Rosie

2015 – 2025

In Loving Memory of Rosie. We met while I was volunteering at the animal shelter. You were a little sweetheart with special needs and looking for a forever home. You were scared from being on the streets and needed someone to show you kindness. I immediately fell in love with you and wanted to make you part of my family. You quickly became a loving member of the fur baby pack. You had such a gentle nature and were so tolerant of having eye drops and ointment put in your eyes several times a day. I will miss our daily walks, trips to the dog park and visiting all the neighbors. My peace is you are with Bob, Coco, Hannah, Martha, Heidi, and Minnie. We will all meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.
I love you my precious “Rosie Posie”

Pet Parent

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

By sharing this pet’s memorial page, you’re helping to keep the memory of a beloved companion close — and you’re helping others understand the place pets forever inhabit in our hearts.

You can let someone grieving the loss of a pet know that you care. Whether you send calming wind chimes or a sympathy card, your gift can be a source of light for someone during a difficult time.
