Zoe, Nessie was the last of our "valley girls", what a ride we had with them all - Nessie, Gin-Gin, Beauty. How can we forget the Kentucky National when Nessie and Gin-Gin nearly vaulted into the fountain right in front of the CNN cameras. She could always outsmart Gin in taking her ball or stuffy and hiding them under the bed pillows. It is funny it is as if she waited for the new puppy to come to fill your heart the way Gin waited for Bombay and Venetia. I guess we all should never underestimate our beloved breed and the innate sense of duty and love they share with us.each and every day.
