| Forever In Our Hearts A Tribute To Some Lost Best Friends |
| Tippi Sep 1967 - Feb 1981 |
| Mitzi Nov 1980 - Oct 1995 |
| Katie Mar 1995 - Jun 2009 |
| Katie and Me - Yes, we're reading an aviation weather book together somewhere around the year 2000 when I was an active private pilot. |
| Before Katie there was Mitzi, and before Mitzi, there was Tippi. We got Tippi when she was a pup just a few weeks old in Oct 1967. Mitzi we got from the shelter in Mar 1981 when she was already several months old. We have always considered and treated our dog as another child in our family. Rocky, Katie, Mitzi and Tippi will live in out hearts forever. We will never forget them. |
| We got our Katie in November of 1995 from the Humane Society down in Tinton Falls, NJ. At the time she was about 8 months old, having lived with another family for about 5 months before they decided that she was too much work for their kids to handle after they started school in September. She spent about 2 1/2 months in the shelter before we found her there the day after Thanksgiving that year. She was everything we hoped for and more. Smart, bright eyed, with a great spirit. Did I say she was very smart? She was part German Shepard and part something else, we don't really know what else. But that's not what was important to us. She became part of our family. She was my BFF-KT. |
| Rocky Nov 2007 - Jan 2022 |
| Rocky was our little Rock Star. Part Border Collie, part Chow (we think), and maybe part something else. Rocky was our first boy dog and a great pal. We got him in January 2013 when he was about 5 years old from neighbors who could no longer care for him. Everyone in our building loved him. He didn't ask for much, and only wanted to be cared for and a little petting by those closest to him. He loved going for car rides, especially when we took him to a dog park to meet and play with a few other K9 friends. Above all, he loved people, people loved him (especially those that offered him treats), and he always brought a smile to everyone who saw him. I will always miss the sweet smile he had on his face and his waggly tail when we opened the door every time we came home. Most of all, for me, I miss all the walks we took together every day and every night, for all those wonderful years that we were together. Sleep tight my little boy, and remember how much we love you. Sweet puppy dreams. |
