Some dogs never die…

Simply The Best de Loubajac, 20.9.2001 - for ever...

DSC_9111 copy

I will see her smile on every dog running those contacts, on every dog doing cik&cap, every dog doing tricks... She started something big, too big to ever die.

Such a big heart, such a big attitude, such a big character in that crazy little dog. So unique, so special, so magic. That little funny looking dog who went with me to University, who travelled the world with me in her little sherpa bag. That crazy little dog who changed my life, little dog who put agility in a whole new gear, winning World Championships with more advantage as ever seen before or after... Yes, she always loved to go fast - and she left us way too fast... After successfully fighting the nasal tumor and magic recovery of her palate fistula, new tumors in her lungs and peritonitis got us off guard... But her spirit, her passion, her enthusiasm are way too big to ever leave us.

Thank you La for being the best dog I could imagine. Thanks to all her fans who were sending good thoughts her way. Thanks to her team of oncologists, dr.Meier from Zurich, dr.Kleiter from Vienna and dr.Nolan from Raleigh, and her on site vets Maja and Asja.

Run wild my love, my one in a billion, my everything.

    We are sending you our deepest condolences, as well as eternal thanks for such a wonderful pup. The world won’t be the same without her, but many of us will continue her legacy.

    We are so sorry for your loss of La~ She is a wonderful girl, and your relationship with her was so beautiful~ Rest in peace sweet girl, you are such an inspiration to so many people around the world including us. We have been fans of yours since my own dog was a puppy. You have been so helpful over the years and a joy to watch on YouTube. Thank you so much for everything that you have done for the canine-human bond. The world has lost a precious soul. We are keeping you and your family in our thoughts ♥ Run free beautiful La~

    I still remember your old website, and all the forums and help you shared. I remember that I saw you and LA run in a youtube video, and that was it. You two became an inspiration. My dog Sofia en I used your method for her training. But with Aukan, you had the online classes, and we trained with you. All because of LA, and her inspiring, magnificent, wonderful runs. She will always be in my heart, as the inspiration she always has been. xoxox

    What a beautiful tribute!

    While there are no words to express how truly sorry I am for your loss, there are words to thank La and you for inspiring us and giving the gift of fast and fun agility to ourselves and many all over the world. That crazy little dog with the huge heart will always be remembered. Razzles and I are grateful for the tricks, running contacts, cik & cap, and all the agility related joy that has come into our lives thanks to the trails blazed by La. She truly was Simply The Best and will be remembered forever.

    Silvia, I pray for your comfort during this time of loss and sadness.

    Devastating news. La was indeed a one-in-a-billion dog and she has (through you and all she taught you) changed dog lives and dog-human relationships all over the world. Gone way too soon, but she will never be forgotten. Please know you will be in my thoughts during the days ahead. 🙁
