Memories
Big Meadow in the Sky Page
Dedicated to all my animal companions who shared their lives with me.
I learned something from each of you and I want to thank you for allowing me to tell your stories.
(Where I do not have actual pictures, I found some on the internet that are very close just to honor the memories. I need to dig out some old photos and digitize them to get them on here.)

The most was 11 (5 Guinea pigs, 5 cats, 1 dog) at one time with 2 adults and 3 kids. Now we have only 5 (2 dogs, 3 cats). But wait a week and that will change. Never know who finds their way to the zoo. <3

This is a sweet memory page. I’m glad I found your DogDaz site. I remember Nikki, Squash, Cuddles, Zachary, Muffin, Alice and Gertrude with much affection. I marvel at how you managed the care for so many, making time to give each love and attention. Plus the piggies too. I miss my dogs, Ginger and Augie, not to mention, Louie, my 5 year old sky blue and white parakeet, who flew away during last year’s earthquake. Your pretty blonde dog looks a lot like my Augie, only smaller. I look forward to reading more updates on your zoo!

So glad you found us. Yes, you were there for many of the zoo, new and old, and especially for Peanut through all these years. I did not know that your bird flew the coop. That is so sad. I remember Ginger and Augie. Sofie is definitely smaller but just as feisty.
