Athena

(New York)

My wife and I lost our best friend on 10/31/07.

Her name was Athena and loved to play hard and ride in the boats with us.

She came into my life when I was in Missouri. Then she moved with me to Upstate NY and there
she took charge of the woods. She always played
with all the animals.

But the thing I miss the most is her next to me like glue. And the looks... just like if she could speak she would have the answer.

She never missed a beat. AM breakfast she was always there, or if she was thinking she might miss something she would sit there and look at me.

She was sooo good with kids and other dogs. My wife has a cat and Athena loved her too. What a show when they played!

As my wife would say, she was our guard dog. It was always so funny... she could hear or see things way before we did!

She went every place we did and was our little girl.

I know she is now in a safe and fun place running around.


Athena We love you.
