In Loving Memory

We knew from the second we picked you out of the litter of 9 pups, you were special. Thank you, Lennon, for 14 years of unconditional love.

I love and miss you so much Bruschi. The impact you had on my life cannot be measured. I had 13 (almost 14) wonderful years with you and they were some of the best times of my life. The house feels much emptier now. You were/are incredibly loved and missed by all, especially Kenny and Boomer who also notice your absence. I will share all my photos and videos with the kids when they are older and remind them what a positive effect you had on them during their very early years. You truly were my best friend and I will cherish your memory forever. Until we meet again, I love you buddy.

Spartacus was a great dog that made his way to our home from Kentucky through our local SPCA. We were able to provide him a good 11.5 years of life and love after what was a rough first 2 or 3 years before he was rescued. The Great Pyrenees mix in him kicked in once our children were born and he believed it was his duty to protect them from the imminent threats of joggers, bicycle riders, and the UPS man. He was named Spartacus by his rescuers and we thought that it was fitting to keep it based upon the parallels of his life with the slave-gladiator of Roman history. He wore his cauliflower ears earned in struggle with strength and honor. We will love you and miss you forever.

Missing Kiddo, the “monster purrer”, great brother (from other mothers) to Ozzie, lover of Chloe (Golden Retriever), feisty, curious, brave cat. We tried our best to keep you as long as we could and we will miss you, very much.

Reef, you were golden inside and out. You made our world go around! 6 years was nowhere near enough time with you, but is there ever really enough time? Cancer is a cruel, ruthless monster and we would have taken it away from you if we could! If love could save you, you would have lived forever. We already miss you sitting in our laps, giving us kisses, taking you for walks at the park, “fishing” at the beach, and so much more. We just miss you, sweet boy. You will forever be in our hearts 🐾❤️

Roscoe was the best boy and we miss him everyday!!

The depth of my grief for you feels enormous but I realize it is just love in another form. Thank you for picking me to be your Dad. I would choose it all over again for all of your 9 lives if I could.

Dear Champ, yesterday would have been your 15th Birthday. Your mom and I celebrated your life and all love and joy you brought to ours… but it just wasn’t the same not seeing you in your birthday hat eating your muffin and opening your packages. We both miss you more than words can say, and your mom still cry’s daily missing you. We no longer look forward to coming home to a house without you waiting for us, and there are times I catch myself still looking for you in one of your favorite spots. We don’t tell you these things to make you sad as we know you would be, we just want you to know how much you meant to us, how much we loved you, and how much we have missed you every single day since you’ve been gone.❤️

In loving memory of Luna — wild, sweet, stubborn, and ours forever. Thank you for choosing us. Run free, girl.

Although I had you for a short time, you left a heartfelt long lasting impression on me. You became my girl and a huge part of my family. I loved you very much, you became so special, I miss you. My home feels so empty without you.
