Princess Peats
November 26, 1998 - December 4, 2013
Our precious Princess came to us in 1999 looking for a home. We took her in and from that
point forward she became a large part of our hearts. She was the most gentle, sweet and loving

Seth Murphy
February 8, 2004 - November 9, 2012
Seth was only 8 years old when he went to live in doggy heaven. Seth, my pain in losing you so suddenly is devastating, and the only comfort I feel is in knowing that you are no longer in pain. He was a devoted companion and my protector (always by my side). I will miss him so much; especially at bedtime, when he would show me his stuffed toy bear. I knew it was time to settle in for the day.

Skippy Moneyhun
May 1, 1998 - March 6, 2012
He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds; he is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the way he rests his head against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him (I think it makes him sick...
