Just this side of heaven is a place called the Rainbow Bridge… On days like today, I think of my sweet Sampson the Great Dane. It’s raining and stormy out. His terror over thunder was immense. He has crossed over to the other side. It is a comforting thought to think he is now in a place with sunshine and green meadows everyday…

As Summer comes to an end I find myself reflecting on all of the beautiful animals that have touched my life over the years. I’ve lost birds, pigs, goats, cats, fish and dogs. For me the greatest losses have come with the beautiful Great Danes we have adopted in the last 12 years. We bring in rescues. They are an amazing breed with so much love and devotion. Unfortunately, their lifespans are very short averaging 7-8 years. Two left us due to bone cancer, which is common in this large breed, especially the males. Our time with them was way too short, but the love they gave made it worth it. Others made it to ripe old ages of up to 11 years. I still think of all of them every day. They are never forgotten…
“Mogo” the black one (3+ years) and “Sampson” (7+ years) the fawn, both crossed the rainbow bridge just a year apart. They were best buddies…
“Bacchus” (6+ years) the larger patched harlequin, “Maile” (9+ years) the smaller patched and “Sophie” another black (11+ years). I miss them so much…
