Dusty had milk and adopted the tiny puppies and a few<br />

days later, daughter Tempe came into milk and wanted to<br />

help.<br />

Both these dogs worked in palliative care bringing joy to<br />

many. Some of Tempe's ashes were buried with a patient<br />

who loved her.<br />

Mother and daughter shared nursing duties, swapping<br />

puppies from time to time. It was a lot of fun and the end<br />

result is we permanently "adopted" Tara from the litter.<br />

She went on to become Ch Loramax Taja Euclase CDX<br />

TDX and in 2001 was awarded The Royal Canine<br />

Council of <strong>NSW</strong>'s Hero Of The Year for her work in<br />

Palliative Care.<br />

All have since crossed the Rainbow Bridge, breaking<br />

hearts in the process. But <strong>Shepherd</strong>s are addictive and<br />

whilst wonderful kids cannot be replaced, we tend to all<br />

go and get another one, or two, or more.<br />

How many of you have special memory piccies to share<br />

with the rest of us <strong>Shepherd</strong> addicts?<br />

PS Loved the Noah story, that one will always be<br />

remembered.<br />
