Bee - May 15, 2023
Bee was my wonderful cat for many years. He had a brother, Sting, who passed away a few years before he did. Bee was the sweetest cat I could’ve ever had, and he and Sting together were my 13th birthday present. He was with me always, and will be missed.

Gilligan - May 08, 2023
Gilligan and I celebrated our 8th Homecoming on April 11, 2023. He came into my life shortly after I lost my beloved Buddy, leaving behind his sister Daisy without a companion.

Willy - May 08, 2023
Willy loved to stick his tongue out and get his cheeks slapped. I think he both enjoyed the feeling and the sound that it made- like a rock falling into water. He loved learning and cruising around. He knew so many tricks I could ask him for an entirely new behavior, and he would figure it out He  [...]

We adopted Suzi Q after seeing her on the Old Dog Haven’s website. Her human had passed & the remaining extended family did not want her.

Rugby - May 01, 2023
She was a stray running the streets of South Tacoma. She had a collar with a broken clip on it. We think she was a puppy mill dump. My wife took her into the car to keep her from getting hit by traffic. She came home and we adopted her. Shortly after we discovered she was pregnant! She gave  [...]
Delta Blue - May 01, 2023
Delta Blue wasn’t just a pet, she was the most important member of our family. It’s hard to put into words what she meant to us. Delta was a gentle soul, loyal companion and a true friend. She loved to swim, paddle board and spend summers on the boat. She tended to sleep in, in her older age. The  [...]
Jo Brown - May 01, 2023
Jo came into our lives at a time when we had lost our dear GS dog. She filled our hearts with love and was always there. She was a shining black goldendoodle and loved by all who met her. She left us way too soon. Jo was 5 1/2 yrs old when she contracted the aspergillius fungus and within weeks she  [...]
