Nellie Sue - Aug 13, 2009
"Nell" was a beautiful half Keeshond / half Schnauzer friend who had belonged to a Tacoma teacher I knew only as Sue, whose retirement plans included a medical checkup. At the appointment her doctor sent her to terminal care.

Nixon - Aug 13, 2009
We found Nixon at a shelter about 4 years ago. He was a cute cocker spaniel who needed a loving home. When we found him, his name was Bobby and it just didn't fit. He loved getting up on his hind legs with his little paws sticking out and reminded us of Richard Nixon, the name was the perfect  [...]
Peaches - Aug 11, 2009
Peaches was a miniature apricot Poodle. When I first saw her she was sleeping in the breeder’s shirt pocket. Even when she was older, she loved to put her nose into your pants pocket. She was so tiny when we first got her that I didn’t realize that they had cut her tail off. She didn’t need a  [...]
Shadow - Aug 11, 2009
Where do I begin. The crazy part, as I write this, Shadow is still of this earth. However, it is time for us to allow Shadow to rest comfortably and be in peace. Shadow is just about 17 years old and we got him when he was maybe 3 1/2 week old. The people that had him got rid of the mother of  [...]

Beaker Tweaker - Aug 05, 2009
Our little pug, Beaker Tweaker, lived to be 17. We enjoyed 16 wonderful years filled with love. She started out as a 3 oz. puppy. She was so small that the breeder held her up to the light to see if her organs were working. In doing that it reminded them of a chemistry beaker and hence her name.  [...]
Gracie - Aug 05, 2009
We found Gracie living in an unfortunate circumstance, she was the runt of a litter of English Pointers and was dehydrated and unable to keep food down. My husband said we can't leave her like this, so there she was sick in my lap and on her way home to meet her new family. Gracie was sick for a few  [...]
Danke - Aug 04, 2009
Danke was born in the summer of 1998, when our daughter Nellie was just about to enter the 8th grade. Danke raised Nellie. She taught Nellie how to be responsible, how to deal with frustration, and then how to be honorable. After Nellie went to college and beyond, Danke ran our horse farm, as  [...]

Like most retrievers, he loved swimming, retrieving, and rescuing rocks from the of  [...]
