Reb 5-2008
We had to have Reb euthanized. He was having a lot of difficulty breathing. his abdomen was full of fluid and it was pushing on his diaphragm so he could hardly breath. he could no longer get up and would have probably died in the next day or so . He also had a large mass in his abdomen and Nancy said it was probably cancer. She came to the house and euthanized him so he would not be stressed. If he would have lived until Nov., he would have been 16 years old.
Lucy 2008
Lucy will be missed all of us here at SCRR.
Elwood 2008
Elwood,1998-2008 he is sadly missed by the Davis Family
Lyka 2007 ,
In loving memory of Lyka the Wood family.
Midori 7/2007 ,
Midori is the sweetest soul you can imagine. She had a tough fight for her life and ultimately lost. She was abandoned to starve with an imbedded color; recovered, came down with cancer; beat that, developed a bad blood disease; beat that, then developed Pneumonia from the treatment. She lost her fight but not after haveing two years of love and care and being treated like she deserved to be treated. We will miss her kind sweet sprit.
Viloet 10/2007
We saved Violet 4 years ago. Violet was rescued from a shelter where she would have been euthanized. At the time of her SCRR Inc. rescue we found she had been suffering from pyometria and would have died with a day or two. She also suffered from autoimmune disease. Violet has had a hard life but we kept her here at our rescue and gave her a great last four years of her life. She was developed bone cancer and finally lost her fight on life. She will be missed.
Buoy 7/2007
We are very sad to hear about the passing or our former rescue Buoy.
Buoy was severely injured by someone hitting him in the head,
rupturing his eyes so that they had to be removed. He was just left
to die on the streets in Richmond. We took him in and got him the
necessary surgery so that he could live pain free.Nobody wanted to
adopt him because he was blind, until Marta and Jack came along.
They cared for and loved him for 5 wonderful years until old age
finally caught up with him. We wish to thank Marta and Jack for
giving Buoy a wonderful life.
Victor 12/06 ,
Victor was a big boy with a big heart. We were fortunate to find him, and hold dear the time we spent with him----the Hewett family
Calie,
Cali was truly a gentle soul who only wanted a home with love. She wanted lots of hugs (the tighter the better), walks next to Big Chico
Creek, cats who would pay her any attention, and food. We love how Cali
would spin around when she played and how she shook her own feet off
the ground when she did the dog shake. Cali truly was our princess and
she is sadly missed. The Hudson family
Sammy 2006
In memory of Sammy, the most gentle and beautiful of dogs
Kelly 1992-2006
A kind and gentle soul, she was always ready with
a smile and friendly wag ofher tail. Friend to Rotties Caitlin and
Hilde.
Gracie 8/15/06 ,
Gracie came to us in Dec 04,at that time she was probably around 12 years old. Thrown away on the side of the road with her bed and water dish, Gracie was never adopted and lived here at our rescue until Aug 15 06, Gone but not forgotten.
Princes 7/06,
"She was my best friend and my heart" greatly missed by the Strickland family
Spencer 2/06 ,
Spencer had so many great qualities, he was so full of personality and life. He liked to play on the jungle gym at the neighborhood park. He would climb the stairs, run across the wobbly bridge and just fly down the slide. He'd land in the sand at the bottom of the slide with such excitement and adrenaline, you'd have to prepare yourself for it.
Spencer did not deal with dogs that were anything other than friendly and playful - he would simply walk away from unfriendly dogs. Spencer changed the opinions of so many people who thought poorly of Rottweiler’s. He stole everyone's heart, I imagine because it just didn't occur to Spencer that someone might not want to be his friend.
Chewy 2005 & Asia 5/06 ,
These are the two happiest pals you and Dawn brought into my life. They brought us happiness and laughter that only great memories can capture. I wanted to say thanks for blessing Dawn and I with such awesome companions! We lost Chewy last year and Asia a week ago, but even though our hearts are filled with sadness, we know they are both frolicking in a happier place with their bones.
Tony 9/97 - 1/05
Tony liked to bury his face in your lap and get head massages. He loved to lean on you, lay on top of you, and cuddle with you. He was an excellent swimmer and a always a good eater. A very handsome Rottweiler, he was always good company. Tony is survived by his girlfriend Bella.
We will miss him
Jordon 11/04
Dear Elaine,
I just wanted to let you and our sponsor family know that we had Jordan put to sleep today. We would like to say thank you for everything you and our sponsor family has done for us. But mostly for giving us a second chance and continue to have Jordan with us even when we we're financially unable to do so. Thank you for allowing our children the opportunity to love and feel the love from a companion & pet as wonderful as Jordan. Our childrens' lives are better for sharing this special bond with Jordan. Words cannot express our appreciation. We will forever remember all of your generosity and kindness. The Miller Family
TARGHEE
(our "Shadow Chaser")
The JORDAN FUND had been funded by Targhee's loving family. Jordan, the Rottweiler, with his loving family. Thanks to the generosity of TARGHEE's FAMILY, Jordan is being treated for his medical condition and able to stay with his family.
SCRR Inc. Note: Jordan's family had him with them for many more months thanks to the financial assistance of Targhee's Family. It was the wish of Targhee's family that Jordan be able to stay with his family.. and they generously made that happen!
Cayla our Sunshine Girl
1998-2006
Jazz 2/94 - 8/04
Jazz loved unconditionally. I have never loved an animal so much. She was always there to love, kiss and play. Or just to cuddle and watch TV. We got Jazz when I was pregnant and she grew up with our family, and was truly part of our family. When we lost her to cancer at 10 it was so hard. Jazz enriched our lives. She taught people that Rotts can truly be gentle. I always joked that if we were robbed as long as they pet her she would hold the door open for them. We love you Jazz and we will miss our water dog. The Brandenburg family.
Saidik
Saidik was the most courageous, devoted and tender hearted creature that I have ever known. Eight years was too short a time as I still had so much left to learn from her. She touched many peoples' lives with both her enthusiasm and her quiet resolve. Her special radiance will always be with me and those who loved her. The Ross Family.
Brave Heart 10/19/04
With great sadness, the volunteers of SCRR Inc. mourn the passing of Braveheart. At least during his last months of life he learned what love, caring and companionship was all about. Even the heroic care by his wonderful foster family, the Lewis family, could not reclaim what years of abuse had brought about.
May Braveheart rest in peace at the rainbow bridge and may the people at the towing yard in Sacramento who abused him for so many years, receive their just rewards. We wish to thank the Lewis family for all the care, and love that they gave Braveheart during the time that he spent at their home. Elaine
Jordan 11/94- 8/05
Jordan was a gentle giant our friend and companion for eleven years. At 120 pounds he forgot he
wasn't a puppy and preferred to be a lap dog whenever he got the
chance. He loved his family and was always excited to go on adventures
whether it was a walk to the mailbox or a ride to vacation. He was an
ambassador to his breed! We miss him greatly and he will always be a part of our family memories.
~ Donna, William, Andrew and Louisa
