Sharon,
As you know we lost Molly October 29, 2011she was 14 1/2 years old.
Molly was out of Wylwind the First Ending CD TD and Hillside's
Firecracker CD TD. She was was born January 31, 1997 and was out of the
spice litter, (Hillside Sugar Spring Sage Molly).
Not only was it love at first sight between my family and Molly it
was also the beginning of a long and wonderful friendship with your
family!
You suggested I write a tribute to Molly...which I
have sat down many times to do...I could never get the words to express
Mollys spirit, grace and accomplishments adequately. Anything lacking in
Mollys accomplishments are our fault...never Mollys. Molly did what we
asked of her never hesitating always giving.
I have one word to describe Molly Rue..simply put...Molly is LOVE!
The definition of love is...Love is a virtue representing all human
kindness, compassion and affection. The only problem with that
definition is it says human kindness....Molly must have been more than
human because she excelled at all of virtues!
She never met a stranger, was always a happy bouncy girl loving
every person or animal she met...and making all who saw her smile and
give her a scratch and pat.
Molly gave us so much and made us
better people by simply being in our lives. As Molly got older she loved
to float on a raft at the lake, snuggle in our arms, take car rides and
mostly be loved and cherished by all of her friends and family.
A bit ago I went to the pet garden to visit Molly (she has cabbage
roses and pansys on her bed), I told her she is forever loved and
girlfriend I will see you at the bridge. What a wonderful girl.
Sharon, thank you for bringing such love into our lives. Dorothy Northern

"Gypsy" was always so full of life, really to give it her all. As a puppy, she was spoken for twice and the buyer had to back out..so I took her to field train with me...She jumped in the water like she did it all her life. My friend, Yvonne, was drooling on how great this puppy was, so I sent her home with her. Never regretted that decision. She was from the "Egg" litter and I was co-breeder of...Yvonne named her Wanderin Easter Egg since she was born on Easter and seem to have no home when she went home with her. "Gypsy" & Yvonne wenton to achieve titles in field :WC & WCX in same day, a SH with 3 legs on MH,in Obedience:a CDX, in rally a RE.\In conformation:, CCA , and In Agility: a leg on JWW.... This girl was every sense of the word VERSATILITY. She never had any puppies because too busy with other stuff. Yvonne will deeply miss her.....
Memories........ Gypsy 04-16-06 to
07-05-11
"Hey, hey..... hey-yup!! I
yelled, as I threw two long bumpers for Hooker and Truman. Then, I
heard three splashes, not two. Gypsy,
that 12 week
old puppy, had bravely jumped into the pond trying to compete with the
older dogs that were swimming for fun bumpers! I hurriedly threw a third bumper
over her head hoping she would not try to follow the older dogs into deep
water. She returned to me with that bumper which was too large for
her little mouth. Her first time in the water was a surprise to all of us
and to herself. I talked Sharon
into letting me take that puppy home with me for just one week. That one
week became five years of fun, enjoyment and lots of
love.
She gave and gave and gave...... always trying to
please. At 8 months of age she titled in Obedience Novice. She
titled in Obedience Open. Then came Rally titles, Agility trials, WC/WCX and the
the love of her life was the hunt tests, both AKC and HRC.
At the present time, she needs 1 pass
for a HRC Champion title, and 2 passes for an AKC Master Hunter
title. I certainly hope she can attain those on the other side
of the Rainbow Bridge because she crossed it today.
I realized something might
be wrong during her last hunt test. She retrieved the duck from
the pond, but seemed to use it as a floating device to help her get
back to the handler. Today, four weeks later cancer took her
life.
Thanks to everyone who so patiently helped me with her
training. I know she is waiting for our "HEY, Hey, Hey-yup!",
at the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.

EVERY CLOUD DOES HAVE A SILVER LINING
**********************************************************************
"My best friend closed her eyes last night,
As her head was in my hand.
The Doctors said she was in pain,
And it was hard for her to stand.
The thoughts that scurried through my head,
as I cradled her in my arms,
Were of her younger, puppy years,
And Oh!...her many charms.
Today, there was no gentle nudge,
With an intense "I Love YOU" gaze.
Only a heart that's filled with tears,
Remembering our joy-filled days.
But, an Angel just appeared to me,
And he said, "CRY NO MORE,
GOD also loves our canine friends...
He's installed a "doggy door". "
