Timmy

Timmy was my first poodle.

I bought Timmy at a pet shop. I didn't know then what I know about health testing and puppy mills. All I knew is that I wanted a toy poodle so desperately I could taste it.

Timmy was the love of my life. It broke my heart to leave him behind when I moved to Australia but I couldn't put him through the lengthy quarantine at the time. He loved my father and was happy to stay with mom and dad in Greece.

Timmy died at 13 from congestive heart failure. He is now keeping my dad company as they wait for us to join them.

Zac
Pantone Picture Perfect

Zac was born on November 6, 2004. He was Montana's litter brother. He stayed with us till he was 16 weeks old then flew to Hawaii to live with Gloria and Glenn who gave him the best home a dog could ever want and who loved him with all their hearts.

In April 2007 Glenn was going for a drive with Zac, both were wearing their seatbelts, but a car plowed into their car smashing in the side of the car where Zac was sitting. Zac died of massive head injuries. We were all devastated by his loss...

Thank you Gloria and Glenn for loving my boy.

The Rainbow Bridge

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....

The Dance
(sung by Garth Brooks)

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now, I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment, wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say, you know I might have changed it all

And now, I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain,
but I'd have had to miss the dance
