Past dogs

Harper

August 6, 2016 ~ December 4, 2019, aged 3 years.

Adenocarcinoma confirmed via ultrasound and biopsy

Harper was the most incredible athlete I have ever owned. She had the biggest impact on my life of any dog I've owned. Not only was she incredible on the field but she was an all around amazing, confident well-rounded dog. Everyone who met Harper absolutely loved her. She made her mark in lure coursing for 2019 finishing the year in the combined ranking tied for #10 with limited running. In December 2019, almost a month after winning BOB at the ASFA II, she was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma that had spread to her lungs, liver, spleen, pancreas and lymph nodes. There was nothing we could do to save her. We were completely devastated, especially with this happening on the heels of losing her mother only 4 months earlier.

We love you Harp Harp

Khoi

July 3, 2007 ~ September 19, 2019, aged 12 years.

Pulmonary Osteomas, Adenocarcinoma.

Khoi was my first show dog and my first dog purchased specifically for performance. I raised her as a puppy, but she retired after showing to be a spoiled companion with her owner Sam. She had a wonderful personality and had a temperament to die for. She lived to be just over the age of 12, so had a long lived life.

Khoi is deeply missed by her family.

Ember

April 23, 2012 ~ July 26, 2019, aged 7 years

Brain tumor confirmed via CT

In July of 2019, we were stunned to learn that our Ember was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Ember had just turned seven in April, so this was a complete shock to us. Ember was not an easy dog to live with and had an incorrect temperament for the breed, but despite her faults, we loved her just the same and gave her the best life we could.

May you finally rest in peace

Siege

March 23, 2009 ~ January 30, 2016, aged 6 years

Lymphoma confirmed via bloodwork and ultrasound

In early 2016, we lost our boy Siege suddenly. He was diagnosed with Lymphoma, but was too far spread for us to be able to provide further care. It was a hard hit for us as he had not yet

reached his seventh birthday. He opened me up to owning a male for

the first time and I couldn't have had a better dog to show me the way. He is deeply missed.

Run free sweet boy.

Mika

July 3, 2004 ~ November 28, 2013, aged 9 years.

Rectal Tumor confirmed via xray and palpation

At the end of 2013, we lost our Beloved Mika. She will be forever in our hearts and

minds as the best dog ever. She was truly one of a kind and deeply loved and cherished.

Rest in peace baby girl.
