Lassie Place's

in Heaven


You will always live within our hearts

If tears could build a stairway,

and memories were a lane,

I would walk right up to heaven

to bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

no time to say goodbye,

You were gone before I knew it,

and only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness

and secret tears still flow,

What it meant to lose you,

No one will ever know.

Lassie

I treasure the time we had together, you

were my gift of love ,my hope and always

there when I needed a friend. You knew

when to sit quietly beside me and just

listen to me talk.

And when I would cry you knew I needed

a hug and was more then willing to give

it.I will miss you more then life itself

that's for ever.

Thank you Lassie for being my friend !

Lassie's Story

I was born on Nov 30, 1984 it was cold

and dark and we were having thunder

storms,

out side of the big dog house that we

lived in.. Moma was trying to get all of

us as close as she could so we could get

our first milk and get warm , but there

was 16 of us, and it was hard to get all

of us up to her at one time , so we took

turns. I was the last to be born so I had

to wait untill last to get any milk and

bye the time it was my turn there was'nt

very much milk left.. My little brother's

and sister's were always pushing and

walking on me , I guess it was because I

was the runt of the litter, and I was so

little..But that did'nt stop me I would

fight wright back. Our Master's were good

to us we had a light when we needed it and

fresh blankets . Life was really good ,

but I could have used a little bit more

milk and moma new it.. Our Master's

decided to see if they could find someone

to help with us and bottle feed us.. So

they put a aid in the paper that read ,

MOMA NEEDS RELIEF,STANDARD REG. SIX

TRI-COLOR PUPPIES, 16DAYS OLD,

WILL HAVE TO BOTTLE FEED,

$100.Dollars. Well Liz answered

there aid that very day,

she called and said she wonted

the runt of the litter , it would take her

awhile to get there because she lived

about 250miles away , well it took her

about 4hours to get here. I was scared

because I heard the master's say she

wont's the little one, well I was the

little one. She picked me up and loved me

to her face and neck and told me my name

was Lassie. I was in love with my new

master,my new moma, we stoped on the way

home and got me a bottle and some bitch

milk, I thought I was going to bust I

drinked so much. I stayed in the house

beside her bed or where ever she was at,

when I got hunger she would feed me , I

would sit up in her lap and hold the

bottle with my two front paw's , it was

good stuff. Then she would take me outside

to use the bathroom. We had a 2500 gal.

fish pond in out back yard. I was about

3years old and I love to lay

on the rocks next to the water because it

was cool and I could watch the fish swim

bye. There was this big yellow one that

would come to the top not far from where

my face was and he would splash water at

me. He would do this about everyday .

This one day I was

laying there and this yellow

fish done his thing and I slaped at him ,

missed him of course and of all the things

to happen I fail in the fish pond, I

hurried out so moma wouldn't know I had

been in her pond. Let me tell you that was

the end of my fishing days. Life was very

good and I had a

lot of love growing up, I went

ever were my moma went , some days we

fixed fence, some days we moved cows and

ever day we would go feed the chickens and

get the eggs , that was a lot of fun

because she would drop one and say eat it

lassie it's ok..I learned how to open the

gates with my front paw when I wonted out

of the yard so I could follow her , moma

used to get mad at me for that , but she

needed me , and she found that out. We

went to the chicken house one evening to

get the eggs and water and feed, but I

heard this strange noise in there so I got

in front of her and wouldn't let her in

the door, she told me to get out of the

way , but I wouldn't move, she said what's

wrong with you Lassie, is there something

in there? I made a low growl to tell her

yes, she said ok you first , it was a

rattersnake , I stood my ground and stayed

out of his reach till daddy got there with

the gun, good dog Lassie we killed him..

There were many days we would run into

snakes and I would tell them and they

would kill them.. I dont know how many

times I have saved someone life.. I was

getting older now about 13years and I

did'nt move very fast and I was having a

little hearing problem, so moma decided

that I needed to stay in the yard when she

would go and do chores, But I said no, I'm

going and I did. We were fixing fence that

day on the back forty , I always road in

the front seat with moma and that day

wasn't any different , she helped me in

the pickup and helped me out. I was just

being my

normal self being noisey and trying to

watch out for her , I heard the

rattlersnake before she did ,so I got in

front of her and he hit me in the neck ,

it was hot and it burned. Moma killed the

snake , put me in the pickup and took me

to the vet, but it was to late I had

died..I had to do this I had to save her

life one more time. My moma cryed and

cryed and buried me in the back yard next

to a friend {Bubbles} of mine.. I have a

hand painted head

stone that's made out of rock

and it is very pretty. I can still watch

over moma..I miss her very much and I know

she misses me and I know she loves me and

always will..Because we were very close.

