"Trevor"

Bred by Susan Strickland
Trevor just seemed to know
he was mine from the exact moment I told Susan I wanted
him. We had some fun and
excitement at the shows - some Best of Breeds and group
placements and he sired
a couple of champions, then lived a quiet life here at home.
When the time was right
for Trevor to have a retirement home, an older couple came to
visit and expressed an
interest in an older dog. Jack was in fragile health, but he and
Babs could hardly wait
to take Trevor home, but Trevor needed to be neutered and
recover from that and
an intestinal upset before he could leave. Jack and Babs came for
another visit, but Trevor
wasn't quite ready to leave just yet. Then about a week later, they
came to visit again and
this time, Jack just insisted that they should take Trevor home
that day.......... and
so he went.
Trevor adjusted very well
to his new home. He was most attentive and stayed very close
to Jack, who had become
weaker. Just two weeks after Trevor arrived, Jack died. Babs
and I thought that Jack
knew what was going to happen and wanted Trevor to be there
for Babs. He was - and
is still. Babs says that everyone who meets him wants to take
Trevor home with them,
but, of course, that is out of the question. He promised Jack to
take care of Babs.
