Our Best Friends Who Have Crossed the Rainbow Bridge

​

To Sandie Martin in memory of Bentley

Bentley was Sandie's first standard Poodle puppy. She had rescued before but Bentley was her first puppy from birth to passing over the rainbow bridge. He was everything to her. She trained him from a pup to an adult. He was so well manned he could fly in the airplane with her and he wasn't a service dog. she worked with on tricks and behavior constantly. He also was the most handsome poodle you have ever seen. impeccable manners and a calm demeanor unmatched by any Poodle I have ever met. When she lost him just after his 14th birthday she was lost. it was heartbreaking for her.

Django was an incredibly special poodle who warmed the home of Deb and Mike. He was endlessly sweet, gentle, and nurturing to me while I was pregnant with his future human buddy, Liv. In fact, he was the first to know our family was growing, as he sensed it before we did. We had a special year with Django in 2020, who thrived during "shelter at home" times. Even as a senior pup, Django would gear up and race me home as we rounded the final block of our daily walks. Django was so fortunate to have been taken in by Deb and Mike, who gave him a wonderful life, and in his honor, we hope more rescues like him find the perfect home and family. Django's memory and soul will live on and always hold a special place in our hearts!

Love from Allison Stillwell honoriing Deb Keating

 

​

Raffi entered my life and forever changed me for the better. Not only was he the most handsome and intelligent boy wonder, but his natural intuitiveness for when he was most needed was far beyond any other companion. He is forever loved by many and forever missed. Love, Edwin,Dec. 2022

See you at the rainbow bridge.

“It came to me that every time I lose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are.” Cheryl Zuccaro
