I received this lovely message from such kind and generous owners of Sasha. I started treating Sasha some years ago for hip dysplasia/arthritis. She did amazingly well having not been able to walk much many years ago. Thanks to the dedication of her owners she continued to have many fun filled years. I thought the story below was beautiful – had not heard this one before and thought many owners out there could relate to such a story – the Rainbow Bridge. THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING!

Hi Brooke,

n

 

n

Just a note to let you know that Sasha is no longer with us. She had been quite good for some time with no major problems from hips or back, and was enjoying walks, the beach, and life in general.

nWe are still having trouble adjusting to life without Sasha, and are sure we can sometimes hear her in the yard.

n

We will probably get another dog in the future, but not for a little while.

n

Thank you for all the help you gave us during the time you were treating Sasha, as this certainly extended and improved the time we were able to enjoy with her.

n

 

n

Once again , thanks for looking after Sasha, and we may catch up again some time.

n

Best regards from Jan & Peter.

THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

n

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. 
n
nWhen an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. 
nThere are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. 
nThere is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. 
n
nAll 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. 
nThe animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. 
n
nThey 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. 
n
nYou 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. 
n
nThen you cross Rainbow Bridge together…. 
nAuthor unknown…
