Sue, I am so sorry for your loss of Bear. There is nothing one can say to take the pain away, but know we are all here to listen.
I'm sure you parents are taking it very hard, he was so young.
Yes, you are right he is at the Rainbow Bridge with all of the other beloved pups who went before him including Grandma Kona who is probably taking care of him, licking his ears and eyes.
I'm so sorry, you and your parents have my prayers and heartfelt sympathy.
Jackie, Miss Daisy and Perry
