Our Special Needs Puppy Mill Rescue Shih Tzu~ when
no one would take her ...I did.
She is spayed and is not a breeder~ Of Coarse~
Bunny was our Foster Shih Tzu,She is a real sweet dog! She is 3
legged as her mom chewed her leg and her tail off at birth in the
puppy mill where she was born, we have had Bunny several years
now and plan on keeping her.
She has been to the vet and had her rabies~ we learned she has heart
disease.
She seems just cozy to sleep and be quiet most of the day , with an
occasionally "hop around the yard~ The current plan is for her to
spend her remaining days with my clan of Hobbits , elves and dwarfs,
here at the Shire. She loves to play on the bed and chase your hand
under the covers~Bunny is doing great she likes to stay to herself
but sometimes I catch her playing a bit with Frodo...
UPDATE 12/07~ Bunny is getting sicker with her
Heart Murmer and general health. We will continue to keep her as
comfortable as possible.
Tender Heart
A Poem in honor of Bunny
I greet each
day inside my cage
And wait for God to write my page
I wonder if you’ll come today?
And let me feel the light of day
My whole life has been dark with pain
And those who caused it--what did they gain?
They stole my trust, my livelihood
And all because they simply could
I yearn to run through scented fields
Without a cage and lock to yield
To chase a squirrel that can't be caught
To earn a love that can't be bought
But the darkest days have a light
In the quiet mornings that follow night
You come to visit every day
Without a motive, without a pay
You carried me when I was weak
Brought trust I was too pained to seek
You healed my wounds that took their toll
You rescued my slowly dying soul
And now I listen for your voice
Knowing that you're here by choice
You didn’t know me at the start
And yet I’m planted in your heart
I’m learning to accept your praise
And not avert my fearful gaze
Forgive me if I cower still
My life has been against my will
I feel that you are growing tired
Within this fight that you’ve been mired
If you can keep your doubts at bay
It would mean the world if you could stay
I can’t predict how this will end
But I know this of you, my friend
You selflessly all played your part
You saved me with your tender heart
This sweet little 3 legged girl has won our heart!
Bunny has found her forever home, here at the Shire!

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.... |
