Our dearest, sweetest, gentle giant our hearts are breaking with your absence. I sit here thinking about the day we picked you up and brought you home to be not just a pet but part of our family! Daddy wanted your brother but I refused to leave you there. Even though you were injured some how and had to have surgery to remove that eye when we got you home safe and sound you always knew we loved you and we always knew you loved us. Our whole family human and fur is hurting and missing you....

Our dearest, sweetest Roxy you had such a rough long first year and half of life. You were shoved around and discarded so many times until finally we found you and made you a part of our family.

The first day we brought you home you were so scared and shaking then you realized you had found your family and forever home! We have cried so many tears and...

She was one of a kind and she will live on in our hearts forever. You will be...

Dear Seven, I know you don’t know it but you’ve saved me multiple times. You have been my best friend for the past 10 years and I really can’t believe you’re gone. Thank you for loving me unconditionally, letting me paint your nails, & keeping me company every day while Mamaw and Mike were at work. My favorite part about pulling into the driveway was seeing you run up to the car, tail wagging waiting to greet me. I love you so much.I will forever miss...
