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....

The Perfect Home
(Dedicated to "Traveler" from his Foster Mom)

I’m here for you – I whisper to my friend
I’m here for you as our journey comes to an end.

You couldn’t understand this world I hold dear
You couldn’t understand there was nothing more to fear.

I tried to help you see you were safe at last
I tried to help you see you could forget the past.

You tried your best to trust someone again
You tried your best but you couldn’t let me in.

For you my friend, the perfect home will not be found
For you my friend, have the perfect home far above this ground.

As I hold you in my arms I tell you “now you’re safe”
As I hold you in my arms I tell you “you’re going to a better place”.

I’ve set you free to be a puppy once more
I’ve set you free on wings you can soar.

It was time again - to let another one go
It was time again and the tears start to flow.

This is dedicated to all the rescue animals that are just too damaged to allow us to help them. Try as we might we can’t save them all but we can guarantee they will no longer have to live in a world they don’t understand. Hold them tight while you set them free. God Speed Traveler –
I will see you again.
