Man's best friend

Man's best friend

Mimi 2005 - 2019

The bond between man and their dog is one that is hard to explain but it is as strong as steel. It is a journey that is long and eventful at every turn.  Always ready to go at a seconds notice, your needs above all else (except food).  Morning day or night they are ready to be at your side.  We plan everything we do around their care and comfort and are one of the family.

Mimi joined our family as a small pup as a gift for our daughter.  She has been a part of the family ever since. Through thick and thin her loyalty has never wavered.  This old gal loved her family without judgment always.  Being deaf for the last few years she learned visual cues and always looked you straight in the eye when she was trying to communicate with you. Never yelling, never judgmental, always loving.


Mimi had many health battles towards the end of her journey but always her tail would wag when any of us would approach.  Always loyal, always strong, always willing to lift our spirit when things got tough.




Rest easy now our loyal pup, as we lay you to the earth.  There is no more pain, your struggles are now at ease.  It has truly been a great journey with you at our side.  Your spirit will be with us forever.


Some count sheep when they sleep, Mimi counted Cheez-its



Your family will always love you!  You were our best friend!





Mimi takes her final bow
