Loss of a great Companion

Mon Sep 21, 2009, 7:15 PM
Today we lost our Beloved Vinnie(age 15), he is with our other dog Pierre( we had for 9yrs since age 4months) at the Rainbow Bridge, playing and healthy again.
He was a very good companion for 13 of his 15 years and a playmate to our Little Yorkiepoo, Piper(age3) for a little over the past 2 years.
Vinnie picked up the good and bad habits of Pierre as they lived together for only 9 months as did Piper learn the good and bad habits of Vinnie over the past 2+ years.. so we say.... the LEGACY LIVES ON!
His health began to deteriorate 2 years ago with we adopted Piper and the Hearty Ol'Soul he is.. hung on this long with a severe heart problem, lived on two heart pills, arthritis pill and water pill a day.
We thank the good Lord we have our little YorkiePoo Piper, he is such a joy, full of love and energy.
We Miss him Terribly.

Rainbow Bridge Poem:

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 in Okeechobee, Love your photograph! its so hard to find copyright free photos to use as references to paint from. If you have any florida scenery I'd love to paint some. but would alter it from original photos, I dont copy, just use as references.
Have a good day!
