| ~ A Dogs Soul ~ Every dog must have a soul Somewhere deep inside Where all his hurts and grievances Are buried with his pride. Where he decides the good and bad, The wrong way from the right, And where his judgement carefully Is hidden from our sight. A dog must have a secret place Where every thought abides, A sort of close acquaintance that He trusts in and confides. And when accused unjustly for Himself, He cannot speak, Rebuked, He finds within his soul The comfort he must seek. He'll love, tho' he is unloved, And he'll serve tho' badly used, And one kind word will wipe away The times when he's abused. Although his heart may break in two His love will still be whole, Because God gave to every dog An understanding Soul! ~ Author unknown ~ |

| ~ Sierra ~ My golden girl Sierra touched many lives. Her best friend's name is Shadow and the golden retriever with the teddy bear is Sahara, her house mate and litter sister who went to the Bridge 12 yrs ago. Sierra loved tennis balls and she could carry 4 of them all at the same time. She had a wonderful sense of humor. Her hair was so soft it felt like silk. She loved to take everything slow, always ready to " stop for a visit" and she had many friends. Her nick name was BooBoo. She loved swimming and she adored snow. She would stretch in the snow making snow angels, going around and around, in a complete circle. I called them Sierra's snow angels. One of the picture shows her doing just that. When she got a favorite treat or when she was really happy, she would dance,jumping and twisting her head and body. Everyone loved to see her dance. Oh, how I miss my Sierra dancing! And we would watch her sleep,just like an angel, and an angel she is now for sure. She was never left alone for more than a hour or two, for Wade and I both took her to work. Her birthday is Jan 8,the same day as Elvis Presley, whom we loved to dance to. She would have been 10 years old this week. She was my best friend and I miss her so. I miss her softness,her sweetness, her sloppy kisses,her hugs, her warmth and her golden, loving heart. I could write about her for every minute for the rest of my life and still not beable to describe her as she really was and the special love we shared. I have never in my life felt such pain and sorrow. Because of you and all the other wolves and petloss.com, I am managing to get through the emptiness and sorrow Sierra's Journey to the Rainbow Bridge left behind. All of you helped me talk about her, something I need to do,as I want the world to know very special my BooBoo girl is and always will be. She touched our hearts and never let go. THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU SO MUCH for what you do. Magicwolf and Lobowolf, bless you for what you do... Jori, Mommy of Sierra & Sahara, January 4, 2003 |

| ~ GOLDEN DOG ~ Golden dog, lying there. Golden dog, without a care. Golden dog, 3 years of age. Golden dog who knows not rage. Golden dog, how could we be, so lucky as to have gotten thee. Golden dog, with the golden heart. Golden dog who is so smart. Golden dog who brings all joy. Golden dog, who is never without a toy. Golden dog we love thee so, from the top of your head, to the bottom of your toe. Golden dog, what is your name? Here's your tag, hidden within your mane. The name is Sierra, the tag spells out, and you love your family that is no doubt. You are loved by all you meet. You are never forgotten by those who greet. The beautiful dog who I see lying there, the beautiful dog, with golden hair. ~ Author unknown ~ |
