In Loving Memory of our Beloved Missy

Missy was an Akita, who had been adopted by Mary and Fred O'Neal. She was a proud, very confident and loving dog that loved to play with her brother "Buddy" and preferred playing with the boy dogs instead of the girls. It's so hard for us to lose a faithful, furry friend such as Missy.

Her family and friends loved her dearly. Her age did not slow her down when playing with Buddy and the other dogs. She has taught us to live in the moment with her unconditional love. Missy became ill and has left us. She was one of life's best....and she will never be forgotten.

Missy will always have a place in our hearts, she will be missed. We close this letter with "good-bye girl, your 'Buddy' will be okay. Rest peacefully".

With Sympathy,
The staff at Paw-Zn-Around

In Loving Memory of our Beloved Hatchet

Hatchet, a wonderful boxer who came to us at a year old. He was a well behaved young male who enjoyed people and other dogs.

Remembering Hatchet perfectly happy, without a care in the world. Remembering how he observed the pack only to make sure all the dogs were being good. Before leaving the daycare facility, Hatchet would seek out one of the staff out for a cookie; come on guys - one for the road? Then adding his wiggle dance that started from his bum to his ears. He was irresistable!

Then at the age of 4, he was swept away from us to cancer.

Hatchet was a trooper from the start, we will remember the memories we shared with Hatchet and blessed that we had the opportunity to see him enjoying his beautiful life, Hatchet you will be missed in our hearts, "Good bye our friend, our trooper".

He will be greatly missed by all of us, "We love you Hatchet!"

- Woof! Woof!

In Loving Memory of our Beloved Baja

December 5th, 2008

So big and so strong, yet another member of our pack has passed.

Our beloved Baja owned by the Hilliare family, has left us on December 5, 2008. She was a fun and loving friend to all of us. Baja was the “Police Dog" within the pack, she would help making sure all things ran smooth. She loved playing with other dogs especially when it came time to play the chase game, of course, she always lead.

Baja always greeted us with a smile whenever she came to see us at the daycare.

Her mom has given her a great life and a beautiful home. She loved it when the mail man would show up just to chase him away! She looked intimidating, but was a gentle girl.

She loved her nature walks, especially finding the little critters that crossed her path. We had a chance to say good-by. Oh Baja, was a great dog. We will miss her dearly, such a sweet girl could never be forgotten.

Baja has left us, but with great memories. We close this thought with saying: Baja, we all loved you!

In Loving Memory of our Beloved Ollie

June 5th, 2008

Oh, Our dear Ollie, you passed away so quick.
   You were getting tired, and oh so very sick.
Your mom would call, Ollie's on his way.
   We would pass along the news, it was to be a happy day.
You were so happy to come through the door.
   We couldn't open it fast enough, so you could play some more.
You made our jobs brighter, to see your happy face.
   That is something we could never, ever replace.
At one time or another, there was always someone on the floor.
   Laying next to dear Ollie, we knew you were sore.
As hard as it was, you'd get up every time,
   To greet and say hello, to let us know you were fine.
You touched all our hearts, you were such a dear,
   Our own great big soft, loving, Teddybear.
Then your mom called, Ollie passed away.
   We passed on the news, it was such a sad day.
Our eyes filled with tears, our hearts sank.
   All the memories we have, you to thank.
You will never be forgotten, you are so sadly missed.
   We just wish we had time, for one more Ollie kiss.

In Loving Memory of our Beloved Christopher

March 20th, 2008

It's lonesome here without you,
   We miss you everyday,
You touched all out hearts in such a special way,
   You'd come through that door happy as could be,
You always had that growl, "I'm here look at me!"
   You're size was so grand, you were a sight to see,
We all knew at heart you were just a baby,
   But as time went on, the harder it became.
Life had become hard with age, it wasn't the same.
   We all said our goodbyes, gave hugs, and kissed.
Goodbye our friend, you'll sadly be missed.
   We were sad to see you go, but knew it was for the best.
It was time our dear Christopher, you needed to go and rest.
   Up to heaven you go, for some much needed fun.
We hope you enjoy your well deserved run.
