In Memory
Name: Max
Breed: Newfoundland
Location: Timaru
“I had the honour of working by Max's side for many years. He was as courageous as I was fearful. With his guiding paws I was able to overcome my severe agoraphobia and slowly over the years found I had got my independence back. No longer did I have to rely on my husband for everything. He walked beside me through many painful days and joyful days and finally passed away peacefully in his sleep when I had almost full independence back. Max will never be forgotten.”

“Gemma was beautiful and intuitive. Gemma was my guardian angel. She looked after me, she loved me. Gemma was always by my side. I miss her every day.”
Name: Tana
Breed: American Golden Retriever
Location: Auckland (South)
“Tana was an extension of me and he was my connection to the world. He alerted to my oncoming seizures and provided invaluable physical assistance and mobility support. Most of all, Tana was my closest friend, my constant companion and my only family. I am lost without him and yet incredibly grateful for how much he enriched my life, and the lives of so many over the six years we shared together. You will live forever in my heart and memories, my beautiful boy. Your legacy will live on..."”
Name: Trudy
Breed: Border Collie
Location: Auckland
“My darling Trudy. I close my eyes and I can still feel your soft fur on my face. Your gentle breath on my cheek. Your warm, reassuring kisses. Tail always wagging, eyes bright and smiling. I snuggle my face deep into your ruff. Our hearts beating as one. I will always love you and will never forget all you have done for me. Thank you for being my best friend. For understanding me. For giving me life. You gave me your heart, and I gave you mine.”
