Rainbow Bridge Stories
 Little Doolittle came to me scared and shy, with bad shoulders from living in a kennel 24/7 for the first 7 years of his life! He leaned against my leg with his foot on my foot and we bonded from there. We got him healthy and strong and he lived large! He was such a kind, gentle and accepting soul; he loved everyone. All my customers at work fell in love with him. He had quite the fan base! When we considered adopting a second Sheltie, I told Doolittle we wanted to give her a chance at a good life like we did for him. I told him he wasn't being pushed aside and he would always get first pet, first kiss, first treat and first love. He gave me 3 kisses and I took that as a Yes. He gave Dori her space to adjust and then took her under his wing and showed her how to be a Sheltie! He was the best big brother ever! Thanks to MNSR I had the most beautiful soul I've ever had the good fortune of being with! Doolittle was my sun, my moon, my world and my universe! June 8, 2017 |
 After fending for himself on his own, Dexter was so happy to become the pampered dog of a couple who adored animals. Dexter enjoyed watching over his large fenced yard, sounding the bark alert, and caring for his feline siblings. Due to the very good care from his family, Dexter had good quality of life while living with health issues for several years. He is deeply missed. June 1, 2017 |
 Laddie came into rescue with his best friend Lassie, and we were so happy for them when they found a forever home where they could stay together. They loved spending time with their family, going for walks and car rides. Visitors also were lavished with affection. The yard was well-guarded and passers-by were greeted with an enthusiastic round of barking. Adopting them was one of the best decisions we made. Laddie crossed the Rainbow Bridge in June 2017 and is now forever united with his Lassie girl, who followed him there in December. |
 Ajay was a happy, active boy who was thrilled to have all the love and attention from his wonderful family. Ajay was especially happy when he was at the cabin with them and could go fishing with his dad. When his dad passed, Ajay was a great comfort to his mom. Ajay is now back in his dad's arms at the Rainbow Bridge. May 30, 2017 |
