| This Page Is Dedicated To My Beloved "Heather" |
| I dreaded the day this page would be created, but I never thought it would be for Heather. Everyone that knows me knew Heather was my pride and joy. Heather gave me three beautiful litters and she passed away three days after giving birth to her last litter from a retained puppy. Heather was the most comical dog I have ever seen and brought me much joy to watch. As a pup she dug holes in my walls remodeling. She's also did demolition work on the linoleum floors. Upon moving to Oklahoma, Heather decided she knew how to lay concrete and scattered a bag of mix all over the floors. Of course I panicked of whether or not anyone ate it. She was the sweetest girl and even knew how to lead the others in her version of "singing". I will never get over the loss of my Heather and I still can't believe she's gone forever. She will be GREATLY missed. |
December 16, 2006--January 4, 2010
| Heather at 8 wks just looking for trouble to get into. |
| Heather at 16 wks when her curiosity was just starting to bloom. |
| Heather at 6 mos. This is when her "singing" career (howling in my opinion) began. |
| Heather at 1 yr. Her beauty has arrived and she was in full bloom |
| Heather playing dress up even though she wasn't the dress up type(she was more of a tom boy). |
| Heather's first litter pretty as can be just like their mom. |
| Heather's 2nd litter just as wacky as their mom. My Pepper is from this litter. |
| Heather being a surrogate for another momma who had no milk. She had a technique of nursing that was all her own. |
| Heather's 3rd and final litter. Born 12-31-09 This litter is being raised by several of my girls and of course ME. |
| Be happy, Heather, and know you have been such a wonderful girl and I love you. No other can replace you even though I wish you could have stayed with me for eternity. |
| Heather was probably the most happy dog that I have. She never had a bad day. |
| THE ORPHANS They really are not orphans because they have so many hearts pulling for them and they're probably the most loved babies on the planet. They have so many moms that are making sure they get the love and nourishment they need. |
Brianna is their first chance at survival. She
was the only mom available to take over the
care of them when Heather passed. So
Brianna returned the favor of caring for pups
that didn't belong to her.

When Diamond had her pups, I had
every intentions of putting all four of
Heather's babies on Diamond. However,
I quickly realized 6 babies was too many
for Diamond to tend to properly. So
Diamond ended up with two of Heathers
plus her own two. These two Heather
babies will be raised with this litter.

Brianna is dried up and has no more
but body warmth to offer to the last
two babies. Tinkerbelle, still having
milk, has taken over the care of the
other two babies. She's being a good
girl and doesn't object to caring for
them, but like Brianna her birth babies
are old enough to wean which means
Tinkerbelle won't have milk for long.
These two babies are patiently
awaiting Molly and Amber to have
their babies so they will have a
permanent mom til they are weaning
age.

Amber received the last Heather baby. You
can see her tiny little white butt, but she's
happily nursing on her new mommy. Amber is
such a great girl. She gave up one of her
babies to Molly so she could take on the
Heather baby. Amber had six and couldn't
afford to take an extra baby on so Toyota is
nursing on Molly.

| What Great Girls I have!!! All is finally balanced out and I am able to sleep thru the night. Sadly, two of Heather's four babies did not make it. However the two on Diamond is thriving and looking good!!! "Ego" is on my male's page. "Memory" was too small and was sold. |

Here is only a glimpse of how special Heather really was.
| Rosebuds Dedicated to all our "rosebuds" ..... When God calls little puppies to dwell with Him above, We humans always question the wisdom of His love. For no heartache can compare with the loss of one small 'child', Who does so much to make this world seem wonderful and mild. Perhaps God tires - always calling the aged to His fold, And so He picks a rosebud before it can grow old. God knows how much we need them and so He picks but few; To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult, yet somehow we must try, For the saddest word that mankind knows will always be "good-bye". And so when little pups depart; We, who are left behind, must realize how much God loves puppies.... For angels are hard to find. |
