Tribute to Bandit
Honoring Bandit’s Legacy
Gentle Giant's Southwest Bandit
Bandit was the inspiration for "The Gentle Giants". A huge dog, a German Shepherd of quality and stature. No matter how big he became, he was always a sweet soul. Gentle, loving, protective, intelligent. He gave us far more than we could ever give him. In his honor, we will always strive to provide you with wonderful, good-natured, quality puppies that are just like he was. He lives on in all the beautiful puppies he sired. Love you, and I'll meet you at Rainbow Bridge some day, Buddy. R.I.P.
Rainbow Bridge
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here on earth, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are Meadows and Hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine, so our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to their health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss the ones very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly, he runs from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
YOU HAVE BEEN SPOTTED... when you and your special friend meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy tears rain from your face, and your hands once more caress his beloved head. Once more, you look into the eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life, although never gone from your heart.
​Then ...you cross over the Rainbow Bridge together.
