Oliver was born on August 2, 2018 in Punxsutawney, PA.  He was a huge dog and had a huge personality to match.  He was goofy, and loveable and made friends everywhere he went.  When Oliver went anywhere, he drew a crowd of admirers and he loved being the center of attention.  He was photographed by strangers hundreds of times, he was truly a sight to behold.

Oliver’s favorite things included going “bye- byes”, strolling the neighborhood with mom, counter-surfing, having visitors, and eating cheese. 

Oliver is survived by his human family, Sharyn (mom), Dale (dad), August, Elliot, Joshua, and Garrett, who all miss him very much.  Also survived by feline brother Max, and canine brother Gizmo.  Oliver will always be remembered by his other favorite people, Gloria, Sam, and the mail lady.

JAZZI WAS A VERY HAPPY AND LOVABLE SHIH TZU. SHE FOUND HER FOREVER HOME ON FEBRUARY 19, 2010, AT THE AGE OF 2. SHE BROUGHT SO MUCH JOY, LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO EVERYONE AND EVERY DAY. SHE LOVED HER “MILLER MAN” COMPANION AND THEY SHARED THEIR DINNERS TOGETHER. JAZZI PASSED AWAY IN HER FAVORITE STOP IN HER BACKYARD, VERY PEACEFULLY AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF BEING ILL. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE OUR JAZZI GIRL AND FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS.

Hadji was born on March 27, 2007 on the porch of a nice older couple, who gave me my choice of kitten.  I picked Hadji, the little quiet grey one in the back of the box.  We had 14 years of playing, tripping us when he ran under our feet, and stealing our bread and cheese.  Hadji left this earth and took another piece of my heart with him. He leaves behind his “mom” Jackie and “dad” Wojtek, as well as his cat brother Eddie. Hadji joins his cat brothers Malcolm and snuggle buddy Andrew in heaven, as well as his mom and Aunt Georgie and Uncle Jack (who found him.) I already miss you tremendously and love you three forever.

Buddha Roskov passed away on July 1 2021 at the age of 12. He was proceeded by his brother Waldo and saved by sister Rain and by human family. He was a very fun,loving,and playful cat. He loved to chased string,lick bags and be the best cuddle buddy. Buddha will forever be missed and even though he is gone he will never be forgotten. He left paw prints in everyone's heart and we will always see you when the sun shines.
 

 Annie Anderson July 30, 2010 – June 10, 2021 Annie was the quintessential adventure dog. Traveling in the car and discovering all that the world had to offer – woods, ponds, deer, Sonic Drive-ins – brought her such joy. It goes without saying that she was the finest, and most beautiful, of companions with a deserved reputation of being the dog that never did anything bad in her entire life. While Annie had no real tolerance for any other creature (except her beloved Porter), she was always ready to greet her many human friends, family and fans with kisses and perhaps, if you were chosen, a chin bite. She loved balls, especially those that squeaked, and small squeaky toys. She lived for a good round of “Go find!” and could be counted on to be near no matter what activity I was involved in. She frequently stopped by to raise morale at my workplace, befriended the mailman and delivery drivers (once she knew they carried treats) and never even came close to “eating” anyone. Annie traveled to nine states, and lived in two. I will always treasure those days at the Darby Falls Farm in Kentucky, road trips to Ithaca, New York, Indianapolis, Memphis and Virginia and the folk we met along the way. Spending quiet time just sitting on the patio together was my favorite part of the day. Annie was always strong, and loyal and brave and funny. She actually buried bones! She made me laugh, and gave me security, serenity, love and companionship every moment of her life. Sadly, Annie had many health complications in her short life, but they never kept her down for long. Annie made it clear that she was my girl from the first time I laid eyes on her until our very last moments together. But, being the sweet and loving girl that she was, she touched many hearts. I will inadvertently leave out someone – my apologies. To her Aunt Rhonda, Uncle Greg, Aunt Sally, Trish, Larry & Fatima, Jen, Kenia, Erin, Lyndsey, Erika, Karen, Neighbor Mike, Gail, K8, and her trainer, Rachel – thank you for being a part of her world. Finally my deepest gratitude to Brenton – your kindness meant the world to us. I am grateful to all of you that celebrated her birthdays, went on adventures and otherwise were part of the best decade of my life. I will miss you beyond words, Annie, but I will never cease thinking of and remembering you every day until the end. I love you, Pantz. – – Mama

Chachi Oliver Yates lost his very courageous battle with IMPA on Thursday May 20 at PVSEC surrounded by his loving family. Chachi was a special needs chihuahua that was rescued from Animal Friends Westmoreland in May 2018. Little did we know that day how this tiny 3 pound dog would change us and help change the world for the better. Shortly after adoption, Chachi was given his diagnosis and we vowed to give him the best life possible. He enjoyed snacking on cheeseburgers, fries, strawberry yogurt and his daddy giving him Cheerios. He lived life to the fullest last summer running through the grass and sitting in the sun. He was loved dearly by his fur sister Paislee who napped with him, shared treats with him and most importantly helped him feel secure. There were so many wonderful people that shared their love for Chachi from all around the world and most importantly the ones who helped in his care. Candy, Bethany and staff from Animal Friends Westmoreland, Dr. Chisell, Jennifer and his special Auntie Rachel who always smothered him in kisses from PVSEC, Bobby, Constance and Nathan from Big Guy, Littles World Sanctuary and his Uncle Val who taught him how to trust. Chachi you were one loved little guy, Momma’s Peanut and Daddy’s Little Man.

Don’t cry because it’s over;

smile because it happened

Dr. Seuss 

Sometimes the smallest things

take up the most room in your heart

My heart will always wear the paw prints left by you. I will love and miss you forever my Charlotte

Blue   I knew the time would come
             When we would have to part
           But you will never be forgotten
             You left paw prints on my heart.

Sammy…
Beloved and faithful companion who loved his family.
He never passed up the chance to go on a walk, 
and always helped himself to other people’s food.
May you rest easy our sweet beautiful puppy.
We will Forever Miss You!
