We believe in honoring the lives of pets

Here at Best Friends, animals have such a special place in our lives. We honor those pets we’ve loved and those who need our help today. At Best Friends, we keep pets in our hearts

Remembrances

Leaving a personal story, memory, or words of support for a pet’s family is a heartfelt way to pay tribute and provide comfort. As part of your remembrance, we also invite you to leave a virtual token along with your words — similar to our tradition here at the Sanctuary of leaving stones, beloved items, or small toys on the graves of cherished animals.

Leave Your Remembrance

Theodore was my faithful four-legged companion. We got him as a puppy shortly after my mom died, and he was a huge comfort for me and helped me through it. He was loyal and sweet and loved on pretty much everyone. He enjoyed getting pets, and then collapsing on the floor to hopefully get a bonus belly rub. I will always cherish our neighborhood walks, and I'll miss seeing your face through the front window when I would return home. Mama loves you always, Theodore.

Report Remembrance

I'll always remember the times I'd just lie down with Theodore and snuggle with him. We'd both lie there, I'd be hugging him, and it was absolute bliss. He was such a love---he loved people, and we loved him right back. What a special boy. We miss you, baby!
