George RIP
We fostered George through AADR in August of 2023, I knew within a short time I could never let this boy go so we adopted him. George helped heal my broken heart from the loss of my sister, he was so much more than dog, our entire family connected with George in so many ways. It's hard to put into words how much we love and miss him. Earlier this week he started to decline with his health problems that he had for the last 2 years, I knew it was time to say goodbye, I told my kids it's the ultimate act of love to end thier suffering. Until we meet again George Mommy loves you and I would do it all again in a heartbeat for you❤️
Bennett Rowe, RIP 2026
How do you even start to describe how much a little dog touched your heart and changed your life? Words cannot express the love we have for Bennett or how much we miss him. We helped our beloved baby boy cross the Rainbow Bridge last night. He passed peacefully, surrounded by people who love him, held by me and Rick and covered in our tears. As we felt him take his last breath and gain his wings, we knew he then felt incredible, better than ever. And he is now able to run, jump, play, corn cob, and just be wild to his heart's content. Imagine the reunion he had with his siblings who went to Heaven before him and the grand time they are having.
A few of the many lessons I learned from my boy:
- Have hope. He came to us not trusting, unsure of how to play with toys or his pack, and reluctant to accept affection. That all changed with time, love, routine, and safety. And being able to sleep in the Big Bed.
- Do what you want. Sometimes you just have to shake a paw at the world, not care what others think, and express how you're feeling.
- It's okay to be sweet and tough at the same time. You can cuddle with the ones you love while still having strong opinions about those you are unsure of. And become a pro at the cuddling.
I love you to the moon and back and then some more Bubs, sweet boy. This is only goodbye for now... mama will see you again at the Bridge one day and we'll never be apart again.
- Heather & Rick Rowe
Riley
Riley crossed over the Rainbow Bridge on 1/30/2026 from liver cancer. He was forever adopted at 7 years old on 10/1/2021 after three unsuccessful tries with other families. He was spoiled and loved not only by his owners, but the entire community. He will be missed terribly.
Dorrie RIP
With a heavy heart I wanted to let you know my beautiful Dorrie passed away two weeks ago. My heart is broken and she leaves a big hole in our lives. I had her for 14.5 years and she was the best. Thank you again for taking care of her before I met her. She was the best.
Josie RIP
We enjoyed 9 years with her! She was diagnosed with Cushing’s disease after 2 years with us and had struggled with arthritis and pain the last two years. We had been carrying her and hand feeding her the last 2 years, but she recently suffered a stroke and could not bounce back! We had to matthe hard decision to let her rest in peace! Thitis a picture of her about a month before we had to say our goodbye!
Thank you for allowing us to adopt her and share many memories!
