Rest in Peace, sweets.  You had many problems, yet lived so long and never complained, often looked happy with your "little tongue" - "linguini".  You loved your Jolly Ball and Dogobie and put Borders to shame despite your bad hips.  Vets (you had many) and groomers loved you; "Great Girl!!" as your official documents at the groomers' noted.  Finally let you go.  We all miss you!

Also, has submissive temperament with cowardly tendencies (doesn't like "ghosts"; never afraid of people). No real guard instinct. (All these problems have eased with age.) Sudden food-aggression appeared at 2yo. Otherwise, generally over-anxious dog who loves people and dogs a bit too much, and nice and submissive to whatever you want (vets love her), but not a good example of the breed.
