Libby

Libby was a Border Collie x.  She was one of our rescues.  Darren found her on the highway not far from our house.  He stood there in the cold and pursuaded her to come to him.

 

I'll never forget hearing the doorbell ring.  I opened the door and there stood Darren with this little quivering bundle of fur in his arms.  "Can we help her?"  yep.  We helped her, adopted her and loved her for her entire life.

 

Libs was about a year old, emaciated, couldn't keep food down and just plain scared.

 

Carefully we nursed her back to health.  She became a lovely little family member and, a great little trial girl for Darren.  She adored Darren!

 

Libby was Darren's first ever dog to train.  She tried everything he asked of him, her whole being centered on pleasing him.

 

We lost Libby to a brain tumor.  She passed in Darrens arms, the same way she came into our household.

 

Rest well little one, you will see him again.
