There is a bridge connecting heaven and earth called the Rainbow Bridge. Just to the side of this multi - coloured bridge is a land of meadows, hills and valleys with lush green grass.

When our beloved pet dies they go to this wonderful place. There is always food and water and warm spring like weather. Our special friends can run and play together in the hills and valleys and are all happy and contented.

Those who had been ill or old are given eternal youth and good health again, those who were injured or maimed are made whole and strong again, to look just as we fondly remember them in our memories of happy days gone by.

There is only one thing missing from their perfect life, you, the special person who meant so much to them on earth.

So they run and play together until finally the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The eyes are intent, the nose twitches and the eager body quivers. They run from the group flying over the green grass as fast as their legs can carry them. You have been spotted on the bridge. When your special friend arrives you cling together your face is licked again and again your hands once again caress their head and stroke their body and you once more look into those big trusting eyes, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

You cross the Rainbow Bridge together never to be separated again.
