Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your furbaby. Your pooch is surely in a better place now and she will waiting patiently for you to come home, as well. Many hugs to you. Jen 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.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Hi Sierra I am really sorry for your doggy lose. This is a hard e-mail to address because I may be facing the same scenario soon. My little dachshund is sixteen years old. She pretty much sleeps all day and is partially blind but does not appear to be in any pain or have discomfort. At night she sleeps in-between us and the first thing I do every morning is to make sure she is still alive. She's so funny because she insists on being held most of the day if I'm home. We call her the energizer doggy because she just keeps going and going, but I know reality will hit one day. Take Care Babs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
