Rainbow Bridge

Every time a dog (whether he is a beloved pet or has spent the last of his time in a shelter) leaves this world, we like to think that they cross the rainbow bridge. If you have ever lost a pet, then you can be sure that they are waiting for you just over this bridge. It is a place where arthritic dogs can run and play without pain, starved dogs have an endless supply of food and biscuits and cold dogs have nice big doggie beds to curl up in. There is no such thing as a fence or a chain, and the word "no" does not exist.

This page is dedicated to those that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge and await their human companions. If you would like to have your dog memorialized on this page, please contact us, and for a minimal donation of $25, we can list your dog here along with a picture of your loved one.

Milo, May you be out of pain and feel no sickness any longer. You were my little man for 10 years and I will miss your little feet prancing around with the big dogs. The toughest little man around! Be at peace my little man. I love you.
 

Hunter

Hunter
Hunter was fortunate enough to find a wonderful foster family, however, we found out shortly after rescuing him that his poor body had been riddled with heartworms. Unfortunately, his disease was too advanced for his body to handle the difficult treatment. Hunter's tragic case speaks to the importance of preventative treatment for heartworm disease. Hunter was barely a year old--it was terrible to see such a beautiful, youthful dog pass away, but we find comfort in knowing he spent his last days with people who loved him.  
 


Buddy was the best stray we ever could of asked for. We already had a female GSP so Buddy fit right into our family. Buddy lived 6 months after we were told he had cancer. He was still a very happy dog until his last day and brought joy to us with his signature woof. He wasn’t a big fan of the cold weather and enjoyed car rides and treats, especially the big milk bones. May he rest up in doggy heaven chasing the girls and laying in the sun. We love and miss you Buddy Boy.
