In Memoriam: My beautiful Jenna
One wonders what goes through the minds of the dogs who are left. I let Feeny see you, and Zoey too. Feeny pawed at you and she pawed at me, as if to say, get up Jenna, get up NOW. Zoey ran in circles and would not go near. Zoey is older and wiser than Feeny , even though she is smaller, and she knew there was no use. You are now running with your mother, Angel, and King Arthur, and Windy, and Callie, and Bear, and Showme...and so many many others who have gone before. What a crowd will be there to greet me when I go to the Rainbow Bridge.
The Rainbow Bridge poem is comforting for those who lose a dog (or any pet). You can buy Rainbow Bridge Sympathy cards in many different breeds and keep them on hand to send to your friends when they lose a pet. If you've never read the "Rainbow bridge" poem here it is in its entirety:
THE 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 origins of this beautiful poem have been lost somewhere...if anyone does know of the author I sure would like to find out.
All I know is, if there is no heaven for dogs, then I'm not going!
In Memoriam: My Partner, My friend, My SARDOG
My Angel... She served me so well........
KAYLAR'S CHRISTMAS ANGELIt has been 10 months almost to the day now since I lost my Angel girl...my search dog, my partner, my best friend. These days when I train and practice and go on a callout, I am with her daughter and Jenna...she is so much like Angel that I STILL sometimes make the mistake of calling her "Angel". I have the ashes of all my newf sof the past...there are lots of boxes in my closet. I have yet to find the exact container that I want...I want them all to match, I want them all to have a place to put a photo, and I want them all to be "just right" So I still don't have anything yet for the urns. Some day...maybe, I will just sit down and make my own, plain wooden boxes with a beautiful finish.
I miss my Angel. Somehow the worst time is when I line up the bowls to feed the dogs and there is one missing. I gain great comfort from other Newfoundland owners who tell me "It's ok to grieve" ...I hope you, too, will remember this if you have lost a pet. They are a LARGE part of your life. Angel was with me 14 and a half years! So now I have, in my heart, fourteen and a half years of memories. I am one of the lucky ones!Newfoundland home pages to read more about my Newfoundlands. Any of readers who would like to submit photos and memorial poetry or other sentiments about pets they have lost.
The passing of Summer:
Now there is another loss: "Kaylars Midsummer Dream" (Summer))was sent to a pet home awhile back to live out her life, with a dear friend of mine who had just lost her other newfie. The remaining newfie that she had was bereft and mourning. It worked out so well, and Summer brought her happy wagging tail and happy disposition into her new home. She has been loved these past few years and became a BIG part of the lady's life. But this past week I got the sad news that Summer is gone. It seems appropriate somehow that she has faded from our lives with the fading of the summer months. Summer was a great girl, she was always so pleasant to other dogs and quite unassuming. Just like her mother"Purdy" she had a soft heart in her heart for people who were sick and she would hover over them. Summer was one of two in the family, and now my friend is going to be replacing her with yet another newfoundland, to help Winnie, the one who is left, to get over the loss.

Losing Sassy...how her dog friend reacted
Strange but true
The day after she passed, my friends golden retriever Champ was in the back yard where he and Sassy always played.
My friend watched in amazement as Champ, the golden, who sorely missed his friend Sassy, spent nearly a half hour in what she later termed "ghost play". He was dancing and twirling and play bowing and even play biting IN THE AIR as if his best friend Sasy was right there, playing with him!!
