Carson, Mar 28, 2009 - May 15 2015
Goodbye till we all get together again our sweet
Carson. We love you
Have happy times with Hector now.
Cecil, 01/01/2000 - 01/22/2016 
We'll never forget you Cecil,
You were a special friend of ours
You had your own personality,
You kept us enthralled for hours.
You lived a long sixteen years,
You lived to that ripe old age.
The book of life does not end right here,
It's merely time to turn the page.
Your travels have brought you
To the Rainbow Bridge at last.
Always look forward to the future, Cecil,
But never forget the past.
It's time to say goodbye for now,
We'll see you again someday.
Look for Ivy in the lush green grass,
It's time to let her show you the way.
We love you Cecil, and we always will.
Chance, 7/2/01 - 8/22/16
Bon Chance (Good Luck) was a rescue I got on Friday the 13th, in
February, 2004. It was a lucky day for both of us. Chance was a
Lhasa/Bichon mix, so he was very loving and expressive, but had an
independent, willful streak that I loved. He loved people and
other dogs, was a picky eater, and did not like the cat. He had a
good long life and he had me to take care of him as he aged. He
was very loving and hated to be ignored. He was a great dog and he
will be missed.

We lost our dearest ten year old beagle to a quick spreading &
untreatable form of cancer last night by making the hardest yet
most selfless decision of putting him out of the pain he'd been
suffering. He was constantly loyal, unbelievably sweet, so
handsome and amazingly goofy. We will never find another
like him and he'll always have a piece of our (his) families
hearts. Our other fur baby misses him so as well.
"People are born so that they can learn how to live a good Life —
like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well,
dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as
long.” ~ spoken by a 6 year old boy who had just lost his
family’s 10 year old, Belker, to cancer.
Chester, May 11, 2002 - 9/14/2016
Chester was the most loving dog I've owned in my life and I'm 68
years old. I got him after my husband passed in 2003 so
Chester was my companion dog. Chester lived his life
pleasing me, always doing what I asked, he had great manners, and
loved my daughter as much as I do. I know he's in a better
place free from pain, medicine and disease, I miss him sorely and
love him to the moon and back.
Chester is a American English Foxhound and a fine specimen of a
dog and his breed, he loved to track the deer, chase the squirrels
up the tree, and protect the yard. He loved ice cream and we
often went to Dairy Queen for vanilla, lots of people loved
watching him lick that cone. He was a rescue I adopted
him out in Union Ridge, North Carolina.
Be looking for me Chester and I'll meet up with you one of these
days my fine beautiful friend and thanks for all the love you gave
me. Shine in the light of God's love which I know you are
doing. Love and more love to you.

Chevy, 01/26/2016
Sweet Chevy was my companion for 18 years I will always remember
her and l and love her with all my heart her with all my heart
Chewie, May 1, 2005 - November 6, 2016
Today Chewie went over the Rainbow Bridge. He was my best friend.
His sense of humor got me through rough times. But it was his turn
to go and it was agonizing to know it was time to let him go. He
is pain free now, I will be ok little buddy, thank you for coming
into my life and making it so much better. Say hi to JB and Fiona.
Miss you my friend and will see you soon, love forever from your
heartbroken mom.
Chewy, 01/16/2007 - 1/2/2016
You were so full of love & life. The joy you brought me was
immeasurable. I have such a void, I am in such shock & pain. I
miss you by my side day & night. I loved you so much. I know
we will be together again. You were an awesome baby boy.
Chi Chi, 08/21/2003 - 09/26/2016
Chi Chi was always the sassiest chihuahua that has ever
lived. Her love of playing with squeaky toys and annoying
her baby brother will keep me smiling through my sadness.
I'll never forget the first time I took her home and everyone just
fell in love with her. She was a sweet caring girl and was
always available for snuggles and belly rubs. When she got sick I
was devastated and couldn't fathom losing her, but I chose mercy
instead of watching her waste away. It was a hard choice and
I'll miss her forever. At least I was there with her, and
could hold her while she went to sleep. I truly believe I will see
her again one day when I find that rainbow bridge.
ChiChi, March 24 2002 - Feb., 12
2016
Our most precious and dearest friend,
we are lost without you. The 14 years we spent together
were memorable to say the least. You were
always there for us, such a kind gentle giant. You were an
amazing and beautiful animal. We are
missing you more than words can
express. A huge void in our life
not to have you here with us. Forever in our hearts.
Eleanor & Bjorn Roberts-Hansen
Chloe, 12/7/2016
Chloe was a great dog. Although she was slow to warm up to us
when we rescued her, she was a loyal and faithful watchdog once
she decided the food was good at her new home and we would
happily tuck her in our coats to go outside with her in the
cold. A tea-cup chihuahua, she easily could peak her little head
out of the top of our down coats. She had a big cattle dog as
her body-guard and loved sunning herself in our light filled
back bedroom. Every night she would sleep under the covers by my
mom's feet. She stopping nipping at our hands when she realized
she had hit the lottery with her new people.
Chloe outlived Candy, her bigger pal by about 4 years. She was
lonely at first but eventually liked being the only dog of the
house. When my mom moved in with my grandmother, Chloe became
her constant companion (probably because mom-mom was getting
forgetful and frequently fed her stuff she never would have
gotten from us.
We will miss her but we rest assured knowing she is with her
buddy now in heaven and that she was happy with us.
Chloe, 2/23/05 - 5/23/15
To my girl,
I miss you just as much as the day you passed. All others
must rise to your standard. You are and were my sweet
girl. Thank you for teaching me so much. I
hope and pray we meet again. You were one special dog,
taken too soon.
I love you Chloe Girl!!
Your doggy mom,
Jennifer

