"Misty" February 9, 1996 - June 24, 2008
|
| Misty was my wife's dog, really. Of
course the whole family loved her, too. Especially me. After all, I
was the one who fed her every morning, I was the one who took her on
her walks, and I was the one who gave her the tummy scratches she
loved so much. I never even had to tell her that I loved her. She
just knew. I could see it in her eyes. Dogs are great that way. They
communicate with you through their eyes. We talked to each other all
the time just by looking at each other. She was simply the best dog
anyone could ever have. She brought our whole family so much joy. It was so hard to let her go. We try to take comfort in knowing that she’s no longer in pain and doesn’t have to take all those awful pills anymore. I see her so vividly in my mind every time I mow the lawn and see the empty spot where she used to lay and watch me mow. I never thought I would miss her as much as I do. I sure do miss that little dog. She saw every other dog as a potential friend. Never knew anything different. She loved the water and especially tubing down the river with her family.
I’m sure she’s running and playing and having a wonderful time with all the other dogs at the Rainbow Bridge. I hope there really is such a place. I can’t tell you how wonderful it would be to see her again, someday, full of energy and vitality. I’ll be patiently looking forward to that wonderful day. Until then she will always be with me in my memories.

Princess Moonbeam
|
| I recently lost my
best friend of
18 yrs. She was my constant companion. We went everywhere
together. She has had her feet in both oceans and the gulf
(abhorred swimming...hehe she thought is was to messy). I can't
even begin to express how much she ment to me and how very much I
miss her. We traveled the U.S. and saw many a sight. She was a
lover of lights, from reflections off her dog tags, rainbows from
prisms, to flashlights and the ULTIMATE...LASER TOYS. Boundless
energy but the best of couch potato's as well. Her name you ask
well officialy it was Princess Moonbeam..but she went by Poony or
Peener most the time...my niece couldn't pronounce Moonbeam it came
out PoonPeam and well it stuck:) She was such a wonderful friend
and companion so I thought I would share her with you all...and
until I meet her again in another life, I just want to tell her Hi,
I love n miss her, and that she is still my first thought in the
morning and my last before falling asleep. Carrie |

"Kate"

My Kate Our time with Kate was much too short, but we loved her so. We adopted her at age 7. She was a rescued Sheltie who endured 7 years of reproducing litter after litter. Her beautiful face and "story telling" eyes could melt any heart. Her loving and caring personality could ease any pain. She will never know how much joy she brought to our family. The past 6 months were hard on her as her seizures had taken their toll on her body, but I did not mind caring for her and carrying her everywhere. I loved her so. But I knew that on this December Saturday that I had to let her go. My heart ached along with my husband's and children's. It is so hard to say good-bye. Kate I'm sure, was a wonderful mother to many pups and a great caregiver to other 4 legged friends, but most of all she was an angel to me and my family. And I know in my heart she is an angel among angels. We love you Kate. Mary, Michael, Megan, and Mick Kozenczak |

"Tad" |

Tonight there is another Sheltie Angel in Heaven
Today we lost Tad, our sweet Sheltie boy, to heart failure. We don't know how old he was, he was a rescue and no one was sure of his age, but we had him only 5 years, not nearly long enough. He was such a good little dog, quiet and gentle. Never a demanding dog, he just wanted to be wherever we were. I miss him so much, it happened so suddenly that it's hard to believe he is really gone. He had many health problems which he bore without a complaint, in the end his gentle little heart just gave out. But there is no more pain, no more stiffness, he can run and play again. He joins our other lovely Shelties Cyrille and Molly at Rainbow Bridge, where I know he will be waiting for us. Rest well, my lovely little boy, until I can see you gain. We love you dearly!

My beloved Danny Boy died on March
12, 2009. His passing was at home and peaceful, and for that I'm so
grateful. I'm also grateful for the 12 years Danny enriched my life. I fell in love with him the moment I saw him at a shelter. He was 3 months old. He was the funniest dog I ever knew. He watched the Discovery Channel, loved yellow duckies, and spun in circles at the toaster ticking away, or if he heard the words raccoon, squirrel or bug. Danny also really loved watching horses, and I often took him for trips around town to see them. Following is a poem I wrote several years ago to honor Danny, and to honor all Shelties - a very special breed. DANNY BOY I have a little
Sheltie, When he was just a
puppy I simply had to have
him, At last they brought
him to me, Such joie de vivre for
living, Their days are filled
with wonders, He watches TV with me, He loves the shows
with horses, Dan also runs in
circles, He freaks out from the
toaster And when it's time for
shopping My Danny's such a
crack-up! If we could be like
Shelties, Joanne Lee |
