Gage Thibodeau

Gage Thibodeau was a big Dog with a big heart who loved his family. He had lots of fur sisters and brothers, he loved Reeces, Sammy, and Glinda to name just a few. He loved Raymond and they grew up along side each other, Raymond was 3 when Gage came to us so they were both pups together, even though Ray is a boy. Gage came to us with so much energy that the first thing he decided to do was jump over our six foot fence and that resulted in a torn acl. This one mistake cost Gage a lifetime of arthritic trouble but he didn't let it slow him down to much. The pic below was him at water therapy which he was not a fan, this was weird because Gage loved splashing through the puddles made from newly fallen rain and we did that regularly. Gage was a feisty guy, if you were a cat you were sized up as a tasty lunch option so we had to watch out for cats on walks and such. Gage was great at the cat sneak attack. He also believed strongly that HE owned the entire three block radius, if you walked yourself or your dog near us Gage went into protective mode, letting you know you need to get off his road quick like.. Gage shared a January 5th birthday with his rescuer Mary and every year they would celebrate by eating hamburgers from tasty-freez or getting pizza from lil ceasers and sharing with the crew. Gage loved car rides often refusing to get out of the car for hours after a ride and he was big enough to refuse if he wanted to. As big as Gage was his biggest fear was thunderstorms and he would come unraveled at even a distant rumble, he would chew a door knob off to get to his family or hide in the smallest place to feel safe. Gage will be missed beyond what words can say, his place in my heart has been secured forever. WE LOVE YOU GAGE.
