Rainbow Bridge

I had hoped never to have to use this page, unfortunately that is not to be.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Gentil Paul

the most beautiful and kind horse I have ever known.  Paul was saved from the slaughter house on Boxing Day of 2007 due to the generosity of our members, he was brought to Bank End on 5th February 2008.  Sadly Paul was diagnosed with advanced bone cancer on 4th April 2008 and was put to sleep on Monday 7th April.  Paul's ashes will be returned to us and will be scattered over the fields at our new yard. Forever with your friends, run free  Gentil Paul, gentle by name and gentle by nature. You will always be in our hearts big man.
