Hatchett

No, Dad you can’t go with me.  For many years we have walked side by side and have gone down this road together, but, the Rainbow Bridge is a journey that I alone must take.  At first, it will be different without you by my side and not hearing your footsteps or the sound of your walking stick next to me. You have always guided me safely and I have always felt secure in your care. Once I cross over, I will be renewed, I will be able to run through the fields and chase the butterflies again. I must believe that we will see each other again someday, but for now, Dad, you can’t come with me, for the Rainbow Bridge is a journey that I alone must take.  
 

In 2018, we adopted Hatchett from German Shepherd Rescue & Adoptions. He was the most wonderful friend that we have ever had...we loved him SO much. We lost Hatchett to a terrible degenerative spine disease this past August. He fought a valiant fight, but in the end, it was becoming increasingly more difficult for him to get up and to take our walks that we both enjoyed so much. We finally made the difficult decision to give him peace. We have been heartbroken over the loss of our good and faithful friend and will never forget the love and joy that he brought to us. We believe that someday, we will be together and will continue to walk the path once again. We love and miss you so much, Hatchett!




Toby

Toby crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Aug 22, 2024. We will be forever thankful to GSRA of NC for bringing Toby into our lives. Thank you to his foster mom Jen for introducing us back in 2011. Toby came home to us Feb 12, 2012. Toby loved his walks and cuddles on the couch. He had many friends (human, feline, and canine). The 12 years we had Toby in our lives were wonderful. He is missed everyday. Rest in peace sweet boy. Kelly and Rob




Bentley (fka Stewie)

 

Bentley (GSRA alum 2018) was found in a Bojangles parking lot, in bad shape. After being fostered, he came to us on December 30, 2018. Bentley was a happy boy, always had a ball nearby to chew on...and occasionally let you throw for him to get. He loved to lay on the AC vent looking out the window, with a ball nearby. He crossed on August 16, 2024.




Lupa (GSRA class of 2015)

Utterly patient, unmistakably empathetic, super gentle and friendly, eager to please, and a bundle of joy to have around are some of the words that describe the Lupa we knew. She unselfishly gave us nine wonderful years (2015-2024) of happiness by sharing her joy with us and everyone around her, including total strangers she had never met. Her magical power of drawing people onto her was endless; that might be why hardly anyone passes by her, even from the other side of the road, without praising her beauty or wanting to pet her. We think it is not just her appearance, but also her trusting open heart. Lupa was everyone's friend.

Lupa was "expressive" in many ways. We wish we had a Google Translate for doggie talk to have known what she was saying exactly through her different barks, howls, yelps, even though we understood her underlying feelings. Her body expressions were unmistakable when she was happy and excited to go out of the house, to go for a walk, to meet her four legged friends and their two-legged parents, and to welcome people into her house.

Through the many precious and fond memories that she left us with, Lupa will live in our hearts forever.




Kimber

I am forever appreciative to GSRA for the opportunity to love Kimber. Although I was familiar with GSDs I had never worked with a Belgian Mallinois before, and, boy was I in for a treat! Kimber was every bit of energy that Mallinois' are known for. She loved to stay on the go! She immediately took to her off-leash training and won the heart of her instructor as well. She was an amazing blessing in my life and I treasure my memories of her. She truly was the sweetest dog, she loved people and especially adored little children. I enjoyed sharing my life with her and she always looked out for me. I thank the Lord that He gave me a sweet angel as a companion for many years. She was my best friend and brought me so much joy. I miss her snuggles and antics of messing with the cat. Thank you, Kimber, you touched so many hearts with your warm personality and abundant love. You are forever free to swim and run.
