Animals have a way of teaching us about loving, about loyalty, joy, and friendship...And whatever we've shared in their presence can never really be lost.

We lovingly remember Cally and her journey with Reiki...

By David Griffiths

 In June 2005, my Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Cally, was badly mauled by another dog. Cally suffered extensive trauma to the face, and lost the use of her left ear. Her injuries were so bad that she had to go to a specialist centre to have her face put back together.

Seams

By Julie Schmitz

I lay there beside you in this memory, in this dreamI
reach out to touch you
Our hearts become seams

My husband Dan and I adopted Sir Bandit almost two years ago from the Ukiah Shelter. We also adopted a female lab & Whippet mix. We weren’t sure if we were going to get two dogs that day but we fell in love with both of them. Bandit is part chocolate lab and Rottweiler mix but resembles the look of a BEAR.

5 years ago, You showed up on our door step two weeks before our little dog Buckwheat passed. You wouldn't leave. You just curled yourself up on the door mat and waited patiently to be fed. After Buckwheat left us, we decided to bring you in to be a part of our ever growing family of furry friends. You were always the quiet one. Never really affectionate. Kept to yourself, and really felt you were above everyone else I'm sure. You really couldn't be bothered.
