Ragtime Sarah 8/28/1998 - 11/21/2011
Sarah had a stroke a couple of weeks ago. Her dad had the same thing so I knew what was coming. She actually did better for a while. Started eating and walking with us, although her head was twisted to one side. She got steadily worse. Finally it was time to let her go.
Sarah was an accidental puppy and a singleton. I confess, as a puppy, I let her cuddle in bed with me on occasion and she would snuggle up to me with her head on my neck - a border collie muff! She wanted to please, but never could get the hang of an outrun.
She was reluctant to run on the sled team. She would go a few steps and pull back. I bought a "springer" device to attach to a bicycle and worked with her alone. She became a very enthusiastic little sled dog!
She may have had some annoying habits, but she was totally my girl and I do miss her.
