Arrival Story:
Checkers joined our family from a farm in Ohio. He was the last of the puppies to be claimed--they called him Ugly Dog. There are no ugly dogs, just dogs who haven't found the right person to love them for their uniqueness. Checks made his journey to the Rainbow Bridge on July 27, 2009 at 8:30 pm. He will always be remembered by his family and friends. He blessed us with 15 years of devotion and love and we, in return gave him the best life he could have had. Rest in peace my baby. Checkers - July 4, 1994-July 27, 2009

Bio:
Checkers was Dog of the Day on December 3, 2006. Mom and Dad are very proud of him. Checkers made his journey to the Rainbow Bridge on July 27, 2009 after 15 years with us. This was not an easy decision for us to make but it was one of compassion for a little guy who lived his life giving us all the love he had and we in return gave him all of our love. He was a very special pup to both of us and he is missed daily. We will meet you on the Rainbow Bridge one day, Checkers.

Here is what Checkers has to say...


Mom was worried

This morning about 10 am Kit and Buddy went out. Kit was out and about for the day, but mom wanted her to stay in the house because it has been under 20 degrees all weekend.

Mom thought for sure when they got home about 3 that she'd be sitting on the porch waiting for their return. No Kit. Buddy went out and mom called but no answer.

Surely at 5:30 Kit would come home for dinner. But no, no Kit. Mom was worrying. She wouldn't even feed Bud because she wanted to feed them together so he does go after her food.

Going to the door every 30 minutes and yelling "Kit," and "Catgirl," and meowing didn't get her to come home. Mom decided to feed Buddy at 6:30 because he hadn't eaten since 8:30 or 9 in the morning.

At 8 pm mom decided to get dressed real warm and go out searching. Fearing the worst she was going to walk out to the highway. But as she got to the end of the driveway with her high-powered spotlight and yelling for Kit, she caught to glowing eyes running toward her from up the street and around the corner. She could see them through the brush! "Kit, come on home!" "Good Kit, keep coming!"

She was home...mom was happy and Kit was happy. She came in and ate her dinner and now she is stretching out and warming up.

I wasn't really a dog who liked cats, but I know how much Kit means to mom, so I was watching out for her. She is a smart cat and doesn't go anywhere near the highway or even a car when it is running.

Welcome home, Kit.
