Logan (February 2006)
Logan was our very special
senior citizen, and very dear to all the Beagle Paws group. He came
into our care after it was reported that an old, sick Beagle was
hanging around a wooded area. He was eventually found curled up in a
pile of sawdust that he had made into a bed. Logan had a number of
medical problems, including a large tumor that had to be removed
immediately. To recover, he went to the home of one of our executive
members, where he won them over with his unique personality, and
eventually his adoption was finalized. Logan's last year of life was
one of luxury, and he was given all the love, cuddles and treats a
little Beagle could stand. We hope that it made up in some way for the
terrible life he had known before. We all miss you, Logan. You will
always live in our hearts.

Pablo (April 2006) - Age 14
Pablo
didn’t have a lot of time with Beagle Paws but every day that he did
have was a blessing. Sweet Pablo was loved very much by his
foster home and everyone that met him. We are very grateful to
his caretakers for giving him the opportunity to know what it is like
to be truly loved.

Rover (1991-2006 )
Rover was my best friend. He
loved his family and his treats. He was a great singer to the Irish
Descendants. He was always happy and had a
smile on his face to help us through the bad times. We all loved
him especially his long velvet ears and his friendship to all of us. He
was
protective of his house and the people in it. He loved out on the deck
looking up the road and barking at nothing. One day he got out on the
deck and the door was open he went for a walk by himself a few days
later we had to do the hardest thing in our lives and say good bye to
him. He became sick and there was no other thing to do but to put him
down. This hit us hard but we did not want him to suffer. We know you
are in a good place now with no pain and lots of treats. To my buddy we
will miss you always and we know you will be looking down on us. We
will meet again some day.
Love,
Mark, Krystle, Mom, Dad and Bailey

Miss Ellie (2006 )
Miss Ellie graced our lives
for only a brief time. This little girl found her way to the
local SPCA shelter where she was then placed into the care of Beagle
Paws. All our volunteers and especially Miss Ellie's foster Mom feel
very blessed that we were able to show this little girl what it was
like to be loved and cherished in her twilight years.
Miss Ellie you will live
forever in our hearts.

Scotia (1993-2006)
Our beloved Scotia was
rescued from the SPCA in Nova Scotia when my son was just a year old.
He was not only my sons best friend he was like a child too me. Scotia
was the essence of a family pet. He stayed with Justin day and night.
We Scotia first arrived at our he had not been dewormed and he became
really sick, We nursed Scotia through some terrible illness and in turn
he gave us 13 of the most wonderful years. Scotia began to show
noticeable differences in his health during last winter and his bladder
was beginning to fail. So with a heavy heart we made the decision to
let our black buddy go with dignity. Justin sent his buddy home to keep
his Grandparents company. Heaven is a better place now Scotia has
arrived. Sleep with peace my FRIEND your are forever loved.

Terra (1996-2006)
Terra recently lost
her battle with cancer. We are all sadden by the loss of this
special girl. She brought joy to everyone who met her. We
feel blessed that we had an opportunity to know Terra even if it was
for a short time.
We know that Terra is
waiting at the Rainbow Ridge to see us all again. We love you
Terra !

A tragic accident lead
to Beagle Paws having to say good bye to Finnigan. This friendly
boy was cherished by his foster Mom and Dad who were just about to make
him a permanent member of their beagle clan.
Even though Finnigan's
time with Beagle Paws was short it was full of love and happiness for
that we are grateful.
Til we meet again Finnigan

Lady (June 1990 - November 2006)
It's been just over a
year Since Lady died, and I miss her everyday. My family got Lady when
I was 5, and after having her for 16 years she was more like another
kid in the family then a pet. She was even in our family photos when I
was 10.
Lady was an awesome dog she'd never bark, Never bit a sole. Before
she lost her hearing she never missed a beat. you couldn't whisper the
work "walk" and she'd be out at the back door sniffing her leash, She
was so unique too, My mom couldn't peel carrots without Lady sniffing
them out and wasn't long before she was at her feet waiting for hers
(she got her own full peeled carrot) She's basically eat anything but
onions, My favorite thing to do with her was feed her fruit loops,
flicking them across the floor and she'd chase and eat them. Or if she
wanted to be scratched she'd park herself by yout hand or foot. And
give you a little nudge to say "I'm here, scratch me"
In 2006, she hurt her leg, we still don't know how, and she went
downhill from there, she was on anti-inflammitories for a couple months
and her leg got better but then she slowly stoped eating as much, then
not as often, then not at all.. and her breathing got funny, she had
gotten very old and sick, so we had to make the ultimate decision, it
was so terrib;e to watch her suffer any long.
But now that she's gone, the house feels empty still, I still expect
her to meet me at the door when come home from work, or I
think I hear her come up the stairs,,... but she never does...her ashes
sit in a purple box above my computer now, my parents wanted to bury
her but I like her where is, I know she's close by. She'll always be
our dog Lady.

Angel (Unknown-2006)
Angel
came to us as sudden and unplanned as she left us. One cold night,
faith brought her (and her friend Buddy) to us. There was no way we
could turn down those two abused, cold faces. We let them into our
homes and our hearts. We asked Beagle Paws for help getting them. We
kept the two while they were featured on the website. They were so
happy to finally be loved and so eager to please us. Despite our hearts
not wanting to let Buddy go (we could not find an apartment in St. John
’s that would allow us 3 dogs), he got adopted to a wonderful family.
Angel stayed with us a few months longer and we actually found a nice
landlord that allowed dogs. One September evening while out on a walk
with Angel, we looked at how happy she was and we decided we were not
going to let her go! She graced our lives for 4 happy years.
Angel
tragically died in November. We were not ready to let her go. She came
into our lives and showed us that although people can be cold and
hurtful, she was willing to forgive. All it took to make her happy was
someone to love her. It is probably selfish of me to
say, but I am glad her
previous owners didn’t love her because I would have never found her, I
would have never seen how absolutely happy she was when she got a treat
or a rub, I would have never fell in love with her, would have never
fostered other dogs or wouldn’t be who I am today without her. I
am glad we had the chance to show her what it was like to be loved
because she truly deserved every ounce of love, plus more, that she
got. She came into our lives and left her paw prints over our hearts
and soles. Angel, we’d do or give anything to have you back, you
were too good for this world, we miss you so much. I hope we made you
as happy as you made us. RIP my little princess. You are, and will
always be, truly truly missed.
