In Loving Memory of Buckaroo❤️

Some goodbyes come far too soon, leaving a heartbreak that is too difficult to put into words.💔🐾

Buckaroo was a friend to everyone he met, both two-legged and four-legged. A little social butterfly with a love for adventure, he found something truly special in the pack he called family. In a house full of dogs, he wasn’t simply one of the bunch; he was one of their own. The cuddles, the companionship, the comfort of curling up alongside his furry friends — he belonged right there among them.

He had an adventurous spirit and a world to explore, but no matter where his little adventures took him, he always came home to his mom’s arms, where he could settle in and feel safe.

There is no preparing your heart for a loss like this, or making sense of a goodbye that comes before you are ready. We know how deeply Buckaroo is missed, and we hope that, with time, the pain of his absence will soften enough for the beautiful memories to shine through: the friendships he made, the adventures he had, and the precious comfort of having him curled up in his mom’s arms.

Run free, sweet Buckaroo. You were so much more than a beloved companion. You were a best friend, a cherished member of your pack, and someone’s whole world. You deserved so much more time, little buddy, and you will always be loved.
Rest peacefully Buckaroo🐾🌈❤️

His loving and devoted mom shares these words in Buckaroo’s memory.

“He was not only men’s best friend but dogs best friend. He was a social a little butterfly and a gypsy at heart. Yet he came home ever night and slept in my arms. The loss is huge and 3 years old is much too young. I am still hurting so badly but I know with time the good memories will shine through. It is hard when they just get ripped out of your life like that. My little buddy.
Rest in peace.”

In loving memory of Kallie❤️

Golden hearts have a way of leaving paw prints that last forever.🐾💛

Today, we remember sweet Kallie, a beautiful, deeply loved Golden Retriever. Our hearts go out to her family, who said goodbye to her beloved Golden sister, Kaiah, just three short months ago💔. To lose both of your girls in such a short time is an immeasurable heartbreak, and we hope that, amidst the sorrow of missing them both, there is some comfort in imagining them together again.

We like to think that somewhere, Kallie and Kaiah have found each other again, their golden tails wagging, their hearts at home beside one another. And while their absence leaves an ache that words cannot ease, the love they brought into their family’s life will always be part of their story.

Rest peacefully, sweet Kallie.🐾🌈❤️
May you and Kaiah run side by side again.
With love, Kallie’s family shares these words in her honour.

“I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you; but instead I am deeply honoured knowing that you spent your whole life with me.”

In Loving Memory of Stuart💙

Some souls leave an impression that lasts a lifetime. Today, we honour Stuart, a truly beautiful boy whose unforgettable blue eyes and gentle presence made him so deeply cherished.
Some goodbyes are simply too special for words. Stuart’s family captured their love for this sweet boy so beautifully in the tribute below. We’re honoured to share their words as we remember a very special soul. 🐾🌈❤️

“In Loving Memory of our boy Stuart❤️

Eighteen years of love, and a lifetime of beautiful memories.
Stuart was a very special cat, with the most beautiful blue eyes that seemed to look straight into your soul. Born in Victoria, BC, he spent eight wonderful years with us in Zurich, Switzerland, before returning home to Victoria for the rest of his life.
He was deeply loved by his family and brought so much comfort, joy, and companionship into our lives. His gentle presence and those unforgettable blue eyes will stay in our hearts forever.
Rest peacefully, sweet boy. You were truly one of a kind. 💙🐾”

A little scruffy face, a beautiful brindle coat, and a place in someone’s heart that will always be hers.

Today, we honour sweet Skye and the love that made her so special. The bond we share with our animals is one of life’s most beautiful gifts, and the love we hold for them remains a part of us forever.

Rest peacefully, sweet girl. You will always have a place in the hearts of those who love you. 🐾🌈❤️

In loving memory of Maizie ❤️

Maizie Moo was a beautiful soul with a heart as big as her love for life. She brought a special kind of magic to the life she shared with her mom. With her gentle heart, playful spirit, and endless curiosity about the world, she made every adventure a little brighter and every day a little more meaningful. The bond they shared was one of those rare and beautiful connections, built on a thousand little moments of joy, comfort, and unconditional love. Maizie will forever be part of her mom’s heart, a beloved companion whose love made life all the richer.
Rest peacefully Maizie🐾🌈❤️ Maizie Moo (RIP “The Doodle”)
With love, Maizie’s devoted mom shares these words in her honour.

“Maizie Moo” the Doodle with the most kind and fun loving heart.  She loved chasing bunnies and desperately wanted to play with horses.  She was my companion and adventurer and she never turned down a stick or an opportunity for a swimmy or a ball throw.  She will be missed by the many human and dog friends she met along her short journey.  Rest well my beautiful girl.”❤️

In loving memory of Rocky❤️

Rocky was a gentle giant, so deeply loved by the big family who were lucky enough to call him theirs. There is something extraordinary about a dog who becomes such a central part of so many lives, quietly weaving himself into the heart of a family in ways words can never fully capture. Rocky was that kind of dog, and the love shared with him will always be a part of their family’s story.

