It was a week long struggle to get Bandit when she was a baby at a no kill shelter. Then we found she had a horrible bladder infection that set us back quite a bit -- but our love for her was so strong from day one that we decided to save her. She gave us 9 wonderful years and then cancer struck and after several operations, chemos and much crying - we finally had to let her go to the rainbow bridge. Bandit will be in our hearts forever more - we know she will now find her old friends Andy, Hershey, Raven and Chaps and watch over us. Bandit, you've been about the best dog ever and Mommy and Daddy only hope that now you are finally at peace and free of pain. We love you with all our hearts. Hello my darling girl. It's been a little over a week that you left us and I am grieving for you every day. When Kahlua and I walk in the morning - all I can think about is the how much you loved our walk and how excited you would get - even after everything you went thru in the last 4 months. I am so sorry for what you had to endure and hope I did the right thing in letting you go to the Rainbow Bridge. I make myself think that you are back with Andy now and running alongside Raven and Chaps -- and that would make you so very happy. I love you so much, Bandit. Your beautiful spirit will live in my heart, which is so broken without you. Hello, my precious girl. It has been some time since Mommy wrote to you - but I think of you each and every day and I cry over you all the time. Bandit, so much love was in you and I am missing that so. Mommy is going thru some hard times right now - it just hasn't stopped since you got sick last Nov. I would be so much better if you were here with me - because just the comfort of you meant so much in this house. Sometimes I can see you in my mind and that just makes me long for you even more. I am hoping that you are with Raven and all my other precious babies - but especially the two of you and Andy, who was your very favorite when you were little. You had to leave us too early, Bandit, and it just isn't fair. We will never replace you my darling girl. I love you. Hello Bandit. Mommy is here thinking of you every day - loving you and missing you all the time. The heartbreak of losing you just doesn't stop. You will always be my very special girl and remain a part of me for the rest of my life. I hope you are not in any pain or turmoil anymore and that you are in the clouds looking down on our home, which has become so much more empty without you. Kahlua and Sofie are still here and I know they miss you too. Daddy misses you terribly and talks of you all the time. We hug and kiss you with our hearts my angel. My darling girl -- Mommy & Daddy are going away on Fri to Europe. Please watch over us and also Kahlua and Sofie. I shall think of you all the while - you are always here inside my heart. I hope you are happier and without any pain - and that you never cry again. My darling Bandit - how I love you and miss you each day. Hello my darling girl. Mommy has been very busy since our trip and we have had many problems since coming home. Kahlua is sick with Valley Fever now and I know she misses you terribly - as do Daddy and I. Bandit, it has been 9 months since you left us and it doesn't get any easier. We miss your joy, love and beauty in our house. We could never replace the magic that you brought to our family. Mommy is so sorry for what you had to go thru -- I only wish it could have been different for you. You didn't deserve the fate you received. Please know that we love you so much and you are living in our hearts and minds every day and will forever and always. Hello my darling girl. It is almost 1 yr. since you have been gone - a very sad and hard year to deal with. I miss you more than you could ever know. My heart just aches anytime I see a dog that looks like you, Bandit. You will always be my precious girl and I shall never stop missing you. Please watch over Daddy, Kahlua, Sofie and me and keep us well. We all love you so. Darling girl - so I guess you were surprised to have Kahlua join you. We were devastated to lose her - just as we were when you had to go. Now we just have Sofie - and she is so old. We miss you so very much - our precious beauty - nothing can replace you. What a special girl you are and always will be to us. We hope you are happy to have your wonderful sister with you now - because it was so very hard to have to give her up too. Always watch over us, Bandit - because we love you and miss you with all our hearts and souls. The house is just not the same without you, Kahlua and Raven. Hello, sweet girl. Mommy is missing you so much. I just don't know how to cope with your loss. I think of you all the time and when I see a dog that looks like you -- it just breaks my heart. You are so special to me, my girl -- and always will be. I know you are with Kahlua now and that is good for both of you -- but so hard on Mommy. I love you more every day - and miss you that much too. Hello, Bandit angel. It is Mommy writing to you before Daddy and I go away next week. We both miss you terribly and think of you every day. We hope you are happy to have Kahlua and Sofie with you now. Our house is so empty without my darling girls. Mommy and Daddy hope you will watch over us as we travel to South America and know that you will be in our hearts even though we are away from home. We love you so much, Bandit, and miss you even more. Darling Bandit, my beautiful girl. Mommy misses you and loves you so very much. Every day I cry - thinking of you, Raven and Kahlua and how much I remember of the way you all filled my days with love and happiness. You can never be replaced - any of you - and I so long to know that you all know that. Please watch over Mommy and Daddy in the coming years and never forget the love we have for you and your brother and sister. Kisses to you my lovely angel. Darling girl.

I will always see your precious face in my mind and cherish the time we had. I love you always, Bandit. It is now eight years since you went to Rainbow Bridge. Mommy misses you still and always thinks of you. You will be in my heart forever and always.

You will always be a very special part of my life/memory and forever world. Rest peacefully, my beautiful girl. Hello Bandit. Sorry I am late to write to you - but it does not mean that I do not miss you and think of you always. You will remain in my heart as a favorite dog that I was so fortunate to have for 9 years. Too short - but I am grateful for that much time with a loving, beautiful angel. Your sisters of today, Tassie & Koley, are wonderful too -- and they would have been good friends to you. You are loved and missed every day! Bandit you are never forgotten. I love you with all my heart and I miss you. It is so hard to think of the time stolen from us. You live in my heart.
