Daisy, My Little Girl

[MD*GSP]

Rich, I cannot begin to describe how sorry I am to learn that you've lost your Daisy.

I hope you'll keep the recliner for the treasure that it is.

I have always owned Brits in my 78 years, always females, their unforgiving love and dedication. It always comes hard when they are gone forever.

Sorry for your loss of Daisy

I would like to thank everyone here for your kind words of support. They mean a lot to me as it's more difficult than I imagined it would be and I knew it would be very hard. Daisy was always with me, if i had errands to run she went for a ride, she shared my cereal in the mornings and of course she shared the recliner as we hunted vicariously all over the world. This is the first time I haven't had a dog to share my day with and to be honest it's rather lonely without one. While I look forward to Ike coming in May if I had my way I'd be on my way to Wisconsin for a female pup today. I know I can't replace Daisy and each dog is their own special gift.

Please give your friends a scratch for Daisy and myself for they are here for to short a time.

I took Parker and Fox out this afternoon for a scratch hunt at my club and scored 8 birds. As I promised we dedicated it to the memory of Daisy and all the other past bird dogs of members of the PGCA and ones from my past. I am starting a tradition this year of a memorial Xmas week bird hunt. Our hunting buddies are'nt around long enough. Shooting a Parker of course.

Audrey as been after me to get the freezer cleaned out some so yesterday I took all the pheasants (about 20 birds) out to thaw. A bunch of friends got together for a fry and a few beers. Daisy pointed and retrieved every one of those birds. We had a meal in her honor.
