Rainbow Bridge Stories
 My Menolly, adopted in 2015, passed over the rainbow Bridge on April 6th, 2022. She was my buddy and my protector. Menolly enjoyed playing outside in the snow and made sure the yard was free of squirrels. She also loved to cuddle on the couch. My funny, beautiful, wonderful girl runs free now. |
 Nala would have been 12 years young in May. I adopted her at 10 weeks old from the MN Sheltie Rescue, and she remained the most gentle and sweetest dog through the years, even when she battled eye cancer two years ago. She was my shadow and in true Sheltie fashion, alerted us to every dog, person, leaf, mail delivery, door opening, approaching storm, you name it. While we take comfort in knowing she didn't suffer and went peacefully, the unexpectedness of her journey to the Rainbow Bridge didn't allow us to be with her or a chance to say goodbye before gaining her wings. Until we meet again, my sweet girl. |
 Franny’s life began when her loving family welcomed her into their hearts. After amputation due to damage to her front legs and feet, Franny used prosthetics that allowed her to be mobile without pain for the first time. Franny’s bravery and patience were truly an inspiration. She was a joy, so happy and loving, she enjoyed treats, being brushed, following her family around and getting belly rubs. Franny loved being the center of our world and we have lost a beautiful soul. Franny was wrapped in love as she unfolded her angel wings on April 1st, 2022, reunitingwith her sister Tess. Franny’s story: |
 Ramsey came into rescue in need of love, consistency, and a family who could establish trust with him. He found all of that with his foster family who fell in love with their sweet, complex little boy and helped him to gain confidence through training and agility. Ramsey blossomed into a loving, happy Sheltie who enjoyed his canine siblings. He bonded with dad over their mutual love of pretzels, and his mom was his everything. On March 29th, 2022 Ramsey ran across the Rainbow Bridge to meet up with Sammy the Rottweiler & Faith the Rottweiler. I smothered him with kisses and said a last goodbye. We felt lucky to have him. |
