Tessa was a beutiful German Shepherd that I had from the RSPCA , I only went there for a look as I had just lost my other dog Cassie to old age...I was determined not to have another dog ,it hurts too much when you lose them..But I spotted Tessa...they had called her Daisy then ,she had been rescued from being tied to a barbed wire fence,she must have tried to get away and the barb had tore her shoulder and hip.. She was in a terrible state,thin and even her spine was showing through...I cried seeing her like that and asked if I could have her..after 3 weeks I could and she came home ,she would cower in the corner like as if she had been beaten...considerating she was starved she ate so daintily,scared I think..I dont think she had ever been for a walk...
I had Tessa for 7 years,I think she might have been 10, but not sure...She went blind in her last year..she never did fully recover from her nervousness...This angers me ...how people are so cruel.
I had a few years of her becoming a beautiful dog, she walked beside me perfectly,never looked for fights..a beautiful dog..
I said again I wouldnt have another dog,but when Tessa went I had another...she's lying at my feet here now...Millie a unwanted German Shepherd again....a white one .

Many people wonder
What we will see when we die
An Angel, Our Loved ones, The grim reaper!
The truth is we see no one
A trail of Flower Petal's lead the way
We follow them
In a nice but strange daze
Getting stronger, happier, even younger!
Each step we take
It takes us through forests of sweet smelling pine.
Through Gardens of Beautifull flowers that ease the mind
Past a beautifull sunset over the sea
Through a beautifull stars and moon scene
Until we get to the gate we hear an Angel call
Right this way!
We walk on
Then our Loved ones we do hear
Saying Come on ! come on! its getting near
Then the doors open
The journey has made you You again!
So now step through and be free
X You have earned it dear one for being so Loving to me X

Rainbow
by Graham & Marion Newcombe-Withers
The sun is shining,
Rain is falling too,
Then suddenly colours appear,
A rainbow comes into view.
It's archway of many colours,
Is spirits healing ray,
And also the doorway to heaven,
Where spirits of animals play.
So when you see a rainbow,
Be happy and not sad,
Just think of all the fun and happiness,
You and your best friend had.

Magic Of A Rainbow
I'll never see a rainbow
That I won't think of you;
Though days seem bleak and dreary
The sun is shining through.
A symbol of God's love fulfilled
In beauty, hope and grace;
A rainbow is a mirror
Reflecting His own face.
It arches o'er the mountains
With Heaven its domain;
Its brilliant colors wakened by
The grayness and the rain.
Now may I see the rainbows sent
To ease my broken heart,
Promising His healing love,
Shine through when teardrops start.
Miraculous, magical rainbows,
Blessing the sadness with peace;
God gently smiling and touching,
Bidding the sadness cease.

~ Immeasurable (by Sean Ashcroft) ~
Laughter will still sound,
even though you’re gone.
But the decibels will dip,
with some smiles, painted on.
Hopes will still soar,
dreams float on high.
But the altitude will drop,
as will the supply.
Passion will still drive us,
desire wave us off.
But the revs will decline
and the engine might cough.
Time will be bejewelled,
lives lit by waltzing light.
But the carats will diminish,
its brilliance a lesser sight.
Yet memories have no volume,
love no mass nor weight.
These will broaden, widen, deepen,
a true measure of something great.

They're Only Ours for a Little While
We humans are prone to chase rainbows,
always wanting that pot of gold.
But the wisest of us remember the joy,
of just a small creature to hold.
Allow yourself to accept their great gift,
and know what devotion is worth.
If you've been loved by a dog or cat,
you're the richest person on earth.
But their lives are lived in miniature-
bright sun to palest moon.
They bless our days with innocence,
and faithfulness that's stilled too soon.
These precious lives are fragile,
as fleeting as a baby's smile.
So give them all the love you have,
they're only ours for a little while.
And in the lonely moments,
when you pause to wonder why.
Hold close those brightest shooting stars,
that burn so briefly in our sky.
But then look deeper in your heart,
to know all love must intertwine.
And when the night sky seems the darkest,
you'll see their light forever shine.

♥ I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.
♥ I asked God for a tree, He gave me a forest.
♥ I asked God for a river, He gave me an ocean.
♥ I asked God for the world, He gave me you.
♥ My heart is lost to you, always and forever.
A DOGGIE PRAYER♥♥♥
So do not grieve for me,
my friend As I am with my kind.♥
My collar is a rainbow's hue
My leash is a shooting star ♥
My boundaries are the milky way
Where I sparkle from afar. ♥
There are no pens or kennels here
For I am not confined ♥
But free to roam God's heavens
Among my shepherd kind.♥
I nap the day on a snowy cloud
And gentle breezes are rocking me ♥
I dream the dreams of earthling
And how it used to be.♥
The trees are full of liver treats
And tennis balls abound ♥
And milk bones line the walking ways
Just waiting to be found. ♥
There even is a ring set up
The grass all lush and green ♥
And everyone who gaits around
Becomes the "Best Of Breed". ♥
For we're all winners in this place
We have no faults you see ♥
And God passes out the ribbons
To each one--even me. ♥
I drink from waters laced with gold
My world a beauty to behold ♥
And wise old dogs do form my pride
To amble at my very side.♥
At night I sleep in an angel's arms
Her wings protecting me ♥
And moonbeams dance about us
As stardust falls on thee. ♥
So when your life on earth is spent
And you reach heaven's gate ♥
Have no fear of loneliness
For here, you know I wait. ♥

Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

A letter from your pet in heaven
Author Unknown
To my dearest family,
some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from the Bridge.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears of sadness.
Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said, "I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family,
They'll be here later on."
God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...
in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry:
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there were some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...
that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along
I made somebody smile.
God says: "If you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street
with me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind."
"And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me."
