To our Mirra,
When Christina saw you for the first time she says she fell in love with you. While all your brothers and sisters were of average size and weight you were the tiniest. But she saw in you the spirit that carried you these last two years. You out smarted your siblings for all the kibble you could get and thats why she chose you. You would not give up and you took what you needed to survive. When you came to us you were so small and fragile I didn't think you would survive. But you did. You grew to the mini of minis. Six pounds eight ounces of the funniest little dog. Your personality made us laugh every single day. If you weren't barking at the shadows you were by our side. Protecting us was your calling. Especially when you heard the stranger at the door trying to get into the house. Had it not been for your keen sense of hearing who know what would have happened. Instead the police arrested a stranger with bad intentions. Although it took some time for you to except new people, when you did you loved them and showered them with affection. As if you were saying welcome to "my" family. That's probably why I loved so. You had the soul of a giant. I carried you in my robe pocket while we nurtured you to health. You would sleep with me and wake me when it got to late in the morning. And if it was too early, you would call us back as if saying, "hey its too early, come back to bed. Ten more minutes". Or, when it was time for you to go to bed you would tunnel under the blankets or my shirt. We will miss your cooing little growls when you were hungry, thirsty or just wanted to play. I will miss seeing you bounding through the back yard chasing the squirrels who seemed bigger than you. I will miss our 9pm walks through the park courtyard where I could unleash you so you could run with Milla the lab. When I thought you were untrainable you were just starting to come to your own. Understanding that I was trying to protect you and thats why I had those commands. I will miss you sitting on the couch watching the people in the park. Growling at strangers and barking at our neighbors. Your little tale wagging at the highest RPM's. "Lets go daddy there goes that lady and her corgi. Or "theres that man with the chihuahas. I think I'm actually bigger than them". Our heart breaks for you because you were so young. You had so much to give and not enough time to share it all. But, what you gave to us will never be replaced. its only been one day but I know that you were that one dog. That one special dog that will never be forgotten. I hope God has a special place for you because you deserve it. We miss you so much. Mommy, Daddy, Megan and Milla |

Hey little girl,
I woke up this morning and felt for you like I always did before rolling out of bed. You weren't there and I sighed. I was looking out the kitchen window and was expecting to see you in your usual spot. Chasing flies, shadows, falling leaves and barking at the passing squirrels. I guess I just blanked out for a moment because I was just about to call your name and, well I know your not here anymore. Mommy misses you so much. She would rather be at work than be here without you. I feel the same. Unfortunately I work at home and don't have an office to go to. I keep looking at the pictures of you two. You brought her so much joy. She truly loved you. The funny thing is that I wasn't jelous of that because I loved you to. We talk about you and the crazy things you would do. Stealing my socks and chewing holes into them. I would get so mad when on business trips I would pull out a pair of socks from my lugguge, slip them on only to find holes in the toes. We talk about you in order to get our feelings out but end up in tears because we know we will never see you again. We miss you Daddy |

That picture of her is really cute what a little doll she was. It is easy to see how you could fall so much in love with her. I am just so sorry she had to leave you at a young age. Yes talking about them sometimes brings on the tears but it really will help in the healing. Mirra is looking over you even when you can't see her. God did give her a special place and you will be with her again. I know that does nothing to stop the pain right now but without that hope where would we all be?

What adorable pictures of precious Mirra!
 I really enjoyed reading your memories. I could just imagine you pulling out socks on a business trip and finding her little reminders for you, in the form of holes in your socks! I am SO, SO sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family, Cheri -------------------- Rachael Ann

What wonderful pictures of your dear sweet baby.
Your tribute to her is so touching and shows so well her wonderful personality. Such a precious, dainty, beautiful and courageous little baby. And yes, I am sure that God does have a special place for her ... a special place set aside for all his beloved furbabies, where they are able to heal and be made well again, while they wait for us to join them in the passage of time. Rainbow Bridge is this heavenly place. Bless dear Mirra with love jilly -------------------- ELLIE, my beautiful precious baby. 1st Sept 2003 - 3rd Dec 2004.
Rest peacefully my little sweetheart. |

I just had to come back in after I saw you posted the pictures. I wanted to say how wonderful the picture of precious little Mirra are. I guess you would have to get in the floor to take a picture of your little girl. I am so happy you posted them for us to see. Keep talking and posting it really does help.
