Our darling Minnie left us to join Boofie (our first pet since Robert, my husband, and I have been together). Minnie was the explorer of the family, the most fittest of our four kids, Boofie (deceased), Minnie (decease), Ebonie (Minnie’ Sister), Buddie (Ebonie’ Son). We would run up the dirt roads while Mum and Dad drove the ute. Minnie was fastest, then Eb, then Boof. When Buddie was born he was running at 8 weeks or earlier, it was so beautiful to see him try and keep up with his Mum and Aunty. He soon worked out he could run faster then Boof, but Minnie was always the champion. Minnie was always running into the paddocks off the dirt to explore or chase a kangaroo, but still come back out on the dirt road ahead of everyone. Then at 14 she took very ill and life was never the same. She couldn’t run or explore anymore and struggled just to get up a step. We kept looking after our little Minnie to the end. We only hope that she is having fun with our Boofie now. We love you so much Minnie.
My darling girl not a day will go by where I won’t miss your nickers or that mare attitude of yours. You were a beautiful horse and an important part of our family. I am at peace knowing your are running free with no pain. Miss you my girl forever and always xx

It is devastating to lose our 15 year old Leah, such a precious and loved member of our family. Thanks to Asher and wonderful staff at WestVets Leah is at peace. We will never forget the way she brightened our lives. Now Leah will run and play in God’s garden.

Kenny the Cattle Dog 4th July 2001 – 16th April 2016 Kenny ( Blue Dog ) was adopted by us from the Sunshine Coast Animal Refuge when he was four years old. We chose him because of his cheeky, posed smile that he had in the photograph on their website. We drove up from Ipswich to collect him and, on the way home, we called into a pet shop to buy him a bed and dog mat and all the other stuff that dogs need. When we tried him on his cushioned dog mat, he wouldn’t get off so we had to drag him around the store until we got to the checkout. We gave him his first hydro bath that day – which he hated. He was a terrific dog to have in the family – very loyal and very protective of Trish and our / his property. He loved his walks around the streets and parks of Ipswich, his swims at Moogerah Dam and Fingal Beach and loved chasing his football. Every afternoon between 5.00 and 6.00 pm was family time in the backyard with Kenny – having a beer and throwing or kicking his ball with him. About 12 months ago, Kenny developed Cushing Syndrome and that slowed him up a bit and, more recently, his back legs went on him as did his eye sight and hearing. We did the humane thing and had Kenny euthanised at the Booval Vet Hospital on Saturday 16th April followed by a cremation at Pet R.I.P in Ipswich. It was a very difficult decision for us to make as Kenny loved us dearly and will be sadly missed by us. Nothing can change the experiences that we shared with Kenny. The past is secure and cannot be changed by time or circumstance. We are so grateful that we were able to be a part of Kenny’s journey through life. Not the least hard thing to bear when they go from us, these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so many years of our own lives – John Galsworthy Rest in Peace our Kenny.
