Temperance Crisp

Temperance Isabella Crisp (Tempy) crossed the rainbow bridge peacefully on Thursday, April 6, 2023, in the arms of her mommy and daddy.

Born October 25, 2009; Tempy was the spunky little girl of Cameron and Lanie Crisp for 11 years of her very full and loved life. She is preceded in death by her brother Seeley Crisp and her cousin/best friend, Bo Foxx. They are now all together running and playing in their new healthy bodies. She is survived by her two little brothers, Finn and Obi.

Tempy was rescued in 2012 from a shelter in Virginia. Her first two years in this world were rough and we wanted to give her a better life with us and her new brother Seeley. She was a tough little Shih-tzu that quickly became the biggest daddy’s girls. She loved her mommy but not like she did her daddy. Daddy was her #1 all day, every day. She loved to meet new people and new pups. Even though she was tiny, she could stand her ground to any pup big or small.

Tempy loved food, sleeping on cold surfaces, going for rides, meeting new people/pups, and going on family trips. She hated the snow and baths. She was our little piranha, little snot face, phantom barker, gremlin, and our little old lady. Tempy will forever be missed, always remembered and eternally in our hearts.
