| As a service to the K9 Search and Rescue community and to all dog owners alike, Alpha Team has dedicated this space to the honor of our fallen friends. Because of what we do as search and rescue canine owners, trainers, and handlers we feel for anyone who has lost a family pet and especially a working dog. There is no way to properly honor a canine friend that is no longer with us, except to say the we miss them dearly, we think of them often, and we will see them at the gates of heaven soon enough.
Certified Search and Rescue K9 "Logan" Rest in Peace May 7, 2003 - May 19, 2005
Search and Rescue K9 in training, "Kira Rainier Samples". Owners Eric and Rachael Hall, Stuart and Tara Samples. Kira, a sable coated German Shepherd was proudly owned and trained by two sets of parents, and during her time with us, she displayed great skill as a young search dog and was a loyal and loving family companion. Kira will be dearly missed by everyone who met her, and especially those that searched with her. May God rest her soul, and keep her ever-moving paws searching the horizon for lost people. I love you my friend, and I will miss you always -Stuart.
A donation to Alpha Team was made in honor of "Beau Sanders", a faithful black Labrador and companion to Brad and Tammy Sanders. Beau lived 14 wonderful years of the good life with Brad and Tammy and served as a family pet, hunting companion and faithful friend. Our hearts go out to the Sanders family, and we wish them comfort during this difficult time. Long live the memory of big Beau, the loving black Labrador Retriever from Powder Springs, Georgia.
A donation to Alpha Team was made in honor of "Pookie Hatcher". Pookie came to us in December of 1992. Someone had put her out at our youth minister's house and he called and asked us if we would like a dog. They were expecting their first child in January and felt like they couldn't take on a dog. We were going to stand firm and not have any pets, but once we went to see her on Sunday afternoon, our hearts melted. She was a ball of fur and had the sweetest face--just like a Pookie Bear! Needless to say, she came to live with us on Monday. The almost thirteen years we had Pookie with us went by so fast--As true with most pets, she had unconditional love for our whole family and gave us much more than I think we gave her in return. We all miss her but we know she is having a ball in heaven and will be waiting for us--wagging her tail when she sees us.... Nanci & Dan Hatcher
Valcar’s Talisman – Taz Samples
January 24, 1994 – July 11, 2008. Owners – The Samples Family He came to us at eight weeks – a bundle of energy and yellow fur. He stayed fourteen and a half years and shared all the good times and bad that our family experienced in all those years. He saw his boys graduate from college, marry the loves of their lives and adored the four beautiful babies they brought home to visit between them. He was truly the last child left at home for Mom and Dad and we loved him with all our hearts. We were all blessed to have him in our lives. Thanks for the memories Tazer – you were the best!
