Trapper lost his battle with blastomycosis. Though we didn't have him long he touched our hearts deeply as he touched so many of your hearts. He will always have a special spot in our hearts and bring smiles to our faces when we think of all the good times we had. We are truly blessed and proud that we were owned by such a regal boy. We would like to personally thank everyone for their prayers and help.

Johnny & Jennie Milhet and also Candy

In memory of Misty, our little “baby” boxer who always greeted us at the door with loving eyes and a happy tail, who kidney-beaned with excitement upon hearing her favorite words “hungry”, “bone”, and “walk”. We know you fought long and hard, and we’ll never forget the memories you gave us. Keep basking in the sun Misty-moo, and just bark when you’re ready to come back inside… We love you.
