Rest sweetly Gobie

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.

     Aw, I'm so sorry. Run free lil guy. Broken Heart

    There are many dogs waiting at the Bridge to help you, Gobie.  Look for Callie's "Grammy Dog"!  She will be waiting for you right as you enter. My old girl, Sasha, will be next to her.  They are great greeters, aren't they?

    Shammy, I know you made the right chouce but that doesn't make the hole in your heart any smaller.  I hope that some day the happy memories will help you smile again when you think of the Gobie Monster.  ((warm hugs)) to you & your family.

    Run free, Gobie.  I'm sure that there's a little Papillon girl at the Bridge that will tell you where to go if you get lost.

     ((((((HUGS))))))

    I wish there was more I could do... all I can say is I have tears of sadness for your loss.

    Run free Gobie

     I'm so sorry. I'm glad he got to see his dad one last time.

    I am so sorry -- and Lori's right -- Grammy dog had all her buds gathered for Gobie.

    I'm glad Gobie waited until Jess came home -- makes it sadder for him, but then again, I have a feeling sometimes it just enables the sick one to "relax" just ot know 'Dad' was back home to take care of Mom and everbuddy else.

    Run free Gobie dear, with all the other puppies at the Rainbow Bridge.

    Hugs to you. There are never words to express the emotions that go on at this time.

    Yes, I am glad that he waited until Jess got home. He seemed to be just fine, even doing great until the week jess arrived. He seemed to let go of his tough guy attitude, like he knew we were going to be ok. 

    I am actually ok, once we got him buried and planted a purple "twilight serenade" salvia plant on his grave. I found a granite memorial place that is making a small field marker with his name on it. Since we're leaving town on Weds. my mom is picking it up and taking it out to the farm to place on Gobie's grave. 

     I was truely devastated. Huge sobs.  I didn't realize how much in pain he must've been until the vet gave him a tranq to help him be calm for his final shot.  He finally relaxed, nothing tense at all. He laid down in my lap and snuggled down. He finally stopped coughing/wretching.

    Sweet boy.  But, we mustn't feel sorry now, he wouldn't want that. So let's all go pee on trees, scratch off after pooping and have a great time!
