August 28 is Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day, a day to honor and remember our pets who have passed away but remain forever in our hearts. It's a time to celebrate the joy and unconditional love they brought into our lives! For us at 2 Fur Doodie, this means remembering our beloved Kada, our fiesty, sassy and playful Shiba Inu who brought so much joy to our lives and helped inspire the creation of 2 Fur Doodie. While we miss you here, we know you’re in a better place, Kada!
What is Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day?
This day, created in 2015 by Deborah Barnes, is named after the "Rainbow Bridge," a beautiful poem that describes a place where our pets wait for us after they pass. Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day offers comfort to those missing their furry, feathered, or scaly friends, reminding us that our love for them lives on.
