Prissy and Taz
ByTodd De Haven
A while back I wrote an article on some longstanding canine residents we called the “P” puppies because they all had names that began with the letter “P.” They’ve all been adopted save the dog pictured above, Prissy, a one year old Rot mix and ee don’t have a clue as to why she hasn’t. Prissy has been with us almost one full year and she so desperately needs a home. She is so very loveable and she absolutely loves playing outside with tennis balls and other toys, taking long walks or just curling up at your feet. Won’t someone please adopt this wonderful, precious animal who has been an orphan far too long. Just drop by our Animal Adoption Center at 950 Hal Henard Road and our staff will be thrilled to introduce you to our adored Prissy. We’re sure, you’ll adore her as well! Oh, and she comes with a greatly discounted adoption rate!
Taz Crosses the Rainbow Bridge
About a week ago, one of my favorite dogs who who had a one in a thousand personality, quietly passed away. Taz belonged to Chris Schackleford, an “adopted” daughter who takes care of our cats when we’re out of town. His name (a shortened form of Tazmanian Devil) fit him to a “T,” I kid you know when I say that when Tax was wearing his sunglasses, he was definitely Mr. Cool! In honor of Taz, Chris wrote a little poem which I wanted you to read. God Bless you Taz, you’ll certainly be missed
TAZ
Taz was our pet
As most people say
To us he was family
Now sadly he’s passed away
He lived for many years
That was little comfort
It did not stop our tears
Taz was our protector
Never did we fear
If a bad stranger came calling
He’d just bite ‘em in the rear
Taz was our friend
You could tell him all
He would listen to your problems
No matter how big or small
Taz is gone now
I can still see his face
God has now called him
To his final resting place
Taz, We will miss you
You’re always in our hearts
We’ll carry you with us forever
We’ll never be apart.
