Bandit

     Bandit was given to us on Christmas Eve 1995 from our loving family.  We welcomed her in with open arms and she became a part of our family. She was a loving companion to all of us. Bandit was "one of a kind." There are not enough words to say to explain how much joy she brough to all of our lives.

    Bandit was a nurturing friend who would just look up at you with her big brown eyes and she would say, "I Love You" and give you a big kiss!

     She loved being with our family, watching tv, playing catch, and yes sleeping on mommy and daddy's bed! She especially loved her best friend Trucker who will miss her dearly. Bandit also enjoyed going for walks! She was the best at this because she would make friends with everyone. There is not one dog on our block that was not her friend. Her great personality has taught all of us many lessons throughout our times with her.

   We will never forget the great times with her doing Go! Go! all over the house, all the times Karen and Uncle Frank would sneak her bones when she should have carrots, car rides with dad, and especially the fun times giving her baths and just chillin on the front lawn!

     She will be missed by all of us! We are thankful for her life and all she gave to us while she was here! She lived a great 12 years and was a special spirit that was the gift of a lifetime! Girl, God only takes the best, so you are up there for a reason! Have fun, we will miss you, and we will meet you and Dutchess at Rainbow Bridge! xoxoxoWE LOVE YOU!

God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not meant to be
So he put his arms around you and whispered,
"Come with me"
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
and saw you fading away.
Although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped breathing,
running paws were laid to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us

HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST
Please check out Bandit's gallery of pictures, send her a tribute or a candle! Thanks

Hi Bandit,

Everyone is going to miss you so much! I'm sure you're having tons of fun running around with all the other dogs. I am so glad you are no longer in pain. I'll miss hearing you bark when I come to the house. You always were a good girl and you will be missed dearly.

Bandit was a beautiful dog. I work with M elanie and I have 2 dogs of my own. I can only imagine how sad you feel right now. My heart goes out to you. I pray that you find the strength through the memories that you have of her. Bandit is no longer in any pain and I'm sure she knows how much she was loved.

HI Band, It just want to say hello babe. I need you to know that we have decided on a new puppy and we are getting her on Sunday. Please do not be mad, no one can take your place. It brings me to tears to tell you this but I just wanted you to know. You were the best dog a young girl growing up could ever have. You taught me so many lessons in life throughout all the years. It is time for us to bring a new pup home and give her the love that we still share with you. I hope you understand. I know you will be looking down on us and smiling to see us go through the puppy phase again. I love you always!TTYL- xoxo Love, Jen

I came across this site after a very sad day, the day on which our darling girl Roxy passed away. Roxy was 12 years old & very tired. The Vet told my Son she had cancer & it was time to let her go. She looked at my Son, wagged her little tail & fell asleep. When I saw Bandit's picture, her face reminded me of Roxy so much - her eyes just speak to you. I hope both Roxy & Bandit are together, playing in the sunlight of God's garden. x
