Tai Tai was the most gorgeous dog I have ever seen in my life. He was born in Lincoln in Feb 2006, and I met him when he was just 8 weeks old. We brought him home in April 2006 and he slept on me the entire way home to Bury, Lancashire where he met his two brothers, Brock and Jake. Right from the word go was a fiesty little boy to say the least, never wanted me (his human sister) to cuddle him, he was far to independent for that!! But he loved cuddles off his mummy. But would always sneak upstairs to my bedroom for sneaky naps on my bed, the swine!! When he was just 13 months old he had his first stint in world renowned Crufts and again the following year in March 2008, winning 1st in his class and then 3rd in Best in Breed. I wish so much that I could have been there to see him winning and not on the other side of the world, but how could I have known that that would be his last time in Crufts. I had moved out of my mum and dad's house when he was just a year old, and so when my mum asked me to looked after him and his brother Brock, while they went away in August 2008 i was thrilled!! To have this little bundle of joy to myself for 10 whole days!! He was such a joy to look after but a swine as well, because he was so strong minded, and would only eat his tea if i stayed with him and if i tried to take him for a walk he would turn around, grab his lead and yank me out of the door, but now he loved having cuddles from me! Yay lol. Strangley enough i remember thinking at the time if anything ever happend to Taiga that i could always remember that time we had together. Little did i know it would be a matter of months rather than years. He began being ill a few weeks later with excrucating back pains that the vets just couldn't diagose, then he began vomiting but still remained being that lovely bouncing boy that I loved so much and whenever i saw him i found it hard to believe that he was poorly. By the end of October 2008, the vets had done blood tests and thought there was something wrong with his liver, and so he had an emergency appointment at the University of Liverpool and 2pm on Wednesday 5th November 2008. The last time i saw my Tai Tai was on Thursday 30th October, and he was still rolling his ball to me wanting me to play and winding up my cat. I wasn't there when he died but thankfully his mum was, which i am so thankful about becuase it could have been so different. I got a text off my mum at about 3pm on Wednesday 5th November to say could i call round at her house that night and i knew he had died, so i called her and at first she wouldn't tell me, but i knew. My mum told me that, she had took him out for a quick walk up the street at 9am and then had come home and given his paws a bath to clean away his sicky, at about 11.45 she was just about to get ready to drive to his appointment in Liverpool when he let out a scream, my mum worrying that his back pains had come back and not wanting him to be in pain on the drive from manchester to liverpool got straight onto the phone to the vets to arrange some pain relief. whlist she was on the phone to the vet, Taiga let out another scream and passed away. My mum belives he was having heart attacks. She picked him up and raced to the vets, 5 minutes down the road. The vets couldn't do anything for him and said that he had gone. He was 2 years and 9 months old.
My mum still took him down to the university in Liverpool so that a postmortem could be done, becuase she wanted answers as to why such a young dog could die like that. It took quite a few weeks for the results to come through, which meant we had to wait quite a while for us to have his body back. Even then the results didn't make sense. It has only recently come to light that it was due to him having vaccinations.
Taiga was cremated at a wonderful pet cemetary in Wales. His ashes are inside a beautiful mohogany box with his name, birth date and the day he died inscribbed on a gold plate.
I miss him every single day and it is not true what they say, it does not get easier with time, its just the same as when i found out he had died. Whatever I am feeling I know that my mum, Taiga's mum is feeling a million times more lost. Nothing will ever replace that cheeky chappy who has brought so much joy to our lifes and whenever there is a star in the sky i know that he is up there looking down on us.
There is a saying that when Beardies die the walk across the rainbow bridge and every Beardie who has passed away previously is waiting for them. I'd like to think that is what happend whe Tai got up there.
I love you so much and miss you everyday of my life

Waking Angel
The eyes softly open,
As a beeze smooths the face,
At first golden light is seen,
But once the eyes have awoken,
After a long and restful sleep,
Its seen to be,
Shimmers of sunlight beaming through a holly tree,
They dance and flicker through the leaves,
Then the Angel steps out from under the tree,
To see, a large blue sky, with clouds of dazzeling white
and below grass, warmed by sunlight
Then all around flowers bloom and fruit ripens
And trees sway with a calm breeze
Then a pathway appears
Going down between
Two loveheart shaped trees
The Angel follows and with each footstep
A new fragrance from a flower just bloomed sents the air
and shade from the trees takes away all cares
Until the Angel has walked down the pathway
Leaving this place.
Yet what the Angel did not know
Is that they had just left Heavens Garden
With a pathway to heavens palace
Yet if you ever see it
Just remember this
Its a wonderland of luscious fruits and flowers in bloom
But you have to be quiet when you go there
Because under the warm sun & the moon and stars that calm
Angels slumber there,
At all hours, dreaming away their cares.

