A PAGE TO REMEMBER AND TO LIVE IN THE NOW
ALL OUR DOGS WHO HAVE ENRICHED OUR LIVES
THIS IS THE PAGE THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO DEDICATE TO THE DOGS WHO HAVE GIVEN ALL THEY HAD TO OUR LIVES AND WE REMEMBER.
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM GAVE US SOMETHING FOR US TO CHERISH AND REMEMBER OVER THEIR TIME WITH US ON THE EARTH.
KELLY WAS WITH US FOR ALMOST 15 YEARS AND WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL BEST FRIEND A MAN COULD ASK FOR AND HE LOVED TO HUNT AND FIND BIRDS FOR US..... WELL HE REALLY WAS HUNTING FOR HIMSELF MOST OF THE TIME BUT IT WAS ALL ABOUT THE FUN OF US GETTING OUT AND DOING IT. HE HAD MANY MOMENTS OF JOY DOING IT AND OF COURSE THERE WERE ALL THOSE TIMES HE STAYED WITH GRAMMA AND GRAMPA WHILE I WAS OFF TRAVELLING. HE USED TO COME TO WORK WITH ME ON MIDNIGHT SHIFTS JUST TO BE THERE AND WHEN I WOULD GET UP SO WOULD HE. WE TRULY WERE SOUL MATES DOG AND MAN. IF YOU EVER MET HIM AND HAD A STORY OR COMMENT YOU WANTED TO SHARE PLEASE DO. HE WAS THE BEST OF THE BEST/
GABRIEL HAD A SHORTER LIFE BUT GAVE IT ALL WHILE HE WAS HERE. HE ALSO LOVED TO HUNT AND CHASE THE BIRDS. HE HAD HIS FINAL TIME WITH A WONDERFUL FAMILY IN SYLVAN LAKE AND THEY USED TO TAKE HIM TO THE LAKESHORE WHERE HE TRULY CHASED THE SEAGULLS ALONG THE SHORE. WE MISS HIM SO MUCH AS DOES HIS FAMILY OF LESLIE AND LEONARD AND KIDS
IT IS FEBRUARY 8TH 2009 TODAY AND IT WAS ONE WEEK AGO TODAY THAT MY BELOVED KASI JOINED HIS KELLY AND GARIEL IN DOG HEAVEN. I BELIEVE THAT WHEN IT IS THE RIGHT TIME OUR COMPANIONS AND FRIENDS TELL US THEY NEED TO GO. KASI DID JUST THAT. SHE HAD A GREAT DAY ON THE DAY BEFORE AND EVEN MY GOOD FRIEND GAIL AND HER SON KIWI SAID JUST THAT IN THEIR OWN WAY. ON THE NEXT DAY KASI SUFFERED A STROKE AND WAS NOT HER NORMAL SELF. AFTER CONSULTATION WITH MY LIFE TIME VET DR GUENTHER I DECIDED THAT SHE NEEDED TO GO TO BE WITH HER KELLY DOG. SHE WAS ABLE TO GO PEACEFULLY AT HOME WITH ME HOLDING HER WHICH WAS SO KIND. SHE HATED GOING TO THE CLINIC FOR ANYTHING AND THAT WOULD HAVE STRESSED HER. THIS WAY SHE WENT CONTENT. KELLY, I DO BELIEVE THAT YOU CALLED HER AND SAID ONCE YOU HAVE SAID YOUR GOODBYES TO THE IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE YOU WILL NEED TO COME TO BE WITH ME. THANK YOU KELLY FOR LETTING US ALL HAVE THAT MOMENT IN TIME WITH YOUR KASI.
TAKE CARE OF HER FOR US AND ONE DAY WE WILL SEE YOU BOTH WITH ALL YOUR FAMILY
LOVE YOU
DAD

THIS IS OUR DRAGON OUR FRIEND MY LITTLE GIRL ...ADRIENNE.
Adrienne was 8 years old when she passed away on us unexpectidly 
on February 10 2009. She went in for a routine spay as her days of producing puppies was over. We made a decision to do this for her. As it happened she had a rough day after surgery but was awake and alert at 6pm. When our trusted friend and vet when back at 730pm to check on her she was already gone. We believe she bled out somehow and that she was meant to go to be with Kasi and Kelly Maddy Gab and all her best friends.
We are very sad and her boy Parker has been especially saddened by her passing but now he has to be who he is without her.
We miss you Adrienne and we will all see you at the rainbow bridge one day
love your family
