Rainbow Bridge Memories

This page is dedicated in loving memory to the MNSR alumni who found their forever families and are now waiting for us at the Bridge. 

Rainbow Bridge Stories

We are grateful that Jack had a very loving family who was committed to his physical and emotional well-being. They helped Jack work through anxiety, and nurtured him back to health after a cancer scare. Jack loved to go for walks, and saying hi to his dog friends in the neighborhood. He knew that the kitchen was where good stuff happens and he hopefully waited for a tasty morsel to fall. Jack was the sweetest boy and a gentle soul. 

I wasn’t ready. I’ve never even contemplated life without my baby girl Princess. Of course when you get a pet, you know the inevitable. But I still wasn’t ready.

 

MY baby girl. The dog I adopted myself at just 15 years old. We took a trip to Fargo to rescue a different dog, but ended up bringing home Princess. The most stunning sheltie I’ve ever seen and ever will see. She was my best pal, the sassiest girl, and she really lived up to her name.

Remy was our sixth Sheltie, a breed we have come to love so much. All our dogs possessed the breed characteristics, but each one had their own unique personality. Remy’s defining trait was his devotion. We are temporarily lost without his warmth and constant displays of love and affection, and we are so sad because he was still young and had so much more love and affection to give and get. Mr. Blue Eye. So sweet. So healthy. Never sick a day in his life. Our very best booper boy. Rest In Peace, sweet Remy. You will always be so loved and so missed.

Zander was adopted by his foster family who lovingly nursed him back to health. He adored his big brother Niko and they played together constantly. Zander enjoyed going to obedience and agility classes, keeping the yard free of bunnies and squirrels, and watching dog movies on TV. He was a darling, sweet boy who was cherished and loved fiercely by his family. Zander rejoined his beloved brother Niko and sister kitty Pindle at the Rainbow Bridge.
