Pet Tributes

Kamilli means”the perfect one” in Swahilli. Being a Rhodesian Ridgeback, it seemed fitting. Unfortunately her life before we were able to adopt her was far from perfect. She had been living on her own with 2 other Ridgebacks in the winter. She was 18 mo old when she was rescued. She weighed 47lb. A Ridgeback…

Ginger, you were the first love of my life and it was nothing short of a dream come true when you came into my life 15 years ago. You were sharp as a whip and learned any trick I could think of to teach you. You trusted me entirely and were my constant companion during…
