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...

In Loving Memory of our very first American Pit Bull Terrier. The one who started our love affair with the breed. Sampson was just over 11 years old. He passed away Sunday February 1, 2009 of lymphoma cancer in the arms of the people who loved him the most. Not a day goes by that we won't or don't think about our precious little boy.
