RAINBOW BRIDGE

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....

I'm dreaming of a magic castle where, I'm sure, one day we all will meet again and will play as thoughtless as we were when our adventure started. In that castle, we'll be all together again, Nadya and Gianni with our Pomeranian and we'll be able to live happy and free, without any fear that some of us can leave, because it will be for ever...

You have been our life's friend for 12 anni. You came with us to the end of the world, always ready to make every situation happy, whether it was job or entertainment, with your wheedling, when you left in my arms, I thought I could not stand it. I didn't know my destiny was keeping aside for me another event, far more painful and harder. In every Spitz that is born I see you, something of your being that was strongly mine. Now, and those who do not believe must not judge, I think you are together in that garden, Spitz and owner, comforting each other, watching over me and over what is left of our family and... waiting for me!

MALIUSINKY'S STELLA DI FUOCO
 
Stella was (having to use the past is still very hard to face) one of my prefered dogs. I was holding her in my harms when she left me after 9 years of life together and sharing ups and downs; I realized I could still be hurt deep inside... if sorrow reaches you suddenly and at a close distance and changes your life, you feel as if nothing can hurt you anymore and make you suffer... I was wrong and I realized my heart could still be broken when she passed away.
Stella was fantastic, she was a true pet, close to me day and night. She was beautiful, she was tiny and as red as fire but, alas, too small to be shown weighing in at just 1 kg, that is why I never showed her but she was a BIS winner in my heart. To think of her is hurtful but, also, brings joy when I think of all she gave me. She had the quite unique feature to be able to take notice of courses during lunchs and dinners and immediately understood when we were having fruit. She used to lay quiet in her box but at fruit time she started to beg for a piece of peach or pear. We even tried to invert the order of courses just to see what she would have done but Stella, despite her being so small and could not see what was going on on the table, always knew when we were having fruit and started to beg so loudly to impress our guests who did not know of her actress talent. She had such expressive and melting eyes that made you feel sure she would have fainted without a grape or a strawberry, which she always got without too much effort... After her death I did not eat fruit for a long time and even now it tastes different.
I hope that my beloved Stellina, on the rainbow bridge where she is now and where we'll meet again one day, she has her share of goddies every day!! Good bye sweetie, it is rethorical to say that I will never forget you but I have no other words...

Dedicated to all the people who patted me during the 16 years of my long life... Now I am with my beloved owner in the green fields where no sorrow or neglect exist, but I thank everybody who loved and appreciated me even if I wasn't a show champion, I am sure that they had a small place for me in their heart... which was sweet to know and pass away with Nadya's hand covering my eyes...
