RAINBOW BRIDGE
Gone but not forgotten......
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, so our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who have been ill and old are restored to health and vigour,
Those hurt or maimed are made whole and strong,
Just as we remember them in our dreams of days gone by.
They are happy and content, except for one small thing
..
They each miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops
And looks into the distance.
His bright eyes are intent, his eager body begins to quiver.
Suddenly, he breaks from the group, flying over the green grass,
His legs going faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet,
You cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.
The happy kisses rain upon your face, your hands again caress the beloved head
And you look once more into those trusting eyes, so long gone from your life,
But never absent from your heart.
Then, you cross the Bridge
..together.
ALL our boxers are individually cremated...... they will all be re-united and 'scattered' with Wendy eventually. Never to be parted again.
Our beloved Ginny, the foundation of all we have today. She lives on in the legacy she left us.
She was my soulmate, she knew my every mood..if I cried she would kiss away my tears, if I laughed she'd be overjoyed....I could swear she was laughing with me. I dreaded the day she would leave me, which came in the year 2000. I now know she will never leave me as she is with me always......in my heart.She was my 'once in a lifetime'.
Giles (Jinnybrux Gigolo)Ginny's son,was multiple stud book qualified, he put us on the map.A placid character, he would never start an argument as he was such a gentleman.However, neither was he a coward and would stand his ground.
Jezzy (Jinnybrux Jezabel) litter sister of Giles and totally opposite. She could start an argument in an empty room, but boy did she show! A sweetheart with people and everyone loved (and remembered!) her.Also multiple stud book qualifed.
Champion Chlolocx Classic Case for Jinnybrux (Tyler), a daughter of our Jinnybrux Gigolo. She made our wildest dreams come true.
A sweetheart, with the most gentle temperament, she loved everyone and everything. A joy to be owned by.
Pictured below in summer 2007, aged 10yrs, our beloved gentle giant, Giorgio ( Jinnybrux Just a Fluke).He would have defended me with his life. Sadly helped to Rainbow Bridge on 16th Dec. 2007. He slept on my bed...and broke my heart when he lost his battle to live. I am honoured to have been owned by him.
I dedicate the following to him, which describes far better thasn I can what I feel and want to say.
Every night in my dreams
I see you. I feel you.That is how I know you go on.
Far across the distance and spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.
Near, far, wherever you are, I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door and you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
Love can touch us one time and last for a lifetime,
And never let go till we're gone.
Love was when I loved you, one true time I hold to.
In my life we'll always go on.
Near, far, wherever you are, I believe that the heart does go on
There is some love that will not go away,you're here,
there's nothing I fear,and I know that my heart will go on.
We'll stay forever this way, you are safe in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
He was my soulmate, protector & best friend....my Giorgio.

Right...........towards her last days in 2007.....enjoying the sun. She will be much missed and always remembered..........she made everyone's dreams come true. Thanks to Andy (her owner) for the photo's......and to him and Tina for loving/spoiling her for all her life....we send him, Tina and the children our deepest sympathy.She lives on.....in our hearts..........and in her children.Run free Nike.
To our darling Jinty (Jinnybrux I'm a Celebrity) , pictured below, we dedicate the following..............because this was what kept going through my mind when she'd left us.........so appropriate too..........because you felt my love, all of your life, just as I felt yours. Love you so very much Jinty.
(24:3:2003 - 02:04:2013). When the rain Is blowing in your face And the whole world Is on your case I could offer you A warm embrace To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows And the stars appear And there is no - one there To dry your tears I could hold you For a million years To make you feel my love
I know you Haven't made Your mind up yet But I would never Do you wrong I've known it From the moment That we met No doubt in my mind Where you belong
I'd go hungry I'd go black and blue and I'd go crawling Down the avenue You Know there's nothing That I wouldn't do To make you feel my love
The storms are raging On the rolling sea And on the highway of regret The winds of change Are blowing wild and free You ain't seen nothing Like me yet
I could make you happy Make your dreams come true Nothing that I wouldn't do Go to the ends Of the Earth for you To make you feel my love, To make you feel my love
