beloved friend, who gave his or her love unconditionally. If you've lost a beloved pet, we invite

Email us at
rainbowbridge@papillonpalsrescue.com to find out more on how you too can
have your pet memorialized here with us.

There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth
It is called Rainbow Bridge because of it's many colors.

Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge
There is a land of meadows hills and  valleys with lush green grass.
When a beloved pet dies they go to this place
There is always food, water, and warm spring weather.
Those old frail animals are young again.
Those who have been maimed are made whole again.

They play all day with each other.
But there is only one thing missing,
They are not with their special person
Who loved them on Earth.

So each day they run and play
until the day comes
when one suddenly stops playing and looks up.
The nose twitches, the ears are up
the eyes are staring...
and this one suddenly runs from the group.

You have been seen
and when you and your special friend meet
you take them in your arms and embrace.
Your face is kissed again and again
And again you look once more into the eyes
of your trusting pet.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together

Until we meet again...

Saving One Little Dog at a Time

Duke

Our sweet boy Duke. He was the most gentle
dog I've ever known. As soon as he and my
little girl, who at the time was 3, saw each
other, they became inseparable.
I've never seen a dog care and love a little girl
as much as Duke loved her. We miss him
terribly. Rest softly boy. We'll see you soon.

Cheyanne

Cheyanne came to us from a shelter and seemed healthy, but died shortly
after being taken into foster care.  She waits for us at the Rainbow Bridge.
We feel wonderful about Cheyanne because she had a wonderful loving home,
with good food, and a soft bed in the last days of her short life.
Sassie

Sassie was a sweet girl who had to be re-homed only because her
human was in bad health and had to be placed in a nursing home
where dogs are not allowed.
Sassie was surrendered to a Humane Society where the Director
promised Sassie's Mom that her sweet girl would not be euthanized.
The Director contacted our rescue and we took in this senior girl
that had heart problems. Sassie lived in her foster home for 9
months before her little heart failed and she went to Rainbow Bridge.
Sassie's Mom is now with her at the Bridge, united by love forever.
Delilah

This sweet girl was found by one of our foster
moms right after being scheduled to be
euthanized at a shelter. She was very tiny and
a very sick little girl. Delilah was given
medications, showered with love and provided
with nutritious food and a comfy soft bed in
which to spend her last days. While we had
hoped she would recover, she did not. Rest in
peace our sweet little Delilah
Dudley

Dudley was a senior owner surrender
and was adopted by a wonderful,
loving family. He was the light of their
lives and he lived like a little Prince
until he passed away.
Dudley is now at Rainbow Bridge,
whole and waiting on the arrival of his
humans who still love and miss him.
Kiki

Kiki was a member of the family before we got involved in
rescue.  
He was a part of our dog rescue, too, because he was our
official "tester". He would test new foster dogs to see if they
got along with cats.  When the fosters did not like cats, we
blocked off part of the house for him so the dogs could not
bother him.  Kiki also had a huge screened patio and pool
that he loved.  He had plants to hide in and graze on, lizards
to chase and squirrels outside the screen in the trees to
stalk.  It's unusual for a cat to be a member of a dog rescue,
but our Kiki had an important role letting us know if new dogs
got along with cats.  
We miss Kiki and know he's healthy and whole now waiting
for us at the Bridge.
Scarlet

Scarlet was the mother of our first Papillon, given
to us by the breeder before we got involved in
rescue.  She was a sweet little girl and loved
everyone.  Most of all she loved food and would
do anything for a treat, including learning to play
a child's piano!
Scarlet was always a happy girl and we loved her
greatly.  The only bad thing about Scarlet is that
her life on earth with us was much too short.
Fly away little butterfly to the Bridge where you'll
be happy and healthy awaiting our arrival.

Punkin

Punkin came to us with special needs. You see he was hearing impaired.
And Punkin's foster mom loved him so much that she adopted him which was
always meant to be because Punkin had already made her his own.

He was already an older pure bred Pomeranian. When he came home with his
Mom she immediately started singing to him. The unconditional love was then set
in stone.

He was great companion and always laid on his mat beside her when she was on
the computer or in the bed beside, her but never until after a half hour of loving.
He trotted like a star beside her on is leash always proud to be wearing the pretty
clothes that was made for him by his Mommy, The neighbors always smiled each
time he rode in the basket on the scooter. Which was always a treat to see that he
gave them joy also.

It is so hard to think about the fact that he's gone. He only wanted for two things, to
love and to be loved. But Punkin is in a wonderful place now and he is whole and
can hear very well again.
He waits lovingly over the Rainbow Bridge for his Mommy to one day join him.

Sleep well precious boy. We love you and miss you, but one day, you'll be
together again.
Ginger

Ginger Snap was a sweet little dachshund girl that was on the list to be euthanized
in a high kill animal shelter. It is believed that a breeder was transporting her and
several other dogs from a breeding facility and their kennel containing several
other dogs fell off the truck. Animal control found 10 dogs near the side of a busy
road with the broken kennel in the ditch. All of the dogs were filthy and scared 4 of
them had already been hit by passing cars and killed. Ginger Snap was rescued
by Papillon Pals Rescue unfortunately for her, too late in her breeding career.
Ginger already had tumors from not being spayed and continuously being bred.
The tumors on her teats were rapidly growing and had already moved into her
lungs, lymph nodes, and around her heart.   Ginger Snap spent a short time in her
foster home being loved and pampered; She will truly be missed even though she
has been adopted into the greatest forever home of all, Heaven.
