With our hearts heavy and tears, we say goodbye and God’s speed to Splash Cash. She leaves behind a legacy of love, happy memories and gratitude for all she brought to so many lives. Her human family, Maureen, Frank and Nana Mary to whom she brought so much joy and love, her pup brother, Jake, a friendly rivalry of love, companionship and who gets the ball first. Her rescue and volunteers, she brought inspiration and resolve to save another and to the families of her babies who have said what a wonderful, bright shining star and fabulous mother she was.

Run, play and catch balls over Rainbow Bridge, Splash Cash, you have earned you rest
 

Boots has sadly crossed Rainbow Bridge. His dad said…”He was a once in a lifetime companion.”  10 years ago Boots was adopted from RPACI. He was a big puppy, around 50 pounds at just 7 months. But he had found his forever home. He loved his people and they loved him. Boots was a smart loveable puppy, but an escape artist. Guess he was too smart. He couldn’t be left outside during the day. So, his mom and dad would put him in a large pen in the basement while they went to work. Not having that, Boots decided he would escape. “Yes, that’s it, they left a table in the pen. I will jump on it and get out!!” So, he jumped on the table and oh no….. he was now facing a wall. It wasn’t a way out after all. He couldn’t figure out how to go backwards or turn around to get off. He was so large and the table so small. Mom and dad didn’t know how long he was sitting on that table with his face to the wall. But that was the last time. He moved into the upper part of the house 2...

“Today I should be walking my guys and gals through our woods. I'd be picking bark out of Max's teeth.

I'd be asking Ivy and Worm to try to let me keep my shoulder in place, and gently reminding Jack that walking on his feet is so much better than being pulled on his butt like a butt sled.” Marlene told us.
 
These pups had the best of life. Woods to play in, warm beds to lay in and so much love and care. They also gave so much to their human families and were so loved by them and the entire community. Our lives were enriched by them.
Their lives were tragically cut short in December. Following is an excerpt from the local news:

Jinx crossed Rainbow Bridge today, February 15, 2021. Rescued 3 years ago, she was so beautiful, loyal, fun, and intelligent. A fabulous athlete. She lent herself to training for agility courses and learned very quickly. She even competed.

Jinx was so happy hiking or going to the lake for a quick dip. A fabulous best friend to Elise. She was an absolute delight and always eager to please. She will be terribly missed by her humans and also her canine family.
