Rainbow Bridge Memories

This page is dedicated in loving memory to the MNSR alumni who found their forever families and are now waiting for us at the Bridge. 

Rainbow Bridge Stories

Blue quickly convinced her foster family that she was meant to stay. She always came running whenever she heard anyone using the ice machine on the refrigerator, eagerly awaiting her ice cube. She loved to watch TV on dad’s lap, and lie in mom’s arms for ear scratches and leg stretches. Every morning she had to make a couple of laps through the house as fast as she could go.

It was love at first sight when Nisse first laid eyes on her new mom and dad and the feeling was mutual. Nisse loved every minute of being outside, chasing squirrels, and supervising all yard activities. She was the sweetest pup, who enjoyed as many tummy scratches as she could get! How thankful and lucky we were to have Nisse in our lives. She was a constant source of joy and love, and a great big sister to her little humans. 

Just 23 days after her brother Tukker became an angel, Shelby, too, opened her angel wings. Their family adopts the Shelties who need them most, and we are so grateful to them for welcoming Shelby into their hearts.

Ian

Our sweet Ian left my arms for the last time. We were so bonded to each other. He said to me it is time to say goodbye. Ian came to us years ago. Mn Shelties Rescue saved him from a puppy mill. He lived and slept in the dirt. A hand never touched him. He came to us very scared. He was very curious about everything. He liked dog beds, eating, running in the grass, and going to the MNSR reunion. He had a strict schedule he lived by. I never had to look at a clock.
