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 that had been ill and old are restored
to health and vigor. Those who were hurt 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.... |

Coconut Garner waiting for Shawn & Robin
since 09/30/2007
My little girl Coconut passed away Sunday morning.
As you all know she hasn't been doing good the past few weeks but it
was very peaceful when it happened. Robin handed her over to me when
I got there this morning and we went to her favorite spot "the
recliner" and within five minutes she stretched out, licked my
finger (which was always her way to give me the seal of approval)
and let me know it was time to go. Coconut had 16 wonderful years
with us and was the staple of our fur children and she ruled the
roost. She had many nicknames and would answer them all. Woobie, The
Queen, Little Bit, Boo, Spitfire and Pee pot just to name a few. She
had many adventures also. Camping buddy in the Smokies and Fall
Creek Falls, Experienced Canoe paddler and her favorite was riding
the cats in the house by jumping off the couch and later coming back
in the living room with a wad of cat hair in her mouth (hence the
Spitfire name). Words cannot express how deeply this two and half
pound dog affected our lives but just knowing that she had a fun
filled life with us will help us through. |

Things Jessie Taught Me
- Never miss a chance to lie down and have a short nap.
- If there are no roses to smell, dandelions and clover have very nice
aroma.
- The slower you walk, the more you can enjoy the earth under your feet,
the sun on your fur, and the air that you breathe.
- Good hearing is not necessarily an attribute; sometimes you know more
about a person, or a dog, by listening with your heart.
- Take every opportunity you get to roll in the tall grass; more IS
better.
- If the sun is shining, bask in it; if there are
clouds, imagine; if there is wind, let it ruffle your fur; if
there is rain, step in every puddle; if there are people around,
let them pet you all they want- remember that dog love is not
limited by size or volume.
- In all ways, always be a Lady.
- Be Hudson |
