Hades Kirkland
May 14, 2005 - June 8, 2011

You & Zeus just had a birthday & mommy cried. It will soon be a year since your tragic death. I hope no one has to see their baby die by choking on a rawhide bone. Daddy tried so hard to save you, the neighbors tried to help, somebody even called a paramedic and the police came to our home...your home and tried to help. No one could help. We lost you & we still grieve.

You were and are the biggest loss we have ever had. It still hurts..we still love you!!!!!

Names we called You because we love You:
Bull Dog Buddy
Bully Buddy
Bulll…Doggg
Big H
He's Just A little Bitty Baby Bull Dog
Mr. Bull-Dog

We tried to be the very Best Mom & Dad a Bull Dog ever had. Your dad worked so hard to make your home in your yard the best, safest place a buddy could ever have. Daddy made you a comfortable house and kennel. You were always warm in the winter and in the summer daddy made you a cool dry place. We will never forget how much you loved your milk-milk and chow. We loved every time we fed you one bite-bite at a time in a spoon. We love and will always remember all of the times we had Apple-Apples and how much you love cheese and Cheetos.

You are the most magnificent & beautiful bulldog we have ever seen. You are the Best of the Best; and you look like the best in show dogs in the Bull dog books.

Your black shiny fur always feels so good to touch, rub, pet and feel. We love to pet you, to scruff up your fur and nooggie your noggin. We love to bathe you, we love to watch you clean your paws; we love to rub your paws. Your paws feel like velvet. We love to play with your ears. We loved it when you flipped your ears back; we would watch to see how long you will leave them back. We love they way you wag your tail and make you own music. We love so much how you wag all over to greet us every time you saw us. We love how you never complained when we sang to you. How you even loved all of the Bull Dog songs. No one who ever met you..even if it was one time...will forget how you could jump so high....up and down like you were on a trampoline. Hades the jumping dog...just like you father Hannibal. We will always remember your Scooby sounds & how you would bark. Thank you for being our Big Dog and for taking care of Us like A Big Dog Should.

Hades

Hairy, 01/01/1999 - 04/05/2012

Hairy was a rescue cat with a funny meow and crumpled ear who loved to be brushed, sit on my shoulder and eat Cheez-Its. He will be missed.

Halle Cat, 2004 - July 5, 2011

Once in a while, someone comes into our lives and changes them entirely. We had an older dog when a child-client of mine picked up a stray kitten in the week before Halloween 2004. She was orange and black with cream-colored accents in her coat—the Halloween-colored cat, Halle Cat--whom it turned out could not be placed, as I’d intended, due to a positive FLV test. Then she conquered FLV with her own immune system in the next few weeks, by which time she had truly become ours. I am allergic to cats, had never owned a cat, and was not a good cat-mom at first. Halle was a Tortoiseshell beauty, but was never easy: jumpy and temperamental, seeming angry for no apparent reason at times, a finicky eater who did not react to catnip until her last few months, but who still gave me a head-butt on that first night with me even though I did not know what a head-butt was at that time. We came to bear each other’s scars and I regretfully had her declawed. Over many months I very gradually taught her to tolerate combing. Over many years she taught me how to accept a cat on her own terms and timetable. She loved sitting on the wide sills of the open windows where we used to live, watching birds and other wildlife and sniffing the air of the outside world from which she ran on the day she came home with me. Now the dog is long dead and there are three other cats in the new house where we now live. Even with a huge new cat tree and other cat amenities here, Halle was increasingly unable to contain her life-long anxiety which resulted in a regretful decision to euthanize her. So I sent her to the Bridge on 7/5/11 and hope that she can be healed of that nervousness which was too intense to live successfully in our domesticated world. Thank you, Halle, for sharing your life with me and Andy and for teaching me to love you and other cats as well. God bless. We hope to meet you and the dogs at the Bridge someday with Phoenix, Opus and Sterling.

Hammy, 09/28/12

Hammy, we miss and love you so much. The abrupt way your life ended has made us feel so much more pain because we feel it was our fault. Since that drive to the emergency vet in the middle of the night I haven't been able to stop crying. You were so loved by so many. Everyone who ever met you, from your vets to your facebook fans absolutely adored you. You were such a sweet and gentle soul, full of energy and a just the littlest bit of trouble-making curiosity.

