Sorry I have to vent and tell my story of my girl - I am tired of hurting 
with my broken back and crying for four days straight.

My Diddit - Covy-TuckerHill HighSierra KD TC, OFA H&E died in my arms on 
Friday afternoon.   A beautiful black and red Firecracker daughter out of my 
parents Mandy who was granddaughter of Ghostbuster and Conan.  Born April 
29, 1996 on my 1 year anniversary of marriage to my husband - guess where I 
was<LOL>!!?!!

She was my hip attachment.  From the time she was a few days old and didn't 
even have her eyes open - if I came in the room she would crawl her best to 
the side of the box and cry for me - EVERYTIME.  Cappy and Gloria always 
kept pick of the litter and she was pick - my heart sunk until they asked 
which one we wanted and they said ok, but only if you show her:)  I could 
not and would not do anything without her.  She mostly even went  to work 
with me.  I think over the 11 1/2 years I was away from her 3 months 
combined in her life.  I think that might even be a stretch.  Like taking 
Cassie to the Nationals and when Diddit went to her first Nationals when she 
was 6 months and 3 days with Grandpa and Grandma:)  She left home for a week 
and a half - I thought I would die then - but she had a GREAT time:)

Diddit was the most beautiful girl in the world.  She was not a specialty 
girl - so we had our fun in the allbreed ring.  She placed 3rd in her 
futurity (great front and stack but not much rear) out of 7 under Gail 
Sprock.  She missed 3 - 3 point majors by 1 bitch each time.  She did go to 
Santa Cruz without me and went BOB over specials (including my Dad's 
Quake<EG>) and on to a Group 3.   I took her to a 'important' allbreed match 
in Las Vegas when she was in heat to be bred and she went Best In Show Match 
over many 'important' allbreed dogs and their progeny.  We always went to 
the Reno shows to support our local club and the Judge who was the BISM 
judge couldn't believe she was there.  He was judging BIS and hoped we would 
make it in.  Well we went BOB but I couldn't get the CHOW HOUNDS mouth off 
the ground in group with all that bait those people use<LOL>.  We didn't 
make it in and he said he would have loved to have put her up and sorry I 
couldn't keep her nose off the ground.  I stopped showing her because we 
couldn't have puppies with her.  We tried everything except taking her to UC 
Davis for surgery. She was a GREAT MAMA to Cassie though - I brought Cassie 
home at 9 weeks old and Diddit was at day 62 and trying to whelp.  She took 
her in and loved her dearly!

She laid in the bathroom when I put on makeup or showered.  I loved to sit 
on the couch between Diddit and Cassie for endless hours of hugs and pets. 
She used to jump on Scotts chair from behind and roll the chair and him over 
because he wouldn't get up and get her cookie<LOL>  I loved that:)  She 
loved my son from the time he arrived and let him maul her.  Couldn't 
imagine my boy without his Shepherd Shepherd as he called her:)  He was mad 
at the vets for not bringing her back out when I dropped her off on Thursday 
for evaluation - he yelled at them bring Diddit NOW!  So much for 
manners<G>.  The next day I had to make my decision and I know it is right, 
but it will never feel that way.  The whole family had time to say their 
goodbye's - even my son who hugged her and then ran to me and said 'I'm 
sorry mama - it will be ok now.'  Then they all left but my Dad and I - He 
said he brought her in to this world he is going to be there with her final 
breath too.  I brought her home to lay next to my 3 week old puppy I had to 
put down a few months ago.  Cassie gave her a final kisses goodbye too.  Now 
Cassie and I just sit on the couch and hug and pet.  Cassie is grieving too.

My Baby girl is gone and it was sudden.  As much as I am hurting I loved her 
even more.  She was the ultimate special girl and my hearts joy and love. 
She gave to me everything she was and is with all of her heart and soul and 
would have given more if she had any more to give.  I love you my girl and 
take care of that pup - you know how to grow them up right!
