Please join us in offering our most sincere condolences to Renee & Les on the loss of their TOESR dog, Beau. Having been adopted as a young pup, Renee & Les had recently lost another sheepdog and Beau helped to fill a void in their family. Little did anyone know that Beau and his quirky ways would become one of our 'iconic' dogs. Beau was known to so many people and attended most of the TOESR picnics. He graced the pages of our calendar multiple times and usually brought along his sister, Gracie! Renee summed things up with her words, 'this photo of Beau sums up the shift of his role from the wild and crazy guy to my protector and constant companion as my health has deteriorated. We have been nothing short of blessed to have had the opportunity to be given the stewardship of our three Tarheel pups' lives. It's amazing that they have given us so much and only asked for love in return'. We all can attest to just how much our dogs give us, asking little. We'll never forget Beau and will hold Beau's sister Gracie in our thoughts as she also misses him. RIP Beau.

Please join us in offering our most sincere condolences on the loss of TOESR dog, Forrest. to Becky and George. Forrest had come to our group as a reluctant rehoming situation and it didn't take long to find him the perfect home with them. Forrest lived a life full of love but as so many of our dogs, suffered from hip dysplasia & had mobility issues until his death at the age of 12.5 years old. In her own words, Becky said 'for the last 18 months, Forrest had been involved in hydro treadmill and cold laser therapy as well as acupuncture. Things worsened however & he became incontinent and needed assistance with a body sling. Finally, he just looked sad and transitioned at home with the help of Lap of Love. He is now free from his aged body. We loved him dearly and are so grateful to you and your operation that we had him in our lives for 9.5 years.' We empathize and grieve for Forrest along with Becky and George. RIP Forrest.
