When I got Linni through Arlene, I not only purchased the best dog we ever owned but, I gained a very dear friend in Arlene. I will surely miss our brunches and lunches and the time we shared together.
Janet,
When I emailed Arlene and she didn’t respond, I feared that she had died.
I was Arlene’s pet sitter for several years and had the pleasure of caring for 9 of them… all at one time! Peri and Watson were part of that group. In fact, I watched a shy pup of yours one year when you all went to dinner one year for Thanksgiving, I think.
She and I became friends and kept in touch. I am very sad that she died but happy that our paths crossed.
Rest well Arlene. Mikayla and I will miss you. Thank you for my precious girl. Know that she will be loved and cared for as a precious child.
We were blessed to have the opportunity to get our Cairn Zoey from Arlene six years ago. We so enjoyed talking with her about her dogs and keeping her updated about Zoey. She loved golf and that was something we had in common. She will be missed.
Please give Arlene’s family and friends my deepest condolences. I only met her once, but we bonded and kept in touch. I am truly saddened by her passing. I am eternally grateful for letting me adopt Paige’s sister. If Paige needs a home or if there is anything I can do, please let me know. Hugs! Jeannie
Arlene also was a very knowledgeable bird lower. One time when she was visiting us she and I took an early morning walk in the woods, and she identified 32 different birds by the sound of their calls. Impressive!
Peach had an infectious laugh. Her love and devotion to Ray and then her k9 troop was inspiring. I will miss knowing that I might stop by and catch up.
