Cories Heather



Many of you will not know Heather. She came to me from Ann Jordan (Cories Border Collies) when she was 2 years old. Ann had unsuccesfully tried to breed her and I had mentioned that if she ever sold her I would love to have her. 2 months later she was in Denmark.

Heather gave me 2 wonderful litters - amongst them an agility champion, an obedience champion and a breed champion.

Heather had an excellent temperament and got on with all dogs. Unfortunately Whizz did not like her and after a major argument when I was away I had to separate the girls - there was no going back. Heather stayed with my brother from when she was 5 until 13,5 when she came back to me - my brother lives on the 3rd floor with very slippy stairs. He gave her a perfect life - any dog would have been envious. She always came back to me for New Years as she would MOOOOOOOOO when they had firework displays in Copenhagen...and then Whizz would become a city dog for a month every year.

Heather - thank you for everything xxx

Ja, så sidder vi her igen med en tåre trillende ned ad kinden. Smukke gamle Moo - vi vil altid mindes hende med glæde. Hun gav os vores dejlige Bessie.

Your brother is SOOO right!
Flot hyldest. Burde have en Kleenex-advarsel. Ramte i hvert fald mig lige i hjertekulen. Jeg synes farvel er så forfærdeligt svært. Sender varme tanker.

They all touch our lives no matter how long they live with us. How appropriate that she came back to you for the last few months of her life. We are sorry for you and your brother's loss. Luv from Bernadette and Dennis and all the Obay Shelties plus Tazz.

What a lovely dog. Such a sweet face. She reminds me of Abbey so much. So sorry she has gone, our sympathy to you and your brother. I love his comment in the middle of the montage.
