Rest In Peace"Katia"November 7, 1986 - November 16, 1999
We picked her up as an adult from her home with John & Paula in Miles City, Montana, on our way home from the National Specialty in California in 1988, and upon arrival at our house, she promptly stole meat off the kitchen counter. She was especially fond of unguarded chicken. Always a food hound, she sometimes drew blood when grabbing for bait in the show ring. She had been a kennel dog, and had the bad habit of chewing her front legs all her life. She gradually became more socialized, and learned to tolerate long car rides without trembling. She loved to run. A study of beauty in motion, she wore a path patrolling the fence line in the back yard. She really didn't like to show, dropping her tail as soon as she entered the ring. She hated to be hand-stacked, but could be free-stacked. She was a double great-granddaughter of Ch. Ice Way's Ice Breaker, and a granddaughter of Ch. Polar Mist Dr. Pepper, only two among her illustrious ancestors. She never produced a litter of her own, but lives on in the pedigrees of most of the other SFX pack. In retirement, she spent most of her days in the house resting belly-up on the couch. Until her final illness, she spent virtually every night on our bed, until she could no longer jump up and down on her own. At the end, her body failed her, but her spirit lives on... We miss her. -- Lori and Gordon at SFX
