for those who have left us...

Sidney, our first Vizsla, was lost to cancer after 2 long years of chemo.  She was a trooper until the end in 2002, at 5 years of age.  Chester, our first weim, left us in July, 2009.  She almost made 12.  Then the next year, we had to say goodbye to our "Sweet-Pea", Sierra.  We also lost her over the July 4th weekend in 2010.  She was 10 and was out of our first Vizsla litter.

"Rose" left us suddenly on Sept 11, 2011 right after we participated in the 10-year "9/11" memorial downtown.  She was just 9 1/2 years and had a mysterious heart issue arise that she could not recover from.  We were devastated by her sudden loss.  She was one of our "April Fools" babies, born on that day on 2002.  We lost one of our girls in the picture above, Mikey, on May 7, 2012.  Mikey is our "Weimviz", her mom is a weimaraner and her dad a Vizsla. Visit her page.  2014 had been a tough year for us personally, we lost both of our senior girls, Turbo and Reno.  These girls brought us so much joy and happiness over the years and we will treasure our memories of them forever.  Turbo was our top AKC title holder across all venues while Reno was our top show winner with multiple group placements over her show career.  Both made it to almost 13 1/2 years.  2016 was another tough year and we had to say goodbye to two more of our girls, "Kayla", our runaway girl as we referred to her after her getting lost two days back in 2011, what a nightmare but we got her back, then she gave us a scare the same year and had a life-threatening heart issue that we got her through and then we called her our miracle girl.  Now she has joined her sister, Rose, our other "April Fools" baby, born on April Fools Day in 2002.  in addition to Kayla, we lost our Charlie - "Bucket head" - in May, just 8 weeks later, at age 10 1/2.  her loss was very hard as we thought she had more years to share with us.  2017 has started out with us saying goodbye to the last of our April Fools babies, "Star", the last of the three sisters we kept out of that 2002 litter so "Star" has joined her two other sisters at the ripe old age of 15yrs.  We then tragically lost our beloved Breezy at just 4 years to pneumonia in March, 2017.
Sadly we lost our senior weim, Chase, 2019 October.  She is the last of our line.
