Absolutely hate the term and ….rainbow bridge
You know what happens to a snail if you put salt on it well that’s how it feels to me
Cringe cringe and why can no one go ANYWHERE without their pooch nowadays what happened to leaving it at home in the cool with a bowl of water

You may well ask! Sometimes there seem to be more dogs than people and the poor things look hot and bothered.Stepping along baking pavement can’t do their paws any good.
I agree , down with ‘fur babies’ and ‘rainbow bridges’ and less mealy mouthed phrases.

Part of me thinks "What has it got to do with me? It is perfectly harmless." Part of me thinks Nooooo!

Is it just me or does anyone else cringe when owners refer to their dogs as ‘fur babies’? Think I’m turning into a grumpy old woman 😠.
