TobyRatz was a Jack Russle. He died age 14yrs of a heart condition. RIP Tobyratz my beautiful baby boy.
Do not stand by my ashes and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on the snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled light
I am the soft star that shines at night
Do not stand by my ashes and cry
I am not there; I did not die
Tobyjoe Reunited with his Grandad.

I found a penny today'
just lying on the ground
but it's not just a penny
this little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven
thats what my Grandpa told me
he said Angels toss them down
oh how I loved that story.
He said when an Angel misses you
they toss a penny down
sometimes just to cheer you up
to make a smile out of your frown
so don't pass by that penny
when you're feeling blue
it may be a penny from heaven
that an Angel's tossed to you.xxx
wishing you peace this christmas at the rainbow bridge, and that your family have the strength to live another year without you, but always in their hearts xxx
On your angel day xx
We think about you always,
we talk about you still,
you have never been forgotten,
and you never will.
We hold you close within our hearts,
and there you will remain,
to walk with us throughout our lives
until we meet again.

“A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.”
valentines is not just for people, its for all of those animals who have touched our lives and our hearts. Those we still love so dearly, and who undoubtedly still love us.
Thinking of our very special friends today and always with love & fondest memories ~~X~~
TOBYRATZ.
The nights are long I cannot sleep
I close my eyes and start to weep
The memories of you they linger on
I can't believe that now you've gone.
The dawn comes up and I awake
My eyes are red, my hands they shake
As I reach down to pat your head
It's then I realise that you are dead.
You were my sun, my life, my joy
God be with you my boy.
The heaven I know awaits with care
when I'm dead I'll join you there.
We'll walk again, you by my side
My heart will swell and burst with Pride
A team again just you and I
Please forgive me while I cry.
So sleep in peace my dear best friend
It's just a pause but not the end
A last Big hug and tears I shed.
The day has Come I knew I'd dread.
When a pet dies, that special place in our hearts feels so empty...
But we realize, as time passes, that animals have a way of teaching us about loving, about loyalty, joy, and friendship...
And whatever we’ve shared in their presence can never really be lost.
I know what you're thinking. You think I'm dead. Because you cannot see me with your human eye, cannot feel me with your hands or hold me in your arms, you think I am gone forever.
You recall how I looked when I left this place, and you cannot remotely imagine that I could possibly be alive in another place. You are racked and torn by the pain of our separation and it blinds you to that which is right in front of you... me..............
I'm here to tell you different. You were worthy of my love and undying devotion on earth as I of yours. Do you really believe this love would be snatched from us forever by a loving Creator simply because I wasn't human? Was I not a living, breathing creation with personality? How could I have been so if I didn't possess the energy of soul, spirit and loving light? And if this energy is and always will be, then how can it be that I am dead?
.................
You say that all you have left are memories. Not so. You see, when I took leave of my earthly body I left a little something behind for you. You can't touch it, hold it or examine it for what I left behind is far too uninhibited for confinement. I left behind a piece of my soul. I placed it right next to your own which is quite fitting as we were always side by side in our earthly life together. I love you too much to have left you with nothing but memories, which tend to fade and grow cloudy as the years go by.
I love you too much to have vanished without a trace. How selfish it would be of me to remove love and light from your life.
.............
I understand your tears, each one you shed is testament to your love for me and I am honored and humbled. But don't forget the good things we shared - remember and smile. This is an honor for me as well. And when you need me I will be here. Close your eyes, relax, take slow, deep breaths and picture me in your mind. Shut off the world and your notions of what death is and give me a chance. Look for the subtle signs I send you. Don't stop being proud of me, I am a friend to be proud of, I am still your friend and soul mate.
Don't memorialize the death of my body but instead honor and celebrate my never-ending life for it is eternal and forever as is my love for you.
Until we meet again...

(Passage from UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN)
A Tribute to your pet dog
When God had made the earth and sky
the flowers and the trees,
He then made all the animals
the fish, the birds and bees.
And when at last He'd finished
not one was quite the same.
He said, "I'll walk this world of mine
and give each one a name."
And so He traveled far and wide
and everywhere He went,
a little creature followed Him
until it's strength was spent.
When all were named upon the earth
and in the sky and sea,
the little creature said,
"Dear Lord,there's not one left for me."
Kindly the Father said to him
"I've left you to the end
I've turned my own name back to front
and called you dog, My friend
I know you said that you could never go through that again,
I know you said
You couldn't stand the heartache and the pain.
I know you said
No other dog could take your best friend's place,
You said it so sincerely,
With such sadness in your face.
Please think again my dog-loving friend,
Sadly you had to part.
But he still walks beside you
In your mind and in your heart.
I know that you'd feel that you let him down,
If you found another friend
For you had cried your heart out,
When your hero faced the end.
I know if he could speak to you,
He'd tell you what to do.
He'd say 'somewhere a lonely dog
Needs someone good like you'.
I know that he would mention
That he loved you all his days
And he'd thank you for just being you,
With your dog loving ways.
And I know that he would tell you
Not to carry on alone,
To accept the fact that he is gone,
And give another dog a home.
He'd tell you that he'd watch over you
And guide you as you go
And your life will be filled with sunshine again,
You'll walk in a wonderful glow.
He'd tell you he was happy still,
That his living was not in vain,
Then he'd go off and wait at Heaven's Gate,
Until you meet again.
