Precious Pet

Memorials & Tributes

Trixie

Oct 2005-Feb 2022

We first met in April 2007. You were found starving in a ditch in Darlingford, I was mourning the loss of my dogs Tasha and Max. It was the start of a beautiful love story. It took 2 years to overcome your separation anxiety. You partook in obedience, agility, rally sports, went to dog day care, and ran in off leash dog parks, gaining confidence, built trust that I would always come back. I gained home repair skills, and learned not to leave shoes or any objects I liked within your reach. Along the way we met many friends, both 2 and 4 legged.

You were such a sweet, smart girl, learning from observation how to open fridge door, windows (greeted me in backyard when I knew I left you in the house!), screen door (slid it open to get out). You even walked up a ramp to the roof to get to me last summer. You loved being at the lake. Swimming, kayaking, chasing away bears, going for long walks, just being outside.

You were my best friend and constant companion, my heart is broken having to say goodbye. My joy has vanished, only sorrow is left. You're pain free now, playing with all your friends. Your sweet soul and spirit will always be with me.

Love you forever,

Brenda

Chloe

Oct 26,2008-Jan 29, 2022

Sonar

April 9, 2008 - October 19, 2020

Sonar was a very loyal companion and gentle dog. His favourite toy was his squeaky ball and he would lay outside squeaking it for hours. He loved it so much he would fall asleep squeaking. He was always patient with other dogs and did not have a mean bone in his body.

I will miss this big guy so much every day.
Rest In Peace my friend and run like a pup again!

Love you Sonar

Taz (AKA: Piggy)

2007-2019

12 years you were in my life. You were my first dog. I remember the day I brought you home. Just a fat little butterball of cuteness you were. So excited and full of curiosity. You didn't stay little for long though. You had so much energy! Runs on my bike with you were one of my favourite things to do. It sure calmed your a** down! You kept me safe when I was alone. Such a loyal protector you were. I can't thank you enough for how you treated my babies. 6 years you protected them and loved them as your own. You were so good and gentle with them. They love you so much. It was one heck of an adventure with you by my side the whole way. I got to watch you turn old and grey. It pains me to know you won't be waiting by the door when we come home but I know you're with us in spirit. You were a good boy.

I will love you forever Piggy and I will miss you always. Rest easy my handsome boy. Love: Mama, Daddy, Jacob, Jaxon and your fur siblings Milo and Otis

A Parting Prayer Dear Lord, please open your gates and call St. Francis to come escort this beloved companion across the Rainbow Bridge.
Assign her to a place of honor, for she has been a faithful servant and has always done her best to please me.
Bless the hands that send her to you, for they are doing so in love and compassion, freeing her from pain and suffering.
Grant me the stength not to dwell on my loss. Help me remember the details of her life with the love she has shown me. And grant me the courage to honor her by sharing those memories with others.
Let her remember me as well and let her know that I will always love her. And when it's my time to pass over into your paradise, please allow her to accompany those who will bring me home.
Thank you, Lord, for the gift of her companionship and for the time we've had together.
And thank you, Lord, for granting me the strength to give her to you now.

"So fly away and wait for me at the Rainbow's end, at the Rainbow Bridge. Just wait for me and I'll be there."

Love forever,
Your Mom and Papa

The Power Of A Pet - KO

My lovely cat, Ko, passed away February 23rd, 2012. He would have been age 16 this year. Ko was the Hydro rescue cat, who was rescued by Hyrdo staff from a blizzard where his paws were frozen in the snow. The cat was rescued, feet were fixed up, and it lived in the hyrdo warehouse. Eventually the cat needed a home, and found its way to my place. This owner was undergoing severe bullying for the last 7 years, and the power of a pet, one cannot describe. The presence of this little cat, named Ko, was that it gave one something to come home to and comfort one, in times of great bullying. Many days one sat crying and this cat would sit close, and make one feel not so bad about the bullying. My cat passed away Feb. 23rd, 2012, and it waited for me before it passed away, thank you Ko (Kosta Rico Sauve). At peace at the Rainbow Bridge Dear Ko. This cat taught me, that thru all the bullying, there aways was, THE healing POWER OF A PET. Thank you Ko.

