These are a few testimonials from past months that really touched our hearts.  We couldn't bear to remove them from our site, so they'll be remembered forever in our "Hall of Fame".

I cannot express what a big impression and heart felt reward when I sent my two friends that experience the loss of the dog(s) recently. They are absolutly greatful and told me that the cards were beautiful as well as knowing that a tree is planted in their dogs name will be always memorable. It's a rare commodity these days to find someone with the service of giving. Thank you.

Brutus's marker arrived today and it is already placed on his little grave. It is so comforting to us to know that years from now, this marker will let people know that he lived and was so loved by our entire family. He is buried next to our Brandi and his little marker is just like her's. Thank you for providing us some comfort when our "Babies" have to leave us.

I want to share with you some photos of Schnitzel's garden stone placed in our backyard. My husband Terry landscaped a small corner of our yard with three sago palm trees surrounding the stone. It is small, tasteful memorial to a very special little dog. I'm also attaching a favorite photo of Schnitzel, a 10-pound miniature dachshund who was like a baby to me.

When Schnitzel died 8 weeks after a diagnosis of kidney and lung cancer, it greatly helped our family through the grieving process when we created a memorial for her. Thank you for providing us with this opportunity.

We will recommend 4 Paws Forever to anyone we know who loses a precious pet.

Sincerely,

If anyone is looking for that purrfect piece of jewelry to keep your pets memory close to your heart. Look no further. I had searched many sites for the perfect necklace for my daughter. I found it here at 4 paws forever. I bought the star with the paw print on it to put our beloved cat, Griffey, ashes in it. My 8 year old has had a hard time with his passing so I thought this might help. When we received the necklace I was just so amazed at the quality and its beauty. It shines so brightly and the chain is really nice and seems very durable. The pictures on the website don't capture how beautiful this jewelry is. We received the necklace in only 2 days and the customer service is exceptional. I wish all businesses had customer service like Karen offers. It would be a much better world if you ask me! If anyone is hesitating on whether to buy from here don't hesitate at all. You won't be sorry one bit.

We received the stone yesterday and it looks great. It was a lot heavier than I thought, which to me meant it was of better quality than some others we've seen. We are very pleased with it, and couldn't wait to finally put something marking Buddy's grave. Like I stated before we have looked around and some were made of resin which wouldn't last long in our seasons. We were thrilled when I came across your sight, and we have recommended you to my husbands parents. They recently lost their dog Corey of 18 years. I'm sure as with many of your customers you can see that our dog Buddy meant a lot to us, I don't know if you've come across any Shelty/Yellow Lab mixes but they are very unique and beautiful. Buddy lived what we think as a short but happy life, he acted like a puppy until the very end, tail wagging with excitement always. When he was diagnosed with bone cancer we thought he wouldn't make it much longer, but he shocked us all and made it almost a year as if nothing was wrong, other than an occasional limp. So we want to thank you very much for what you do, and for giving us something of great quality that will last a very long time!

Thank you,

I wanted to send you a note of gratitude. I cannot thank you enough for your help with choosing a gift for my sister-in-law. She absolutely loves the wind chimes and is very touched by the sentiment associated with it. It really was the perfect gift and I am grateful that you have set up such a comforting and beautiful website. I will recommend your business to anyone who may be in need of such a personal and touching gift and I will visit you again myself.

Thank you so much for making a difficult time into one that is touched with beautiful reminders.

Kindest regards

The marker arrived and I already placed it. It is so beautiful and I feel so much better now that her little grave is marked. Thank you for being there. Your service was exceptional and I still can't believe that she died last Saturday and the marker is already in place, telling the world that she existed, was loved very much and she will be forever missed by this entire family.

November 2007 - Shonen

We received the charm yesterday.  It arrived to some very heavy hearted people.  My wife and I have no children and Shonen (our 110lb Akita) had been with us for 11 years - most of our marriage.  We were pretty anal about our boy.  If we would go on vacation, we would fly my mom in to stay with him.  For the past year, with some ailing joints, we did many things for him (acupuncture and chiropractor on alternating weeks, many medications, ramps, carrying up and down stairs, etc.).  It was so difficult to put him down, as he still had all other functions - just his legs were failing - and we always promised him to never let him live in any kind of extreme pain. Your package was perfect.  The presentation was very special.  We cried again last night - as we do almost every night.  A cute part about the charm is that it is a little thicker and bigger than expected - which is just how our boy was - a little bigger than expected. You have contributed greatly to helping heal our hearts. I am attaching the letter we sent to family and friends and a few pictures of Shonen as well, as we now consider you a cherished friend. Thank you. Sincerely, John, Brooke, and Shonen D.

November 2007 - Mokie

We received Mokie's Garden Stone and all we can say is "WOW!" We both just cried as the kitty on the stone looked just like her. THANK YOU for the fabulous service and most of all for caring. I have your website bookmarked and will HIGHLY recommend 4pawsforever to friends. I've attached two pictures. I wanted you to see Mokie and I wanted you to see the stone on her grave. Sorry about the sunlight covering part of it, I did lighten it up somewhat. We would only let her out when we were at home, but when it was time to come in she would hide (at least she thought she was) under a utility building in the back. We buried her next to it as she liked to get under there and watch everything. Anyway, that is the reason for the shadow. Thank you again for everything. May you be blessed in helping God's animals.
