Rainbow Bridge Memories
This page is dedicated in loving memory to the MNSR foster and adopted Shelties who are waiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge.
Rainbow Bridge Stories
 Smokey was so happy to join a loving family and soon found a best friend in Sheltie brother Bandit. Smokey very much enjoyed his daily games of fetch with his humans, hopping with excitement on all fours like a bunny, and played in the sprinkle on warm summer days. Smokey and Bandit loved to soak up the sun and were always together. As Smokey began to lose his hearing, Bandit would let him know when it was time to bark or to rally to greet visitors. Smokey crossed the Rainbow Bridge in September 2019. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have Smokey join our family. He brought us so much joy, and our world is not the same without him. |
 Belle was part of a large group of Shelties in need who came to MNSR. Her charm and exquisite beauty quickly landed her a wonderful forever home with a Sheltie-experienced family and Sheltie siblings. Belle's favorite things were her mom, walks, stuffed animals and being at the lake. She loved to kayak with mom, falling asleep from the slight rocking of the boat. Belle crossed the Rainbow Bridge on September 20th, rejoining her Sheltie brother Tucker at the Rainbow Bridge. |
 Jack joined his forever family during his rehabilitation from knee surgery. Through walks and exercises, they helped him regain his strength, and he was soon joined by another active youngster named Zorro. They had great fun going for walks and playing with toys together, and doing tricks for Charlie Bears, the bedtime ritual. Jack was always ready to herd anything that went by his fence, and nothing went by unannounced. Jack gained his angel wings on September 18th, 2019 and is dearly missed by his loving family and his brother. |
 Pooh Bear came into rescue at 10 years of age with medical issues. He also came with the most soulful, innocent eyes, and his charming, friendly personality quickly won over his vacation foster family who welcomed him with open arms to join their family permanently. He was always willing to provide a dose of Pooh Bear therapy if someone was having a rough day. Snuggling with him and holding his paw worked magic. Pooh Bear crossed the rainbow bridge September 15th, 2019 at the age of 17 years and 7 months, surrounded by his loved ones, his teddy, and his blankie. We told him about all the love he had from everyone on social media and about all the pals he will get to meet on the other side. |
