Goodbye to Wire Fox Terrier


On the photo to the left is Mahilia (now called Mille) together with Christine. She has now her new home on Amager.
On the photo to the right is Luna together with Torben. She lives now in Gilleleje.

It has been a hard time - because I did not succeed to live in peace with my fox terriers. Jackson has always been a peaceful dog, but I had problems with the bitches.
First I had to give Mahilia to a good family, when I kept her puppy Luna at home.
Luna and Jackson had a good time for 2 years, they got a wonderful litter of puppies together, - and then Luna started to fight with Jackson.

I think that I am not a great "dog teacher", there is always something I could have done in another way - if and if - but I had come to the point that if I did not want to clean bleeding wounds on the dogs, or keep them seperated in cages, I had to make a change.
It was my responsibility when the dogs were bleeding, and I had to make a decision - and I sold Luna.
As her mother she now lives as the only dog in a wonderful family, and she has a better life now than she had by me, when she was stressed of all the fights.

Now Jackson was my only dog, and I missed my bitches who I had loved so much - and it was mutually, I had all their love.
Many dreams were broken, but I wanted to live a life with my dogs, where I could have them walking freely around my legs, sit down with them in the sofa, and sleep with them in my bed.
I do not want to live a life with dogs in cages!

I have not given op the dream about this "doglife", but it will now be with another breed - the pug.
Jackson is now an old dog, he is almost 13 years old, but one time more he has kindly received a little puppy, and he loves the little Mulle-pug.


Postscript:
Jackson died July 12th 2006 almost 14 years old.
We have so many wonderful memories about him. He had a long and eventful life, he loved to show, and nobody could be more proud than he was, when he walked down in the Big Ring to the music "We are the champions".
He was father to 2 litters of wonderful puppies too.
Most of all he was the lovable center of the family. We will always remember him for his kindly and loving temper, he leaves a big void.
