Bouvier passed tonight in my arms
 
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( I am very sad to say my Bouvier, my beautiful cocker spaniel baby went to the Rainbow Bridge tonight at 8:30. I was holding her and had just been cuddling her when she sighed and in her own way said thanks. I am heartbroken. She was 16 and I had adopted her when she was 3. She will always be sorely missed. RIP Bouv!! http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/j...a/000_1285.jpg :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

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, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals 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 quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him 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 the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together…

What a reunion to look forward to! God bless you Rhonda, Ed, and Bouv.

Dear Ronda,

I am so so sorry to hear that Bouv died. I was praying for a miracle to happen.

You were so lucky to share Bouv's last moments together. I can understand the pain and loss you are feeling. At the same time I hope you are thinking of Bouv when you got him when he was three years old.

Your Sistahs and Bruddahs have written many beautiful words to you - read them when you feel you need extra strength - remember they were all sent with love and compassion.

Sending you

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS, LOVE, STRENGTH AND A SHOULDER)))))))))))))))))))))))))

Oh Rhonda -

My heart bleeds for you.
What a wonderful life you gave Bouv and what happy memories she left with you.
She must have left filled with love and peace as you held her in your arms.

My thoughts are with you........

Ironically, she passed exactly 2 years after her son, Bubba. It was a Sunday. 8-19-2006 when Bubba also died in my arms. The date is slightly different because of the calender, but I knew it was Bubba's anniversary of going to Rainbow bridge. My heart is broken, but is mending knowing and remembering our baby and our unique bond. I adopted her, helped her birth her babies, (4 were breach) and held her when she left. What a special dog she was!! I want to thank all of my TOTV friends for your comforting words!!!! Bouv is in my heart and always will be. :'( Thanks to all of you, again!!!

I am so sorry, Rhonda, I melted when I read how Bouvier left you and it brought back a very strong memory for me. What a lucky little puppy Bouvier was when you walked into her life! That is a very long doggie life so she must have had much love and care from her family. And I'll bet she gave sooo much back to all.

Thank you for sharing this Ronda...Bless you and Bouv....I have never seen this before...what a gift it was for us!

Re: Bouvier
 
My wonderful vet, Dr. Valdez, sent this RB poem to us 2 years ago when I lost Bubba, Bouvs son. He was my special little guy and I had a tough time losing him. You see, when Bouv gave birth, Bubba wasn't breathing. I panicked, not knowing what to do. Instinct kicked in. I gave him life. I sucked his snout! yuk. But it worked. He was my shadow every minute of every day! I still miss him terribly. The "Rainbow Bridge" has helped me tremendously and I am happy you found it as meaningful as I did!!!
