1) Cocker Spaniel
Most docile of breeds (I guess); wags tail To Be LIked.. often--check.

2) An vastly-over-Fed C.S.--check.

3)

Ms. Bang is best known for her lifelike depiction of the Cocker Spaniel. Her intimate knowledge of this breed stems from years of breeding and showing. For the past 10 years however, she has devoted her efforts to the rescue and rehabilitation of abandoned dogs in her area.

A cohort, thus.. Brownie Points, too.
(Her website apparently doesn't think she be daid. Who ya gonna Call: Ghostbusters?)

Very many acolytes exist re The Rainbow Bridge. Across all demographics and faux-enlightenments.

(And.. since it is an unvarnished-Miracle! for All to See:
"that there IS Anything At All / and then: some creature to Notice that fact?")

Loss of a/any beloved pet created the Need for this icon.
And, I note--even many of the over-educated / or the oft emotionally tongue-tied--cleave to that idea of,

(A perfectly natural/disdainful response, too: to the purely-mechanical nature of George Booleishness, IMO)

I deem this actually less-silly than.. most of the myths of the Sigma-Corporate-religion-things.
Maybe because.. in my cognomen for [the Absolute?] resides the notion that the essence of 'Love' just may be the only
Certainly-corrrect underlying-force ... behind there Being a, er 'Universe' at all. Why Else?

Squeak! ... how unSpeakably great to. see. you. again! . . . just have to ask you about, what you really Meant when you ____?

So don't knock that Bridge, until you've walked a few hundred miles in its Domain, eh?
(All the noise of the daily maya can't hold a candle to ... what is Imaginable, I wot. Rest case.)

is manifestly laughable, by any lights! whereas..
the question of any veracity/verisimilitude?--is forever consigned to that file, indeterminate.
(Dunno what Leibniz's take might have been--maybe surprising. He be daid, too--but if that's no impediment, maybe we can ask him?)

Jeez.. shades of Manfred

I, Meta-
I contain multitudes. Too.

--unless you're someone's pet.

Don't be Thor, though--but you seem to have the wrong bridge in mind.
(Have not enquired if--when one is a-Rainbow-gnostic
--there are any credential-enforcement Trolls beneath the nonexistent bridge-space.)

er, Arf.. Arf..
