My favorite memory is when they had a mass memorial for my brother at our house and the priest had bought communion for the service. Jessie was was just a puppy and had gotten into the priest’s bag and pulled out the big host of communion and ran around the house with it in her mouth. The priest didn’t know what to think! Neither did with we! Oops!

He was the best dog with the hugest personality. Everyone who met him loved him. He loved to eat so and pretty much shared everything we ate. He loved drives around the harbour and his favourite spot was to be stood on the console between his mom and dad. Although in the last few months he couldn’t stand up there for as long and chose to lay on the back seat for some of the drive. He loved to stop at Tim Hortons for a timbit or donut but the many times we passed by and didn’t stop he always looked over at the driver as if to say “you’re forgetting something”. He also loved longer drives with dad and mom especially when we would stop and get a take out lunch for the 3 of us to share. He walked many miles over the years with Mom, Dad & Gavin. He wasn’t fussy about the hot summer weather but he surely loved to go for a swim to cool off. He loved when Gavin played with his toys with him and took him downstairs to hangout and watch the hockey game. We often joked that he was soon going to talk and by it wasn’t far from the truth. He knew every word you were saying to him. He jumped off the couch or hopped up off the floor every time I sang out supper was ready as sure not to miss a handout from the table. He waited for his Dad’s hand signal he always used when going for a run in the car and he’d hop up to not miss a run around the harbour. He hated the sound of the bike starting up because that meant Mom & Dad were going for a few hours without him. He also hated when went got showers because it usually meant we were going out for a while and he’d lay on the bed all sad. But was delighted the times he found out it was somewhere he was going to. He was the saddest pup on crew change day when his Dad was going to work but the happiest boy the day his dad came home. To see the how excited he got and how he cried because he was so happy his dad was home again for a few weeks. Donner and his Dad had such a special bond. We will miss him forever but we have memories to last a lifetime

Obie was one of a kind. He was the biggest goof ball. He had such human like qualities. A little human soul who loved everyone he met and everyone he met, he left a lasting impact on them. Sweet boy, I remember he would always watch TV with us and would let out a growl at anything from a mouse on the screen – to a horse lol he would normally bark at the horses and growl at the mice but it was the funniest thing to witness. He was definitely a vocal boy, it was almost as if we knew exactly what he was trying to say ♡

Obie loved nature, just like me. I soaked up every second I had with him, especially when we would go on a nice hike. We would always remember to stop and smell the flowers, and we did that together.

Obie loved a good snuggle and it gave me such comfort when he would snuggle up into my shoulder/neck. He knew he was loved.

I got Obie when I was 22 years old so he was with me for the majority of my 20’s and we definitely grew together as one. He was my heart and soul and if it wasn’t for him.. I don’t know if I would be who I am today or where I would be.. so thank you Obie for being the best dog I could have ever asked for and for guiding me to where I was meant to go. You are forever a part of me and I am so grateful for that. I love you, Obie and I miss you more then you’ll ever know.
See you on the other side baby boy.

Zoe was different. She was the dog with anxiety, the dog that would bark when you left the house, the dog that sounded like she spoke when she’d howl at the neighbors or passer byers, the dog that hated the car, and most importantly, the dog that would eat her medication/pills straight out of your hand like it was a treat. She was afraid of her own farts, it was hilarious to watch her scurry away after you heard her let one out. Zoe was there for me on my darkest days, when I lost my mom. She loved to cuddle, at points getting right up in your face, but I loved those cuddles just as much. Zoe always wanted what we were eating, and always got it as we had to share. Before my mom passed away, Zoe religiously went to bed with her, and quite literally threw her whole body and weight on the pillow, and rolled over for belly rubs. She was the best, different in her own quirky ways, a fire cracker. I am going to miss her and every little thing about her. She made my days brighter, even when the sun didn’t shine.

We will miss you my girl, we love you to the moon and back.

Miss her meowing, greeting us at the door, miss her pretty face. Pretty was so lovable & she was forever thankful to be rescued. She was lucky to be alive when we found her. She loved chasing Dereck around the house & he even had her chase her tail (like Keisha used to do). Keisha (black lab/cross) was our furbaby that we had when we found Pretty. Pretty loved Keisha & was devastated when we had to let her go. Layla now is feeling the loss of Pretty. She’s no longer in pain, so we have to remember that to keep us going. I bet Pretty was happy to see Keisha & my Nan at the Rainbow Bridge. We love & miss you forever Pretty. Thank you Angel Paws for the beautiful gifts in memory of our precious Pretty.

In her heyday Mirabella was unstoppable with a zest for life that far outshone her physical size. She was so smart, agile and quick, especially when a frisbee or ball was in play!

With a heart full of adventure she lived life to its fullest. From pulling dog sled in winter to running free in the open spaces of Labrador, to splashing along the beaches of Newfoundland, she embraced every moment with boundless enthusiasm. She was happiest off-leash, roaming through the woods, exploring every trail with her endless curiosity and joy. Her love for water was unmatched; swimming, running through rivers and brooks or chasing the spray from the water hose. She loved it all and was such a joy to watch.

Our hearts are forever changed by the memories she gave us—the laughter, the adventures, the quiet times. We will never forget her spirit, her gentle heart, and the countless ways she made our lives better.

Run free, sweet Mirabella, our unstoppable “baby girl”. You were loved beyond words, and you will be missed beyond measure.
