As sad and heartbreaking as it is, our
four-legged friends are never with us long enough and they
depart this world for the rainbow bridge - always before we are
ready to let them go. This page is dedicated to those that I
have loved and lost since 2005. Not all were show dogs, but all
were stars to me and were loved beyond description. I will miss
them always.
The
Legend of Rainbow Bridge From the book, “The
Legend of Rainbow Bridge” by William N. Britton
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When a pet dies who has been especially close to a person here on
earth,
that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are beautiful meadows and grassy hills there
for all our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is always plenty of their favorite food to eat,
plenty of fresh spring water for them to drink,
and every day is filled with sunshine so our little friends are warm
and comfortable.
All the pets that had been ill or old are now restored to health and
youth.
Those that had been hurt or maimed are now whole and strong again,
just as we remember them in our dreams of days gone by.
The pets we loved are happy and content except for one small thing.
Each one misses someone very special who was left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes
when one of them suddenly stops and looks off into the distant
hills.
It is as if they heard a whistle or were given a signal of some
kind.
Their eyes are bright and intent. Their body begins to quiver.
All at once they break away from the group, flying like a deer over
the grass,
their little legs carrying them faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally
meet,
you hug and cling to them in joyous reunion, never to be parted
again.
Happy kisses rain upon your face.
Your hands once again caress the beloved head.
You look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet so long gone
from your life,
but never gone from your heart.
Then with your beloved pet by your side, you will cross the Rainbow
Bridge together.
Your Sacred Circle is now complete again.
