Arrival Story: Banjo was on death row along with three other female Siberians. The owner had brought them to our vet and asked that all be put to sleep and cremated. Banjo was 7 yrs old, two of them were 6 yrs old and one 8 yrs. old. All were healthy dogs. The owner's neighbors had complained about all the singing going on and hired a lawyer to make her get rid of them. The receptionist at the vets office called me and wanted to know if I could foster a couple, and try to give her time to find a home. I took Banjo and Misty, My sister took the other two. Misty was a very friendly, outgoing dog and was easily adopted. Banjo was another story. She was scared to death of men. It took me over 6 months to get her to trust me. She still does not trust my husband to this day, ever though he tries everything to get her to give in. I had a home lined up for her, but when the time came to give her over, I just couldn't do it. I was so afraid for her, she needed special care and attention. And I was in love. She is a sweet and lovable girl who I have never been sorry I kept. She became fast friends with my Alaskan Malamute, Kiska. When Kiska passed away in April of 2004, Banjo was so depressed, she would not eat or barely move from the door. She did not become herself again until we got the pups, KJ and Rain. Then she became mother Banjo. It was a joy to see her happy again. The other two Siberians went to a Siberian Rescue in Colorado.
Bio: February 20th, 2007
Today I said a tearful farewell to my beautiful, and oh so sweet Banjo. She aquired her wings at noon today. She has had arthritis in her back legs for some time now and they were getting weaker and weaker. The medicine she was on was no longer helping her. The bones in her back legs were slowing disintegrating. And today her hip bone collapsed. Due to the bad shape of her other back leg, there was nothing else I could do for her, but set her free to meet her Creator. And I'm sure my other Angels, especially her friend and playmate, Angel ^Kiska^, who she mourned for so long, was there to greet her and welcome her to the Bridge. She was a very special girl who won my heart, and I will never forget those piercing eyes with so much soul looking back at me. She may be gone, but she will never, ever be forgotten. I love you my Sweet girl, be at Peace...Until we meet Again.
Love Forever......Mom

You have been celebrating your birthday all day today & I still can't believe it has been over 2 yrs & 4 months...860 days now that you have been gone from our lives...but never from my heart. I can still see you running through the yard & giving me a woo-woo every time I came home from somewhere. How I miss that sound. We would have been celebrating your 13th birthday in 2007, but we know you had a grrrreat party at the Bridge that year with your Angel sister's & all of your beautiful Angel pals. I still see you, Grets & Kissa all playing together & I know you still are...chasing butterflies & anything you can find to chase as you run through the green meadows of Paradise. You gave me sweet memories & a love I will treasure forever.
Wishing my lil' Angel dancer a heavenly birthday & sending love & kisses to the stars above.
On Feb 22, 2009 we lost a dear & cherished friend...Lassie joined the Angels at the Rainbow Bridge. Please say a prayer for her & her family whose hearts are broken. She was 4 yrs old with a heart as big as the sky, always there to help, to encourage & to share in joys & sorrows with us all. We will miss you sweet Angel...
LIFE...so fragile. LOSS... so sudden. HEART...so broken.
In the wake of such a loss, we're haunted by things we don't - and may never - understand. Yet the solace we seek may not come from answers. So we look for comfort in the belief of love's everlasting connection. May that love lift you, hold you close, and give you peace.
With Love...for Lassie & her family
Solace
From the silence of your pain I heard my name
and on the wings of light I have come
to see the sadness in your eyes
that cry so many tears
Can you see me, I am here
I will always be near you
to calm your shattered heart
and to make you smile at the memories
Do you feel me, perhaps a soft brush of fur
You ache to believe it's real
but you are afraid to hope
You brush away a strand of hair
But it was I, whispering.....
I am only here for but a moment
The silver thread gently quivers
I will leave behind my love in a dream
When you awaken, and without really knowing why
Your heart will know at last
That it is all right, for now
to say good-bye