In loving memory of Coda

2002-2010

I Only Wanted You

They say memories are golden, well maybe that is true I never wanted memories, I only wanted you. A milion times I needed you, a million times I creid, If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. Thank you God, for giving us Coda.

Sadly missed by Marvn & Joanne Canine "Brother Jake" and Feline siblings, "Purpur, Benson & Cirina"

Buck

1996 - 2005

My friend Buck, I recall The times we had and they're hanging on my wall I wouldn't trade them for gold Because they make me laugh and they make me cry
All the times, the running and ball chasing, The licks and the bear hugs and the people and the places You were always there by my side And I miss you beyond belief
And my old friend, I apologize For not being around to say goodbye You left us too soon, and this is my way Of telling the tale that you were here and That the love and the laughter will live long after All the sadness and the tears

And we'll meet again, my old friend. Until then.

Tracey

In Loving Memory of Our Beloved Friend Attika

January 3, 1997 - May 19, 2005

We thought of you with love today, If love could have saved you, You never would have passed away. Your family is sad and broken-hearted, And nothing seems the same, But your sweet memory will not depart, because you've left paw prints on our hearts.

Love and miss you always,
Dad, Mom, and family

In Loving Memory of Jasmine

Murphy

1990-2006

In Loving Memory

Murphy, you were my precious pet for almost 16 years, how do I say good-bye to that kind of love. You gave so much and asked for so little in return. When you died, part of me died with you. The pain of losing you was so intense that I never knew such pain in my life.
Your last weeks were tremendously difficult as I watched you cope with your cancer and I struggled with the question of doing what was best for you. In the end you saved your best gift to me till the end by taking that decision out of my hands.
But even if I had known how intense the pain would be to lose you, I would never have chosen to miss that pain because to miss that pain, I would have had to miss the dance we shared for almost 16 years. Thank you Murphy for the best dance of my life. Till we meet again at Rainbow Bridge my MurphyDoodle.

Love, Mommy

Max

1991 - 2006

You'll always be my Main Man my dear Max. You came into my life from a farmer's field in Morris and brought pure happiness and joy into my life.
We shared many great adventures together from Ontario through to B.C. Your love of life was infectious. You won everyone's heart, and will be sadly, greatly missed by all.
I'll love you forever, thank you for being my friend and guardian angel,

Love, Brenda

Tasha

1987 - 2007

My precious princess Tasha. You're together again with your buddy Max, running and playing. You looked after both Max and me, teaching us many lessons. You were the best friend and protector I could have. You loved exploring and the outdoors. I shall miss your bossing me around, letting me know when it was time for walks, dinner, or just attention. You were gentle, loving, incredibly intelligent and independent. I shall love you forever, and miss you immensely.

Love, Brenda

Lady

1989 - 2007

In loving memory Rest in peace little buddy

IN LOVING MEMORY OF ZEB Our 9 ½ Year Old GENTLE GIANT

ZEB was more than just a pet. He was our best friend and a role model. We adopted ZEB from the Humane Society as a 3-month-old abused puppy - his coat was tattered and scruffy-looking and he had horrible scars on his mouth. He had suffered from malnutrition and had a bad odor about him.
In time, with Lots of Love and Care, ZEB grew into a beautiful and majestic-looking King Shepherd cross of about 105 lbs. Both people and pets we encountered on our daily walks loved ZEB. He was always Playful, Friendly, Gentle and he Loved LIFE.
As a role model, he was the Ambassador of Goodwill, welcoming all to his 'Field'
ZEB taught us how to get along with others and their pets by his example. From watching ZEB, you would learn tolerance of others even if some didn't seem caring.
ZEB was a quiet boy who rarely barked. ZEB was a gentle and passionate dog who will be painfully missed.
When ZEB left us suddenly, he took a large chunk of our life with him.
We LOVE you ZEB and look forward to meeting you again in the next LIFE!
Rest in Peace
Your Dad and Mom Ken and Val Waldbauer

