting her was my other puppy Happy. We were all attached at the hip. Years go by and Happy sadly passes away, so it’s me and Cookie against the world, everyday we would wake up next to each other and fell asleep cuddled up together every night. Cookie was a spoiled brat, anywhere I’d go she goes. The most loving puppy ever to say the least, she loved babies all the way to jumping into strangers arms to say hello. Cookie gave my family the best twelve years of our lives. She sadly left us March 30th 2019 and returned to heaven with her sister Happy. I know my babies are running around together. To my sweet girl Cookie, I miss you so much but I know you’re better, I hope you know how much you were truly loved by everyone.

Our precious “Zig” with a heart of gold with us for 16 years. He was the sweetest soul… everything about him was just easy even in times where he may not have felt well. He had such a unique relationship with his canine brother who passed four years ago…he has missed him terribly so now he meets up with him at the beautiful Rainbow Bridge where they will be together again, playing as the young furkids they once were.
Our hearts are broken as we mourn your loss….you will live in our hearts forever. We love you so much, sweet Zig….Rest in Peace.

Buster came into our lives when he was just 6 weeks old. He was so smart. He shook hands, did a high five, stood on his hind legs and begged for treats. He loved riding on the tractor but was not too much of an outdoor dog otherwise. He slept with us and always knew when it was bedtime. He was very protective of his owners and he was the best pet we ever owned. Losing him was so hard because he was that special.

Sophie was a joy to our family. She will be missed every day. We were blessed to have her for twelve years. We love her forever…

Brisket was always hyper, active and full of love. He is our first baby and meant so much to our family. He always wanted to play, run and explore. Exploring was he favorite thing. When people would come over and visit he had to stand up, put his paws on my shoulder and watch whoever was talking. He always wanted to be in the conversations. If he was outside during the day Brisket wanted his blanket. He would carry it all over the yard to lay on it. My other baby Cookie and him just always loved each other. He didn’t like to be alone or even sleep alone. If he woke up and wasn’t touching you he started whining and would lay on you. When he started to loose his hearing a couple of year ago it became even more important to always be touching someone. I can’t imagine my life without Brisket and I don’t really know how to go on. There is an empty whole in my house. I will always Love and miss my baby.

We got our boy in june as a puppy. He was trained to not attack our chickens or our children. My husband and I would go on walks and blu would pull his dad on the skateboard. He lived to pull the skateboard he loved it. I would always cuddle him as a pup when I got home from work, he would jump in my lap and make me happy. He was our emotional support dog. He left behind 13 kids and i have his first born daughter. He was my our bestfriend and my daughters everything. My daughter has Williams syndrome and he was always there to comfort her. He will be highly missed!!! We love you blushark

Uno came to us about 11 years ago, he was adopted from the pound and had already a rough life. He lost an eye and someone paid to have it fixed and never came back for him. We brought him into our family not knowing what an impact he would have on us. He was with us through some very hard times and always knew when we need a friend. His last weeks on earth we tried to show him how much we loved him by making a bucket list and allowing him to do his own thing. He will be truly missed. RIP little buddy.

The first time I met tucker was walking by a pet store in Oklahoma city. I was not planning to purchase a puppy that day, However,he was sound asleep snuggled in shredded newspaper in the window of the store. It was love at first site. As we were wdriving back to Amarillo with tucker the only place he wanted to be was on the shoulder snuggled in the neck. That is how the doggie in the window was named. Because he wanted to always sleep on my shoulder and neck. As he grew up his favorite place to sleep was on my pillow snuggle near my should and neck when I went to sleep at night in our bed. Tucker we will miss you dearly !We love you.
