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
I feel so blessed to have been able to love Jovi. I didn't know you when you brought this sweet girl home from Best Friends, but I am so glad I got to spend so much time with her. We enjoyed so many wonderful walks together, slumber parties, sniff mat parties and nights sitting on the patio. Her soulful eyes could always talk me out of "just one more treat". I loved watching when she would kindly play with her sisters, even if it was just for a few minutes. She was a special girl and I will miss her so much. Run free sweet girl--you will live in my heart forever.
