6/27/96 - 8/29/13
I wanted to let you know that Tom & I helped our sweet boy Miller cross the rainbow bridge last Thursday on 8/29. What a great life we shared. Miller was my second Beardie and he is the reason I fell in love with agility. Agility seems like a distance past to me, as he lived for over 17 years and retired when he was 10. Miller and I always had a great time when we ran agility together. He loved to bark and let everyone know it was “Miller Time” and he was out there running and they weren't. I can still see his beautiful coat flying as he ran around the ring. Back in the day when you had to do a down on the table his elbows would be up off the table but the judge could never seem to see it, but I knew. He was just ready to get off that table.
Miller was always by me whatever I was doing. I called him my assistant chef (always under my feet in the kitchen) & my water melon taster. Boy did he love his water melon. I always said to him that I watched over him and he watched over me. We took care of each other. My heart is aching now but I’m so glad I have all those wonderful memories to get me by. There is a piece of my heart that will always belong to Miller, my very special boy. Love you Miller.
