Tribute to Weaver - A Very Special Boy

Tuesday May 15th, 2018

This morning while at work I got a message from Amber saying that Weaver passed away sometime during the night. It is never easy for me to hear of the loss of any of "my puppies", but this loss hit so hard that I had to come home to spend the day in bed cuddling with my dogs, particularly Weaver's younger sister, Jive. 

​Weaver was the singleton pup from the first breeding between Levi x Freya, the very beginning of my combining my show lines with working lines.  That was such an uncertain time for me as I wasn't sure what the future would bring. However, Weaver made it easier because he was so easy to love with his big personality. He lived with me for the first few months of his life before going to live with Amber Welch and Jeff Powers.  During those months he stole my heart, something he would repeat over and over again with anyone who got to know him.  


Some dogs are special due to their accomplishments in the show ring or on the trail etc. but when you put all that aside you are left with the dog you live with day in and day out. That is when you realize, especially as a breeder, just how important temperament and personality are and Weaver was "Best in Show" when it came to these things. A wonderful ambassador for the breed, Weaver was a perfect blend of his parents with Levi's incredible intelligence and Freya's sweet, love everyone, personality. When you met Weaver, he would put his paws up on you, look you straight in the face and start talking to you. He always had a great story to tell you and before you knew it, he had stolen your heart. That was Weaver's specialty - stealing people's hearts - and because of that Weaver will always hold a special spot in my heart as I know he will with Amber and Jeff.
