Missy Mandina - March 2005, age unknown

Today I took my sweet Missy to be put to sleep. She came into my life about three years ago. I adopted her from someone who had rescued her from a puppy mill. We knew she'd never be a 'normal' doxie. About a year ago she got really sick. I found a great vet who got my girl back into better health, and for at least a year, Missy started to come out of her shell, almost playing at times. A couple weeks ago she got sick again, and after getting her teeth cleaned, she just couldn't quite get back from the whole procedure, so I had to let her go. I know that now she is in a place where she isn't in any pain and she feels only love. She'll never have to be sick or feel bad again. If only I could feel that good now that I miss her.

Our precious baby...you gave us so much love - more than we could have ever asked for, and daddy and I loved you more than you could have ever imagined. Only G-d knows why he took you...but rest now my baby...sleep tight and play nicely at the Rainbow Bridge. I love you more than you could have ever known.

Chocolate Mousse Churchill - March 2005, 3 years old

Chocolate Mousse Churchill, one of three puppies born on 21 December 2001 was a beloved pet of Timothy, Laura, Jennifer, and Morgan Churchill of Solon, Ohio, United States. She passed away from complications of an emergency kidney stone removal in March of 2005. She was a miniature long-haired dachschund with a chocolate colour, and beautiful hazel green eyes. Chocolate Mousse was a joy to every person and dog that came in contact with her. She will always be remembered for her sweet disposition, her 'furry chaps' her 'bear claws' and the smile she always seemed to have on her face. She is missed daily.
