| On March 3rd, 1998 I have had my first babies
after "Ugo dit SAMSON de la Morne Plaine", three males and three females, all of them black and, of course, with the necessary
double dew claws. My owner said that concerning the weights it is a well-balanced litter.
Besides she mentioned that I've done great work: in just 2 hours and 15 minutes I have
born 6 puppies. It will be that way when she says so. And I must admit that she has
assisted me perfectly and I could rely on her completely. Only two males, "Chivas Regal" and "Clochard" remained in Austria. The others were taking more or less far away trips: "Celine" to California, "Champagne" to Australia, and "Chloé" to Canada, "Chaos" is in Sweden. "Clochard", our nestling, left his native place on May 1st, 1998 and has began his new life in the county Upper Austria. "Chivas Regal" has left our house on 05/03/1998, to continue his further life in the county Carinthia. "Celine" and "Chloé" have left their native places on 05/21/1998, travelling to France with my human. There "Celine" was given to her owner on 05/23/1998, and left France in direction to California on 05/25/1998. "Chloé" left my boss on 05/24/1998 to spend one more day in Paris and then leave to Toronto to her new owner. "Chaos" was picked up from his owner on 12/11/1998 and left Austria by air way on 12/14/1998. "Champagne" had the longest trip: she went to Sydney on 02/23/1999, where she spent 30 days in quarantine before she continued her trip to Toowoomba, again by air line. |

All
of a sudden life turned to the very bad side for three persons: for my human and for the
owners of my son "Chivas Regal": On Aug. 25th, 1998 the boy died - he ran
into the car of his owner and was immediately dead. What a terrible accident on the own
farm, what a tragedy for his owner who is a vet. Hard to believe that little "Chivas Regal" is on the rainbow bridge now, so young, just 9 days before he would
have turned 6 months of age. Much too early!!! He just opened his eyes, he just started
recognizing his surrounding, he just began to eat additional food himself, he just began
to run around and play with his litter mates as well as with Samson and me, he just left
the house, ....... and now??? He will never run around again, he will never drive crazy
again when he meets his owners and us, there will be no more a wagging tail from little "Chivas Regal" and a kiss when he's cuddled, ..... We thank heaven that he did not
have to suffer from pain, but still we can't believe it. We never saw "Chivas Regal" again since he left the kennel, we only know that his owners were so
pleased with him, full of love for this boy. In one part of my human's heart she has kept
his last pictures and she'll never forget him. All we can do now is remembering some
wonderful 2 months with "Chivas Regal" while growing up from a helpless puppy to a
wonderful boy. ..... |

| But we can also report about real nice things, about an adventure our human had: she spent 8 days in Canada with the Harpers, Aiden and my daughter "Chloé", but also lots of friends - well known and new ones. She really enjoyed that time. "Chloé" knew her when they met at the airport - the little girl drove crazy! My human says that "Chloé" is as furry as I am and she also says that in several movements she saw me. We saw lots of pictures from the "Canadian Adventure", and now we all can really understand why our human wants to go there again, to spend more time full of fun with the Harpers and their gang. I would love to join her on her next trip to Canada in the year 2000, but I have heard her say that only our smallest gang member, the Yorkie-girl "Gizmo" is going to join her. How sad, I would have liked to see my daughter again. |
