Hi everyone! On Saturday afternoon, I decided to take a little nap with Chloe. Having lost Skyler recently, I haven't been too energetic and had felt sluggish. I thought a nap would help us both.
While napping, I had a dream - I was walking down a winding road along the countryside - with faithful Chloe at my side. All of a sudden, I heard someone or something quickly approaching us from behind. I turned around, and saw this big german shepherd running down the road toward us. As he passed us, I realized that he was a tripawd - and he was running effortlessly with such speed. I looked down at Chloe, and she was wagging her tail.
I awoke immediately, remembering this short dream - and realized - Spirit Jerry had visited me & Chloe - to let us know that he was taking care of Skyler for us. I had to smile, even with tears running down my cheeks. That's my interpretation - and I'm sticking to it!

Thanks for sharing this! 
We're happy to hear Jerry is still looking over new tripawd friends at the Rainbow Bridge and letting people know everything is OK in their dreams...

Awe, I love that interpretation.
Shanna & Spirit Trouble ~ Trouble gained her wings 3/16/2011, a 27 1/2 month cancer survivor, tail wagging. RIP sweetheart, you are my heart and soul. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.
The November Five - Spirits Max, Cherry, Tika, Trouble & Nova. 11/2008 - 3/2013 An era ends as Queen Nova crossed the Bridge.
I think once you have a tripawd, all you get is naps, isn't it!!!, I sure hope we get to see our buddies again once over the bridge.
My buddy Gus had a left front amputation on April 7, 2010 and lived a great life until July 26,2010

I have never cried more from reading a post than I did with this one. Absolutely the most beautiful and hopeful dream I have ever heard. Thank you 🙂

Awww, that's very touching.
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.

My Mom is all teary-eyed too. Thank you so much for sharing.
If there's one thing I know for certain, it's that we dogs never leave our humans' side. Death is not the end, it's simply the beginning of another kind of relationship we will have with our pack, one that transcends physical form and goes deeper than anything humans ever thought pawsible.
Listen with your heart, and soon you will find Skyler running alongside you too.
Many, many hugs coming your way.
