Welcome to 
Standsure Border Collies
If you don't rescue, don't breed.

 

 

Dogs Don't Die

We have a secret you and I, that no one else shall know.
For, who but I can see you lie, each night in fire glow?

And who but I can reach my hand before I go to bed,
And feel the living warmth of you and touch your silken head.

And only I walk woodland paths and see ahead of me,
Your small form racing with the wind so youn again and free!

And only I can see you swim in every brook I pass
And when I call, no one but I, can see the bending grass.

From "Will You Be There"
 

In my anguish and my pain
Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'll never let you part
For you're always in my heart.

Michael Jackson...




The 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....

We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, as they
prepared for their journey and waved goodbye,
and 'slipped the surly bonds of  earth' to 'touch the face of God.'

- Ronald Regan
