True to my promise, there is now a new web page on the Seppala Kennels website. And mysteriously the "rainbow bridge blues" are relieved. Not gone! I can still feel exactly the same feeling, but muted, no longer a sharp incapacitating pain at the heart's core. So, that was what BooBoo-Ji wanted, sure enough. A "Rainbow Bridge" page for the Seppalas that are gone but not forgotten at Seppala Kennels in Grizzly Valley in the Yukon Territory. The page is still rudimentary. Not all the departed friends have their photos there yet, but from time to time I add more, as I find time to process their images. Later, perhaps, I'll also add a poem or two, whatever will round the memorial out and give it depth and feeling. Already I find that I visit the page myself in odd moment, just to "be with" the dogs I miss, and it really helps. Thank you, Sepalluna-Ji.

It is quite lovely..
And your rainbow bridge page is beautiful.
Sniff... Those beautiful eyes the mirror of their sweet innocent souls. It is so hard for us.
Your site is wonderful full of your love and caring.

I ascend from primordial plains. I pass through tall grass. I am Epicyon.
Herbivore ears annouce my dominion. I am preditor. I am Epicyon.
I pick the scent of the air. Fire glitters in my eyes. I watch the man. I am Wolf.
I am spirit. I am Free. I am Inuit. I am companion.
I am the quiet flow that cracks the ice. Snow covers my sight. My pads sink deep. I am Siberia.
Dawn colors my eyes. I see my kindred move along me. I smell the blood of the seal. I am Chukchi.
I walk the great snow. Stars are my heavenly companions. I carry my keeper. His bloodline is mine.
I am endurance. I am hope. I am Life. I am Alaska
I am Husky.
