Saying goodbye, again

CH Lyberty Star Spangled Banner
7/25/05 - 1/19/12
Star lost her battle with lymphoma later last night. In true Star fashion, she went on her own accord. She had rapidly declined over the last day and we had made the decision to take her to the vet today and say good bye. Star was from our first litter and was my first bred-by champion. She took the ring by storm and seemed to tell the Judges to "pick me". She was our mouthy trouble maker who we often joked should have been named "I didn't do it" or "it wasn't me". We will miss you sweet, silly girl. You are pain free now sweet girl and can run free with Maggie and Rudy.....cancer sucks

I hate that you had to go through this again! No one should have to do this - much less twice. I am so sorry. It will get better, never easy, but better.

So very sorry Laura. It is just cruel that you've had to go through two losses so close together!
