Paw Prints on My Soul.

One of my cousins just sent me this. It made me cry because two of the Sheperds look just like my Queenie and my Marnie who crosses the Rainbow Bridge. Queenie in 1985 and Marnie in 1991.

My Dad got a GSD puppy for my sister, and I when I was four. Except for mourning periods, when one would cross the Rainbow Bridge, I have not been without one since. Dakota is my current buddy. It is wonderful to know they are special to your heart too.

when they cross the Rainbow Bridge is so true. I am so sorry for your losses. I still miss the five of mine who passed on years ago.
