for all the dog Rescue workers.....
Not An Angel
The young pup and the older dog lay on the shaded, sweet grass watching the reunions. Sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes a whole family would approach the Rainbow Bridge, be greeted by their loving pets and cross the Bridge together.
The young pup playfully nipped at the older one, "Look, something wonderful is happening!"
The older dog stood up and barked "Quickly! Get over to the path!"
"But that isn't my owner," whined the pup. But he did as he was told.
Thousands of pets surged forward as a figure in white walked on the path toward the Bridge. As the glowing figure passed each animal, that animal bowed its head in love and respect.
The figure finally approached the Bridge, and was met by a menagerie of joyous animals. Together, they all walked over the Bridge and disappeared.
The young pup was in awe, his mouth hanging open. "Was...was that an angel?" he whispered.
"No, son," the older dog replied. "That was more than an angel. That was a person who worked in rescue."
