Pet Stories

Tabitha the Tabby

Tabitha has been a part of my life for over 15 years... A wonderful tabby cat, with the beautiful markings and attitude.... reminding my dogs that she was here first and if she wished to be with me then they had to wait their turn.

A Wonderful Westie Named Christie

I want to send a big thank you to Dr. Betsy Bond for giving us 14 1/2 years with our wonderful Westie named Christie.

Neffie the German Shepherd

Neffie, a rescued German Shepherd dog, was misdiagnosed with a cyst in 1992. She was only 2 years old and had a growing lump on her right back.
