We Remember Zoe
ZOE: July 15, 1998 - July 18, 2009
Zoe was born on July 15,
1998. When my family and I went to pick her up, she was just a puppy. She was so
small she could fit right in my two hands. She grew up with us and became a
member of our family very quickly. She was a very good friend to our 8 year old
schnauzer, Louie.
Zoe was a great dog. She was
diagnosed with cancer in February 2009. She went through treatments for about 5
months, and the cancer began to spread. We had to put her to rest at age 11, on
July 18, 2009.
R.I.P. ZOE! WE LOVE YOU!

We Remember Funny
January 21, 1994 – May 17, 2009
Funny had frequent flier
miles at Companion Animal Hospital! After going through five surgeries with Dr.
Craig Ritchie and the crew at Companion, Funny earned the distinction of being
my $15,000 dollar dog! Funny’s surgeries included two cranial cruciate TLPO
surgeries, cancer surgery, and two eye surgeries. I would do it all
again. The care she received at Companion helped Funny to be a true ambassador
for the American Pit Terrier by participating in numerous fairs, symposiums,
school assembles, and educational seminars geared toward public education and
teaching children about responsible dog ownership. Funny performed a series of
tricks and maneuvers in front of thousands of people, often on stage in front of
hundreds. |

Her black and white coloring
gave her a distinct advantage with children who associated her markings with
Walt Disney’s 101 Dalmatians. NOT! Despite her two knee surgeries, Funny
became the oldest dog to earn her Weight Pull championship with the United
Kennel Club at 11 years and 11 months old! Funny graced a number of lives in
her 15 ½ years and will be sorely missed. I cannot thank Dr. Ritchie enough for
ensuring that Funny had the quality of life that she deserved. Funny passed
away quietly on May 17, 2009 in her sleep.

*~ Kenya~* 1990/1991 –

We Remember Kenya
I found Kenya at a
pound in Santa Monica, CA in 1992. (My friend wanted me to go with him to the
pound to get himself a dog. He walked out with nothing and I walked out
with Kenya). She was already about 1-1 ½ yrs old at the time. She went
everywhere with me! Then we moved to NYC where she went to work with
me everyday, Central Park every weekend! Everyone in the
immediate Manhattan area knew her and her name. She was the sweetest dog I have
ever had! Wouldn’t hurt a cat! I have 2 cats she hung out with all the time (who
are also both 17 yrs old now). She then moved again, 8 years ago, with me
to Seattle where she lived out the rest of her life.
This was the hardest
thing in the world for me to decide on and go through but I think she will rest
in peace not having to worry about laying there watching me and not always being
able to get up on her own or messing in her bed. I will miss her tremendously
because she was with me through thick and thin and for so many years. I can't
believe she is gone... L

We Remember Sonny
1989 ? ~ February 1, 2008
Sonny (aka Mr. T ) came
to us as a stray many years ago, and never again strayed from our lives. He had
the most amazing personality! We sometimes called him a "cat-shaped dog". If
the real dog was not around, Mr. T would follow us everywhere and beg for
treats if I happened to be in the kitchen.
We never knew exactly
how old he was but, thankfully he lived to a ripe old age. Sonny was dearly
loved and will be greatly missed. He'll be in our hearts always. Rest in peace
sweet boy.
Our thanks to Emilee for Sonny's
Memorial Tribute

We Remember Tuffer
1/9/2002
-11/15/2007
We first met Tuffer as
a five week old puppy with his nine siblings. Even then he was very
people-centric, waiting at our feet for attention when all his siblings were
returning to their crate for a nap. After we brought him home, we saw him grow
from a lovable pup to a beautiful adult who looked and acted like a giant teddy
bear.
|
|
People stopped us on the street to ask about him, and everywhere he went
people literally fell in love with him. He was with us just five short years
when cancer claimed him. His loss is devastating and leaves a hole in our lives
that can never be filled, but we remember him with love and joy for the
happiness he brought to our lives. Goodbye Tuffer, we miss you. We'll see you at
the Rainbow Bridge. |
