Seamus (Shames)
Seamus (Shames) was a beautiful soul. He was timid but would come to you for kisses when he wanted to give them. It was an honor to care for him and love him. In his younger years he enjoyed playing with the other dogs, running in the yard, and laying in the sun. In his elder years he enjoyed lounging with us while being pet and eating treats. He was such a good boy and will be missed so very much. 💙🐾💙

Potato
Potato came to me during my short stint at Animal Emergency Clinic. Her owner loved her dearly, but during her stay at the hospital they experienced their own health crisis and could not take her back. I volunteered to be her home and caregiver for her golden years. Since she was already an old lady, she was fairly set in her ways - which included demanding breakfast at an early hour with ear piercing barks. She never met a rug she didn’t also think was a potty pad and had a comical waddle that I never really knew if it was from arthritic changes or just how she was put together. Her favorite hobby was sleeping on one very specific square of the couch and no one else was allowed to sit there or they would get barked at while her abnormally long tongue flopped about. She liked laying RIGHT next to you, but not on you. She hated the car. Her decline was gradual - her fun waddle outside turned into laying next to me while the other dogs ran, she stopped waking up to use the bathroom, and her seizures were less controlled. She passed on her favorite spot on the couch, after eating a giant spoon full of peanut butter. I’m glad I was able to share part of my time in this life with her.
