Phoebe Hiler
Aug 29, 2008 12:00 PM to Dec 31, 2023 12:00 PM|
August 29, 2008 - February 09, 2022 Phoebe was a surprise addition in 2008. Harold and Sally attended a family reunion never expecting to return home with a new member of the family. However as soon as Harold saw Phoebe and realized she was looking for a new home, he realized it was fate and she was for him. Phoebe enjoyed spending time with Harold, especially napping, until his death in May 2018. After that time she became Sally’s constant companion, still enjoying several daily naps.

Bullet Peters
Dec 1, 2009 12:00 PM to Nov 30, 2023 12:00 PMDecember 1, 2009 - November 14, 2021
Bullet was the best dog ever, my children used to ride him like a horse when they were babies and he would just sit back and humor all the funny behavior like it was nothing. Every time we came home he would be waiting for us with a big huge smile, it didn’t even matter if we were only gone for 5 minutes. We love you so very much Bullet, Thank You for giving us the best 11 years of your life.
IZZY Garver
Jan 5, 2010 12:00 PM to Feb 12, 2022 12:00 PM|
Izzy was the best dog i could have ever had. She was given to me and i gave her such a wonderful home during the 5 years i had her. She touched my heart so much and was always there for me when no one else was. She was quiet and loved being with me. Izzy loved when my grandma would give her some chicken and rice every time we went over to my grandparents. Our first Christmas together was such a special time. I gave her some stuffed animals but the one i had given her was her absolute favorite. She treated it like her little baby. All the toys i bought her she would always give that one special little bear all her attention. My izzy girl, there are so many memories i have of you. From us going camping together to us cuddling up in bed but especially when the day my mom passed away i remember grabbing and holding you while i cried. You were my beautiful little girl and i thank you for opening up your heart to me. I thank you for showing me how to love. Izzy you have changed my life and i will always remember you and all the times we had together ❤💔😭 you will forever be my little Izzy😭 RIP my sweet little girl until we meet again. |

Maggie Lasko
Jul 7, 2022 12:00 PM to Dec 31, 2023 12:00 PMDecember 3, 2099 - May 25, 2022
Maggie came to us when we really needed to smile. From the moment she bounced across the floor at 3 months old, we were in love with her. She was the most loving sweetheart you could of hoped for. She was content to just be beside us cuddling. Always giving us her love and kisses. It broke our hearts to lose her and we will forever miss her being a part of our family. She was our “daughter” in every way. Life is just not the same without her. She was such a fighter with all her health issues but this last one she couldn’t shake. She is at peace and we will see her at the Rainbow Bridge when we get there. Love you Maggie with all we are! ❤️

June 26, 2009 - August 21, 2022 We adopted our Chloe in June of 2012. Her spunky, sweet personality won us over on day one. She instantly became part of our family. She loved going on walks and chewing up her puppy beds. She will be deeply missed by the entire family. |
Salem Cartwright
Aug 29, 2022 12:00 PM to Dec 31, 2023 12:00 PM|
August 15, 2022 In loving memory of our sweet boy Salem. He chose us as his family when he showed up at our home and we took him in. He had such a personality! If he was hungry and we walked past him he would tap our leg. We purchased a fountain for all of our cats to use, Salem would just put his face directly in the fountain and let the water pour over his face. As much as we tried to keep him inside, he loved the outdoors. In the summer, he loved climbing trees and rolling around on the warm ground. In the cold, he would stay in and curl up in blankets, making biscuits and purring all winter long. He made such an impact on our family and we miss him dearly. We hope that you have found peace and we will see you again someday.