I could write here all day everything I loved about you, but it is easiest to sum up in that I loved *everything* about you. I miss our nap times together. I miss watching you groom yourself after waking up from our naps. Always making yourself beautiful, even though you were always beautiful to begin with. The softest, most gleaming golden fur. Your adorable yawns ("rawwwwrrrrrr" we used to say when you did that). Your many nicknames. Hoover being one of them, since you vacuumed up every morsel of food and treats you could find and "hid" them in many of your secret hoarding spots.

Our hearts ache for you since you left. The vet told me you didn't suffer before you passed but I can't help thinking you did. I pray you are in a better place now, without pain. I know someday we will meet again and I long for the day I can once again snuggle you in my arms and have your adorable little face peeking up at me.

I will always keep you in my heart. I still feel your presence here. When I get your ashes back, I will put some in your favorite part of the lawn, but I will keep a tiny bit to keep in a heart locket so that I can always have you with me. You are forever loved and missed by your adoring family. I can only hope and pray there are many holes and corners to hide your stashes of treats in up there at the Rainbow Bridge. Wait for me, Hammy. I'll be with you again someday. Until then, have fun and be free.

Love, Jacob, Alex, and Heather

Hanky Angel Owen, 2005 approx - 11/28/2012

To my dear white cat we named Hanky, I miss you and wish you had not crossed the street on wed. My heart aches and misses seeing you flying around so happy and full of goodness..trying to play, a cheerful white blur. You were an angel, easy to take to the vet, like you thought it was nice that we cared, I'll never forget the first drive home from the vet after you were neutered and vaccinated and you sat on the passenger seat watching me drive with a satisfied look..like you felt secure and knew you'd been kept and claimed.. it was a happy day and I enjoyed that moment. Hanky I wish you were still here, and that i protected you from the street. I love you and miss you and hope God and the angels are telling you how much you improved us by knowing you.
i hope you and Comet are playing together and you know my heart.

Hannah, July 1994 - January 6, 2012

To our Hannah, No one could have ever asked for a better friend, companion, confidant. From the day that you entered our lives we knew you would be special and have a very strong hold on our hearts. We had you for 18 wonderful and amazing years. You knew it was time to move on even if it took us longer to realize we needed to say Good bye. Your poor little body was just so tired and you stayed with us until we knew it was time to let you go. We will always miss you, but we have wonderful pictures and memories to hold us until we see you again. Love you Miss Hannah Banana. M & C.

Harley, 10/02/1999 - 12/03/2012

I am so heart broken. She was my best friend, my soul mate, my angel. Harley has been through so much with me over her 13 years here on this earth. I loved that dog and would have done anything in my power for her.
I am so upset that I had to make the choice to have her put down. I found out the day before that she had bone cancer and only about 6 hours after being diagnosed she went down hill fast.
I was at peace to make her final decision, to end her pain and suffering but I had only ever heard how peaceful it was when a dog was "put down". Harley's wasn't so peaceful, she gasped for air and made horrible noises that I can't get out of my head. I feel like by me making the decision to end her life, I am responsible for putting her through that last 45 seconds of misery. I have apologized to her for the last several days over and over again.
I just hope and pray that it is true that we'll meet again someday. I really don't think my life will ever be "normal" again without my angel.

Harley, November 8, 2001 - September 6, 2012

Red, please stay red please stay red
Orange, the last thing you ate
Yellow, the color of your fur
Green, the light is green we must go
Blue, the way I feel
Indigo, you were royalty...to us
Violet, it will take you to the Rainbow Bridge!

Where we meet again...

Heavenly s Little Angel, 12/05/2005 - 03/25/2012

My little Angel was the sunshine in my life. She was a 6 yr old Yorkie hit by a car the day I was suppose to pick her back up from vacation. A great friend of mine was watching her for me and the unthinkable happened. A person in a car hit her and never bothered to stop! She was my 5 pound bundle of joy, my baby girl who slept with me while her Daddy worked. The one who gave me kisses in the morning and kisses at night, the one who was always by my side, or on my lap when I was in the room.She was my baby girl!I can't begin to express the joy and happiness this little girl brought to me.I got to see here before she passed, it was like God let her hold on so we could say goodbye.She will forever be in my heart and pray that one day we will see each other again. Angel loved everyone and she will be missed so much. My Dad has her Mom and my brother has her Grandma, she was a big part of our family and I will never go a day without thinking of my Lil Angel. I love and miss you baby girl...Love Momma

Henry. 1999 - 07/21/2012

Goodbye for now my beautiful boy. You were my best friend in this life. You stayed with me longer than any human being. I love you forever.

