Review:

"This fabulous book has been written sympathetically for everyone who has lost a horse". --England's Equestrian (June/July 06)

From the Inside Flap:

Equestrians from all walks of life—from backyard riders to international competitors—share a common bond when it comes to the loss of a horse, whether it be through death or some other circumstance, such as being forced to sell due to finances. All such losses may cause us great grief. In a profound sense, this book was written for all of us. Beyond the Rainbow Bridge was written to help equestrians (and those close to them) understand, cope with and, eventually, heal from, the loss of a horse. The book covers a variety of topics, including: *The emotions that characterize the grieving process *Understanding and preparing for euthanasia *Coping with a sudden loss due to accident or illness *Options for burial, cremation, or other methods of disposal *Helping a child cope with losing a horse *How horses deal with the loss of a stablemate *Ideas for memorializing a special horse *Bonding with another horse after a loss.
