In Loving Memory

Faolan

Dr. Sarena’s Soul Dog – (3/17/2006 – 7/11/2019)
Faolan is the reason I started Peace for Paws.
I ended his fight with cancer myself, peacefully in the comfort of his own bed with just our little family present. It inspired me to start Peace for Paws, so that other pets and families could experience the same peace and comfort in their final moments.
Together, Faolan and I climbed mountains, kayaked, paddle boarded, swam, snowshoed, lived in three states, road-tripped, hiked countless trails, camped, danced at summer festivals, and cuddled together. He was my protector and adventure partner, and I still think of him every single day.

Peanut

You were our friend, family and favorite web-footed snow-shoer. Rest easy now Peanut, you brought love and joy to our lives every day.

Gizmo G.

(9/11/2007 – 1/25/2021)
Little Gizmo came home to us in January of 2008. We truly believe he was grateful to us for bringing him home and showering him with love for 13 years. Gizmo was an amazing addition to our family, he taught us what unconditional love was, brought us comfort when we were feeling down, and was happy when we were happy. We will miss him beyond what words can express, but we know that he is no longer in pain. After being diagnosed with cancer, we believe that he hung on as he did because we all loved him so much, and he loved us just the same. We will miss you little buddy.

Abby

Abby and her brother Jack came to us at 8 weeks old in February 2008. They brought so much joy to our family. Jack left us in 2022. Abby thrived until a few months ago. She lived a long life 16 ¾ years. So many memories and love from such a small, sweetanimal. Forever in our hearts sweet Angel.

Molly Towner

The sweetest, most drooliest, most messiest girl. We’re so thankful for all the years we spent with you, you made life more beautiful. 7 years wasn’t long enough. We love & miss you more than you know.

Peaches

Our sweet Peaches. We adopted her as a kitten, she was a great little cat. She was with us for 17 years. She liked to prowl around in our garden (supervised), and sleep on a sunny window perch. We miss her.

Echo

This was Echo, always smiling, wanting to play, up for a walk or a drive, and of course begging for pizza whenever he could. I got him as a puppy when I had no business having a dog, but he was needed. He gave me purpose when I had none. He was the best snuggle buddy and gave the best kisses. We’ve been through hurricanes in Florida, wildfires in Nevada, and even cross country road trips. He was always up for adventure from one coast to the other. Echo – I miss you more than anything. Sleep well my boy. Get in lots of grass rolls for me and let the sun shine on your handsome face. You will always be with me, I love you buddy.

Mumford

Mumford came into our lives on Valentine’s Day 2012. His loud rumbling purr and laid back, loving nature won us all over. He was spoiled and loved and cherished every day of his life. He comforted us during loss and hardship and was a constant source of love. He will be missed and we will always be grateful for the time we had together.

Sammy

May Sammy rest in peace.

Ruca G.

When love leaves a memory. We had the opportunity to walk through life with Ruca for 15 years. She was a beloved Momma Bear, always making sure that everyone was taken care of. She lived through 3 ACL surgeries and was one of toughest dogs we have ever met. She loved swimming even in her old age and still gave the newest puppies in our family her nurturing love. She will be missed but never forgotten for she has left a lasting impression.

Fred. F

Fred came into our lives 21 years ago and has really been one of the greatest cats anyone could ever have. He lived a wonderful long life with us for over two decades. He was well cared for and always welcomed anyone who came into our homes. He helped us stretch after workouts, always helped us pack for trips, and never hesitated to jump on the couch and hang out with us even in his later years and just made our lives better. Kitty heaven has just received a legend!! Cheers.

Finny

Finny, you were a light in our lives. You were smart, cuddly and had more personality than any one dog should. You will be missed each and every day for the rest of our lives. We love you!

Oliver V.

We will miss you forever.

Max G.

Max was a big part of our family, he will be missed greatly. We had 18 wonderful years. Our hearts are filled with memories we will never forget, R.I.P. my little friend.

Grundy

Grundy was my closest friend, my biggest supporter and my favorite adventure partner. He saw me through some of the worst times in my life and loved me just the same as he did during the best times. He was my rock, my knight in shining slobber, and the most loyal and true friend I will ever have. Coming home and not seeing you dancing that nub-wag dance for me is so hard. You took a piece of me with you, DoogumButt, I miss you every single day. You’ll always be momma’s good boy

Tiny L.

Tiny had a rough start to life, but he didn’t let that affect him, he loved people and was the sweetest boy. Tiny was a “bait” dog who was originally rescued by my wife’s uncle almost 14 years ago; I have been his owner the last 5 years. Those 5 years have been the best, going on the mountain, the beach, visiting family in Utah, countless walks, and car rides, hanging with your dog buddies at the park. Tiny was a protector too, he loved his family and watched over the house. I would always tell my wife when I was out of town “everything will be ok, you have Tiny here”. Thank you for being so sweet and patient to your human baby brother Tiny, I know he loved you so much too. I’m going to miss you so much Tiny. I love you.

Phil C.

Phil quickly became Dr. Phil when I was stricken with Leukemia. Every day when I got home from chemotherapy, he would be waiting for me. As stupid as it may sound, he would lick my feet and that provided a sense of love from my dog. Always my best friend, always faithful, will forever be a part of my heart. Miss you buddy.

