We said goodbye to Faith today. Like the kindly lady she was, she just went to sleep and then slipped away in my arms. She was 14. This is my first Sussex to cross the rainbow bridge...and ouch, it hurts. I will greatly miss her hourly woo woos and howling. I am so grateful she passed with peace and graciously saved me that awful, last trip to the vet clinic. She was a lovely, very thoughtful dog. She was the undisputed Queen of Couch Potatoes, the perfect house diva, and I will forever be thankful to Don Krueger for sending her to me.
Faith won 10 championship points before she had to be spayed during a csection for litter #2, which abruptly ended her show pursuits. She leaves behind 4 champion daughters, MBISS GCHB Marv, CH Rogue, CH Twinky and CH Margery (Large Marge), and 10 CH grand-puppies. Her wonderful legacy of fantastically long and luxurious ears and very sweet, gentle temperaments lives on.
Fly high and be free, Faithy! I already miss you terribly. We will meet again.