Henry Sproat, June 2004 - 22nd August 2012

My beautiful boy Henry. From the first moment I saw you I loved you and wanted to take care of you, I have loved you everyday since. You were a feral kitten, so tiny in such a big world. With our love you blossomed into such a gorgeous tame boy. You have given us so much joy and love and we are so grateful that you let us share your life with us. I didn't know that night was the last time I would see you alive and I'm so sorry I didn't get the chance to say goodbye. I love you so much Hens and I miss you every second. Thank you my darling for the sign, I saw it and I know you're alright. You're with Baby Cakes now and I know you're both safe. We all miss you here so much and I love you with every bit of my heart. I know we'll all be together again one day and never parted again. Until that day my Hens, I love you so so so much and I'm trying to be brave without you here. Love you darling. Mammy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Herbie Puppa T, 8 Sept 2000 - 20 April 2012

Herbie came to us as a rescued dog with his little fluffy toy, not knowing what was happening to him. We took him back home and all Ruby, our other rescued Pointer could do was have a go at him! Mrs T slept downstairs with Herbie that night. The next day was better and he slept with us that night in our bed and never stirred. In the morning, he awoke a different dog and thereafter we had 11 years of pure joy - our lovely smiling doggie. Thank you Herb for all the happiness. We miss you more than we can say. Now we look at your fluffy toy we kept all these years and feel so terribly sad. We hug it in the hope of feeling your furry body again. But of course we won't til we meet again at Rainbow Bridge. We have cried rivers for you Herbie and simply want you back home. You are a gorgeous soul. The photo is entitled "Angel with a dirty face". He loved to camouflage himself.

God rest your soul and keep you safe til we meet again our dear sweet Puppa Herb. We love you. Love Mummy and Daddy and your "siblings" Hector, Humphrey and Inca xxxxx

Hercules, 08/05/96 - 07/22/09

You were and still are my Guardian Angel. You came to me when I needed you the most, giving both of us a second chance. God decided to take you from me, because he knew I would soon be needed somewhere you could not go. There is not a day I do not miss you. I know we will meet again someday at the Rainbow Bridge.

Hercules My Dandy Buddy(Herc), 03-15-1990 - 10-04-2008

Hercules, I will never forget you. I can't wait to see you and your mother, Daisy at Rainbow Bridge.

HigginZ, 1997 - 02/15/12

HigginZ (aka HiggZ, WiggZ, Wiglet, Bud, Budley) - Your picture 'behind bars' caught my heart and we adopted each other a short 2 1/2 years ago. I liked telling everyone about my 'handsome old guy', and you taught me much about being calm, patient, tolerant, and dignified! There are so many words to describe you - aloof, stubborn, calm, stoic, regal, dignified, and sometimes even silly! A quick lick on the hand was about as affectionate as you would get, but you would always follow me around and make sure that you sat within a few feet of wherever I landed. I'd like to think that crushed spirit in the picture became the independent and royal canine you were intended to be.

You seemed to blossom and come into your own, and I will always remember the day I came home from work and you were sitting at the top of the stairs: and finally trusted me enough to look me directly in the eyes and keep that gaze for several minutes. Finally, after nearly a year together - TRIUMPH! I was proud and humbled by that gesture and will always remember it.

I can only hope you know how much you are loved and will be missed. You slowly and steadily wormed your way into not only my heart, but also your "grand-kids", the rest of the family, your 2nd "Mom" Lynn, and virtually everyone with whom you came into contact.

I'm comforted knowing you have hooked up with the rest of our pet clan, are walking and running without pain, no longer being subjected to taking awful medicines, and are surveying all that is yours from a new version of your 'plant cave'. I will see at the bridge when you come to greet me.