I am in Rainbow

Bridge now, with

all the other friends of mine , a

place were there is running water and

fresh food and rolling hills and green

meadows...

Poem for Dog Lovers

Hello. I've been expecting you for quite some time. Here, come sit beside us for awhile . and let me tell you about this old friend of mine. She might look tattered or maybe old But I won't say goodbye until you've been told. She had the brightest eyes I had ever seen, And wore a beautiful fur coat that would out shine a queen . She was never prissy but walked with an aire ...... And oh so polite, you could take her most anywhere. She could run like the wind and could catch anything she chased But she protected and sat with me when I had problems to face. You could not find a friend nearly so dear. Because no matter the trouble she always stayed near... She has never asked for much from me; Just to love and respect her and I think you'll agree . To give her a good meal plus a nice warm bed is not much to ask ; When she has given me all her love and to her this was no task. Now I understand you have a schedule to keep. But I have a small favor before she nods off to sleep. Please fold your wings around her and let her feel young while in no pain ; Dear Guardian Angel of Pets , please keep her safe and happy until I see her again.

" DOGS IN HEAVEN "

An old man and his dog were

walking down this dirt road with fences

on both sides, they came to a gate

in the fence and looked in, it was nice

- grassy, woody areas, just what a

'huntin' dog and man would like, but,

it had a sign saying 'no

trespassing' so they walked on. They came

to a

beautiful gate with a person in

white robes standing there. "Welcome to

Heaven" he said. The old man was

happy and started in with his dog

following him. The gatekeeper

stopped him. "Dogs aren't allowed, I'm

sorry but he can't come with you."

"What kind of Heaven won't allow

dogs? If He can't come in, then I

will stay out with him. He's been

my faithful companion all his

life, I can't desert him now." "Suit

yourself, but I have to warn you,

the Devil's on this road and he'll try

to sweet talk you into his area,

he'll promise you anything, but, the dog

can't go there either. If you

won't leave the dog, you'll spend

Eternity

on this road." So the old man

and dog went on. They came to a

rundown fence with a gap in it, no

gate, just a hole. Another old man

was inside. "Scuse me Sir, my dog

and I are getting mighty tired, mind if

we come in and sit in the shade

for awhile?" "Of course, there's some

cold water under that tree over

there. Make yourselves comfortable"

"You're sure my dog can come in?

The man down the road said dogs

weren't allowed anywhere." "Would

you come in if you had to leave the

dog?" "No sir, that's why I

didn't go to Heaven, he said the dog

couldn't come in. We'll be spending

Eternity on this road, and a glass

of cold water and some shade

would be mighty fine right about now.

But, I won't come in if my buddy

here can't come too, and that's final."

The man smiled a big smile and

said "Welcome to Heaven." "You

mean this is Heaven? Dogs ARE

allowed? How come that fellow

down the road said they weren't?"

"That was the Devil and he gets all

the people who are willing to

give up a life long companion for a

comfortable place to stay. They

soon find out their mistake, but, then

it's too late. The dogs come here,

the fickle people stay there. GOD

wouldn't allow dogs to be banned

from Heaven. After all, HE

created them to be man's companions

in life, why would he separate them

in death?"

" I ONLY WANTED YOU "

They say memories

are golden

well maybe that is true.

I never wanted memories,

I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,

a million times I cried.

If love alone could have saved you

you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,

In death I love you still.

In my heart you hold a place

no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway

and heartache make a lane,

I'd walk the path to heaven

and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,

and nothing seems the same.

But as God calls us one by one,

the chain will link again.

" Rainbow Bridge "

There is a bridge connecting Heaven and

Earth. It is called the Rainbow bridge

because of its many colors. Just this

side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a

land

of meadows, hills and valleys with lush

green grass.

When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to

this place. There is always food and

water and warm spring weather. The old

and frail animals are young again.

Those who are maimed are made whole

again. They play all day with each

other.

There is only one thing missing. They

are not with their special person who

loved them on Earth. So each day they

run and play until the day comes when

one suddenly stops playing and looks up!

The nose twitches! The ears are up!

The eyes are staring! And this one

suddenly runs from the group!

You have been seen, and when you and your

special friend meet, you take him or

her in your arms and embrace. Your face

is kissed again and again and again

and you look once more into the eyes of

your trusting pet.

Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge

together, never again to be separated...
