Zorro

Thank you to everyone at Gentle Goodbyes for your extraordinary and compassionate care. Zorro the Husky lived life with unstoppable spirit and endless charm. He had a deep love for the simple joys — chickens, treats, and the soulful sound of a harmonica. His mischievous streak made him an avid escape artist and fearless explorer, crossing many busy streets on his adventures — unscathed and proud.

Zorro had a voice all his own — chatty, expressive, and impossible to ignore when he wanted something (especially snacks). His thick, beautiful coat made him the fluffiest of them all, and his loyal heart made him the truest of friends.

He filled every day with laughter, love, and a touch of chaos, reminding everyone who knew him that life is meant to be lived boldly and loved deeply.

Run free, our best boy Zorro. And may there always be chickens to chase, treats to savor, and harmonicas to sing along to. You will be forever missed and forever loved.

Jake

Jake, from the second I saw you, I knew you were my dog, and I was your human. You lived a full life full of fun, love, and adventures. You had the biggest personality. From the way you would screech and howl to greet everyone you met, your many tricks, and goofy antics. I am amazed at your patience that you had with Toki, and what good your presence did to help influence him. You were loved by everyone that had the pleasure of meeting you and will be missed dearly. I know you're chasing cows to your hearts content up in the sky watching over us. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey.

Luna

Luna was rescued on a cold rainy day in Eagle. She was less than a pound and shivering. She was a very affectionate and talkative cat who loved to play. We will miss her very much.

Luna (aka Luna Loo, Looney Boons)
June 2012 - October 2025.

It doesn't feel like enough time for all the love, laughter, and comfort she brought into our lives. From the moment she trotted into our world, Luna made it brighter. She was there for every chapter- our constant, loyal, four- legged shadow who never cared if the day was good or bad, as long as we were together. She taught us what unconditional love truly means. Saying goodbye hurts more than we can put into words, but we are grateful for every year, every tail wag, and every memory. She will always be part of our family, and her pawprints will stay on our hearts forever.
Rest easy, our sweet friend. You were - and always will be - so loved.

Jack Jenkins

Thank you for helping us with Jack our family member and his gentle passing. Jack was 17 years old and the best dog ever. He was a huge emotional support over the 17 years for us during times of crisis. And although he couldn’t speak he always knew how to be a comfort. He at other times knew how to give sas when asked to do something he didn’t want to do which always lightened the mood. He was a bright shinning light to the rest of our pack. He will be deeply missed.

Sumi Vasquez

Thank you for taking care of our beautiful little girl, Sumi.

Sumi was a queen. Everywhere we went, she went in as she owned it. She would stare down larger dogs and back them up just with her look. No growling or barking, they just sensed that she was larger than life. A sweet girl that would allow you to pet her, but on her terms. Very playful and a joy to be around. At 10 weeks old, she started to dominate my two larger dogs, 95 lb German Shepherd and 65 lb Australian Shepherd mix. She is greatly missed.

October 22, 2010 - October 29, 2025

Our sweet boy Saint was a wonderful member of our family for 15 years. He was fun loving, quirky and loved to be with his people! You are now able to run free, swim and chase squirrels again! Thank you for being such a special part of our family. We love you and will miss you!

Shady Baby

Shade had a rough start with several failed adoptions, and several returns from foster placements. When I adopted her she was 2 years old, 4 lbs. She was diagnosed with IBS, and started on prescription food. She became a loving sweet companion. She was the most vocal cat, she loved to have a back and forth conversation. She lived a long pampered life.

Reo

Reo was an 11 year old Dutch Shepherd. He was born in Slovakia and served as a police dog with the San Diego Police Department from 2016 to 2022. He moved to Boise with our family in 2022. Reo took to retired life and quickly became great family dog. He loved playing in the snow, tug o war, going on walks, and spending time with our family. He went from patrolling the streets to sleeping in our bed. He loved our family and we loved him.

Dexter Rhodes

Dexter was a sweet, gentle, and loving boy. He loved going to the park to roam around. He enjoyed car rides. He went out of his way to avoid water but loved the snow. He was never interested in meeting other animals, but he loved meeting people. He loved belly rubs and ears scratches. He was loved dearly and will be forever missed.

Rocky

Rocky (aka Rocky Pico Train, Rocco, or Taco) was an intelligent and loving member of our family. We would often talk about how he was truly a little human trapped in a dog’s body. His loving, goofy, and spirited personality was infectious and palpable. He will be missed beyond words. We are so grateful that we were blessed with his spunky spirit. He filled our days with laughter and light. It was a privilege to love him. The void we now feel is only a reminder of the sweet bond we got to experience and share with our one-of-a-kind Rocky boy. What a blessing it was to know him. ❤️

Luna

In loving memory of our sweet orange tabby Luna. We adopted her in 2012 from the humane society, and the joy she has given us for 13 years is immeasurable. She blessed us with her meows, her purring, her love of sitting on "papers!" (she would come any time there was a pile of papers so she could walk and/or roll around on any papers), loved her toys, her treats, jumping into boxes...our lives were so blessed and enriched with her being in it. Our house feels so empty without her, and we will miss her forever.
