RAINBOW RIDGE
The above is a very special place where all my ridgebacks get a new lease of life, free from pain and run free forever and never grow old. This is where I like to believe my ridgebacks that have crossed over are enjoying meeting up with each other and will be together forever
I STOOD BY YOUR BED LAST NIGHT
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep. I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep. I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here." I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me. I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more. I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care. I want to reassure you, that I'm not lying there. I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it's me" You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there. It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday. To say to you with certainty, " I never went away" You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew... in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you. The day is over...I smile and watch you yawning and say "goodnight, God bless, I'II see you in the morning" And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide, I'II rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side. I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out...then come home to be with me.
Tyamdroma Ganech Xena aka "Xena" 2-9-92 - 26.1.10
Rest In Peace my wonderful angel. Xena was from the first litter Pete and I ever bred and was a pleasure to own. She kept all the puppies at londoloza in check with just a look but everyone respected her and held her in high regard. you are now with your Mum Echo and uncle Loki and sister Che forever.

Tyandroma Ganech Hera aka 'CHE' 2-9-97 - 29-2-09
Che was a wonderful companion to Mel and her family and it is with a very heavy heart to learn of her passing away. I would personally like to send my sincere condolences and thank you to Mel and family for giving Che a wonderful life. You can clearly see she was loved by all of you. Rest in Peace sweet Che you are now re-united with your Mum Echo at Rainbow Ridge
"SARAN" 8.7.05 - 12-01-09
Saran was a beautiful girl whose first home did not turn out and was rehomed with Linda & Mark and her constant companion ROSSI (a golden retriever)Sadly Linda rang with the aweful news that Saran had passed away overnight and would like to think she is now playing at rainbow ridge with all her playmates that have gone before her. I would like to thank Linda and Mark for taking excellent care of Saran and giving her the best home even if it was for a shorter time than was expected. Saran has the most wonderful nature and fitted into family life with Linda and Mark very quickly. It is always hard to lose a faithful companion and my sincere condolences go to Linda and Mark and Rossi at this sad time.
TYANDROMA CHARLIS LOKI 19.2.96 - 14.10.06
Loki was our very first ridgeback and will always have a place in our hearts, as an introduction to the breed we could not have asked for a more sweeter, gentle boy than Loki. He will now be with his sister Echo forever.
God bless our sweet boy you are in our hearts forever

TYANDROMA CHARLIS ECHO 9.2.1995 - 11.5.2006
Our Echo was a very special brown nose girl she came to us at about 18 months of age. She really enjoyed the life of luxury she had. Echo was our very first Ridgeback girl and will always have a very special place in our hearts. Her favourite time was when she had her puppies to look after she was the best Mum and I have been totally spoilt by her loyalty and wonderful nature. It is a very very sad loss to accept.RIP my sweet little angel and look after all those others that have gone before you.Gone but never forgotten

Below is a poem written by Koffie's owners amidst their heartfelt grief over his sudden loss.
LONDOLOZA TAZULU KOFFIE - 08.07.05 - 6.11.05
He came to us with life, trust and total dependence
He showed us fun, energy and the joy of living
He learned our habits, our routines He left us suddenly He taught us that we must enjoy each other now, as we are not here long.

It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the loss of our two lovely boys at such a very young age, they deserve not to be forgotten so I have added this page on my website in their memory. At least they are not alone and have gone to the rainbow bridge together where life is never ending.
Rest In Peace our two sweet little Angels you were with us for such a short time but you touched the hearts of us all.
