  • It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden passing of Paxton the Prairie Dog due to long term health issues. Paxton's journey with us began just before Christmas 2023, when he was rescued from a situation of neglect. His previous owner had surrendered him after a simple infection was left untreated, leading to the loss of his arm. Despite his rough start, Paxton showed incredible strength and resilience.
    Pax required round-the-clock care initially, but he quickly became strong and developed the sweetest personality. One of our favorite memories of him is how he would always gallop over to us, no matter what he was doing, to request cheeky rubs. He would instantly melt into our hands with contentment, his little nose twitching adorably, always seeming to have a toothy smile on his face.
    Paxton quickly became an integral part of our family, alongside Poppy and Penelope, forming the trio we fondly called the Three P’s. Pax also known as “Snaxton” loved his snacks and had a keen sense of adventure, always eager to explore his surroundings.
    In the short five months we had with him, we showered him with all our love, and he reciprocated with all his heart.
    Paxton’s presence brought immense joy and love into everyone’s lives. Though his time with us was brief, the impact he made was profound. Our hearts ache with his loss, but we cherish the memories of his playful spirit and affectionate nature.

      They only had him for 5 months... I wonder what the “long term health issues” were, because all they said the description was that he lost an arm and had been neglected before.

    I’m a teacher who had a new job this year. I didn’t know anyone yet and was stressed out enough that I ate lunch in my classroom just to chill out. Some days Poppy and Paxton were all I looked at as I tried to brace myself for the PM.
    It got better and so did I.
    So Paxton, wahoo in peace, and eat all the sweet potato you want.

    😢 I wear a small steel dog bone pendant that contains a few ashes of my beloved dog around my neck 24/7. Please know I understand your loss. But know the heart light you carry for Paxton and the warmth of your shared memories will see you through. Thank you for sharing Paxton with us - he was a joy to watch. How relatable he was to so many of us - wounded but healing and bravely carrying on. What a sweet boy. I won't forget him either. Hugs to you all, hold each other close and know for the time he was with you he was one of the happiest and most loved prairie dogs on earth. I'm certain Poppy will miss him, too. ((❤))

    I was randomly scrolling & stopped seeing the name Paxton. And then I get to know he crossed the rainbow bridge. I started crying instantly. I loved him since I saw him for the first time. The three legged hoppy little pup. So hard he used to try & never give up. The way he used to wohoo, even when the call was for Poppy. The way he slowly cautiously climbed down from the cage, taking cozy cheek rubs, snuggled in the hand. I will miss seeing him. I can't believe he's gone. You gave him some wonderful days before he made the eternal journey. We don’t have prairie dogs in my country. But I love them. They're so awesome. So I always watched your videos. Started with Poppy & then Paxton joined in. I hope with time you'll cope up with this irreplaceable loss of our beloved Pax.

Also couldn’t get over the fact how adorable and affectionate these prairie dogs are. Paxton’s story touched my heart. I am crying.

He was a replica of my guinea pig who I lost young and suddenly, and I was able to relive the love and time I spent with him through Paxton. I would watch him and Poppy multiple times a day, every single day. I've never cried like this or have felt sad like this over the loss of someone else's baby. I feel so devastated and I cannot imagine what they are going through.

I came to your channel to smile and then I saw this sad news and broke down crying. Paxton was a lucky little fella that he was adopted by you and your wife and the last 6 months he went through SO much and was SO incredibly strong willed and determined. Paxton lived his BEST life with you guys and he knew LOVE on all the levels. My heart breaks for all of you!!! I hope Poppy & Penelope are OK. Animals absolutely grieve the loss of other animals.

I'm in the hospital right now but going home tomorrow and my daughter informed me tonight that he's been sleeping in my wheelchair 24/7 and will not budge. It's amazing what they do for us. I miss that old lug and can't wait to get back home to him. For those who are willing to share the personal stories of living with these beautiful creatures online to the rest of the world does social service. Spreading love is such a special gift!
