Rainbow Bridge

This page is dedicated to all the dogs of our lives. 
Those dogs that have enriched our lives and that wait for us on the Rainbow Bridge.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Wren (2005-2020)

Wren picked us on 26 Nov 2006 and came to live with us in St Louis. She had two sisters, Gwynedd (border collie mix) and Lillie (mini schnauzer). She had a great time with them when she and Gwynedd would 'herd' Lille, one from each side of the garden until Lillie had enough. Wren also liked the frisbee and tennis ball and would chase them around but brought them back very occasionally. We had ducks land in the pool until she arrived and decided go in after them, haven't had them since. However, when she was 2 to 3 years old we noticed a change in her, bumping into things. We took her to two ophthalmic vets and they said she has "collie eye". Over the next years she slowly lost her sight but her sisters stepped up and looked after her, with Gwynedd taking the roll as mother. She learned very quickly that she was to walk between them and with the light fencing around the pool still made her way out to the grass in the backyard. We did have one fright with her when she was about 6 or 7. She had an allergic reaction to one of her shots and had to spend three days in hospital but once that was over it was back to normal.

Everybody loved her and when we were out walking people would say to us but she was a beautiful dog. She was never any bother, never complaining, even at the end when she was in pain. Just a loving companion/friend/member of the family.

Wren crossed the Rainbow Bridge to be with her sisters the morning of May 19th, 2020. She will be greatly missed but always loved.

Paul and Becky and her new sister Pippi
