The Rainbow Bridge
The Rainbow Bridge is a place of love, memory, and reunion—a peaceful meadow where our beloved dogs run free, whole and happy once again. This page is dedicated to honoring those who have left paw prints on our hearts forever. Though they are no longer by our side, their love, loyalty, and spirit remain with us always.
Across the Rainbow Bridge you wait—until we meet again.
GCH Runway's A Cause For Celebration "Cheers"
GCH Draco Runway Triple Threat at Adaugeo SOD X GCH Runway's A Cause For Celebration
Cheers was as beautiful as she was joyful—playful, funny, and full of personality. We called her our “little pony” because she loved to sit up and wave her paws up and down, always ready to make you smile.
She was the result of a special, collaborative breeding between friends, sired by a stunning Canadian Best in Show winner. Cheers carried that quality forward, bringing an exquisite sense of type and refinement to Runway Papillons.
As the dam of Scout and London, her legacy lives on—not only in her offspring, but in the unmistakable elegance and charm she passed down.
GCH CH Runway's Rumor Has It "Rumor"
CH Runway's Storm Warning X CH Runway's Wind Dancer
Rumor was taken from us far too soon. We lost her at a show to an unknown virus, despite her being fully vaccinated—a loss that was both shocking and deeply heartbreaking, and one that still doesn’t feel real. She was full of life, endlessly opinionated, and absolutely loved the show ring. When Rumor stepped into the ring, she owned it—head high, tail up, completely in her element. There was never any doubt she knew she was special, and she carried herself with a presence that was impossible to ignore.
Outside the ring, she was just as unforgettable—bold, expressive, and full of personality. She had a way of making you laugh, of keeping you on your toes, and of reminding you every single day just how much joy one small dog could bring.
Rumor left an impression that can never be replaced. She brought so much light into our lives, and losing her has left an immeasurable void—but her spirit, her spark, and everything she gave will never be forgotten.
GCH CH Runway Blazen New Trails "Scout"
CH Runway's Storm Warning X CH Runway's Wind Dancer
Scout was the gentlest soul—sweet, kind, and full of quiet joy. He adored his toys and could happily entertain himself, yet was just as content sharing that happiness with everyone around him. Scout loved every dog he met, big or small, greeting each one with an easy, friendly nature that made him instantly loved.
He had a special connection with children, drawn to their energy but always meeting them with a calm, steady patience. There was a quiet confidence about him—never demanding attention, but always present, always steady, always good. Scout had a way of making everything feel peaceful, and his gentle spirit will be missed more than words can ever express.
U-CH / INT CH Legacy Cookies 'N Cream CD CDX RAE TT CGC HIC "Oreo"
Oreo…how do you put into words the dog who started it all? She was one of the smartest dogs I have ever trained—quick, intuitive, and always thinking. Oreo had an incredible vocabulary and could pick up something new after being shown just once or twice. She wasn’t just intelligent—she understood.She was the true leader of the pack, naturally confident, always happy, and completely sure of herself. There was something about her that drew people in—anyone who met Oreo couldn’t help but fall in love, not just with her, but with the breed because of her.
She may not have been the perfect show dog in terms of conformation, but she was perfect in all the ways that mattered. Oreo taught me more about dogs, structure, and this breed than any other ever could—and for that, she will always be the one who started everything.
GCH Quillo 'N Runway A Story In The Making "Charm"
GCHB Flinters Ain'T He A Rebel X GCH Quillo Coming Attraction At Jo-Bee
Bred by Mary Hakel of Quillo Papillons, Charm was an incredibly special girl who left a lasting mark on our hearts, and her time with us ended far too soon. She had a way of teaching quiet, meaningful lessons about life—about presence, devotion, and the simple joy of each day—that stay with you long after they are gone. Some dogs come into your life and take on a deeper significance, and Charm was undeniably one of those rare souls.
She was wonderfully sweet, full of fun, and completely devoted—always happiest when she was close, sharing in whatever the moment held. Her gentle nature, bright spirit, and loving heart made her unforgettable to all who knew her.
Though her time was brief, Charm’s impact was profound. She holds a permanent place in our hearts, and her memory continues to inspire and remind us just how special a truly great dog can be.
