Spice

We will never forget the first time we met you at Hand Me Down Dobes. We were standing at the counter when all of a sudden we heard one loud single “woof”. We turned around and there you were with those piercing brown eyes. You had us instantly because we knew your “woof” meant “take me”.

The next day we brought your first brother “Duke” to visit and he too, fell in love. We got you home and it didn’t take long to figure out how you became a stray. We found out that you were an escape artist who can flip open the latch of a gate and run like the wind, with your new brother in tow!

For the next ten years you ran the household, you were ruler of the roost. Outweighed by 30 pounds first by your brother Duke and later by your brother Rocky, you were one alpha lady. We will never forget the time Rocky mistakenly decided to sit in your cage! The picture says it all.

You brightened every day of our lives. One of our fondest memories is when your Dad had open heart surgery. When he came home from the hospital you watched over him night and day, forcing yourself to stay awake, sometimes nodding off but always reacting if I moved a muscle. You only left my side to eat and take care of business. It’s that type of unconditional love you gave that will always help us honor your life. We miss you dearly, but we have decided the best way we can honor your life is by adopting another Dobe; we are sure you will help us make the right choice.
