Rainbow Bridge
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....

Harry you lived at Pug Rescue SA for just over a year. You were found wondering around bewildered on a main road and we offered to take you in. You were a real old boy, we had to remove your eye and all your teeth but you were happy with us. You got the name of Harry Potter as you just loved to potter around at Pug Rescue. You loved your food and your warm bed and especially loved your cuddles. The last two week of your life you were no longer a happy old boy and you lost your appetite. Harry Potter you will always be a legend at Pug Rescue and we will miss you always. |

We found your owners but they did not want you back. We nurtured you back to health and gave you a warm and loving home then decided that you would spend your retirement with us. On the 10th of April you were sent over to the rainbow bridge in the arms of someone who was crying for you and whispering in your ear how much she loves you - she was a rescuer. You were larger than life Oubaas. Rus sag my seunie ons sal altyd lief wees vir jou. Pug Rescue SA will never be the same without our Oubaas. |

Your sudden passing has left a void in my heart. My angel I miss you so much. You were such a happy child, prancing around the house with your big brown eyes always wagging your tail. I will miss your enthusiasm at meal time, the way your head tilted just at the word "biscuit". Figo thank you for touching my heart, you were a pleasure and I could never have asked for a more gentle soul. My angel, may your gentle soul rest in peace. Apart of me will never understand why you had to leave so sudden. I guess it's because Angels are only borrowed to us. Goodbye my Feegsta. Love Mommy |

Emma DOB unknown - 12 October 2008 |
|
She was so adorable, sweet and loving and well behaved, truly the best dog, but she had one fault - she was a runner. Any opportunity she could get, she would go running out at full speed. We always managed to catch her, except on that one fateful day in October last year. She ran across a road, to see the dogs across the road, and when she saw us, she came running back faithfully, and straight into the traffic. I still blame myself, but she ran so fast, she was impossible to catch. We rushed her to the vet, and we hoped and prayed for her, but they couldn't help Emma. We lost her, but she will stay in our hearts forever. |
