She was a very quick learner. We were able to teach her how to sit, lay down, sit up, shake paw and other paw as well as reach for the sky. All were taught using hand signals. We will always remember her getting the zoomies and breaking the shoe rack in the process. After being in the car for 4 day driving from Ontario to Newfoundland, she wasn’t as happy to get in the car anymore, lol. Her cuddles on the couch will be missed my all.

Lulu was always in a hurry, she would “scurry” around the house. Getting ready for work in the morning I would have to share the bathroom sink with Lulu – she would wait (not so patiently) for me to turn on the tap so she could drink. Breakfast time was her favorite time! She would jump up as I was sharing the food out and eat half of her wet food, half of Finnegan’s, then finish hers once I put the dishes down for them both. Finnegan knew the routine and always waited patiently for Lulu to eat whatever she wanted from both dishes before chowing down. She was a spitfire – barely 6 lbs and ruled the house. Her brothers are big boys (15 and 19 lbs) and they knew she was the queen. We miss her hisses and fiesty meows. I took Lulu in temporarily from a family member in 2014 but loved her far too much to ever part with her. Lulu, thank you for giving me 8 wonderful years of love and memories.

Katie was the luckiest doggie! She was truly loved beyond measure and the centre of Poppy’s world!
We like to think she’s across the bridge playing with Nanny and all our precious pups before her…. And she’s likely rounding up a few minions to see to her needs!! We love you Girlie.

Driving was her favorite thing to do, she would get so excited when she would hear the word “drive” and it made us so happy. She would sleep with us every night and cuddle up under the blankets, and she followed us everywhere. She was such a great dog and we loved her very much, she will be forever loved and missed.

Today this gentle soul joined the angels. River was one of the sweetest dogs you could ever meet. He took his last ride to McDonald’s for a delicious ice cream cone that he enjoyed until the last lick. Waiting with open arms at the bridge is his human Dad, fur-siblings Roxy, Hammy, Nutmeg, Oso, and Geronimo, as well as feathered-brothers Kiwi, Chico, Robbie, and Omar. Last but not least, butterfly sister, Mariposa.
He leaves behind his human family: his mom (Ann), big sister (Emily) and two older brothers (Aaron & Joey). He also leaves behind two special fur-cousins, Bella and Zena, his loving aunt, Aunt Gail. As well as little sister Josie, and feathered-brother, Rupaul. He will also be missed by feline friend Bella Cornick, and his fence buddy, Meeko Fitzgerald. We are sure they will miss their morning chats. He will also be missed by the city garbageman and the Irving propane man, we are sure the barking was nothing personal! He was just confident they were stealing our stuff. Live like River, don’t take life too seriously. Kick some grass over the rough spots and keep moving.
Cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers, River requests that everybody take some time to hug their fur babies extra close tonight.
As a retired CKC Champion, River will be competing in the big dog show in the sky tonight.
