Nice to read your message Julie. I know how much of an Elzie fan you were and how you watched the pups grow up. Site's a lot busier than it was then so it's hard to keep up, anyway I hope you are well. :thumbsup:
Ella was a bloody brilliant dog - a true one in a million special dog that just gets under your skin.
I'll never forget this mad psycho curly tailed whippet singing it's head off on a wednesday night. I can't help but smile at god knows how many times Ella tore up a seatbelt or a dog lead with her enthusiasm.
Many a time there'd be a phonecall from Vicky ranting that Ella had emptied the bin, ate her lush bathbombs and had glittery poo etc etc.
But the biggest theft of all was the hearts she stole. :wub:
Like only a devoted dog can, Ella was there with Vicky through probably some of the hardest times one could go through. When your alone and everything in the world seems to be turning into a pile of crap, having a character like Ella give you a cuddle, a wag and a roo of enthusiasm is priceless.
Ella blessed Vicky, Mark and Me with her precious pups. The irony being that through her litter, Vicky found love and I'd like to think a good friend too. :thumbsup:
Anyone who doesn't know what these pups went on to achieve, seriously wants their head examining. For me though, the fact Dobs, so similar in personality to his mother also became my own ''guardian angel'' through life threatening situations is extremely humbling. Some may rate a dog by it's achievements on the track of which Avit and his brothers have given in abundance but nothing comes close to owning a dog that will stand right by your side no matter what happens.
Which is why it has took me an absolute eon to write some words that I hope bring comfort to both Vicky and Mark who I know are truly heartbroken because you've lost such a dear friend.
I'm so, so sorry Ella had to go but you did what was needed when the time came. It took immense courage from you both and for what it's worth, me and Tony don't think she lived a day ''too long''.
Whilst you may feel like she was stolen and I can't blame you for feeling like this at all. I do have my doubts about how Ella ''Queen Bee'' of the household would of took to becoming an oldie. I can't of imagined ''madam'' becoming deaf, poor sighted and hobbling with old age and whilst it might not of been what you wanted, I do ponder that maybe it was right for Ella.
Rest In Peace, Beautiful Ella. You made your mark on the track, in your offspring and most of all, in our hearts.
