Saudades’ Edge of Glory

GCH Almanza Intermezzo x CH Saudades’ Caipirinha de Cachaça
Our little sprite, Espanha / Spain / Gaga, is a drip of a drop of my Bells and the pick girl of the E litter. There was no doubt in her mind that she was staying here with me. vbg Bright, biddable, balanced and bold are all fitting adjectives to describe this sweet girl. She loves to run, swim, retrieve, chase and play and can hold her own with the boys, but becomes a pat of butter in your arms, where she just cuddles and nuzzles and makes soft, groany sounds like her grandpa Penderrin. Her name actually comes from her mother’s nickname, Pinga-ga, but in the hopes of her being a rock star, we decided that she should have a namesake to live up to!
Gaga is the dam of the I Litter and we are seeing her sweet personality come shining through. She has retired to the Chicago suburbs to keep David’s parents on their toes. Sadly her stay with my in-laws was short as she was given rest after a short battle with Chylothorax. My father in law was as heartbroken as we are here, but I am comforted in knowing how well loved and adored she was each and every day.
Godspeed Sweet Girl!
