Bujo was rescued as a puppy from a shelter by our son. He was ill with intestinal problems but improved with careful treatment and attention. From day one he was very affectionate and loving and won our hearts, becoming an important part of our family. He grew rapidly to about 90 pounds and had a beautiful brindle coat. As a Boxer/Pit Bull mix, he had a large head and broad jaw. Often people would find his appearance imposing, shying away from him when we took him out. The staff and vets at...

On Tuesday, June 29, 2021 at the of age seven, Scout Justice Stanfield peacefully crossed the Rainbow Bridge, surrounded by her family. Scout was a rescue puppy from Dog’s Second Chance and joined our Stanfield family in October 2013.  The moment she was spotted a forever bond was formed.  Her sweet disposition, eyes and the cute tiny white spot on her chest helped her to stand out from the others. Scout spent her days taking care and guarding her family.  She was...

Sandy Boo “The Boss” Pevy There aren’t enough words to express how truly special our little angel Sandy was.  She came to us as a rescue but I’m not sure who rescued who.  She was about two and a half years old and very sick when she first came to live with us.  She was on the euthanasia list at MAS.  We were her foster parents but soon became foster failures. We were her proud parents for over nine years.  Sandy could communicate and...

Schatzi - a german endearment.  "little treasure", "treasured one", "sweetheart"' "darling".  Schatzi was and still is all those things to me.   He was my emotional support pet after the death of my Autumn, the divorce, and years of PTSD.   I sometimes affectionately referred to him as my sweet Brat as he used to like to get between me and my beads for some cuddle time. Fourteen years was not long enough.  My...

When I was at the animal shelter the day I adopted Peanut, I never expected to actually adopt a dog. I was only there to look at the dogs. However, the moment we locked eyes on each other I knew that he was supposed to be with me. I was in high school at the time, so I left the shelter to go ask my mother if I could adopt this dog. My mother gave me a very strong NO. I was very angry, so I decided to ignore my mother and adopt him anyway. The day after I got Peanut my mom gave him back to...

Sadie Mae Mohundro  Nov 29 2008 to April 16 2021 Sadie Mae was the puppy I had always wished for; she played Frisbee, loved to boat, swim, canoe, learned every trick in 5 minutes, and never left my side.  Until the day she passed, she stayed by my side no matter the pain of getting up to follow me everywhere. She passed holding my hand with her head in my lap. There could never be another dog like Sadie. She was my best friend. She loved our 2 children and was fiercely protective...

Wally was adopted on 4-20-20 from Midsouth Pug Rescue. He was rescued from his previous owner in Birmingham, Alabama who was unable to care for him. Wally was a spunky little boy who loved to go on long walks and enjoyed the outdoors. He loved seeing all the people along his walks, especially the children. Wally was a great companion and had a gentle soul. I will miss him very much and loved having him and giving him a good home and making the time he had left enjoyable. Miss you little...

Tommy August 17, 2008 - March 27th, 2021   My dearest friend and sweetest love earned his wings on March 27th. He was also known as Thomas, Thomasezs, Thomasehasis, Tommytoe, Tomatio, TomTom, Mama’s Tomma, Handsome man, My Sweet Baboo and My Baby Love Man. He lost his fight with CKD, but fought it every day like the true warrior that he was. I am lost. I am devastated and not sure how to live without him. He was the most wonderful boy and my constant companion for his 12 and a...

She was just a pup running down the middle of Holmes Road in South Memphis. Our son was on his way home from work that day…..He just stopped and scooped her up and tossed her over into the passenger seat of his truck. The rest is history as they say. “Macy” came into our home with our already two elderly Boxers. She fit right in! She loved them! Macy was about 4 months old according to the vet and would probably be about 35-40 pounds……Our vet missed that...

Our sweet LucyLou was supposed to be our first foster pet. Well 12 years later we proved to be foster failures. Lucy was supposed to be my husband’s dog but decided she would be my shadow instead. She went from being a scared, kept in a kennel being used as a breeder dog to our spoiled, lazing on the couch getting belly rubs, princess. Losing her has been so hard but we both take comfort in knowing that our LucyLou had the best life with us! Novette and Wade
