Sully was my best friend. I miss him so much but his courage and his spirit will always be with me. Aside from being a wonderful dog, Sully dealt with his epilepsy as though it were an occasional problem that he overcame over and over again with bravery and determination. He was determined not to…

Emma passed one day after Mothers Day. She was rescued from a breeder and we adopted her 9 years ago. An angel that did not know how to be a dog. How to play, how to trust, how to eat out of a bowl. After about 6 months Emmie ran to my husband and jumped…

Duncan died last night. I was there, as I promised him I would be, to feel his last heartbeat, to breathe his last breath. Though there are so many tragedies in the world today and every day, and I feel them all, it does not lessen the grief I feel at his passing. Anyone who…

Thank you to Caring Pathways for your donation to the Morris Animal Foundation in memory of my beloved cat, Smokey. When I adopted Smokey from a shelter in Pasadena, CA I was told he was 6 years old. He added so much to my life all the 11 years we were together. For over 3…

Speck (2004 – 2019) We rescued Speck from a shelter in 2004, as we wanted to find a companion cat for my daughter and our other cat, Kelly (1996-2015).  Of all the cats in the shelter’s cat room, I noticed Speck followed me as I walked around the cages looking at the many kittens and…

Nine years ago I was looking at puppies online when I came across a photo of little puppy #96. I immediately called my friend over, pointed at the picture, and told her “That’s my dog.” There was no doubt in my mind. When I went to the rescue to get her, they put her and…
