Rio

Rainbow Bridge

The Rainbow Bridge is the theme of a work of poetic prose written some time between 1980 and 1992, whose original creator is unknown. The theme is of an other-worldly place to which a pet goes upon its death, eventually to be reunited with its owner.

    Rio

    Rio was 16 1/2. He was Emma's friend, and he was my friend. He didn't care much for Ena, LOL. She just pounced on his head, so she wasn't allowed to "play" with him. He was frail, and she would have knocked him over. Rio was an extreme, true hairless Chinese Crested. His favorite color was purple, followed closely by pink. A boy after my own heart. He's been failing, for a while, now. It's good that Chinese Cresteds are absorbant, because I'm sure a few of his children and grandchildren will be cried on, tonight.  He was a wonderful boy, full of spunk and silliness until the very end. He will be very, very missed.

    Run free, sweet Rio.

    Maybe Abby will look him up & show him the sunny spots.

     I'm sorry to hear of Rio's passing, and yet glad that he had such a long time to share a life with his favorite people and dogs.  Run free, Rio.

    Rio will love it over the Bridge -- you can lie in the sun and not get burned, you can lie on the grass and never itch.  You feel good enough to do whatever you want but you don't HAVE to do anything.  Have fun, Rio!!
