Mishka was a shitzu and a loving companion to Tom Ayotte. About 8 years ago he was diagnosed with fibrous cancer in his front leg. It had to be amputated. His dad was totally devoted to him and very much spoiled. He was a happy little guy that sat up and also danced.

Mercury was adopted from the Sequoia Humane Society 15 years ago at the age of 11 months. We called him Mercury because he’d run as fast as a bullet down the beach, like the running back Mercury Morris. Unfortunately his speedy years were cut short when he ruptured a disk in his spine at the age of 5. After being paralyzed for 6 months Mercury learned to walk again, but his balance and speed were never very good. With age he lost more and more of his mobility, along with his hearing, eyesight and bladder control. But he never lost his spunk! Even when Mercury could no longer stand up by himself his eyes were bright and he was ready to go! Those of us who knew him will always love him dearly.

Jane "Griffith" - companion and best friend of Kathryn Griffith - passed away at the age of 15 recently. Jane was a happy, friendly dog that was never known to pass up a handout, espeically if it was roast beef, salami or almost anything else that was edible! She was also talented at getting her own doggie treats out of the bottom door.

Sally lived nine long, happy years, frolicking on the beach, chasing birds and balls, before succumbing to cancer.

Flo lived her last days cared for by the dedicated staff and volunteers at the Sequoia Humane Society, where she died of severe liver disease.

Speedy's short life started out poorly, but his last months were spent happily galloping down the halls of the Sequoia Humane Society with his feline buddy, Chloe. Speedy was plagued by a chronic skin condition that affected his ability to heal and caused him much discomfort, but it was a severe and sudden asthma attack that eventually ended Speedy's life. He will be remembered for his silly, tounge-filled smile!
