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....

Lucky

Lucky was a stray from rural Missouri that was within hours of being euthanized when a Border collie lover, Aaron, stepped in and saved him. He was a gentle guy with eyes so solem and sad until he realized there was hope and love in his life from his new foster family!

Unfortunately, Lucky was diagnosed with Heartworms and had complications during treatement. He was fortunate to know love and kindness from his foster family.




Fynnegan

One year and 5 months is all I got with this wonderful Border Collie....he made me laugh and had such a wonderful sense of humor. He was the instigator of all things fun and loud. He loved to play.

He was my second "rescue" and gave this household the surprise of a lifetime by impregnating Boo (who we thought was spayed). From that union came four, gorgeous puppies..two girls and two boys...Sophie, Izzy, Jack and Edgar. All but one puppy is in a new home, with Edgar still here with me. He will be moving to Overland Park, soon, with my son, Ted. So, he goes on.

Just as it was to put his front paws around my neck and give me kisses. Everyday. My 45 pound lapdog.

I will miss him forever.

Trace

For Trace....

In the short time we knew you, you learned to trust, and to love...to visit our sides for attention, and that your food bowl would once again, have food in it. That houses were pretty good places to live in, and that computers were really cool to watch. You discovered what you were bred to do, and loved it.

Although our dance together was much to short, I treasure the memories of it. What might have been, my friend Trace.

GodSpeed.




Talon (1990 - 2003) Wynsota Wild Again UDT

She was the light of my life for 13 years. It was not long enough.

She was born on my Dad's 60th birthday. They both had an impact on so many lives...maybe they are together now. She brightened every life she touched. Her sparkle could light up a dark room and bring sunshine to a rainy day. She was the closest thing to perfection I have ever known. I would be just like her, if only I could.

Talon lost a short battle with cancer on Sun. Jan. 12th. Her passing was peaceful and in a manner that she deserved. She did not linger. They say she did not suffer. Alan and I stepped in to see to that. Our hearts are torn in half. There is a chill in the house that announces her absence. Even with the activity of our other two dogs, the stillness is deafening...

Rest in peace little Sweetie-Bug. We miss you. We love you.

Kate

~~ adopted Kate, I believe in 2008. I sent you a Rainbow Bridge posting

shortly after she died on May 17, 2019. I have not yet seen her

posting.

Kate was so many things to me during her lifetime. Kate, Her Royal

Highness, Princess Fluffy Butt, aka Woofy Girl, was my fur kid, my

companion, and my emotional support dog. Gentle, loving, loved by many.

She didn't look like a BC, but I didn't care. She had a great heart. We

shared wonderful times together. She had a tendency to be car sick when

she first came to me, but she eventually got over that and we had some

great trips together. She got to go to a dog beach in Florida, where

she was more interested in playing with the other dogs than actually going

into the water. She never really liked being in the water, although she

graciously tolerated bath time. I sometimes felt like I was with a rock

star when we walked because so many people want to touch her and greet

her. Somewhere in Japan there is a man with pictures of Kate from our

trip to the Grand Canyon. He sent his friend over to ask if he could

pet her and have his picture taken with her. She loved her cat siblings.

She loved to run, and just looked beautiful when she ran her herder

circles.

I miss her...…