CJ, July 27, 2015 - July 20, 2016
A beautiful creature graced us with his being and left us quietly.
A hole will forever be in our hearts as we mourn the extraordinary
loss of his absence in our lives. We will honor his memory by
striving to be more like him and love life the way he did because
he is truly gone too soon.
We love you CJ, we miss you every day and we will never forget you
- we will see you at the Rainbow Bridge.
Coco, 5/13/99 - 9/18/16
I miss you Coco, my angel. You brought so much love to my life.
There's a big hole in my heart because you're no longer by my
side.
Can't wait until we're together again.
Love you forever.
Mommy

Coco, April 25, 2003 - February 25,
2016
My heart is broken in a million pieces and the tears continuously
flow. I prayed to change places with you, I just didn't realize
the amount of pain I would be in. You brought me so much
love and joy, I wish I knew how sick you were. I am so sorry for
all the treatments - such a tough decision but you went your way,
peacefully under sedation. To hold your little body and feel your
tiny bones will always be imbedded in my brain. Run free my
sweet angel. I will love you forever.
Coco Chanel Martinez Fry, December 7,
2007 - July 9, 2014
My dear sweet Coco…how I miss you. You were our first little
white dog. How I miss you running up to me and greeting me
whenever I would come visit you. I miss your bark. My
sweet Coco, you were the smartest dog in the family. I loved
how you would not take your eyes off the squeaky tennis ball and
how you would sit and never take your eyes off the ball until I
threw it to you. Your small paws would move gingerly
slightly as you prepared to jump up and catch the
ball. And…you always did! Rarely did you
miss it.
I remember when you first came to my home on Pheasant Lane…you
were so small and so sweet. Always a sweet girl. Well
behaved my sweet Coco Puff and so darn smart. You’ve been
gone almost two weeks now. Barely seven years old, I guess
Rainbow Bridge needed you there to teach the other dogs how to
catch the tennis ball! The last time I went to your home…it
was different…you were not there.
I love you Coco so much and I will never forget you. I know
it was very difficult for Andrea to see you get sick so suddenly
and when she called me frantically, crying on the way to the vet
in the dark. She was just as scared as you were. I
don’t know what happened to you. I can only guess. I
remember Andrea calling me and telling me that you were
gone. I called Jerry right away and we both felt so sad….so
so sad. Jerry loved you so much and he wanted you. I
cried for days. Going back to Andrea’s house the first time
after you left us was so difficult. You were nowhere to be
seen and I could hear no barking. Your brother Tucker misses
you sweet girl. You had the loudest bark ever! I guess
you met your other brother “Lucky.” He was waiting there to
greet you. Goodbye Coco Chanel…you will be missed by all of
us. Laura, Jerry, Andrea, Preston, Colton & Tucker
Cody, 3/19/2002 - 5/16/2016
Sherrill and I miss you so much. We know you are in a better place
looking down own us. You are our guardian angel. Thank you for
sharing your love with us and being such a big part of our family.
Say hello to everyone. You will always be in our hearts and never
forgotten.
Cody, Dec. 01, 2003 - Apr. 1, 2016
My dear Cody, Having to say good by to you today was one of the
most heartbreaking, painful things I have ever had to
do. How can I thank you for the 12 years of love and
laughter that you unconditionally gave us? Or the
happiness you gave to so many? People encircled you and took
pictures wherever we went. I was always so proud of
you. I hope that your pain is now erased and that you have
found old friends like Cosmo and Kiska so that you are not
frightened or alone. I hope that you have endless snow in
which you can run like the wind again. It is so empty and
quiet here and I look at your empty bed next to mine and the sofa
we shared and shed endless tears. I ache to hold you in my
arms again. Wait for me, my best buddy, one day I look
forward to us being together again. Sending you endless hugs
and pats and scratches. All my love, Mama
Cookie Reba, 10-2-16
In honor of Cookie (please read the whole post):
With a heavy heart Nick and I would like to share the sad news
that Cookie passed away early this morning (Oct.
2). This past Thursday she went back to the vet
