This is a charming book which explains the sweet relationship that enriches the lives of people who are pet owners. It also can ease the pain when the relations ends in death.
Validated my feelings September 11, 2005 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
We had to put our beloved Bassett Hound of 12 years to sleep. My two children, especially my 8 year old, had a hard time processing it. Someone recommended this book, along with Dog Heaven as a resource. Although this book is fine for children, I took great comfort in the way it spoke to me. That my "forever friend" is happy and her "angel" helped her to cross over and that she would want us to eventually share our love with another dog, that it would make her happy. When your pet dies, the grief is real, and this validated my feelings and helped me (and my children) process it.
We were blessed with an Angel August 8, 2005 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I received this book moments before our beloved lab passed away. The girls at the vets office knew how hard it was to make the decision, so she handed me the book and told me to read it when I felt ready. I did read it later that day and it helped to release more tears. If you have EVER lost a dog, this beautiful little book says it all. He will be watching over us from heaven, ready to play. Until we see you again....
A loving memorial for a loved pet August 3, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I received this book when my "forever dog", Manilow, died several months ago. I couldn't bear to read it for a few months, so I tucked it away until I knew I would be ready. Don't get me wrong, when I finally did read the book, it brought a fresh round of tears. But it is a very sweet and touching book.
If you are touched by The Rainbow Bridge, this will too December 8, 2004 44 out of 45 found this review helpful
Not everyone understands the loss of a pet can affect you as deeply as losing one of your own children. This book is for the people who 'get' it.
I bought it originally for my husband's mother who lost her beloved dog, but he felt it was too juvenile to send to her. On the contrary, I found it sweet, whimsical and touching. I eventually gave it to a friend who was looking for a greeting card to send to another couple who had recently lost two dogs - They loved it.
It is a small, short book, beautifully illustrated in watercolor and easily read by a wide range of ages. The only dissapointment I felt is that it is basically an expanded story of the Rainbow Bridge, which if you've gone through the pain of losing a pet, and are reading this, you have probably already read it on several websites.
The book however puts it in a format that makes it convenient for giving to someone else instead of sympathy cards, which while there is more selection for pet-loss nowdays, simply don't cover it, or still come across as being written by someone who just doesn't understand what the fuss is about but feels the need to try and comfort the recipient.
