❤️ In Memory of Callie ❤️
January 4, 2012 – May 31, 2026
Fourteen years ago, just before my 25th birthday, my brother showed up with a little furball full of energy, curiosity, and love. He looked at me and said, “Happy Birthday, Sis,” and asked if I wanted to give her a loving home.
Dale and I didn’t hesitate.
And the rest is history. ❤️
Callie was my first baby, my shadow, my best friend, and my constant companion through some of life’s biggest moments. She was there through every chapter—the highs, the lows, the successes, the heartbreaks, and everything in between.
So many people knew Callie because she loved people. If you ever walked through the doors of VP Fitness, chances are you were greeted by her wagging tail, hopeful eyes, and gentle spirit. She truly believed every person who walked through those doors was there to see her.
Over fourteen years, she taught me so much. She taught me what unconditional love looks like. She taught me patience, loyalty, and how to appreciate the simple things in life.
The hardest part of loving a dog is knowing that one day you’ll have to say goodbye. No matter how much you know that day is coming, you’re never truly ready for it. One day you put them to bed like you’ve done thousands of times before, and the next day you’re faced with saying goodbye. 💔
My heart is broken, but I am so incredibly grateful for every walk, every cuddle, every greeting at the door, every adventure, and every moment we shared.
You were deeply loved, sweet girl. You will be forever missed.💞
And no matter where life takes me, a piece of my heart will always belong to you.
Run free, baby girl. 🌈🐾❤️
