Bluegrass of Tonispada's pedigree
Astrid died unexpectedly of bloat (gastric torsion) last year, 2010. The suddenness of her passing and and her relative youth when she went are still a source of grief. She was one of the most sociable, affectionate and intelligent dogs I have ever had. Why do these things happen?
Léopold du Jardin bleu du Mandarin de Pékin's pedigree
Bred in France, Tristan was my first shar-pei. A loving companion, he was only lightly shown as he was not very partial to dog-shows. Tragically, he died far too young in an accident. At least he lives on in his descendants.

Yseult De La Dynastie Han's pedigree
Bred in Belgium, Fuchsia was a singleton. Wary with strangers, she was nonetheless a wonderful and loving companion. Like her father, she was killed in tragic circumstances, after which I made sure that the garden was escape-proof. She lives on in her descendants and is much missed.
