Arrival Story:
Cookie was brought into my life through my fiancee. A year before Caroline and I met, she adopted Cookie from a Pointer kennel and gave her a new home in the big city. The bond between Cookie and Caroline was very strong, and continued to be up until her passing. In the beginning it was hard for me to win Cookie over. Caroline told me that she had a lot of love to give, and to give it time. That's what I loved about Cookie--she made you earn it! After a few months, Cookie and I became great friends. Mind you I was always second to Caroline in her eyes, but that was more than enough for me.

Bio:
Cookie was a gentle, kind and loving soul. She loved to get your attention with a little tap of her paw. Although she was independent, she always wanted to be in the same room as either Caroline or me. She'd go anywhere with us and was extremely well behaved. She loved to cuddle in morning and do large, fast circles around the dining room table before meal time. Cookie was a devoted dog who gave us more than we could ever give her. On May 15th, my heart broke and I'm not sure I'll ever truly recover.

Sirius Rising: The Cookies In Cream Chronicles


The Bridge

December 13th 2011 7:37 am

The tall grass began to sway back and forth. At the ends of the grass were blooms of brown wheat-like frays. The breeze picked up, bending the grass so that the frays kissed the ground before snapping upright.

Stryker placed his paw on Cookie's shoulder. His gentle embrace pulled her attention away from the dancing tall grass and she looked into his eyes. The deep pools of brown were filled with such kindness and love. Today, there was a hint of sadness, the kind of sadness that creeps in when a new arrival is making their journey to the Bridge.

He didn't need to say anything; his expression spoke a thousand words. The two made their way to Turtle Pond.

A crowd had already gathered; word had travelled fast. On the shores of Turtle Pond were Cleo, Gypsy Belle, Talia, Beezer and Uli. In the distance, The Lady Melanie ran anchor. The crew, lead by Captain Ernie George, had boarded Roman’s Floating Doghouse and was making their way to shore.

Autumn, Jamaica and Tammy skillfully maneuvered two waverunners into place next to the Bridge.

Fred, Rinky, Wyoming, Cheyenne, Molly, Tinsleigh, Abby, Kirby and Jordan whispered amongst each other.

Trusty, Remy and Bailey were handing out beverages and baked goods. Elvis, Mercury and Daisy sat together under a tree.

Rosie arrived with Vermont Labbies, Remy and Magnum, and her best pals, Daisy, Jack a Roo and Flopsy. With Rosie were all of the dogs and cats that were now living out on the farm with her. The entire crew had made the journey to Turtle Pond for the newest arrival.

Lucas and Sadie Mae splashed around in the water, while Boudy and Moe watched.

Quincy pranced by and gave Cookie a nod, Cosmo and Butch were just steps behind him.

As Roman's Floating Doghouse pulled into shore, Jarvis positioned the boarding plank and Louie, Alex, Max, Pongo, Sheb'z, Spike, Sheba and Miracle were the first off.

Today was a special day.

The breeze picked up once again and everyone turned his or her attention towards the Bridge. A brilliant rainbow stretched across the sky and hovered over the Bridge. The colours, so vibrant and warm, melded together to create a magnificent spectacle.

The first glimpse of the new arrival came into view. A stark white coat of fur contrasted against the dark wood of the Bridge.

Slowly, he placed one paw in front of the other. Each step made cautiously. His large ears swiveled, picking up the slightest noise. Before him he saw a group of dogs and cats. They stretched across the shore for as far as he could see.

The sound of water turned his attention to the right where he saw two waverunners docked. His tail danced at a familiar sight. He had grown up playing on a waverunner. In fact, his Mom had loved riding upon them.

He continued to make his way across the Bridge. As he approached the highest point, white ears like his came into view.

He continued.

He could now see the face of the dog that waited for him at the end of the Bridge. He hadn't seen this face for many years. Now she was standing before him.

The light that had dimmed and faded from his eyes, once again blazoned with light. His ears went forward, his tail spun in circles. He bowed in playfulness and leapt onto his back legs. The cautiousness he once displayed was now gone. The joy he was showing flooded over the others that waited to greet him.

"My boy," said the dog at the end of the Bridge. "My sweet, boy. Dozer, come to Momma."

He began to run, only a few steps into his charge and he was stopped in his tracks.

From the railing of the Bridge came Dozer's Domestic Shorthair kitty friend, Lucy. She had jumped on his head and wrapped her body around his neck.

Dozer reached up and stroked the back of his dear kitty friend.

"Lucy Kitty!" He exclaimed with joy.

The embrace brought a tear to Cheyanne's eye. She hurried up the Bridge and meet Dozer and Lucy. Dozer, with Lucy Kitty on his shoulder, hugged his Mom.

"I've missed you so much," he said.

"You are home, my dear boy," she replied.

Just behind Cheyanne was Dozer's brother, Bob.

The family embraced, together again.

"Come, Dozer," said Cheyanne. "There are so many wonderful pups and cats for you to meet. Great adventures await."

Last night Dad and I slept in my Bachelor Pad. That's right.

Dad is camping out in front of a new home sales office to ensure that we're first in line for a release of highly sought-after lots.

The good news is that we're first in line and we'll get the awesome lot we want. The bad news is that it's cold. Dad and I had to snuggle real close.

I'm at home now with Caileigh, but Dad is still at the sales centre. Either Dad or Mom have to be there until Saturday.

I'm sure I'll make my way back there and spend some more time with Dad at some point.

 

Big birthday day here at the Bridge

November 15th 2011 7:38 am

Today is a big day here at the Bridge, a special day.

Three of my dear friends are celebrating their earthly birthdays.

We still celebrate our earthly birthdays at the Bridge; not because we're aging, that stopped when we made our journey here, but instead to celebrate the years we spent with our families on earth.

Today I wish a very happy earthly birthday to my dear friend, Cheyanne. This beautiful white German Shepherd is our resident waverunner expert. She can always be found out on Turtle Pond, racing around. Be careful, though, she's been known to send passenger's for an unexpected swim if the turn is too tight, as Rosie learned a few years ago.

I also want to wish a happy earthly birthday to my other friend, Cheyenne. Can you believe it--two Cheya(e)nnes, just different spellings?! This beautiful girl has been joined here at the Bridge by her daughter, Wyoming, and most recently her adopted friend, Molly. You can often find Cheyenne mothering Wyoming and making sure that she is happy and safe, just as she did on earth.

My third pal, is a dear galpal. Sheb'z, a beautiful dobie, is spending the day watching over her Mom and Maya. The two of us spend hours together watching our families.

Happy earthly birthday to three sweet girls. Each of them enrich my life here at the Bridge.
