Rainbow Bridge Stories
 Beautiful little Emily came to us from a puppymill, having never experienced love or life inside a home. She made tremendous strides with her foster family in building trust and courage. Emily continued to blossom in her loving forever home, where she was joined by MNSR Shelties Candy and Jessie, and she found a best friend in German Shepherd Tyler. Emily and Tyler were quite the pair, she at 11 lbs. and he at 110 lbs.! Emily enjoyed her role as matriarch, barking instructions to her siblings as they raced around the yard. Dear Emily gained her angel wings on June 29th, 2019, reuniting with her best friend at the Rainbow Bridge. |
 We were completely puzzled as to why someone would abandon Dori as her previous person did, because Dori charmed everyone she encountered when she came into rescue, including the person she picked to be her new mom. Dori loved to roll in the snow and looked forward to her twice daily walks with mom. Dori crossed the Rainbow Bridge on June 12th, 2019 at the age of 14 years. |
 Stormy Blue found a forever family who was committed to helping her feel less afraid in her world. Medication ended up being the right answer for this sweet girl, and she became much more relaxed in her own fur and able to enjoy her life with her loving family. Our beloved girl Stormy Blue passed away June 7th, 2019. She was happy, loved, and I have no doubt that she fully understood how much we treasured the years we had with her, and the fact that she had a forever home that cherished her as we did. Thank you for bringing a great love into our lives. |
 Beautiful Molly was diagnosed with a congenital heart abnormality called PDA, Molly was in need of life-saving cardiac surgery, and her guardian angels came along while she was still in foster care. Once she recovered, her guardian angels came to meet her and, when she sat on dad's lap and gave him a Sheltie kiss, we knew they were meant to be a family. Molly joined 2 rescue Sheltie sisters in her home, and later became a wonderful big sister and role model herself to 3 rescue Sheltie girls. Molly’s favorite activities were daily walks, protecting the family from airplanes overhead, and making friends with everyone she met. Sweet Molly crossed the Rainbow Bridge on June 4th, 2019. We are forever grateful to MNSR who allowed us to adopt this beautiful, personality-packed little girl. She was the sweetest, most loving Sheltie we've ever had, always close to her mom & dad. She brought us so much joy, and her benevolent alpha dog personality was perfect for our home. |
