So sorry to hear about Yardley. It is hard to lose one at any age. Thinking of you. Carolyn It is with sadness I announce the passing of Ch. Windwalker's Yardley, TC, ROM, OFA H&E. He died in his sleep last night. Yardley was my "easy" dog....easy keeper, easy to finish (2 5pt majors) easy around the house and in the kennel because he was so neat about his surroundings and himself....always tidy. He achieved the ROM title easily with only 10 litters. And now he has made it easy for me in his passing by going softly to sleep. One of the unsung heroes of the breed....not flashy, not spectacular to look at, but he was possibly my best mover and producer...I will miss his constant presence and the kindly look in his eyes. He would have been 12 years old this June. Jamie ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
