Oh no :( I'm so sorry to hear this.

RIP dear Raustyk. run free at the bridge.

Oh no, I'm so sorry. :( May Raustyk run and play happy at the Rainbow Bridge. {hugs}

Oh, it can't be! Last I read, she wasn't herself?? RIP sweet one. {HUG} to you, mom!

I am so sorry to hear about Raustyk. :( Rest in peace, sweet girl. You will be missed.

:( RIP Raustyk. :(

OMG Raustyk!!!!!! :( I've been gone too long... I'm so sorry for your loss... :(

((((HUGS)))) I was so surprised to see this and I am so, so sorry. She sure was a great girl. Goodbye, Raustyk. :(

oh no! :( I am so so very sorry. :( I don't know what else to say. I loved her and I am sure many others did too. I felt like she was my own. again I am so very sorry she was a gorgeous rottie girl. ((((((HUGS))))))

Raustyk, sweetie, find Shadow, she's relatively new to the bridge too and I'm sure she'll be happy to show you the ropes.

Rest easy big girl. You were one of my favorites here, and you will be missed by many.

:(

I am so sorry, Sue. I know you tried very hard for the last year or so to get her back to perfect health again. Raustyk, sweetie, I am sure that Nanook was waiting to greet you again. Play well together.

Sweet Raustyk, lovable lug of a girl
Shine down your love on this sad old world
Play nice at the Bridge as we know you will
And when you need to rest, watch over us from a hill

The sun shines there almost every day
Soak up the golden rays in your ebony coat
Store up the warmth and the joy some way
For when you meet mom again, as you will some bright day

Sweet lovable girl, with your wide, wise smile
Send your momma comforting thoughts in her dreams for a while
Romp and play, now that your strength is restored
And it thunders, we'll know it's you, bouncing the clouds a little too hard

Sweet lovable lug of a Rottie dear girl
We'll miss you down on this old world
But we know you're happy at The Rainbow Bridge
And will send down love always, as you always did.

It is pure torture for me to go on this thread. My heart is breaking along with yours, Sue. Words can't express how shocked and saddened I am that your beloved Raustyk is no longer by your side. If it makes you feel any better, My RB Cody is the keeper of the Bridge and I've told him to welcome Raustyk with open paws. Brave Raustyk, you were courageous, sweet and loving.May you have eternal happiness with Nook and all our babies gone before you. {Hugs to Sue}

I'm so sorry to hear this Sue -
**hugs**

I am so very sorry :( It is so hard to lose our special ones. Raustyk, you were, and always will be loved. All of our RB dogs will give you a grand welcome and look after you until you can be reunited with your mom. You're a beautiful soul. You will be missed greatly.

Be happy at the Bridge sweet Raustyk - thank you for the time you spent with us

I'm so sorry Sue, may Raustyk rest in peace and romp around with all of the other PT babies at the RB. :(

I'm so sorry to hear about this very sad news, Sue.

REST IN PEACE, SWEET RAUSTYK.

Oh Sue, I'm so shocked and saddened to read this. Rest in peace Raustyk, I'm sure your buddy Nanook will be waiting for you at the bridge. We'll miss you sweet girl!

Oh no Sue i am so sorry :(. Rest easy and pain free now Raustyk, now reunited with your brother Nanook.

I am so sorry to hear this. Beautiful Raustyk, run pain-free and young again!! Go look up Smiley, she is new around RB, too.
Hugs to you and your family.

I am so sorry to hear this. :( Raustyk was a very special girl & she will
be missed. Rest In Peace sweet girl.

I am typing through tears, Sue. I'm so sorry. Heaven needed another beautiful angel.

Rest In Peace Raustyk :( Play hard at the bridge, sweetheart. :(
I know there is a joyful reunion party taking place at the bridge right now. Ruastyk will be welcomed by friends and not strangers. :(

i am so sorry for your loss. it's so hard to lose them. kindest regards, joyce

I saw this earlier and for some reason I thought it was Nanooks old thread being brought back up.

I'm so sorry to hear, I thought her time might be soon after your last post about her. R.I.P sweet girl :(

I'm sorry I'm late with this. Pretty Raustyk, rest in peace.

Sue, sorry it's took so long for me to reply to this.

It truly breaks my heart after just seeing the new pictures you posted only days ago:( I knew she wasn't looking good then but had no idea her her days would be so short.
I know how hard it is and I know how you feel. But she is now whole and happy again and running free.

I did see that you've took in a foster and I hope it helps heal the hole I know you have in your heart now.

Lots of (((HUGS))) to you.

Oh Sue.... :( :( My heart breaks at this news. RIP sweet Raustyk. You will be missed. :(

Run free and play hard.
You'll be missed forever.
:(

I am so sorry for your loss! I was just looking at Nanook and Raustyk (and all your other dogs) on Dogster. I found the link when looking at your posting of your new foster pup and was happily clicking around looking at all your beautiful dogs and then I realized that Nanook and Raustyk have passed on (I sent you a PM about Nanook). I am truly sorry and I am glad you are fostering your new little bundle of furr!

Sue, I am SO sorry for your loss. Heaven sure did gain an Angel with Raustyk.

I am so sorry. :(

I'm very sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss. RIP Raustyk.

I am so sorry, I missed this until now. I am so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Raustyk was just such a gorgeous dog and I know she was very special too. I'm glad you got a new little pup to foster to help lessen the blow. She's certainlly a cutie.

Thank you all for your kind words and support. It helps & means a lot to me. I'm having a tough time with this and each post helps brighten my life back up.

Oh sue, I just saw this - I'm so sorry. She & Nanook are back together, and maybe, just maybe, are romping around at the Bridge with Sherman & Rosie, too. That would be a sight - two pairs of husky & rotti sibs. I hope you can feel her spirit close by, she'll be with you always. (((hugs)))

Karen's poem is such a loving, beautiful tribute! I'll think of Raustyk every time it thunders :)

Sue, I'm so sorry to hear of Raustyk's passing. She was a wonderful dog. May she play freely at the Rainbow Bridge.