Holly, 1997 - March 15, 2012

I was contacted by the rescue group in December 1997 after they had taken in a young female Dalmatian. When I first saw her, she was very thin, was recovering from her spay surgery, and going through a false pregnancy. What a pathetic sight. She put her paws on my chest and buried her head in my stomach, and rolled her eyes as if asking "be my mom". We named her Holly and she joined our family the week before Christmas. She instantly became friends with our Dalmatian puppy, Annie, a deep bond which lasted the rest of her life. Holly was a wild child. There wasn't a towel or slipper safe in the house. Even after four obedience classes, she still insisted on stealing things to make us or anyone around laugh. Our house was filled with joy and laughter until the end. Holly traveled to 27 states and 2 Canadian provinces with us in the RV, making friends wherever she went. She had birthdays at Three Dog Bakery, loved to go out in the boat or splash in her wading pool, and take afternoon naps on the guest room bed. As Old Age began to take its toll, she became mellow and sweeter by the day. She seemed more tired than usual, but we attributed it to her age. As we were leaving for her six-month check up a the vet, she suffered a stroke. Testing showed she had advanced leukemia. In shock, we hugged our beautiful girl in the vet's office as she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We are left with a huge hole in our hearts. Tears are still flowing. Her personality filled the house and the emptiness will always be felt. Annie mourned so deeply we thought she would be joining Holly soon. A new little spotted guy has joined the family, but the pain of losing Holly hasn't faded.

The only thing that keeps us going is knowing that we will be reunited someday.

Sleep well our spotted big girl.

Love Always,
Mom, Dad, and Annie

Honey Bear, March 23, 1996 - November 21, 2011

No words are big enough to adequately describe Honey Bear's personality and what she meant to me and others who knew her. She had expression, attitude, and personality that was all her own. She didn't like other dogs, tolerated cats, but loved people. Her favorite places were the kitchen and what we called "The Friday Spot." She loved to sit while I cooked and would scarf up whatever happened to fall on the floor - lettuce, cucumbers, mushrooms - it rarely mattered what it was, she'd eat it. But her favorite was cheese. "The Friday Spot" was where we would snuggle while watching TV on Friday nights. These were some of our favorite times together. She also loved her bed. And when she was ready to go to bed, she would just go. She liked to nest and root in her bed. We called this her show. It was quite entertaining to see her happily thrash about in her bed. She also loved to travel and would get so excited when we'd pack up the car because she knew we were going bye-bye. She hated baths but loved when they were over. She'd tear through the house and dance around. She was the best dog and can never be replaced. She never tore anything up or did other bad doggie things I've heard about (well there was the time she pulled the Christmas tree down, and then that time she ate a bag of Easter candy - but that's when she was a puppy). There's so much more I can say, but it doesn't begin to do her justice.It's been 3 months since she passed of kidney failure, and I still miss her terribly. Although, 15 years is a long time, it wasn't long enough. I miss you, Honey Bear, and I know there will never be another dog like you.

Hoover, 1993 - 2012

You'll be remembered, old man, as your person is remembered. He had to leave you behind and go to the Rainbow Bridge before you. Now, you have followed and the two of you will be together again. Love doesn't ever die and you were both dearly loved.

Your family

Hoss, 7/4/1998 - 8/1/2012

Hoss, we love you so much. When you came into our life - we loved you at sight. We hope you had a good life with us and was happy. And, of course we know you did - I will not live without thinking of you each day. Go find your brother, Handsome Jack and play like puppies.

Houdini, 13 years old 08/03/2012

My dear Houdini,
What a blessing you have been to me. I know we were meant to be together. you were such a mama's boy and I loved you for it. I will miss our conversations, you would meow as if you understood me and I understood you. you would jump up on the bed before I would go to work, meowing your head off till I loved on you, then I tried to leave and you would try to grab me. There are so many reason why I loved you and what I am going to miss. your beautiful eyes that would look up up at me, I could see your soul through you eyes, I knew how much you loved me. I'll miss picking you up and patting you like a baby. I'll just miss you! I love you Houdini!

Huntdog, 4/29/95 - 9/19/07

Hey Baby Boy. It's been 5 years today since I lost half of my heart. Throughout these 5 years you have been on my mind daily. You were such an amazing friend to me and you brought me so much joy. You lived a good life and I find peace in that now. I trust that your looking down watching over me as always and that you understand about Gypsy. She needed my help. God needed me to help her. SHE WILL NEVER REPLACE YOU OR FILL ONE SPEC OF YOUR VOID IN MY HEART. I miss you so much baby boy. Please keep watching over me and send me much needed strength. I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN. Love Chris
