The Legend of Rainbow Bridge
(author unknown)

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies who has been especially close to someone here on earth, 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 and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who have 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 miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind.

The animals 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 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 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 together, you and your special pet cross the Rainbow Bridge.

I would like to offer my deepest condolences on the loss of your beloved friend and family member. I once had a Rottie, as well. Pets are very dear to us - they offer us unconditional love as close to God's own as can be, here on Earth. They don't mind if we're fat, ugly, loud, stupid, silly, blind, deaf, sick, or injured. They know that we are who we are and they love us, regardless.

May you find peace and comfort at this very difficult time.
