Rainbow Bridge


I have lost my beautiful Tasha...she was my last remaining living Champion in my home....She arrived in a winter storm, Jan 8 1995 and she left me in a winter storm Feb 25 2007. She gradually faded in my arms...in a cold house, no heat...by the flickering light of a candle since I had lost power in the storm...I sat with her head in my lap and finally just go so cold I had to leave her and go curl up under the blankets..Did she wait for that time? I woke suddenly to hear the sound of the two newfs Jenna and Phoenix rushing to the dining room, where Tasha lay.. by the time I got there, she was gone. My beautiful Tasha..Now my life is different and there are only the three dogs to feed, to let out, to care for...to love. You can read more about her by clicking on the Title...I just cant write any more, I cant bear it right now.
