Audrey...

So our cute little Westie/Bichon has left us. Well, actually, we decided it was time for her to move on.

When we got her about 4 years ago, she was a great little puppy. Tons of energy but could also be cuddly. Then we had Chloe and she got an attitude. Especially when it came to potty training!! Very annoying to say the least. Also, she didn't like Chloe around. She generally slept somewhere on our bed and when Chloe came in in the morning she would start to growl. We never got the feeling she would bite Chloe but she sure resented her being around.

Despite all that it's hard to see her go!!

She came from a breeder in Forest Grove, BC, near my hometown!!
(If you follow the link and search the page for "Audrey" you will see her picture.)

My favorite Audrey incident:

Rachael named her after Audrey Hepburn. Not long after we got her we went to a doggy weekend at the Westin in Whistler. I took her out for a bathroom walk and when I got on the elevator to go back up a middle aged couple got on too.

Them: "Oh, what a cute little dog! Is she a Westie?"
Me: "Yah, she's a Westie/Bichon cross actually."
Them: "What's her name?"
Me: "Audrey."
Her: "That's my name."

The remainder of the ride was spent in silence!!

Au revoir Audrey! They're not all bad memories ;-)