Lucy McCowin
Jul 10, 2023 12:00 PM to Dec 31, 2024 12:00 PM|
We rescued Lucy when she was 3 years old after a tragedy struck her previous owner. She was in foster care with a friend of a friend, who shared her story on Facebook and that she was looking for a home. We weren't looking for a dog, but something about her just said "meet me." So we did and our lives changed forever. She was the absolute best (but sometimes wild) dog you could have ever asked her. She was our best friend. Our sweet Lucy girl, we will miss you so very much. You have brought us so much joy, love, and laughter over the last 9 years. We are glad you are no longer suffering and can play with your cousins in doggy heaven. Rest easy, Luce the Goose. We love you. |

Liam Dodd Kellner
Dec 19, 2024 12:00 PM to Dec 31, 2025 12:00 PMLiam Dodd Kellner
Liam Dodd blessed us by joining our family on October 28, 2013. He was a blessing from day one. Liam was, by far, the most loyal friend ever. He was quite a character and full of personality. Liam enjoyed an extra-spoiled lifestyle from the start. We were lucky enough to celebrate 122 holidays together over the 11 years we shared together, not including his own special birthday celebrations. On his tenth anniversary, he was treated to a weekend getaway with his loving parents at a B&B in Gettysburg, and he was the talk of the town. He traveled the streets wearing his birthday hat and scarf, getting attention from so many people as they smiled at him riding along in his special stroller. He enjoyed extra special meals that weekend, and even a trip to Kilwin’s Ice Cream Shoppe. He also got to walk and run on the trails, getting to enjoy nature.
Through the years, he enjoyed walks several times a week and especially liked to go to the little park near our house. The last couple years as health problems arose, he looked forward to sitting in his stroller being wheeled around by his loving Mother. People would walk or drive by and always slow down and smile, and you could truly see the enjoyment on both of our faces.
Another thing Liam particularly enjoyed was a tasty, yet tiny, slice of pizza on a Friday night, and a drive to Starbucks with Cassandra for a Pup-Cup was never turned down. He really enjoyed car rides, especially going to different parks in the area.
A family vacation was never complete until a special outfit or present was bought just for Liam.
There’s so much more I could write about my most loyal sweet boy, but that would take a lifetime. The joy Liam brought and the impact he made will be forever missed. There will never be another like him. I thank God for blessing me with being his Mom.
Liam passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 21, 2024, in the arms of his loving Mother, his Pet Dad Jeff, and Sister Cassandra. He also leaves behind his Gramma who loved him very much, and his Bassett Hound Sister, Dixie Mae, who is still looking for him. Liam was preceded in death by his beloved sister Lady, and many other pet siblings.
Liam’s family will always hold dear the caring staff at Apple Grove Veterinary Clinic, including Drs. Jeff and Andy McKissick, Sidney, all of the technicians, and the wonderful front desk staff who always made time for us, especially the last several months as health issues arose.
I will forever miss you, but know we will be together again one day. Until then, I will try my best to pay forward the pure joy that you gave to me for the 11 years we were together. I love you, My Sweetest Boy. I’ll meet you at the Bridge.
Codi Holzapfel-King
Jan 8, 2025 12:00 PM to Jan 8, 2025 12:00 PMCodi was the third born puppy and second son of Loki and Suki. He was a Jack Russell Terrier who took after his mother in coloration, having a black mask and all white body. Having been born with Atresia Ani and no tail, Codi sadly did not get to experience the joy of opening his eyes or wagging his tail. Our greatest blessing was that he didn’t suffer and passed comfortably and happily in the arms of his caregiver and bonus mom, Cassidy King. Codi will be forever loved and missed by Alyssa and Zachary, as well as Cassidy and Dylan. Now over the rainbow bridge, our sweet angel baby can wag his little tail that he didn’t get to have in his short life.

