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 vigour. 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, wh…

...As I write this, we are still in shock...a beloved member of our furry family just passed away He was so young, he was just born Sept 2010. He means alot to us and we are deeply saddened by his early passing. He is a very special, sweet, laid-back, mild little cat and we miss him so much-we are still in shock as we can't believe it yet. He always went for walks on the trails with us, running with tail held high like a flag and zooming up a tree, then stopping there looking at us to make sure we saw him-what a great little spirit he had, what a sweet boy-we will miss him tremendously. Today, we lost a son and had to bury our little boy. We miss you Kifli

So last night I came back to my dads and was welcomed by some heartbreaking news that ''3 pattes'' (3 legs), a cat we rescued a month ago had taken a turn for the worse. He made his final journey to the bridge on his blanket by my bed while being petted and loved until the end. 3 pattes as he became known, was a stray cat that was always around the house, he was lame for a while (hence how he got the nickname 3 legs) but did make a full recovery, a month ago we found him very weak in the grass. We just couldn't leave him there, and bought him to the vets, when they asked us his name we had nothing else than 3 legs (in French) and thats how he became known. We learne…

When we all ask the question" why don't they live longer" or "should live as long as we do" We think this is one of the best answers we have ever heard!! Sad, but true

Husky Owner's Prayer. . . . If I had one lifetime wish, Just one wish to come true. I would pray to God for yesterday, To again spend time with you. A thousand words can’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried. And neither will a million tears, I know because I’ve cried.

There is a place in heaven, it's called the husky camp Where huskys go to run and play Jump puddles and get damp There's sand pits just for digging And trees for sniffing too no one to say come on or hush there's room to howl and woo The sun shines all year long there and shady spots abound achy legs and old age gone They all can run around And when you get to heaven If you've been very good the gates to camp will open just like you knew they would Hope you like it

Hi, I wanted to share a beautiful poem with everyone that as loved and lost someone very special (hope no-one minds)....... God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands (paws) at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us... he only takes the best.

I found this & thought I'd share........ I remember I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep. I could see that you were crying. You found it hard to sleep. I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here." I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me. I was with you at the shops today. Your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more. I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care. …

This post is in memory and honor of Slade, a little Boston Terrier who is gone but will never be forgotten. This little dog will always have a special place in my heart. He was the last Christmas present given to me by my Father before he passed away. This dog was with me through some of the roughest times in my life. He was there when my Dad passed on and he was there through a lot of my mother’s illness. He was my little companion who seemed to always put a smile on my face. Slade passed on a few years ago but his impact upon my life and heart still remains strong. To anyone who says "it's just a dog" you apparently have never truly shared your life with one. The…

Lexie: 6/29/04 - 2/15/11 Hey, I'm just a fluff-butt runt who has gone through some tough times in my life span. Born on June 29, 2004, I was nothing but a runt in my litter so I was the last one to be picked up. For 3 years I resided in Burlington WI, with a small family who had another dog. They would let me run away for hours and not come after me... They decided to move off to an apartment where only one dog could be kept...Guess who got the boot?.. Before I knew it I was in the back of a truck going to a new home... My forever home... My Momma was my best friend! Every time she would leave to go to her friend's house I would whine an…

You arrived with a woo and a wag. Your antics stressed me at times. Teaching you was a challenge. Setting your boundries a chore. You stole my heart. A bond was formed. More than friends we became. When sad you brought joy. Antics ran amuck. Moments never were dull. Focussed and then some. Your strong will prevailed. The years they passed. We enjoyed the time. You taught me well. Life has been good. You have journeyed on. My heart still hurts. My soul is incomplete. Life is now a challenge. My memories of you remain. In my dreams I relive. The time we shared is precious. Run free til again we meet.

I know I don't come here really but I know a lot of older members will remember Angel from husky camps etc. Im sorry to say we had to help her on her final journey on Monday. 🥺 I'm utterly broken and Storm and Aurora are a bit lost as well. We feel like we have lost a part of ourselves, the pain is unbearable. Her ashes were delivered this morning, so she is finally back at home where she belongs. Hug your babies tight.

So this woman is a family's friend. She is a BIG fan of dogs and her true passion is mid-sized to large-sized dog. Recently she rescued a two-months-old husky puppy. She happily announce the arrival of her new family member and soon almost everyone in the family knows about it. I actually plan to pay a visit to her house, but school kept me busy and even if I have a free time my dad just won't let me go to her house =.= Anyway I have never seen her husky puppy up until today--because the puppy has walked the rainbow bridge not so long ago I heard about this dreadful news just a few days ago, and I am truly shocked because the puppy died because of intentional …

Hi all! for those of you who may remember, I just wanted you all to know that my Sable Siberian, Apollo crossed over the Rainbow bridge Sunday September 2, 2012 at 2:15 PM Eastern Standard Time. I couldn't get this to you sooner for that I apologise. The suspected diagnosis was osteosarcoma located in the right shoulder with possible surrounding tissue involvement. Apollo went from healthy no symptoms to euthanasia in less than one month it happened so very quickly like an avalanche. He was his cheerful bright self up until the very last two days when the pain just got to be too much and all he could do was lie and pant. His diabetes complicated the situation and no amou…

Today is the Autumnal Equinox - When both night and day are equally shared. It is also a time when Huskies who have passed, are honored by their Earthly caretakers with the lighting of a candle at 8:00 pm local time. This is done across the globe, so there is light to honor those beloved Huskies for a full 24 hours. If you have not suffered the loss of a beloved Husky, light a candle of hope - hope not only for your pack, but for packs all around the World.

It is with heavy heart that I make my first post on this forum. I regret that I didn't come across the forum until it's too late. My lovely Bailey was hit by a car on August 20th. Although he remained alive and appeared unmarked, he had suffered a blow to the head causing brain damage: he was paralysed. I took him to the vets and the vet immediately diagnosed the condition and advised me that there was little hope that he'd ever regain normal movement. Through all this he was clearly conscious as his eyes would follow me and react. He must have been totally bewildered and confused that he couldn't sit up or wag his tail. So with a very heavy heart, I signed the…
