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 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 have 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 begins to quiver. 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...

~William (Bill) N. Britton, 1994~

 

Our Beloved Beh-Jeh

1992 - 2008

Beh-Jeh came with my husband as a package deal.  He was a year old when Danny and I met and was completely unsocialized, still intact and had no obedience training  It was over a year before I could trust him off leash!!  His socialization came quickly, he loved all other dogs and dogs who didn’t like him didn’t matter in his world.  He was kind and gentle and always an attraction where ever we went.  He was a stunning dog with deep red markings against the whitest white you have ever seen.  His coat was always clean…or was soon after a muddy walk!

Beh-Jeh was a malamute wolf cross, but not at all like any of the hybrid dogs I have met.  He was gentle and slow with kids, kind with other dogs, not food aggressive….just one of the best dogs I have ever had the pleasure of sharing my life with.

We were very lucky to have in our lives, he raised Caemon, Kenya and Cairo from puppies, and got to take part in the raising of Kenya and Star’s litters.  Whenever the puppies came back for visits it seemed they all took a special moment to great Uncle Beh-Jeh. 

He hated being left at home when I was showing Caemon, so Beh-Jeh would pack all of our show gear in and out of the buildings for me, hooked up to whatever I could rig up as a cart.  Sometimes even just dragging the kennel on the ground behind him.  He loved to work, loved to run and loved to chase and catch gophers…..boy did he ever. He could wait forever for a gopher to come out of the woodpile. 

Behj, as we called him stayed fit for a long time, starting to slow down at about 10 yrs old, until then he always accompanied us on our 2 hour jaunts to Nose Hill park.  He lived most of his life with spondylosis, but never really let it bother him, too be honest, except for a trip to the vet because of an attack on a porcupine, he never went to the vet.  He was healthy to the end, it was his joints that gave up. 

We will never have another dog like him again in our lives,  and I have so many great memories of him, not enough space on this page for all of them.  He will forever live in our hearts and minds as truly one of the greatest.

Thank-you for everything Behj, till we meet again.
