Pet's Prayer

Lord thank you for the family you gave me

I hope I brought joy to their hearts and many smiles on their faces

They loved me the moment I came home until I took my last breath

I may have left a few paw prints and hair around the house so they will remember me.

Let them not be sad too long but let them know that they are the BEST FAMILY ever

Amen

Ginger Bear Inniss ( 8/2004- 10/9/2020)

My sassy girl, great traveling companion, loved cat food and her dental treats. She did not like going on long walks nor kids who were moving too fast around her; (Darrol and his friends  knew this because she would nip at those fast moving heels).  Our last long road trip was August 2019; this year I did the trip without my loyal companion but I knew she was there with me. My Gingy, I'm sooooo grateful you spent time with me. Love you always .

Cody, 

We had a good life together and you were a perfect match with our family. 12 years of walks, rides in the car, fetch and loyal companionship seem way too short. We love and miss you buddy !!

Ginger (2004-2018)

Ginger came into our lives almost 14 years ago when we adopted her from the Illinois Doberman Rescue. The breeder could not sell her because of her unique coloring. That is when our unique journey with Ginger began. She progressed quickly through her training classes. We were encouraged to enter Ginger into Obedience training. She took 1st place in all the Obedience trials she entered. Ginger was introduced to a therapy Organization, Healthy Healers through her Obedience trials. She went through more training and became a Certified therapy dog. 

As a therapy dog, Ginger visited elder care facilities such as Luther Manor & St Camillus. She won over the hearts of many residents, bringing smiles to their faces. Faces lit up when she came to visit and many even remembered her name. As a therapy dog, Ginger also participated in the After School  and the Reading to Rover programs.

Ginger eventually retired to live out the rest of her life as the faithful companion she was when she first came home. She brought much joy to us and everyone else. She will always be loved and is sadly missed. 

We thank Dr Inniss for her kindness and compassion she showed toward Ginger and us during this difficult time. We were blessed to have her with us when Ginger crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

WE LOVE AND MISS YOU GINGER, Scott & Cheryl

With heavy hearts, they held him close and said their goodbyes to their beloved boy. You are a special boy and will be forever in our hearts.

Rocco M 

I always loved this picture of Rocco. He was just starting to lose the feeling in his back legs. This is one of the last pictures I took while he was still capable of standing. He really was such a sweet, amazing, smart and loving boy. He couldn't hear but listened better than any dog I ever had. I'm so grateful he was brought into my life. I have many wonderful memories with him. I miss him dearly.

Thank you for being so kind and gentle with him in our home and also with me. Thank you for helping me get through saying goodbye to him, for understanding how much a dog can mean to someone and they are truly a family member. It was so nice to be able to have him go in peace in his own home, where he felt safe, comfortable and loved. Thank you for providing this service in our home. I've had to go through this with several other dogs and they were not as peaceful, comfortable or calm.

Thank you 

Vanessa M.

Schatzie W. has been a loving companion from the moment she came home as a young beautiful fawn colored pup. As the years went by, she faced a few medical problems that her mom diligently handled and Schatzie was so energised that you would hardly believe she was up in years. At 15 years old she had outlived many of her breed. Having to say goodbye to her beloved Schatzie who was her constant companion, was one of the most difficult decisions her mom had to make. On 12/3/2016, she passed away quietly at home. Miss you Schatzie !!

Pearl (10/8/2000-12/23/2016)

Tiny toy poodle all-black Pearl came to us small enough to fit in one hand 16 years ago. Within 6 months she had achieved an exquisite silver coat- a specimen to behold and she remained beautiful, retaining her tiny perfect little physique of 3.5 # for her lifetime, despite a lifelong habit of scrounging for the tiniest fallen tit-bits on the kitchen floor, but she never let her size slow her down. She was a little lady through and through, tough and loyal to her family throughout her very long life. In recent months she became a very stooped arthritic little old lady, blind, toothless and increasingly disoriented, but her little heart just kept ticking beyond its prime. When she started loosing her balance more and more frequently a few weeks ago, we prayed she would simply go in her sleep, but she just kept plugging along. When we woke up one day a week ago we saw in a flash that it was time to make that hard call to Dr Inniss. Pearl died peacefully in our home through her care and compassion, 2 days after we called, two days before Christmas. Today Dr Inniss brought Pearl's ashes home to us and we together placed them in a beautiful antique gilded perfume bottle. Little Pearl has left a big hole in our family, but lady that she was led us (we know) to who could potentially be her legacy even before she left -tiny teacup Charlie. Charlie is due to arrive in 3 days. He will help to ease the pain, but our tears will not stop as there will never be another Pearl. Thank you with all our hearts Dr. Inniss

Eileen and John Jones

Tori was the first rescue cat I,(John) brought home. She was petite and feisty. Tory's health faded in 2015, when she was 18 years old; I felt the pain of saying goodbye to my beloved girl, I didn't think I had the courage but she was no longer the Tori I knew. I was comforted in my other kitties especially Rihanna, fondly known as ReRe, who was close to Tori. In 2016, ReRe started to favor her left front leg. I got the bad news that it was bone cancer; amputation was not an option because of the location. When her pain medication did not alleviate her pain any longer, I had to make the decision to let her go; On 12/13/2016 she passed away quietly in my arms. Needless to say I felt the pain of separation once again. Saying goodbye to the girls was one of the toughest decisions I ever made. My comfort is that they are together again. 

Snowball

Snowball's family said their goodbyes Sept./2015. Everyone in the family was devastated including his long time companion, Tigger. He left a void in the home.
