“Odie”. Odie was a sweetheart and a quiet sentinel who
watched over my dad and then me, when dad could no
longer care for him. He passed at 13 from complications of
liver disease, and I miss his incredibly sweet face and loving
nature. Mary Beth Nielsen

“Schip-Dude”. Our Beloved Hero, left us on 31 January, 2022.
Rescued broken in Spring 2010 from a disastrous home life
in MO, his beautiful temperament earned him major rehab.
Whether chasing tennis balls or romping with his
companions on his three legs, he was one of the happiest
dogs of our history. He was our third longest companion
and oldest Schip. Don & Dot Ferris
From facebook: “Miquel”, missing for three weeks was found
dead, hit by a car. The grief of the family must be enormous.
Please be aware of your fur baby when you open a door.
Schips, in particular, are known for bolting as they are so very,
very, curious. For the owner of Miquel, the entire community of
those who have a dog family member, particularly those who
have a Schip, all share your grief.
SRN Bear Parker 2006-2023
In 2022, two bonded seniors: Bear-16 and Raven-18 were surrendered
to SRN and soon placed in foster care. SRN's dedication to the well-
being of Bear and Raven made it possible for these two Schipperke
seniors to remain together, happily and healthy, for as long as possible.
Schipperke Bear was always close by, never out of sight. He schipper-
vised everything and watched over his sister Schipp Raven. He had to
inspect the laundry, dishwasher, and every basket, box and bag in
reach. He was sweet, curious, playful and silly. He was truly the
‘Goodest Boy’! At 17 Bear succumbed to old age in March 2023 having
had the best year of his life.
Bear is survived by SRN Schipperke Raven. Love you Bear.
Blackpearl needed a companion after losing her Buddy Maxie , been
together since she was a pup. It was fate that I found Marco Polo,
who became BEAR, a rescue that came up from Spartanburg. It was a
3 hr drive to the Mohawk Humane Society in Menard, NY and that was
it - Blackpearl got along with Bear as he joined our family. All the
memories of their shenanigans, sweet & unconditional love with be
with me forever. Blackpearl passed at age 15 on 2/16/20. Bear
followed her across the rainbow bridge when he was 16 1/2 on
2/24/23.
