Welcome to Baloo's Rainbow Residency

Memories of Baloo

Baloo...our beloved golden who has blessed us with 12 and a half wonderful years! I can still remember the day we got you....an 8 week old adorable fluffy ball of fur with those loving eyes. My niece who was 3 at the time took one look and said "can we name him Baloo?" We do not have kids and I said" what kind of name is that?"...she said the fluffy big cute bear in the Jungle Book...and that is how he was named. The name is so fitting...Baloo...the most gentle,loving boy...our boy...the best! Baloo has some nicknames too...Balooby, Balooster, Nudgy, and Sidewinder!!! I want to write about why you have those nicknames but it is just too hard right now...I wish we had another 12 years of you being here with us....my heart has broken in two. I cannot wait to get to Rainbow bridge. I know you are there swimming in a pond and rolling around in the green grass afterwards. Maybe there are some fish you can catch and give a lick before you release it. It is not the same fishing without you....nor is it the same swimming in "your" pool...our lives have a big empty hole in it. We love you Baloo and miss you terribly....there will never be another like you. Mom & Dad xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo 8/24/11 HAPPY BIRTHDAY BALOO!!! You would have been 13 today. I miss you with all my heart which is broken in two since you left us. I think about you every single day and the hurt is still so raw....as raw as the day you passed to the Rainbow Bridge....even after 5 months and 3 weeks. You are so very special...the most special dog I will ever ever have!!! We love you sooo much and cannot wait til the day we meet again at Rainbow Bridge....hugs...kisses and lots of pettins!! Love Mom....love you Balooby.... 3/15/12 Today marks a year you have been gone from our lives. We are so heartbroken. Baloo you can never be replaced in our hearts. Everyday you are in our thoughts and as we share our stories of you we shed tears and smiles.We have added baby Mako to our family and hope you will watch over him. He is definetly not like you my good boy!!! Mako is very stubborn and has had to have surgery on both elbows already at age 7 months....and he is afraid of your pool!!!! I knew getting another could never ever replace you nor would I want another too. The Baloo shaped hole is still in my heart....and it won't be healed until I meet you at Rainbow Bridge..... Love you forever.... Mommma xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo 8/24/12 Another birthday you should have had here with us....you would have been 14!! I feel we should have had more than the 12 1/2 years with you!!!! My heart is still broken in two. I think about you everyday and for some reason lately I have been crying so much over losing you. Baby Mako is growing up so fast...he finally loves your pool although he hasn't jumped in like you loved to do. Mako's surgery went well and hopefully he won't have any problems later on....I know you will watch over him....in some ways he is so much like you and I hope he can become half the dog you were! Today you have been at Rainbow bridge for 1 year, 5 months, 1 week & 2 days.....Dad still has your favorite stick on the flats boat....he cannot bear to let Mako fetch with it yet...it was yours and we will never get rid of it. I pray every night you are pain free and happy....please be there to meet us when it is our time. Love you my Balooby, Sidewinder, Balooster, Baloober.....My most awesome dog!!! Love your Momma xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