Kona C.

In January 2011, we drove from Fort Walton Beach to Daytona Beach to see her. We could not resist; her eyes were begging us to take her home. From there, Kona followed us everywhere we lived: Florida, Montreal, Regina, and finally Las Vegas. She loved playing in the snow, in the water, hiking, going camping or just snoozing on the sofa. She was so seductive when she was singing on command and bringing us one of her many teddy bears. Everybody loved her! Kona had so many sweet nicknames: Cocotte, Petit Bébé, The Little French Dog, Baby Girl. We will miss you Cocotte. You will always be remembered.

Achilles B.

This was the very first photo I ever took of you. I had no idea at this moment that I would bond and grow to love you beyond what words could ever explain. I wish with every fiber of my being that I had more time with you, but every single day with you was a blessing that I will cherish forever. I miss you being by my side everyday, I miss seeing you peeking around the corner of the hallway, I miss the “thump” every time you’d lay your head down, I miss hearing your dramatic sighs and lip smacking, I miss watching you kick your legs while you slept with your eyes open, I miss tickling the tickle spots on your feet, I miss rubbing the inside of your ears because that was your favorite, I miss every single one of your quirks. Most of all, I miss loving on you and being able to hug you and give you kisses. You brought me joy and laughter every single day and my heart is so, so heavy with the loss of you. Life isn’t the same without you here, but I want to thank you for being my family, my best friend, and showing me for the first time what it is to love and be loved unconditionally. Rest easy handsome boy.

Tres R.

In memory of you my beautiful, strong, and independent girl. You fought through your challenges every single day for the last 15 years, always forging ahead to do all the things you wanted to do. We promised to give you the best life we could, and yesterday was the hardest part of that commitment. You tolerated so much change over the years and gave us so many memories. I’m so glad you were able to have a good last day and enjoy some things you haven’t been able to lately. Your happiness was written all over your face. I know it has been hard for you, but in your true style you kept pushing on. The house is much quieter now. I woke up today knowing you wouldn’t have to struggle to get up or eat your breakfast. I even missed having to pat you down gently with towels because you decided to lay down on the shelf in the pool before coming to the door to come inside. I’ll miss your paw prints on the floor which you left for me EVERY TIME I mopped and the comfort of just your presence, your breathing. Rest assured we feel your spirit as time continues to go on for us. Someday my spirit will join yours and we’ll be together again.

Chloe M.

My little Chloe gave me 18 years of unconditional love. She had a huge personality packed into a little body. She was sweet and gentle but still loved to boss everyone around. She taught me many lessons about life and love and I will be forever grateful for our time together.

Molly W.

Molly came to us as a rescue. She had been found on an Indian reservation with 8 littermates. When we first saw her, she looked so sad. We brought her into our home: 2 dogs, 2 cats and a young son. She warmed to us and was a wonderful addition to our family.

She was famous for doing “wheelies” in the yard when she played. This photo of her mid-leap captures her smile and her personality so well.

Molly was also a lady. She always sat with crossed paws.

Mason F.

Always in our hearts.

Ziggy M.

Sweet Ziggy, we all love and miss you so much. My best friend and work meeting companion, you were brave, smart, and so loved. You could open doors, drawers, and cabinets; you loved breaking into food containers and bags of bread; you loved lying by your Christmas train. You loved eating grass, exploring the outdoors, drinking from your watering can, and laying in your catnip. So soft and such a good little spoon, you loved cuddling and being held. Thank you for all the cuddles, sweet baby, especially these last several years. You were such a good boy. We will keep your catnip growing and save you a spot in the sun by the fire, forever.

Mommy Puppy A.

We don’t know when she was born, so her birth date is the day we brought her from the shelter. It was love at first sight for all of us when we met her and I believe she felt the same. Mostly she loved having two little boys that constantly doted on her with belly rubs and kisses. She was the perfect backup quarterback to Francis guarding the house, barking from the comfort of her bed. You could talk to her and she would grunt and snort back, like she understood everything you said. She loved people & kids, but hated cats. The only time you ever saw her run! Mommy was the best dog we could of ever had the honor of loving. She was a big part of our family and she is terribly missed.

Lexi R.

Lexi you were the dog we never knew we needed. We love you for your whole life, and will miss you for the rest of ours.

Missie G.

Missie, a sweet little Jack Russell, was born with a severe underbite that made her unwanted. We didn’t care that she had a flaw, that’s what made her so perfect! In 2004 this sweet little girl was born and immediately stole everyone’s hearts. She loved playing keep-away with her brother and sister, Harvey and Kiera. Today she’s gone, but her spirit will live on forever through 17 years of memories. Although her journey over The Rainbow Bridge just started, we know that she will forever play with her brother and sister and bark even louder and prouder! Missie, you will forever be remembered by your family as a tenacious little pup with a gigantic spirit and bigger personality! May you rest in peace sweet little girl.

Mugsy R.

It’s so hard to say goodbye to Mugsy, because I feel like I lost my child and my best friend all at once. The amount of love and loyalty he gave me was surreal, and I always knew he was brought into my life for a special purpose. He will always hold a huge piece of my heart. RIP to an amazing companion! One day, I’ll see you again, my dear friend.