I went walking in the rain today
And thought of you.
I raised my face to the heavens
And let the raindrops touch my cheeks.
I imagined that they were your kisses,
So soft and sweet.
....გ .........ბ ........გ ......გ ...ბ...........გ
The wind blew softly, tentatively touching,
And it formed the caresses of your fingertips.
I could hear your laughter...
As if it sighed upon the wind.
And I lost myself in your presence
As I went walking in the rain.

EVERY MEMORY YOU LEFT BEHIND I MINE TO KEEP
WHILE YOU NOW REST IN ETERNAL SLEEP
SO MANY MEMORIES ARE GOING THROUGH MY MIND
BUT ON ANGEL DAYS THE GOOD ONES ARE HARD TO FIND
εїз
I LOOK AT YOU PHOGRAPH KNOWING I CANNOT TAKE ANY MORE
THE ONLY TIME I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN IS WHEN I KNOCK ON HEAVENS DOOR
I KNOW THAT YOU LEFT HAPPY MEMORIES FOR ME
BUT RIGHT NOW THEY ARE SO DIFFICULT FOR ME TO SEE
εїз
THE DAY YOU WENT AWAY YOU WENT AT SUCH A HEAVY COST
I FELT SO SAD AND ALONE I WAS TOTALLY LOST
YOU WILL KNOW THAT I DREAD THIS DAY EVERY YEAR
I CANNOT HELP BUT REMEMBER WHILE I SHED A TEAR........

Five little pumpkins
Sitting on a gate.
The first one said,
"Oh, my it's getting late!"
The second one said,
"There are witches in the air!"
The third one said,
"Well, I don't care!"
The fourth one said,
"Let's run and run and run!"
The fifth one said,
"I'm ready for some fun!"
Ooooo went the wind
And out went the lights
And the five little pumpkins
Rolled out of sight.
Lots Of Love Chrissie xxxx
xx Furchild in Heaven xx

When a furchild dies, a cloud turns into an angel and flies up to tell God to put another flower on a pillow.
A bird gives the message back to the world and sings a silent prayer that makes the rain cry.
Our furchildren may disappear from our lives, but they never really go away.
Their spirits put the sun to bed, wake up the grass, and spin the earth in dizzy circles.
Sometimes you can see the Rainbow Angels dancing in a cloud during the daytime when they're supposed to be napping.
They paint the rainbows and the sunsets.
They tug at the tide and make the waves splash.
They toss shooting stars and listen to wishes.
And when they sing windsongs, they whisper to us....
"Don't miss me too much. The view is nice, and I'm doing just fine."

x From me to you X Lovely Angel Up Above X
Do you really belive it?
Can it really be true?
How can you belive that! Life has ended with death???
It simply is not true.
So we cannot be together like we used to.
Does that mean i am gone?
Now i dance on the moon.
I play on the stars.
I cool your face with gentle wind.
While watching you from afar.
For a love and bond.
Like our's is so very strong.
It will forever carry on and on xxx
The Orphan and the stray
(by Josie O'Brien )
Across the brook near the Rainbow Bridge
There stands a little boy
Who never had a puppy
And scarcely had a toy.
He had never really had a home
Or a loving family
His parents had left the world
Quite sudden and tragically
His life on earth was lonely
Because he never quite fit in
He was just a little different
That was his only sin
Each night as he would lie in bed
He'd give the Lord his plea
Please send me a companion
A little LBD (Little Black Dog)
Now on the darkest, coldest streets
God heard another plea
A tiny little puppy
Cried out in agony
Please send a little boy
To share my life with me
I promise I'll be no trouble
My family has abandoned me.
The night that God heard their pleas
They had each taken their final breath
They crossed through the meadows of the Rainbow Bridge
Where there is no cruelty or death.
When the little boy and puppy
Looked across the brook they would see
That God had answered their prayers
And granted each a family.
Poem for Loss
by Josie O'Brien
My darling as I hold you near,
my heart is aching so.
I know that you must go away.
It is something we both know.
Acceptance is the hardest part
of knowing I'll remain.
For I know that when you're free at last,
I will cry with heartfelt pain.
Each memory has been traced with love
deep within my heart.
I never dreamed the day would come
When we would be apart.
For as I hold you in my arms
and whisper our last goodbye,
I'll cherish every memory
until the day I die.
For when my soul is released and free,
I'll come to you, my friend.
And the love we share will once again
be eternal; with no end.
xx With love Taiga xx

Inside are a million kisses,
wrapped up in a million hugs
To say how much we miss you Taiga,
and to send you lots of love.
