We had our Cozworth from 8 weeks old and she was a very protective german Shepherd and a very loyal
and a big part of our family. My husband named her Cozworth because he couldn't have the car so the
next best thing was our beautiful Dog. When ever i went for a takeaway or we went for a walk on a
night Cozworth would make people aware she was protecting me or my daughters.
When i had my son Cozworth would sit by his pram or moses basket and protected him too. My husband
used to take her to work and they had a dart board out the back and whenever the guys would play
darts she would get the darts out of the board and bring them back to the player. We noticed
Cozworth was off her food for about 2 days and then she started losing weight rapidly so we took her
to our vet and we didn't want to hear the answer to what was wrong with her. She had something wrong
with her spleen and it was very serious and nothing could be done for her. The vet told us to spend
a day with her and the best thing for her was to take the pain away and have her put to sleep. We
took Cozworth back home and i think we were wanting a miracle to happen and for her to be back to
her old self, but when we got her home she looked so sad as if to say to us help me to stop this
pain as she yelped when we touched her and we still sat with her all that last night of her life and
knowing this would be the last night for her was really very upsetting for us. The next day my
daughters were distraught and couldn't go into school because of the sad thing that was going to
happen on that day.
Myself and my husband took Cozworth but i couldn't go in as it was if a big part of my heart was
being ripped from me, as my hubby took her Cozworth turned to me as if to say i will be ok.
I know what you're thinking. You think I'm dead. Because you cannot see me with your human eye, cannot feel me with your hands or hold me in your arms, you think I am gone forever.
You recall how I looked when I left this place, and you cannot remotely imagine that I could possibly be alive in another place. You are racked and torn by the pain of our separation and it blinds you to that which is right in front of you... me..............
I'm here to tell you different. You were worthy of my love and undying devotion on earth as I of yours. Do you really believe this love would be snatched from us forever by a loving Creator simply because I wasn't human? Was I not a living, breathing creation with personality? How could I have been so if I didn't possess the energy of soul, spirit and loving light? And if this energy is and always will be, then how can it be that I am dead?
.................
You say that all you have left are memories. Not so. You see, when I took leave of my earthly body I left a little something behind for you. You can't touch it, hold it or examine it for what I left behind is far too uninhibited for confinement. I left behind a piece of my soul. I placed it right next to your own which is quite fitting as we were always side by side in our earthly life together. I love you too much to have left you with nothing but memories, which tend to fade and grow cloudy as the years go by.
I love you too much to have vanished without a trace. How selfish it would be of me to remove love and light from your life.
.............
I understand your tears, each one you shed is testament to your love for me and I am honored and humbled. But don't forget the good things we shared - remember and smile. This is an honor for me as well. And when you need me I will be here. Close your eyes, relax, take slow, deep breaths and picture me in your mind. Shut off the world and your notions of what death is and give me a chance. Look for the subtle signs I send you. Don't stop being proud of me, I am a friend to be proud of, I am still your friend and soul mate.
Don't memorialize the death of my body but instead honor and celebrate my never-ending life for it is eternal and forever as is my love for you.
Until we meet again...

Rainbow Bridge
Just this 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.
All the 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....
