Hello there Jabba I was just visiting some of my babies here at the bridge and came across your story and wanted to stop in to say hello, I see that you just celebrated your 8th year at the bridge. Oh sweet Jabba I can tell your mama loved you very much and I know you understood the decision she had to make for you. Ms. Shannon, once I had a lab that I rescued in my years of foster and rescue I had never had a sweet dog turn so vicious , sadly I had to make the same decision you did and it broke my heart in half. But over the years I have come to realize that when their little minds are just in turmoil and they don't understand when they do wrong, just like having an illness it is our responsibility to allow them to have the peace they deserve. I hope you can hold on to the beautiful memories you made with Jabba and pass the love you had on to another precious one.

My deepest sympathies to you on your loss. I do know what it is like to lose a loved one, whether Human or one of our special, furry babies. Having lost quite a few of my own and doing dog rescue, it is never easy. From my house of 6 furr babies, to yours, we wish you the best. If you ever need to write please do so. I will be there for you. They never leave us, we just don't see them any more. Their spirit lives on.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss of Jabba. Please find comfort in knowing that Jabba is now at Rainbows Bridge and making lots of friends. Saying goodbye is never easy. I also lost my precious cat Spooky July 30th 2001 after 16 wonderful years with her. I am sure that Jabba and Spooky have become good friends. You can visit with Spooky at: http://www.rainbowsbridge.com/residents/Spook002/resident.HTM Take Care, Susan

My sincere sympathy on the loss of your beloved Jabba. I think something awful must have been going on for him to attack someone who had taken care of him and loved him so much. I'm sure he welcomed the release from this world - I can't believe he would have been happy hurting the ones he so obviously loved. I hope the memories you have of the good times you had together help to ease the pain of your loss.

Shannon, your memorial is beautiful. Just reading your posts to Jabba brings tears to my eyes. I know that he loves you and always will. I have never had to experience what you are going through, except when we gave our kittens to a shelter after their unexpected Arrival and we couldn't keep them, and even that broke my heart. I hope your memories of Jabba makes your healing easier, and knowing he is watching over you. If there is anything we can do please let me know. And please know that we are praying for you and your family that your hearts will heal and smile again someday. See you Saturday, love you!

Oh Shannon, Your Jabba looked just like my Mag pie, what a beautiful boy. I know the pain you are going through I think each day I wake up its going to hurt less and it doesn't it just hurts more. My heart goes out to you and your husband. I know my bossy girl has probably already found your Jabba and he's teaching her the ropes. I loved her like you loved your Jabba I only pray that time will make our hearts hurt less. Take care Shannon

Shannon, I just visited your beautiful Jabba, she sounds like quite a lady. I felt so bed reading your story, what in the world happened to Jabba? I know the pain of losing a beloved pet, I lost my precious Bichon, Amor July 1, 2010. Its easier now but I still miss her and think of her everyday. I hope soon you'll remember all the love and joy Jabba gave you in the good times. Please visit Amor at Rainbow Bridge to see my little girl. Take care, God bless.

Shannon, what beautiful memories. I am so very sorry that Jabba had to leave to cross the bridge. They are not lost, just waiting for us. One of my best friends and companion of 16 years, Willy, went to the bridge in January. My tears still flow when I think of him. I know though, that Jabba and Willy are probably playing in the meadows, running and jumping now. I know Willy loved the sunshine and I hope that Jabba does too. I truly believe that God would not have made a Heaven without our beloved companions there to meet us. I have left an extra angel to look over Jabba, as they are our special angels watching over us. I hope that your pain begins to turn to peace that fills your heart with nothing but wonderful memories. They make the days become a little less heartbreaking knowing that their hearts are always with ours. God Bless You until we all meet again. I would love for you to visit Willy at http://rainbowsbridge.com/residents/WILLY010/Resident.HTM

Oh sweet Jabba, your story brings me to tears. I know you never meant to hurt anyone. You are loved and whole at Rainbow Bridge. You will be loved by all. My Lilly has been there just over 2 years. I only had her for a short time as well. I know she will find you and introduce you to all her friends. Sweet Jabba, be sure to send kisses down the rainbow to mommy, daddy and QB. Dear Shannon, My heart goes out to you. I had a dog years ago with behavioral issues that came latter. I had to let her go as well. I think something must of been hurting Jabba in order for him to act out. I don't believe he knew what he was doing at the time. He couldn't of been loved anymore without you. I am so sorry you had to make this decision. You will always have a guardian angel looking over you. I have a great song on Lillysmommy residence that says it all. It was written by someone who lost someone dear and her baby has been at rainbow bridge a couple of yrs. Many prayers. LillysmommySonoma/ ca

Dear Shannon, I loved every photo. It's so easy to see how much Jabba the Mutt was loved and what a wonderful mommy he had. It breaks our hearts when our little soulmates depart for the rainbow meadow but we know that they go to a beautiful place. Jabba is well and happy, and now plays with many new furfriends in heaven's most beautiful meadow. You will see him again at the rainbow bridge someday. Blessings of comfort and peace.

Jaba - You are a cutie and now that you are in heaven with God and the angels, you will be cured of whatever the illness was that was not discovered on earth! Send your family some signs, kisses from the Rainbow to let them know that you are safe, happy, healthy and will have many friends. Let mom and dad know that you have met up with Trixie and Ruffles and that God has appointed all of you to be their guardian, protectors to watch over them until they are called to the Bridge to join you one day. I will tell my Brande to find you and play with you. To Shannon - I send my heartfelt sympathy to you over the loss of Jabba. I too lost my soulmate not long ago, see Brande at http://rainbowsbridge.com/residents/BRAND167/Resident.htm - We know that God has promised we will be with our babies again one day. I leave this quote with you, "heaven is the only place where all the dogs and cats you have ever loved will come running to meet you." Author Unknown

Hello Shannon, I am so sorry for the lost of your beautiful Jabba. King Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes: "To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven…a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance…" The Zohar, the classic work of Kabbalah, describes the inner psyche of man as "crying being on one side of the heart and laughing on the other side of the heart." Yet, there is an even deeper understanding, we will learn to be joyous and broken hearted at the same time. Our fur babies where so beautiful and a gift of true joy & love, how can we not be happy when we reflect on there memory and begin to celebrate there life. Please take comfort in knowing that one day we will be together again with our beautiful companions; I lost my Zander in July 2008 & have attached his link if you care to visit. With Love & Sympathy Diane. http://rainbowsbridge.com/residents/ZANDE003/Resident.htm

Shannon, I'm sorry for the loss of your beloved Jabba the Mutt. I lost my Ginger to lymphoma she was only 6, I share in your grief. We must take comfort knowing both Jabba and Ginger are healthy and happy, waiting for the day we will all be together again. I've enclosed an Angel to watch over our babies.

Dear Shannon, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Jabba. I know how painful it is to lose one of these wonderful beings that bring so much joy into our lives. I understand how very painful it is, especially the first week. We too had a loss last May, our girl, Lady, a 14 year old Akita had to be put to rest, not a day goes by that I do not miss her. There are no words that can mitigate your pain, only time. My hope is that one day we will reunite with them and cross the Rainbow bridge together. My thoughts and prayers are with you, God speed, Warmest, Ana, Lady and Sparky's mom
