Alf
Seven and a half years ago a new friend came into my life, Alf. He brought more joy and laughter to me then I could even have imagined. When I decided to move from Israel to the United States, Alf and Dusty were the only two things I needed to feel at home.

A year ago, Alf was diagnosed with Lymphoma and I thought that my world was destroyed. My best friend, who I needed every day, was being robbed from me in cruel way, but we were not going to give up without a fight first.

We visited several clinics before finding you all. None gave us the comfort and care that we were able to find with you. None kept me as involved with his treatments. I felt that here, people really cared about Alf. The way the crew here operates is really unique.

When the time came for me to say good-bye to my friend, the decision was made easier by knowing that you had done everything you could to help him. Saying goodbye is never easy, but knowing you would be there to offer a kind word made the process as comfortable as possible for us. You allowed Alf to have a dignified and peaceful ending to his much too short life. For this, I truly thank you and will never forget you.

Shalom, Ron Hoffman (and Dusty)

Barney
You've treated me like I was a member of your own family. I could not have asked for anything better. You have a special place in my heart and I'll remember you forever.

Love and Puppy Kisses,

Barney

Bonkers
...From the time he was 2 months old until his passing, Bonkers gave us all immense joy. His playful and happy attitude was always a part of him, even when he was under going treatment. We want to extend our deepest gratitude to you for your compassion while caring for him. You are a wonderful, genuine person who always made us feel secure and confident...

Love,

Brett Schoenhals, Javier Delgado, Cynthia Schoenhals

Buddy
I think I knew from the beginning that Buddy didn't have that much  time, but in all honesty I didn't think we'd be going on two months based on what his Vet originally said. The biggest difference... has been the compassion. Other Vets I've spoken to were much more clinical and matter of fact without addressing the pain felt when a loved pet, a member of a family for many of us, is dying. I never thought I'd be going the route I've gone with Buddy... but there's just something about looking at  that little guy and all of the joy he's brought, and thinking if  there's a little hope for a little more good time, then he deserves it and the extra time spent together is worth it. Definitely human  feelings and projections, yes? So far I think it has been worth it...and I guess Buddy & I & my husband know it's not for that much longer, so we're okay with it.

There are so many good things to say about Pawspice - here are a few of my thoughts:
- It's giving us a great and long good-bye.
-We've had quality time we didn't think we had.
-Pawspice helps extend the quality of many great lives.
-I wasn't looking for a miracle, just a compassionate place to keep Buddy happy for as long as he wanted to be around.

... He was truly an amazing dog, enduring two months of an illness with hardly a complaint or interruption in his daily game of fetch, jumping into the car to go bye-bye or his sacred pastime of eating. He went to sleep quite peacefully in his favorite spot by the backyard, after one final indulgence of Haagen Daz's Vanilla Swiss Almond.... He gave us a long good-bye and will be missed. He was definitely a lucky dog, but not as lucky as we were for the sheer joy that had been brought into our lives these last 10 years by a little guy appropriately named, Buddy Love.
