In Memory of "Bear"

June 2, 2010

 

As many of you know, our sweet Bear had been having a hard time lately.

After overcoming heartworm disease, beating cancer, nearly drowning, she always seemed to rally again and surprise us with her gumption. This time, however, she was unable to tackle her illness. Last weekend she was unable to walk. Without doing any invasive testing, the vet at Penn seemed pretty sure that she had a brain tumor. Steroids were prescribed, and in true Bear fashion, she rallied once again.

The past 10 days have been difficult: she has been unable to stand on her own at times, and unwilling to walk further than necessary. She splatted several times (stubborn as she was, she just didn't get the idea to stay on the very many rugs that we had placed all over the slippery floors for her). Last night was probably her best since going to Penn, and she even took a little walk up the street. But when I got up to take her out this morning, she was unable to walk. Seeing her struggle to pull herself up made the decision easy. After a meal of scrambled eggs, steak (she was still able to raise her lip at Bounce when he came near her), cornbread and BBQ chicken, all laced with a few valium, we took her to the lawn behind the vet's and sat under a tree and let her go.

All of our dogs are special. We love them all. Bear was not the prettiest girl we ever saw, but she certainly had the biggest heart. But Bear had a special place so deep in my heart, I can't imagine being without her.

In Memory Of

Sir Jake of Hartranft, CD, CGC, Therapy Dog, OA, OAJ, PD1, RL1, RL2
July 17, 1997 to May 3, 2010

What can you say about Jake, except that he was “All Heart”.  He is remembered by everyone who knew him for his wagging tail, goofy antics, barking, and tongue hanging out of the side of his mouth. Everyone has a "Jake story"  He loved to dress up and be an ambassador, even being Santa's reindeer pulling a sleigh when Y2K9s delivered treats to the PSPCA one Christmas. When Jake and I discovered agility, which we enjoyed together for 7 years, he found what he was meant to do. That was FUN and every night until the night before he died, he had to play agility in his yard.

He is sorely missed by me, Andy, Quiz, Flash and Casey, as he runs and jumps with Rowdy over the bridge.

In Memory of
ARCH-EX Braveheart of West Moreland, CD, RE, RLV, RL1X, RL2X2, RL3X, AX, AXJ, PD1, NAC, OJC, NTC
"Abby"

From the moment we brought you home, I realized how special you were – afraid of the world, shy to the core, yet so endearing and loving.  Instructors would look at you and comment, “She’ll make you a fine pet.”  Fourteen years later you left a legacy – your CD, AKC Excellent titles in Agility, and the coveted ARCH-EX in Rally.  Abby – you overcame your fears and taught me so much about how to help you conquer the world.  Thank you for the lessons you taught me and for showing the world that you are:  Braveheart of West Moreland.  You captured my heart; I miss you dearly.  Until we meet again…

In Memory of
Winjammer's Hustle
January 27, 2010

A Tribute by Julie Norman Jenkins:

For Hustle:
White face smile. Kind, playful companion.

Hustle was with me for a long time, through some hard times in my life, and always was a steadfast rock to lean on and give comfort. She let us know that she was ready to go, and slipped peacefully to the other side on Jan 27, 2010. She was 16 years, 8 months, and 18 days old, but who's counting?

Her sister sprint left behind an impressive list of titles and accomplishments. hustle's list was more modest. But that isn't what's important. Titles don't make a dog, and Hustle was proof of that.

She was the perfect pet and always seemed to be trying her best to just be a good girl. Endlessly patient, like her mama, Zig, she definitely taught me lessons in that respect.

she was a great mother and produced many wonderful pups who became "once in a lifetime" dogs to their human companions. hustle passed on her loving, calm personality and her beautiful structure and working ability to all her pups (and grand-pups)

Hustle was a trooper, ready to go anywhere and do anything, she made friends wherever she went. I'll miss her, and I hope I get a chance to see her again some day

"BRAVA"
1/5/2010

I write you to tell you that Brava is no longer with us.  What a joy and happy spirit she was. She was a lesson in always making lemonade out of life's lemons. I stand up and applaud her and all the happiness she gave me.  I will toast her memory, salute her photos and keep her in my heart.
