His little peek-a-boo game is the cutest thing EVER!!! So cute…
This little guy has the best personality. What a sweetie he is.
Was Willy adopted? I don’t see him on the adoptee list anymore or the success stories.
I sent an email to Joanne P asking if anything had happen to Willy. They are so tiny but yet they think they are 10 feet tall and bullet proof….. I have to watch my two girls when I go for walks for this exact reason - I wouldn’t walk them if I didn’t have their leash on that’s for sure.
Hi Camy’s mom. I doubt very much that anyone at Animatch took this little guy for a walk without a leash. As we have both been there when we adopted our furbabies, it’s pretty much escape proof. Maybe someone deleted him from the adoption page by mistake. Let’s hope that’s it is.
Helen and all the Volunteers at the Centre are extremely sad to announce that Willy died on Saturday after a terrible accident. He did not escape or get lost, it happened right at the centre. It was devastating for the people involved and for all of us who Volunteer at the Centre. We all loved Willy and will miss his cute little face.
It is a horrible feeling to lose one of our adoptees but there are just too many more dogs who need us to dwell on the loss of Willy. I think the best way to honor Willy’s memory is to continue our work of helping dogs in need. We think that is what Willy would have wanted.
RIP, Willy.
Oh no no no!!! I am so terribly sorry…... Words escape me.
Rest in Peace, little Willy…..
I have tears in my eyes reading about Willy. Having never met this little cutie, I can just imagine how every one felt at the Centre. My condolences and yes please do continue your good work. RIP, Willy
Ginette: I didn’t suggest that the volunteers walked Willy without a leash…. I said I wouldn’t because this little breed just don’t know the danger of larger animals…. they think they are 10 feet tall and bullet proof. Me, thinks this is what happened to Willy… there are so many different breeds, unknown caracters etc.. that Willy didn’t back down in time. So so sorry…....
ThIs is so sad. RIp little Willie. :(
Our family is greatly disturbed at this lost… we had second doubts about Willy .... timing for one ... distance for second..and cost in third. There are so many what ifs… we cannot dwell on the what ifs because it will not bring Willy back but hopefully we will not let his memory fade…. we have just donated to our local SPCA in his memory - we are contacting a friend from the USA. There is a site that you can go to and donate in order to purchase a star in the name of a departed furbaby. Our family is confident that whatever happened to Willy will not happen again to a small breed furbaby. We must not let his death be in vain but a building block for future tiny furbabies who will pass thru Animatch’s door while waiting their forever home. Willy will be waiting at Rainbow Bridge - hopefully Lady Q was there to greet him as she was quite the little door greeter….. until we meet play and be happy Q and Willy
Hi Camy’s Mom. A donation to the SPCA - what a lovely way to honour Willy’s memory. If I may make one suggestion however - rather than spending money on naming a star after a dog (which is really just a marketing gimmick) maybe it would be better spent donating to Animatch the organization who is also working so hard to save/help animals in similar situations as Willy. Just a thought…
A donation to the SPCA is never lost. It is used for the care of dogs. And the star would just be a way to remember, and this does not exist on the Animatch site. I would have paid a star for remembering Tara on this site.
All rescues/shelters are in need of assistance. Helping a dog or dogs in New Brunswick is a very good way to honor Willy. Dogs really have no borders. Thank you for your generosity.
So so sorry to hear about Willy. Even thought we don’t what happened, this must be very hard for the people at the centre when it happened - they dedicate their time, love and care for all the doggies at the center. .... I will miss his cute tittle face and button nose! RIP Willy.
Poor, sweet, Willy! I hope that you did not suffer! How horrible for any witnesses. I am very sorry that this happened. I thank Animatch for their honesty, and I extend my sympathy to all. Rest in Peace, precious, tiny, Willy! You touched a lot of people. xxoo
I took Willy to the last M&G at Sear’s & he was such a sweetheart!!!! I will miss him dearly. RIP Willy We love you
O.M.G that is sooooo sad I love little little Willie and I wish he could still be here with us today.
Rest In Peace little Willie
Willy has his own star in the pet cemetary - it is resting next to a former rescued dog. I hope he had the opportunity of meeting Maddie & Lady Q . No little one should leave for rainbow bridge without a trace….. now Willy will be noticed by those animal lovers who visits their departed pets.
Thank you so much for honoring Willy; that is such a nice gesture. I’m sure that it would bring be a wag to little Willy’s tail.
Hi Willy : I visit you often but don’t leave a message, you were a twin to our Camy but timing wasn’t rite for us. I am going to visit your Star over the long weekend - check on Maddie’s little stone at same time. Camy has renal defiency and I am very afraid to lose her; some days are not good for her then the next, she plays with Kody ( yep another furbaby from Animatch) like she was 100 %. Say hi to Q for me - I have her ashes by my side but I miss her terribly just the same. Kisses & hugs to all who are waiting for their people…. until we meet….... love….
When you’re in the corner and have got no cash to get out from that, you will need to take the home loans. Just because it would aid you definitely. I get short term loan every time I need and feel myself good just because of this.
What the HELL are you doing on Willy’s page with your comments ???? This little furbaby is deceased please honor his memory and leave your comments elsewhere.
