Our Heroes

"I refuse to allow a disability to determine how I live my life."

At 4 Paws, Christopher was a hero. He brought disability to light in a manner no one has ever done before,
and the strides he made to bridge the gap between disabled and typical will never be forgotten.

Connor is free and full of bliss,
given back to God with Mommy and Daddy's everlasting kiss.
This sweet little boy, a gift from above,
he showed this world a special kind of love.
Nothing more to anchor him and prevent his play,
all is good in Heaven each and everyday.
A breath of fresh air, no longer a fight.
A football tucked under his arm,
he'll play on his field of dreams every night.
Angels cheer on Team Connor to win,
his face aglow and beaming with a grin.
Touchdown!
He's done it again!
The angels cheer and one calls out, "Go Connor!"
As we stay here on earth and root him on in prayer and special honor.
He will also find the Rainbow Bridge in Heaven's place.
A special furry friend has been waiting there for him and will run to him in the fastest pace.
He'll jump on Connor with so much joy,
he's waited just so long for his special boy.
And now the time is here, his boy is by his side!
No more lonesome nights for the boy he cried.
They'll romp and they'll run, they're already best of friends with nothing to do but have lots of fun.
Connor's face is wet from doggy kisses galore,
he'll giggles and say, "You're tickling me, stop, no more!"
Together they'll be without worries or a care, laughing and snuggling, a wonderful pair.
All is good in Heaven, Connor will tell you so.
Nothing to hold him back from the places he will go.
Roam free, little Connor, eternal bliss is yours.
Just remember that lasting kiss though from those who loved you most here on earth and opened so many doors.

Josh Miller, DVM

For the past three years Dr. Josh Miller and his wonderful staff have provided awesome veterinary care to the service dogs attending school here at 4 paws. Dr. Miller, who has a daughter on the Autism Spectrum, has given his time and resources to the 4 Paws dogs at a reduced rate allowing us to meet the needs of our clients with as little cost as possible!

Dr. Josh has seen some of our puppies through some tough times and we are happy to say we have never lost a dog no matter how bad they were upon arrival from the various shelters. Dr. Josh and his staff have been the guardian angels the 4 Paws dogs needed and we give an awesome Tail Wag for all they do! Thanks Dr. Josh, Dr. Steve and all the Covenant Animal Clinic staff!

If you live in the Waynesville, Ohio area and have pets you love as much as we love our dogs here at 4 Paws, you will want to make sure you take them to Dr. Josh for their veterinary care and tell them 4 Paws sent you!
