Mortimer was such an amazing dog. He scored big time when he met the Kennedy family. During the 2016 World Series, he gained an amazing home where he received the new name Rizzo! He was a total love and a devoted Cubs fan of course! Rizzo gained an amazing family that showered him with the love he deserved.

Rizz crossed the rainbow bridge, finally free of his failing kidneys. He fought valiantly for almost 3 years following his diagnosis. He had a great quality of life until the very end, going for walks and playing until the very last day.

From his family, “I wish we could have had more time with Rizz, because he was just the perfect companion. The excruciating emptiness in our home and my heart is a constant reminder of just how much we loved him.

Thank you so much for helping us find each other. We are forever grateful!”

Run free sweet Rizzo! Our thoughts are with the Kennedy Family. You are forever part of the BWR family.

A Message from the Rainbow Bridge
Dear Mom and Dad,
Having spent a couple of weeks on the other side of The Rainbow Bridge, I thought I should send you a letter. I apologize, Mom, but I’ve been so tied up ‘across the bridge’ that thoughts of home haven't crossed my mind much. They reassured me that it's okay and that you’d understand. I truly believe you will.
Do you remember that night when I wasn’t feeling great and emotions were running high? While my memories are hazy, I clearly recall seeing and hearing all of you, feeling your gentle touches and warm embraces... I remember hearing “we love you” and that last instruction of “Go through.” I wasn’t sure what you meant, so I turned and walked into the mist that lay before me. Before me stood the most incredible bridge I had ever seen! And my friends awaited on the other side, all playing with toys and balls! You were right to encourage me to cross!
Though my paws moved forward, my heart felt the tug of home. Your touches faded gradually, and I longed to return and seek more of your affection, yet I was overcome by an irresistible draw to this joyful place across the bridge! My feet propelled forward as if guided by a gentle gust! I can’t quite put it into words, but I knew without hesitation that I was meant to go!
So, I crossed that magnificent bridge all by myself! I looked around for you, as you’re always alongside me, but this experience was unlike any other. There was no collar around my neck or leash attaching me to you ~ I was totally ‘free’! Even without your presence, I felt a profound sense of companionship! It was as if I had a great cloak of love enveloping me, and with each step, my breath became easier! So, I continued onward! The warmth of that embrace grew stronger, urging me onward! I finally reached the other side of the grand bridge – I accomplished it alone, Mom. Upon my arrival, all my new friends welcomed me and assisted me in stepping off the bridge ~ it was amazing! They gifted me a pair of wings and told me I was now a Guardian Angel!
The things I’ve discovered in these past weeks have been astounding and beyond anything I ever imagined! Here, we’re all united ~ we all possess wings and we all have Forever People to watch over ~ that means YOU, Mom! You’re my Forever Person, and I’m your Forever Dog! Our time together was truly special, and I miss you immensely, but rest assured that I am brimming with happiness in my new home across The Bridge!
I’ll send you another Earth Angel to keep you company. Shower them with the same love you gave me. I’ll check in from time to time to ensure they cherish your affection ~ I always did! When you find yourself missing me, picture a rainbow and know that I’m on the other side, eagerly waiting to walk with you once more. I’ll forever reside in your heart. Love you, Mom!

💔 Heartbreaking to learn that the Rainbow Bridge in North Carolina was washed away with the floods.

🌈 The Rainbow Bridge is located at the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge in North Carolina. Specifically, it's part of the Flowering Bridge garden that spans the Rocky Broad River, connecting Lake Lure and Chimney Rock.

🐶 The Rainbow Bridge is a special section within the garden where visitors can leave collars, tags, and other mementos to honor and remember their beloved pets who have passed away.

Thank you to the Asada Girls for their kindness! They held an end of summer lemonade and snow cone stand and donated all their proceeds to BWR! Your generous donation will go to the medical fund to help other dogs like Parker get medical treatment before going to their forever homes!

Bow Wow Revolution has an announcement! This little cutie was part of a rescue from a breeder. 16 dogs were pulled, and that included our little Butterscotch. Butterscotch’s name comes from a friend of Bow Wow, 11 year old Miss McKenna. Now, Butterscotch needs time with her humans for medical tests and to decompress. Once we feel she is ready for adoption, we will post for applications. Please see her details below and help us welcome Butterscotch to her new and pain free life of love and happiness. We will be posting videos so that we document what dogs go through after their bodies are abused for breeding. She can barely walk as she has experienced little time outside of a crate. Butterscotch Details: Cavalier Poodle 2 years old. Current weight is at 8lbs. She is shy. She loves other dogs. I will be testing her with cats shortly. She is a cream and soft taupe color. Almost a pinkish hue. And yes. She is that cute in person! Welcome Butterscotch! And again! We are seeking fosters to help out other animals in need of a home. Please email Bow Wow and we can send you an application. All supplues are privided by the rescue.

Lulu is an 8 yo chihuahua mix who found her way to Bow Wow Revolution to find a new home that will give her the love and attention she craves. We call her the one eyed wonder but are not sure how she lost her eye. We do know it doesn't slow her down and she loves to walk, play fetch and hang with our calm resident dog. She is great on leash. She loves to be by her people or our resident dog so she would do best in a home where her person works from home or short hours. She also does well in the company of a calm dog. She is super smart and picked up on our routine very quickly. She let's you know when she has to go out and has had no accidents in the house. She has full access to the house, no crate needed, when we are at home or gone. She loves to sleep under the covers and then wakes you up with lots of kisses. She needs a little TLC for her skin as she has had some allergies but recently changed her food and that has helped. LuLu is a great dog and deserves a family and home that will be her forever.