Tribute To Our Zack

1994 to 2007

ZACK was a best little friend to ZEB and to all of us in his family. ZACK was just under 10 lbs and ZEB was 105 lbs! He was frisky, mischievous and sweet. Until May 2007 three buddies included ZACK, his older brother ZEKE, and ZEB. ZACK left us in May and ZEB left us in June. Watching ZACK and ZEB play was magic - ZACK on his hind legs mock-slapping ZEB's big face was a rib-splitter. ZEB chased ZACK, licked his little head till it was very wet, and all the while, ZEKE lay lazily by just watching through half-closed dreamy eyes. Then they would all lay down for a long nap till the next round. We miss you ZACK but know you are in a good safe place with ZEB now looking after you once more!

Our Love Always, Val and Ken Waldbauer

Tribute To Our Zeke

1994 to 2008

Zeke was loving, beautiful both inside and out, and our first of the boys to come into our home. He enriched our lives - first to arrive and the last to leave - our hearts were empty but alive with memories! ZEKE was a best big buddy to ZACK and a best little friend to ZEB and to all of us in his family. Until November 2008 the three buddies included ZEKE, his younger brother ZACK, and ZEB. ZACK left us in May ZEB left us in June. Watching our boys play was magic - then they would all lay down for a long nap till the next round. We miss you ZEKE but know you are in a good safe place with ZEB and ZACK now looking out for you once more!

Our Love Always, Val and Ken Waldbauer

Buddy 'Kat'

Willow

1993-2009

She is gone from our sight but never our memory, gone from our hearing but never our hearts, gone from our touch but her presence is felt, and the love that she gave us never departs

Pinky

I got Pinky when I was six years old and she was just a kitten. We grew up in the small town of Lowe Farm and later moved to Morris and Winnipeg. Pinky's last home was in Steinbach. She passed on March 16, 2009 at the age of 19. Pinky had kidney disease. Pinky was a very quiet, polite and independent cat. When she was young, she had a lot of kittens and she loved having kittens. It was her biggest joy in life. She also liked to eat a lot. She didn't play much but when she did, it was that much more special. Her favorite toys were bouncy balls from those vending machines. Pinky always had her tounge out, like she forgot to but it back in her mouth after bathing. It was one of the reasons for her name. Pinky was and still is everything to me. When other people would be out doing whatever it is people do, I would be hanging out with my child, my best friend and the love of my life and never wished it to be any other way. She made my life whole, content and happy. She showed me that the meaning to life is love, the unconditional love that we share. I have always and will always love her more than words could possibly begin to express. You are my sunshine Pinky and I love you very much.

Pinky in my pocket:

Pinky was sick so I let her go home now I keep her in my pocket so I am not alone
I keep Pinky in my book so she is there when I read
and when I am finished she is the last thing that I see
I keep Pinky in my purse because I always have it with me I take her out to show the world so her beauty they can too see
I keep Pinky on my nightstand so I can tell her goodnight and in the morning when I wake up she is the first thing in my sight
I keep Pinky in my heart because without her it would not beat everything else life can take away but Pinky in my heart I will keep

Our dear baby boy you will never be replaced, and always be in our hearts.

With lots of
Mommy and Daddy
and family

Dusty Stevens

July, 1992- January 10, 2010

You were a member of our family for so very long - so full of life, energy and cuddles. We miss seeing you at the door, waiting to greet us and to make your escape into the fresh air. You were committed to staying with us, outliving two companions and even making your way safely home after being lost outside for two weeks. Even in the end, you were so strong to last for as long as you did. We are glad you are no longer suffering, but will love you and miss you always.

Nala Stevens

1996 - February 14, 2008

Rescued by Mommy Sandi you started off so tiny, but you grew into a little chubbster with a lot of love and a lot of nibbling. You were so cute with your and your short little legs kicked up in the air for a belly rub. You were cuddly - on your terms - and a great pal to Felix. Always easily spooked, you ventured outside only at night, to safely chase the bugs and never went far. It was difficult to lose you so suddenly, and we wanted to hold on longer, but we knew we had to spare you the pain. We miss you and love you!
