WORLD ANIMAL REMEMBRANCE MONTH
Today, I reflect on the
memories of Brave, my family’s Dalmatian of 14 years who we lost to cancer in 2010;
Pete, Ginger Morgan’s heartdog who she lost shortly after the 2 Dogs 2000 Miles cross-country walk completion;
Lexie, Beckye & John Eckert’s baby girl they lost to breast cancer in 2010;
Murphy who was given rest from this world just a few days past the 1 year
anniversary of the completion of his cross-country walk with Luke Robinson
& Hudson to raise awareness of the disease that took him;
Buddy, Ginger Morgan’s fighter who survived being shot, Katrina and a hard-fought battle with cancer—Buddy passed not long after Murphy;
and Maddy Sneddon, who we lost not long ago but is smiling down on the Sneddon’s new pup, Beanie, right now.
Please take a moment to remember an animal that touched your life and has passed on. Post a memory of an animal you have loved and lost in the blog comments section below.

The PALS foundation is credited with designating September as World Animal Remembrance Month. I think it is a worthwhile thought, so I perpetuate it and share it with you. For info: PALS Foundation, PO Box 1271 , San Luis Obispo , CA 93406
