My dear sweet Sammi was only four months old when we got her. She was a wonderful,shy Blue Tick hound puppy and though we only had her for 1 1/2 months she brought our family sooooo much joy and love.

I bought the little dwarf rabbit in Aug. of 2000. Not ever having a rabbit I didn't even know what to expect. I kept him in the house in a cage due to the fact I had cats and I didn't want him to be their next meal.

Pete came into my life in the spring of 1989, and for 15 years he was my baby boy up until the end. You see, he had cancer and was in a lot of pain.

This is Pongo James Tackett. He was born in the summer of 1990 and we lost him February 28, 2008. His kidneys had pretty much failed. He had arthritis, a hard time walking and getting around. He threw up undigested food. His hearing was practically gone, and in a mere two weeks he had lost an awful lot of weight, so we're pretty sure he had cancer.

Patton, a beautiful Rottweiler, was found almost dead on the side of the road by a man who is a foster father to many abandoned and abused animals in Jasper, Arkansas.  At first he looked at Jeff (the man who stopped to pick him up) as though he wanted to die, but then he started fighting for his life.
