Soon, another will be in the works, for my lab Mattie who is going on 15, and is not long for this world, My wife suggested I have it done. It will be a hammer gun of course grade two with picture of mature dog on floor plate and left lock picture of her a two months old and on the right lock picture of her at two years old. Also on the floor plate the dates 10/12/98--- ? It's the least I can do for such a great companion all these years! I am trying to figure out who to do the engraving. Gary

I considered using a Fox but it in the end it just had to be a Parker. That is one nice looking Fox and I know how much that gun will be cherished.

I'm sure she takes great pride in her duties as guardian of the household. She is a fine looking companion.

She has all the spunk she always had, just the back legs won't work very good she falls a lot, Vet says she has Cushin's a degenerative muscle disorder lot of trouble getting up and down but still does her business outside. I can tell you this if people had the devotion and love that a dog does it would be a better world! Gary
