A Letter from the Rainbow Bridge
Hi, Mom, Dad,
Now that Iâve been across The Rainbow Bridge for a couple weeks, they said I should write a letter home. Sorry, Mom but Iâm so busy âacross the bridgeâ that I havenât thought of home much. They said itâs okay and that you would understand. I hope you do. (I think you will.)
Remember that night when I wasnât feeling very well and we were all crying? I donât remember much, but I do remember seeing and hearing all of you and feeling your touches and hugsâŚI remember hearing âwe love youâ and that one last command of âGo throughâ. I didnât know what you meant, so I turned around and walked through the fog that was in front of me. I saw the biggest bridge Iâve ever seen! And so many friends on the other side of it! They were all playing with toys and balls! You were right to tell me to go there!
My feet kept moving forward, but my heart kept pulling me back. Your touches became lighter and lighter and I wanted to come back and nudge your hands for more love, but I was overcome by this feeling of curiosity for the happy place over the bridge! My feet started moving on their own, like a gentle breeze was moving them forward for me! I canât explain it, but I had no doubt that it was the right thing to do!
So, I walked across that big, huge bridge by myself! I looked for you, because youâre always by my side, walking with me, but this was different. I didnât have a collar around my neck or a leash connecting me to you ~ I was âfreeâ! Even though you werenât there with me, I never felt alone! I actually felt like I had a huge cape of love wrapped around my body and the more I walked, the easier it was to breathe! So, I kept walking! And I would feel more warmth in the big hug, so I kept on walking! I eventually made it over the big bridge â I did it by myself, mom. When I got here, all of my new friends greeted me and helped me walk off the bridge ~ it was so cool! They gave me a pair of wings and said that I was now a Guardian Angel!
What Iâve learned over these past few weeks has been amazing and nothing like Iâve seen before! Weâre all the same up here ~ we all have wings and we all have Forever People to watch over ~ thatâs YOU, mom !Youâre my Forever Person and Iâm your Forever Dog! We had such a great life together and I do miss you a LOT, but please know that I am so happy in my new home across The Bridge!
Iâll send you another Earth Angel so you wonât be alone. Give them your whole heart, like you gave it to me. Iâll check in every so often to make sure they treasure your love ~ I always did! When you miss me, think of a rainbow and know Iâm on the other side of it, waiting to walk with you again. Iâll always be in your heart. I love you, mom!
Time for me to go play...
A few weeks ago we lost Dexter. He was so adorable. This was his first bath 10 years ago.
Miss you beautiful boy đžđ
PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA PUPCAKES
For your fur babies
Following up on the article I wrote on Wednesday, here is a recipe I used to make my beautiful Belleâs 10th birthday pupcake. It was a big hit with both my girls.
INGREDIENTS:
Pupcakes
⢠½ cup wholemeal Self raising flour
⢠Ÿ cup smooth natural peanut butter
⢠1 medium banana, mashed
⢠1 egg
⢠2 tbs water
Peanut butter banana Icing
⢠120g lactose free cream cheese
⢠½ cup peanut butter
⢠½ mashed banana
METHOD:
Pupcakes
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Line cupcake tin with paper holders. I make mini pupcakes, so they get lots.
2. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine until smooth.
3. Scoop into the patty papers.
4. Bake for 8-10 minutes for mini ones. If you are doing full sized ones, bake for 15-20 minutes.
Peanut Butter and Banana Icing
1. Mix the peanut butter and cream cheese together.
2. Add the mashed banana and mix until smooth.
3. Spoon into a piping bag and after the pupcakes have cooled, decorate with a cute swirl on top.
4. Enjoy watching your fur baby loving their pupcakes.

NUTRITION AND OUR PETS
Nutrition is the study of how food and drinks affect our bodies and the essential nutrients necessary to support our health. But did you know that nutrition is not only important to humans, it is also important to our pets.
As a mum to two beautiful fur babies, I am always conscious of the foods I buy for them. I donât allow them to eat anything with artificial additives, which a lot of dog treats these day are full of. I only buy them natural treats and yes, they are more expensive. However, I would prefer to spend a little bit more to ensure their health is the best it can be. Our fur babies rely on us to keep them healthy and happy.
Recently, one of my dog grooming customers told me that her fur baby had been very sick. He was eating a lot of grass and vomiting. She was extremely concerned for Pippen. So much so, she thought that Pippen, who is ten and a half years old, was on his way out. She had taken him to the vet where they wanted to do an ultrasound to see why he was vomiting and see if they could control it.
As we spoke, she mentioned how if you touched his belly, he would whimper. This immediately rang bells. I asked what he normally ate and was told dry food and water. So, I made some suggestions.
Change the dry food to one that is grain free, as this was originally developed for dogs with allergies. Also, to add some raw meat as this contains vitamins and minerals. Add some mixed veggies as well. Another thing I do for my girls is give them sardines, this helps with their omegas. I also suggested a doggy yoghurt called dollop. Dollop is high in calcium and protein and acts as a probiotic, which is good for their digestive system.
The owner implemented these things. I saw her eight weeks later and asked how little Pippen was going. She told me, he was like a new dog. He no longer vomits or regurgitates, he has more energy, less gas and also, less hair loss. He is back to his healthy happy self.
So, it is amazing how a dog who obviously was having gut issues and looked like he was on his way out can bounce back to that happy energetic puppy he always was, with just a few small changes to his diet.
As a training nutritionist, I was so happy to have been able to help my little buddy. So, it would seem, Iâm able to not only help humans with their nutritional needs, but also my canine friends.

âItâs Just A Dogâ by Richard A. Biby
From time to time people tell me ârelax, itâs just a dogâ or âitâs a lot of money just for a dog.â They donât understand the distance traveled, the time invested or the costs incurred by âjust a dog.â Some of my proudest moments happened with âjust a dog.â
Many hours passed being my only company âjust a dogâ, but not for a single moment I felt despised. Some of my saddest moments were for âjust a dog,â and on those gray days, the gentle touch of âjust a dogâ gave me the comfort and reason to spend the day.
If you also think âitâs just a dog,â then youâll probably understand phrases like âjust a friend,â âjust a sunrise,â or âjust a promise.â âOnly a dogâ brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust and pure and unbridled joy. âOnly a dogâ brings the compassion and patience that make me a better person.
For âjust a dog,â Iâm getting up early, going for long walks and looking forward to the future. So for me, and for people like me, it is not âjust a dog,â but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the memories of the past and the absolute joy of the moment. âOnly a dogâ brings good in me and diverts my thoughts away from me and the daily worries.
I hope one day you can understand that itâs not âjust a dogâ, but what gives me humanity and prevents me from being âjust a humanâ. So the next time you hear the phrase âjust a dog,â you just smile because you âjust donât understand.â
It seems these days I'm putting up more of these posts.
However as I've been grooming for over 10 years and have been with these beautiful furbabies for a long time, it's understandable.
A couple weeks ago, we lost another pretty Princess.
Daphne I'm going to miss your excitement everyone time I arrived to wash you.
Miss you sweet girl đž you lived a long wonderful life full of love xoxo
Too cute âĄ