specialist because she just wasn’t feeling like
herself. We found out her kidney count was inclining,
she had an IV for 48 hours, then her kidney count rapidly improved
and she came home yesterday (Oct. 1). We had a good
day together; a walk, treats, and loving on
her. While we getting ready for bed and Cookie
was trying to throw-up but couldn’t. We rushed her to
the emergency vets and took x-rays. The x-rays showed
her body was shutting down; fluid in lungs, enlarged heart, and
other issues (it was the perfect storm). Nick and I
were at her side as she crossed the rainbow bridge. We told
her that we loved her and she was our good girl.
We are comforted knowing that we did everything possible for
her. We knew she felt loved over the 4 years we had her and
gave the best life possible.
Cookie had a “Cinderella” start in life. In the spring of
2012, she was found on the streets by a car audition house in
Houston. The workers coaxed her in their
building and fed her danishes and cookies out of the vending
machine (and that’s how she got her name
Cookie). She was then turned over to the Houston
Sheltie Sanctuary to treat her medical needs and eventually find
her forever home. During that time I wanted another
sheltie and I saw her picture on the website and fell in
love. Through the years Cookie still kept a close
relationship with her foster mom Nancy Holcomb; Cookie loved her
dearly.
My heart is broken. Cookie was truly my dog; my little girl,
she followed me everywhere, and my constant companion.
She loved to sing, spin around in her sheltie circles, was always
happy to see Nick and I when we came home. I still remember
the day we brought her home so vividly in my mind.
We tried different dog sports and found her love for nosework and
she was awesome at it. She had such a special
nose. She passed her odor test last fall and I was hoping
this up-coming year to start going to trails.
Cookie was special to Nick and I and we cannot expressed how much
we loved her. Our home and hearts feels empty without
her.
Cooper, 3/15/02 - 4/18/16
Little Cooper - We love you with all the love we have in our
hearts and will miss you. Now You, Ludlow and B.J. are
together. Philip & David
Cordy, June 30, 2000 - March 21, 2016
My dear Cordy,
Words alone cannot express my devastating grief upon hearing of
your passing from this earth... Sasha and I miss you so much. What
does console me and Sasha a little is knowing that you are with
our beloved Nikko, Tiger, and Smokey now; waiting for us all to be
reunited at the Rainbow Bridge. Your mommy and your sister Sasha
will always love you and miss you. You are forever in our hearts.
We love you,
Mommy and Sasha.
Coty Miller, 05/25/2002 - 09/13/16

4 legged baby.I know you arent in anymore pain I will miss your
scolding of me when you couldn't go with me and cuddling and doggy
kisses til mamma and daddy sees you again love you my little
cotybug.
Cubby, 10-28-2006 - 1-7-2016
My little Boobear. I am lost without you. You were the only thing
in my life that gave me love and even the day you were dying of
cancer, you were waiting at that bottom of the stairs for me. You
never wanted me to see your pain and suffering. You were so
courageous and brave and I prayed for ten long month and God
heard me. You died in my arms. I know I couldn't make you stay or
go with you but someday we will see each other again and my little
boy it will be the most glorious day for us. Until then you have a
part of me that went with you that day you died. I love and miss
you little one. Your mommie loves you.
Curly Carrington, 6/1/2006 - 6/30/2016
Escape Curly to the tranquil Place. Sleeping on a bed of
catnip. Freedom is yours and may you find your peace.
We loved you and continue so.... You endured mightily, but
complained little. When you arrived at a time of sorrow,
comfort and joy was given freely. We feel your presence and
we know you are serene. All are with you; guiding to
new found vines, birds and lounging spaces. We will miss
you, but not forget you. Love you. Comfort is your now and
forever!
Cyril, April 4,1988 - May
14,2016
I'll love you forever, my baby you'll always be. You are my
sunshine, the bright blue sky, the towering white clouds,the green
of the leaves in the trees and the grass underneath my feet.
You are the greatest bird ever.
Reunited with Miss Ellery, until we meet again.
Good boy.
Mommy Beak