He was a little old man when adopted into the family in 2013. Yes, he bit all the shelter workers, had no hair, and was very thin. He found his forever home via his "Boy". He was brave fighter to the very end, just like his namesake from Call of Duty ( given to him by his Boy). He loved his family and sometimes tolerated others. He taught the students at Vo-Tech that veterinary work is not all kisses and cuddles. He crossed the rainbow bridge knowing he was loved and left paw prints on the hearts of his Boy (Dax Kuznarik, who saved him from the shelter and loved him from the very start.), his very patient Mom and Dad (who had a hard time doing the right thing by allowing him to go.), his Grandma ( Shirley Hardie, who shared whatever she was eating with him.) and his adopted siblings Daisy and Rebel.We will all meet you at the rainbow bridge someday and we can run together once more. |
Daisy Oehling
May 25, 2011 - October 20, 2019
Daisy was a blessing to me. She was my best friend. Daisy was the most loveable and kind dig anyone would meet. Daisy listen on command and she was so good I didn't even have a chain for her. Daisy was my first and only female dog so she was my little Golden Retriever Princess. She had her own bed and pillow. Daisy will be missed everyday and a piece of me definitely passed with her. Rest easy Baby girl and I can't wait to see you again. Mommy and I love you Daisy and all of your family, siblings and Snowball. Rest easy till we meet again...
Auggie Flaim
April 16, 2011-November 13, 2019
Auggie was a loving and energetic pup who greeted everyone with a little bit of spunk. He loved being our “alarm system”, crumb vacuum and couch snuggler. We were so fortunate to have had Auggie love and protect both of our children. We miss him deeply but now know he is happily catching treats with other pups.

Lily Grady
April 11, 2008 - December 20, 2019
Lily came to us at a time when we really needed her. She helped to lift our spirits and look forward with some hope. She loved people and always greeted everyone with enthusiasm, her whole body wiggling joyfully! But Lily was an independent spirit, so she would quickly be off to do her own thing. She loved to wander around our big yard, run and bark at the deer, and to lay on the porch or looking through the glass door, enjoying the sunshine and watching for anyone going by. Lily was very intelligent, and learned to train us by tapping on the treat door and looking at us to tell us to give her a treat, and to bark at her toy basket until we pulled out the correct toy for her. She spoke to us in soft grunts, and would answer questions with an "Uh-huh," "uh-uh," or "mmmmmmm." She loved to go hang with the other dogs at the groomers, and then would prance proudly to show off her gorgeous soft coat when she returned. Lily was the sweetest girl. She made us laugh, she filled us with joy, she was an important part of our family. Lily was deeply beloved, and we will miss her more than we can express.

Jack Dickey

Nov. 9, 2010-Jan. 31, 2020 Elway was a wonderful little dog who we took in in 2016 after his owner, my nephew moved away....He was a jack Russell terrier and boy was he a handful ! Our other pets didn't know what to think about this tornado like dog who was the cock of the block...they grew to love him, especially our cat.....he loved all the pets.....he loved baths and loved to swim and lay on the raft in the pool with our pets😄 Elway was always the underdog in life...though he was always protective and ready to bite, he was an important and cherished family member😄 upon having dental surgery it was found this underdog had a rare soft tissue cancer which was very aggressive....His quality of life was good and we enjoyed all the holidays of 2019 with him.....the cancer was eroding the side of his face and muzzle and I made the awful decision to end his ordeal.....he was happy up until that instant when he left this world for Heavens pastures to greet our other pets.....He was brought into the care of Cunningham pet cremation services....They took wonderful care of him and he is now back home where he was happiest....God gave us our little dog for a limited time on this earth but this underdog had the heart of a lion....he brought absolute joy to our lives and he will be sorely missed....May the Lord grant Elway endless days of happiness with our other pets in heaven and we're looking forward to seeing our boy again someday😄 God bless Elway!!! |
Pupcake Swift
Pupcake was our sweet bubby. He spent his days waiting to snuggle anyone willing to snuggle. He would "trap you" on the couch, known as our "Snuggle Bubby". He loved spending his days on the sunporch, barking at the birds and squirrels, and doing tricks for his favorite treat of a carrot. You are loved, sadly missed, and forever in our hearts.

Kobe was a sweet boy who loved "playing basket" jumping, barking, and scratching a laundry basket. Kobe also enjoyed chasing a laser pointer around, walking, and going for rides. Kobe is deeply missed by his family and Uncle Jack.
Malice Kirchell
Malice was my absolute best friend in the entire world. She had more personality and love in her than most people do. Her favorite things to do were to cuddle under the blankets (often waking me up a million times a night by tapping me on the face to let her under), sit on the back of my chair while I worked at my desk, and do some pretty crazy yoga moves in the warmth of the sunlight. She wasn’t just a pet, she was a soulmate. I will miss her immensely, but I know she’ll always be watching over me now 💜 Rest easy my sweet girl.
