He loved adventure, swimming, kiddy pools, ice cubes, talking balls & tug of war. He is the only dog I know to hold one end of a toy calmly and let the other dog, large or small, shake, rattle and roll the other end. Once, a little beagle friend Bailey let go of a rubber toy that was stretched taunt like a rubber band. Morgan just stood still holding the other end when it returned to it's form with a swish. I moved in thinking "oh oh" somebody could be hurt but I swear Morgan smiled as if to say "Chill, I won't harm the little guy. I'm having FUN!" Back to the same game they went. Every time they saw each other here one or the other would grab the rubber ring toy and invite the other to their special game of "tug", Mutt & Jeff style.
Below find him bobbing for hot dogs at our Halloween'08 party. He was the smart one who stood in the pool and scooped up a mouthful of water and strained out the hot dogs much like a whale eating plankton. Notice how all the other dogs respect his right to be the only dog inside bobbing? He was loved by all and we all miss him dearly.
Morgan may the angels guard you and keep you pain free running through the evergreen grass over the rainbow bridge until you are joined again with your mom. I love you Morgan, thank you for sharing your life, joy & love with me too. I wish I could hold your big mug one more time for one more kiss. I miss you buddy, warm woofs forever!

side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. |

animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who
were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them
in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content,
except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who
had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... Author unknown... |
