Rainbow Bridge Memories

This page is dedicated in loving memory to the MNSR foster and adopted Shelties who are waiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge. 

Rainbow Bridge Stories

Coda was adopted by a wonderful man who loved him dearly, but when Coda returned to his foster family a second time due to unforeseen circumstances, they found that they just couldn't part with him again. Coda loved food, hugs, kisses, and petting, and in his younger days, lots of playtime at the dog park to help channel his high energy. Coda crossed the Rainbow Bridge peacefully on October 3rd, 2019 after having a wonderful day of playing, and he is greatly missed.

Maisie spent much of her early life outside, and while she still enjoyed lying on the deck in the sunshine and watching the world go by, she mostly wanted to be wherever her mom was. Maisie was so smart that she learned from her mom how to be quiet on cue! They found each other at the perfect time and became best pals. She was a nice little girl who was happy to have a home where she spent most of her time indoors and got lots of snack carrots. Maisie crossed the Rainbow Bridge in October, 2019. All of my dogs live in my heart forever. I miss that little girl and would gladly foster or adopt another senior.

Smokey was so happy to join a loving family and soon found a best friend in Sheltie brother Bandit. Smokey very much enjoyed his daily games of fetch with his humans, hopping with excitement on all fours like a bunny, and played in the sprinkle on warm summer days. Smokey and Bandit loved to soak up the sun and were always together. As Smokey began to lose his hearing, Bandit would let him know when it was time to bark or to rally to greet visitors. Smokey crossed the Rainbow Bridge in September 2019. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have Smokey join our family. He brought us so much joy, and our world is not the same without him.

Belle was part of a large group of Shelties in need who came to MNSR. Her charm and exquisite beauty quickly landed her a wonderful forever home with a Sheltie-experienced family and Sheltie siblings. Belle's favorite things were her mom, walks, stuffed animals and being at the lake. She loved to kayak with mom, falling asleep from the slight rocking of the boat. Belle crossed the Rainbow Bridge on September 20th, rejoining her Sheltie brother Tucker at the Rainbow Bridge.
