Quilla was to be my first showdog, but unfortunately for me, she didn't agree. She hated the show ring, and it definately showed. She placed in her puppy class at the 1998 Nationals and accumulated 11 points, including both her majors, before I agreed to retire her.
Her next endeavor was agility. She loved classes and was doing very well. Once again though, her career was cut short. She had a very strong prey drive which helped her excel in agility, but also made her untrustworthy off lead with small furry creatures around. Once again, she was retired.
Quilla's next job description was to rule as queen of the household, teach puppies to respect their elders, and primary bed warmer.
We lost Quilla at the ripe old age of 12. She will be missed.
