Rainbow Bridge

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....

Amber - Original blood line from Butterfly Hill Farms, Marshal and Jean Crow Owners

Amber was a lovely lady that I recently had the short pleasure to own and love.  Sadly she came to her final resting place while she was with me.  Before she left to cross the Rainbow Bridge, we had the pleasure of taking her last trail ride.  She was a joy to know.  Thank you Jean for the opportunity to have a little bit of Butterfly Hill history.

My Sonny boy

Sonny was my first horse and my Black Beauty dream come true.  He was the most trustworthy horse I've probably ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Frisbee - My guardian angel for so many years.  She was my best friend and loyal companion. With her, I was never afraid.
