As already told, it does mean Rainbow bridge. I would google the term and read the poem that started the whole concept. It is a beautiful poem...wish I had the direct link, but please do google it...you wont regret it. It is a poem about a dog that passes away and is now in green pastures and enjoying life and waiting for his master to join him (or something to that effect). It started the term rainbow bridge or, now referred to as the bridge. I guess you could say it means doggy heaven. Basically, it is just a comforting thought for those who have lost beloved pets...... Marsha