To love a dog like Rocky is to share a piece of your life with a soul who makes the ordinary feel special simply by being there. His absence will be felt in a thousand little moments, a testament to just how much he meant to the people who loved him. What they shared was truly special, and that love will always belong to them.

Rest peacefully Rocky 🐾🌈❤️

In loving memory of Keisha❤️

Some bonds are formed in the most unexpected ways, and become more precious than we could ever have imagined. When Keisha found her way into her dad’s life, neither could have known just how much love, companionship, and happiness they would share over the years that followed. What began with one small act of choosing an overlooked soul grew into a beautiful life together, filled with quiet routines, cherished moments, and a love that made home feel like home. Keisha was so much more than a beloved cat; she was his loyal little friend, his daily companion, and a very special part of his world. ❤️
Rest peacefully Keisha 🐾🌈❤️
In tribute, Keisha’s deeply devoted dad shares these words from the heart.

Keisha : 2012 ~ September 14, 2026

“You do not adopt a cat; you take it into your home, and wait for the cat to adopt you.”
In 2014 I was visiting the CRD Shelter every couple of weeks, looking to adopt a kitten; but there you were, an abandoned little soul that no one seemed to want, in a kennel in a separate room, and visit after visit I wondered why no one had chosen to take you home.  So I finally decided that maybe I was the one to do that.  As I drove you home that day in July, I couldn’t have had any idea what the future held for us; I could just hope.
And more than twelve years later, I’ve now had to say my final ‘goodbye’ to you, my loving and loyal little friend.  The years that we had together were filled with much love, and so much joy.
It is so strange to not be getting your morning and evening meals for you each day, or watching you enjoying your ‘nightcap’ of Friskies or Temptations before bedtime.  I miss looking out into the back yard and not seeing you out there in any of your favourite places, and the house feels so empty without you here.
But while the pain of loosing you still hurts, you have given me the most precious gifts of all: your unconditional love and companionship over the years we had together, and so many happy memories that will last me a lifetime.
Thank you for being you, Keisha.  God Bless, and rest in eternal peace.”

In Loving Memory of Marley🧡

There was something especially comforting about sweet Marley — a handsome orange tabby with magnificent whiskers who seemed to carry a little bit of sunshine wherever he went☀️. He loved to stretch out in the warmth of the sun, soaking up those golden rays, and he loved nothing more than being close to the people who made his world feel like home. For more than 11 years, Marley was a cherished part of his family’s everyday life, and his gentle presence will leave an unmistakable space behind.
Rest peacefully Marley 🧡🐾🌈

Marley’s family offers these words to honour his life and spirit.

“Marley came into my life more than 11 years ago, he was an indoor and outdoor cat but he always stayed close to home. He loved to lay in the sun in the warmer months, he was a very cuddly boy. We will miss him everyday, life will not be the same without him but we find comfort knowing he had a great life.”

In loving memory of Tux❤️

Tux was a bundle of cuteness with the kind of sweet presence that could melt your heart simply by looking at him. He had a special way of making the ordinary feel joyful—whether out enjoying a walk, curled up beside his favourite people, or enthusiastically welcoming them home.

For 14 wonderful years, Tux was a beloved part of his family’s everyday life. There is something so special about the dogs who simply make a home feel happier by being in it, and Tux was clearly one of those very special souls.

He was, in every sense, the very best boy and he will be deeply missed.
Rest peacefully Tux🐾🌈❤️

These words are shared by Tux’s family in loving remembrance.

“After 14 wonderful years, we said goodbye to our sweet boy, Tux.

Tux was known for his happy sneezes that greeted everyone he loved. He loved his walks, but he was just as happy to spend the day napping beside anyone willing to lie down with him. He truly was the best nap buddy and loved his humans so much. His nickname, Tuxerrrrrr, was always yelled with enthusiasm as soon as anyone came home which made him come running with a wagging tail. He filled our home with so much happiness and love. 

He brought so much fun, companionship, and love to our family over the years, and gave us 14 amazing years of being the very best boy.

We will miss you forever, Tux❤️”

In loving memory of Rex❤️

Rex was gloriously scruffy, endlessly lovable, and full of heart. He was the kind of dog who left a little bit of joy everywhere he went, finding happiness in the simple things—being close to his people, greeting his dog friends on the trail, and giving chase to the rabbits and squirrels who dared cross his path.

For more than 15 years, Rex was a constant and beloved presence in his family’s life. A companion through so many seasons, he became part of the rhythm of their days and the memories that will stay with them forever.

Some dogs are special. And then there are the once-in-a-lifetime dogs—the ones who become woven so deeply into a family that their absence can never quite be filled. Rex was one of those dogs. We were honoured to help him pass peacefully at home, surrounded by the people who loved him so fiercely.
Rest peacefully Rex🐾🌈❤️
His loving and devoted family shares these words in his memory.

“Rex was a gentle, loving soul who loved nothing more than being around his humans. He had the softest ears, scruffiest face, and a tail that wagged uncontrollably when he bumped into one of his dog friends on the cedar hill wood chip trail. He was a once-in-a-lifetime companion who was with us for more than 15 years and was fiercely loved. We will always miss him. Sleep peacefully, sweet Rex.”
