It is with a very sad heart that I write that I have lost my darling Sassie.   Sassie was pick of bitch from my very first litter, she was a fine built but muscular bitch and extremely playful.  She grew into an elegant Lady and had a very maternal nature, was always loving, obedient and so loyal.  
 
Sassie had two litters, she is the mother of Posh and Beckham, and laterally took it upon herself to mate with Harrison and gave me Betty Boop a harlequin bitch.  
 
Sassie had a very protective nature where her babies were concerned, whilst she was happy for me to get as involved as much as I liked, she always had that look in her eye if others got too close!  She was very ill whilst feeding the latest litter but was still the diligent, attentive mum, she loved nothing more than to be around her babies and me, often stressing if the litter spread themselves out too much, she would give me that look - asking me to bring them all in a little closer for her.

In the showring she was always a performer, attentive in standing and powerful on the move but with all the elegance of a beautiful Lady.  Sassie had several wins in the ring including being placed 3rd in Sp Yearling at Crufts and Reserve Best Blue Bitch at MWEGDC Colour Format - being beaten only by her mother Lulu. 
 
She had a few beatings from her sister Jade and had been patched up by our vet, Sarah, more than once but given the chance she would still have gone back for more, I think she considered herself to be the pack leader of the litter but unfortunately Jade had other ideas.
 
Sassie was loved by all that met her and she was always willing for a game of fetch or just to lay beside you.  I will never forget her eyes, they expressed her every mood; her protective instinct, willingness to please and the muscle definition in her back legs.  Sassie was a joy to live with and I am devastated that we didn't get to share our old age together but so pleased to have shared my life with her.  
 
Thank you Sassie for blessing me with your babies and for your love.  
We will meet again at Rainbow Bridge - Love you my Sassie Cow Bag xxxxxxxxxxxx
