It has been eight years since Courage (Kahlua de la Maison du Garde-Barrière), at the age of twelve, had to be euthanized with the help of my trusted veterinarian due to the severe pain she experienced following a hip dislocation she suffered at one year old. I was with her from her first breath at birth until her last. It hurt to let the last Briard from my breeding program go. With that, the "de la Maison du Garde-Barrière" book closed forever. Courage, you will live on in my heart forever.

Twenty-five years ago, my Sándor (Rec. Champ. SÁNDOR von Anitzberg) passed away peacefully in his sleep after midnight, following our last evening walk. I miss the pack leader as much as I did on the first day. The glow of a burning candle is meant to show him that I'm thinking of him.
