It’s with a heavy heart that I bring news about dear Daphne, little mellow yellow from my first 2015 breeding! Daughter to Maggie & Chaser, sibling to so many!! She joins her mom Maggie, siblings Rory & Tucker, and of course all my previous pets Dobi, Chelsie, Josh & Pokey, over the rainbow bridge! ♥️
From her owner Melissa and family…
Daphne Louise Wheaten M 🌻
May 21 2015 - May 1 2026
It is with heavy hearts that we announce that our beautiful Daphne girl has gone to rainbow bridge. Daphne came into our family at a time when we were just two kids figuring it out. She made us a family, and together we would see her grow with us through 4 moves, many hikes, our engagement, wedding, building our home, and bringing her sisters into the world.
Daphne was a dog of many quirks. It weighed heavy on us as we got to know her, but as we learned about each other, it was clear that this dog’s heart was so loyal and her intentions were to keep all of us safe. Daphne made us laugh every day. If you’ve ever entered our home, you understand the sheer force of her Wheaten Greetin’, even in her final days. The grace that this dog showed when she became a big sister to Amira and then Flora surprised us all. It allowed us to be a family together, even if that was only for a short while.
Daphne will be remembered by all of those who love her. She is joining many loved ones at the rainbow bridge, who we know are ready to show her all of the good swimming spots, cat food dishes, beaches and front doors.
Daphne leaves behind her Dad and Mom, sisters Amira and Flora, kitty sister Zola, her 4 grandparents Grandma, Pappa, Grandpa and Nana, aunties Gill, Brittannie and Rhea and uncles Rob, Shaun, Jono, and Robert, plus many countless others that love her from near and far.
We’ll love you forever sweet Daphne girl. ❤️
Please hugs your puppers close. Get their yearly vaccinations, protect them against ticks, fleas, heartworm, etc. feed good quality dog foods appropriate for the Wheatens’ special needs! Get regular bloodwork … our puppers health requires due diligence just like us humans! 🙂
