Rainbow Bridge

 

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 . . .

Luke Skywalker
There are so many people that loved and cared for Luke there is no way to begin to write what he meant to everyone. I know his fosters Mavis and Jim loved him so very much. They took such gentle care of him - he truly knew he was loved. Pat and I were blessed to foster him for a while as well. He had such a big heart. I remember the first day we picked him up to come into DDR. He was named Luke Skywalker and the double dapple that came with him was Princess Leah. He truly lived up to his name. He was a hero to all of us and very much loved.


Tina
Tina you were the light of our lives for the past two years and five months. You made us smile every day we got to spend with you. You were a treasure and our lives will never be the same. You stole our hearts! Tina and Taylor miss you dearly and keep asking when you are coming back :( There will never be another like you! This morning I went to feed you and then thought I heard you whining for me before I realized you are no longer with us. We miss you sweet girl, you will always be with us in our hearts. I miss how you followed me everywhere and you loved chasing rabbits, you were fast. Loved how you would jump at my legs because you wanted on the couch to eat popcorn :)


Gus
Boss came to DDR as a breeder boy. He was always a very sweet loving guy that loved everyone. He found his forever home at one point but came back to DDR when his owner couldn't care for him medically anymore. Gus was a very grateful, very loving sweet senior dachshund. Gus lived life to the fullest everyday he lived, he was given 14 years 11 months and he loved everyone that cared for him. Rest in Peace little guy, we were so happy to have you pass our way.


Duke II
Duke II came to DDR with his sweetheart Duchess. Duke found his special forever foster home with Mel, he was loved and well understood...he could e a cranky old guy sometimes :) Duke loved life! Camping, hanging out in the yard or in front of the fireplace.....Mel and Darla took great care of him! Duke was 15 1/2 yrs old. He passed away from cancer


Pepper
My name is Pepper. After being allowed to be a foster dog with Ben and Char in early 2011, I found a Forever Home with them. I was 9 years old and a "senior" pup! They allowed me to join their "pack" and I lived with them just over four year until this past weekend when I passed away and crossed the Bridge on Sunday. We had lots of fun, and the three of us went for car rides two or three times nearly every day, and spent lots of good times together. We went on walks around the neighborhood and I was allowed to ride with Ben in a golf cart several times at Prairie Green Golf Course! That was fun! I will be waiting for them in heaven, so I can thank them for rescuing me and giving me a Second home. I may get to wait outside the gates of Heaven so I can greet them when they arrive, just like they greeted me into their home! I know they will still talk to me and remember the things we did together, and hopefully will do it with a big smile on their faces! I know they will cry for me because I am gone from them, but I will be waiting for them in heaven! I will miss them too. It will not be heaven for me without them! Thanks, Diane, for getting the three of us together!
