The Rainbow Bridge
Author unknown Between Earth and Heaven stretches the glorious Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to the 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 vigour; 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, someone who was 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 begins to quiver. Suddenly, he breaks from the group, flying over the green grass, 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 those trusting eyes, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart. Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together... A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z

I rescued Danny from Hurricane Katrina on September 19,2005, he was a true survivor, We named him Lt. Dan seeing he was from Louisianna. Danny swam out of the Hurricane to a fire station where we picked him up and brought him to Lamar Dixon for safety. After fostering him for a couple of weeks I decided to adopt him as he was so in need of me. Danny fit very nicely into my home and got along great with my other dogs. I taught him how to not be afraid of Thunderstorms, to ride in the car, and not destroy all of his toys. He let me dress him up for Halloween, and was such a cuddler. I loved him. Danny started to realize that my Akita Tonka was getting older and Danny started to challenge Tonka a bit. On April 26th, Danny and Tonka had a spat at my house and Danny accidentally bit Tonka in the juggular vein and Tonka died within seconds. As much as I would have done anything to forgive Danny for this, my other dogs would not forgive him for taking out their pack leader and they exiled Danny from the pack. I miss Danny and Tonka terribly. No one should ever have to experience losing 2 dogs you love at the same time. Tonka and Lt. Dan............You will always be missed and live in my heart forever, I wish I could get past this tragedy. You guys took part of me with you. Suzi Click a letter to find an animal or view all.
