Memories of the Forever Loved

Posted on December 22, 2008 by Mom in German Shepherd Dog Blog, Honors & Tributes No Comments

photo of a pet cemeteryWe received a post from Doc Holliday which includes a link to a photo of his very unique tribute to his forever loved German Shepherd, Amelia. What makes this tribute even more special, is that it was created with Amelia’s ashes.

Our thanks to Doc for the idea to provide a blog page on our web site where people can post links to photos of their German Shepherd Dogs who have passed on and are now happily romping at Rainbows Bridge. These dogs may be gone from our physical worlds, but their humans will never forget them. We understand the pain of a loss like this and are happy to provide a place for you to place a loving remembrance link to your special GSD FurKid. To those of you who have lost a pet, we are so very sorry for your loss.

Others are welcome to add their own links to this page. Please do not post the photo itself, but instead include a link to your web site page that contains a photo of your own “gone but never forgotten” German Shepherd Dog. If you don’t have a web site to link to, feel free to post a text blog entry of your fondest memory.

We’d also like to encourage you to click over to Rainbows Bridge and take advantage of the opportunities they offer to create your own virtual home for your beloved pet. Rainbows Bridge is a very special place to forever remember, honor and continue to care for your lost baby, no matter what type of pet it is.

deceased pets we'll love forever, share your memories of the pets you will love forever

Dog Logic is Pretty Darn Simple

Read Before You Feed!

Although Riley's Place feeds our FurKids a raw diet we know that not everyone chooses this for their dogs. If you don't feed raw then choosing the right dry food for your dog is something that should be taken very seriously. Click this Grade Your Dog Food link for a great reference to help you choose a good quality dry food! Those of you who already feed a dry diet would do well to review this as well.

Issues with Your Dog?

If you are having issues with your dog, we welcome the opportunity to try to help! Please first attempt to locate a blog topic that matches your issue and post your comment there. You can use the SEARCH box for this. If you don't find a post that closely resembles your needs, click over to our contact form and tell us about the problem. If your topic isn't currently available on our site and we feel we may be able to help, we'll start a blog post on it. We *do not* provide any form of help privately by email or other method.

IMPORTANT! We hope that our responses are helpful and beneficial to you but please understand that we are not certified veterinarians, dog behaviorists or dog trainers. All information and blog post responses are based solely on our research, understandings, experiences and beliefs. Any suggestions made that you attempt on your own are considered as an "at your own risk" situation and as a decision you made thus is your responsibility. We are not responsible for any negative experiences you may have as a result of you taking any of our suggestions or using our methods. Always remember that what works for one dog does not work for all dogs.
