                Ch Brodelle Double Dazzler - Annie

                DOB - 24 Sept 1995 - 17 January 2008

                Annie was my first Boxer and first show dog.  Annie did well in the ring winning many class in group awards and then going one step further by winning Best in Show at the Utility Dog Club show in 1998 under judge Graham Treacey (NSW), it was an amazing day and one I will never forget!

                I did obedience and agility with Annie and agility was her favourite thing in the whole world!!  She used to whine and prance on the spot and be completely useless for the last 10 minutes of obedience because she could see the agility equipment being set up!  We never got to a competitive level but she just loved it!

                Annie had a litter by Ch. Hexenhaus Sebastian and from that litter I kept Dahby (Benfelds Twice Th' Dazzle).  When I moved to Chicago Annie went to live with my parents.  I was very lucky to get to spend another 4 years with Annie when I returned before she passed away suddenly from bloat at the age of 12 and 4 months.  I held her and thanked her for all the love she had shown me over the years as she went to the bridge.  Her legacy lives on in her grandchildren.

                To my Annie also known as Annie Fanny McDougall Dog and Foo Moo, you were a champion in many ways but none moreso than in my heart.  Your one sided lip lift smiles and goofy full on attitude will always make me smile.  Thank you for the wonderful memories and the unconditional love you so graciously gave me.  You will always have a piece of my heart and I have you in mine forever.

                RIP sweet girl.

                Love Mum
