I am so sorry!!

Just this side of Heaven is a place called the Rainbow Bridge where animals go when they die. At the Bridge there are sunny meadows and shady dells where they can run and play together. There is plenty to eat and lots of soft places to take long naps.

Animals who were ill or old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are whole and strong again. Beloved pets are just as they are remembered in dreams and the feral are given the lives they should have had.

The animals are content, but many of them miss someone very special, someone who was left behind when they crossed the Bridge.

Then, one day, an animal stops in play and looks into the distance. A familiar figure has taken the first step in crossing the Bridge and must be met!

There is a pause in their journey to savor the joys of reunion, and then they cross the Rainbow Bridge together . . .

A Loan From God

God promised at the birth of time,
A special friend to give,
His time on earth is short, he said,
So love him while he lives.

It may be for eight or ten years,
Or only two or three,
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care of him for me?

A wagging tail and cold wet nose,
And silken velvet ears,
A heart as big as all outdoors,
To love you through the years.

His puppy ways will gladden you,
And antics bring a smile,
As guardian or friend he will,
Be loyal all the while.

He'll bring his charms to grace your life,
And though his stay be brief,
When he's gone the memories,
Are solace for your grief.

I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return,
But lessons only a dog can teach,
I want you each to learn.

I've looked the whole world over,
In search of guardians true,
And from the folk that crowd life's land,
I have chosen you.

Whatever love you give to him,
Returns in triple measure,
Follow his lead and gain a life,
Brim full of simple pleasures.

Enjoy each day as it comes,
Allow your heart to guide,
Be loyal and steadfast in love,
As the dog there by your side.

Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labor vain,
Nor hate me when I come to call,
To take him back again?

I fancy each of us would say,
Dear Lord, thy will be done,
For all the joys this dog shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.

We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've know,
Forever grateful stay.

But should the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
And try to understand.

If by our love we've managed,
God's wishes to achieve,
In memory of him that we have loved,
And to help us while we grieve;

When our faithful bundle departs,
This earthly world of strife,
We'll get yet another pup,
And love him all his life.

Thanks everyone Chat Icon


He really was a special guy ... he was 9 years old and malnourished when we adopted him. Little Shelter had varying stories about him ... none of them so great. Our original intention was to get him blessed at the LS Adopt a thon this Sunday before letting him go.

Recently during his illness, we had xrays done and they found five bb's in him Chat Icon so who knows what some scum did to him.

He lived to eat and eat we let him! Chat Icon

We had five great years that I will cherish forever Chat Icon
