Roo Reports from across the Rainbow Bridge

[Maryann,Roo and Tigger]

Roo here.  I have been very tired so haven't reported much lately.  The last I remember I was laying on the floor and my mom was petting my head -love that - well love any attention really.  I was very very sleepy.

When I woke up I felt great, like a young pup again, but smarter.  I can't find Mom or Dad or Tigger, but there are lots of other dogs and grass  and trees and smells.  Oh the smells.....  This must be a very big dog park.  No people though - weird. 

Here comes Storm.  Wow!  Haven't seen her for awhile.  Storm, I knew from home, when I was really young.  I sort of remember her going to sleep with Mom's hand on her.  Storm was very old and sometimes crabby then, but she still would get up occasionally from her bed and let me play with her.  I remember that Mom told me she was off limits if she was in bed.

Storm just play bowed and took off running - I gotta go!

I'm back again, and I feel great, not even breathing hard..  I never have really understood that game, but all the other Huskies I know like it too.   Now she is explaining that if I were to go down any of the paths that smelled like human, I would find the people.  She said Mom and Dad weren't here yet though.  There is so much to smell here and lots of dogs to make friends with.  Plus people! People love me and I love people.  So much to check out !  You may not hear from me for awhile again. 

Hey, Mom, Dad, just to let you know, I feel so good again.  Try to let me know when you get here, because I am going to be busy making friends. 

Roo, signing off from across the rainbow bridge.

Crying my eyes out here! We lost our Jake a few months ago to heart failure. Reading your letter felt like words from Jake.OMG how I still miss him. I love the puppies but they are not our Jake. I can't even bring myself to take his picture off my main photo and put in the pups. He was one of a kind and so full of understanding and love. Everyone loved Jake.

Oh my Maryann - I am so sorry for your loss.  Thank you for sharing Roo's beautiful side of the story.  Run like the wind Roo!

I'm so sorry about Roo.

I'm very sorry for your loss, what a beautiful story and tribute.

[BG and Gavin]

I have missed the Roo reports. This one brought tears to my eyes and a small smile too. Hope you are holding up okay Maryann.

[Bonnie and Kona]

Oh Maryann, Please know this is such a lovely Roo story and I'm so sure it is just right. Roo is doing well. I hope you are doing well too. It is so so so hard. Sending you lots of love. There is no substitute for your Roo, but I hope you find joy in the memories and in a new pup when the time is right. 

[Janet & Jaxson]

I am so sorry to hear about Roo. It is so hard because their life is so short and we love them so much. Roo sounds like he is living free and easy across the rainbow bridge. Love to you and your family.

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

So sorry to read about Roo but such a sweet story to honor him.  Letting them go is the hardest thing that we ever have to do for them, but loving them enough to let them go when the time comes, is the greatest gift we can ever give them.  My wish for you, as is my wish for everyone who has lost their beloved babies is that one day your wonderful memories will bring a smile rather than tears.  Hugs.
