What can I say about Flyer?
He was an incredible spirit and a talented dog with heart. He woke up every day knowing that it was going to be a better day than yesterday and that he would enjoy every minute.
I always said I should be more like him. He was an accomplished dog in all venues and loved to compete because we asked him to. He had a leg amputated at 8 for cancer and lived for another 4 years greeting each day with the same joy he did when he had 4 legs. Flyer was truly an inspiration to me and I was very lucky to enjoy his world with him.

Boone joined our family in 2009 at 3 years old under the saddest of circumstances . . . his owner, Sharon Rich, passed away from ovarian cancer at age 52.  I’m honored that Sharon entrusted me with Boone’s future, and grateful for the excellent foundation she gave him.   Always a fun yet capable dog in training and competition, Boone matured into a gracious service dog as well.  Coming out of show retirement when he was nearly 10 years old, Boone won a JAM in Best of Breed at the 2015 National Specialty, and he continued to enjoy a fun and active life until we reluctantly sent him along to meet Sharon at the Rainbow Bridge just two weeks before his 11th birthday.
