In memory of  "SKY" (Naskapis Kamala of DreamCatcher)

Born in the Autumn of 1994, "Sky" did not have the easiest of starts in life. Her original owner abused her and she came to us as a six month old puppy with serious physical and emotional problems. She came to join our growing pack which, at the time comprised Merlin, and Sky's brother and sister Zak and Chena.  She soon formed an unholy alliance with her sister and the two of them ran roughshod over our lives. If there was mischief available, Sky and Chena were in it up to their armpits!

On one occasion, when they were still small puppies, we were convinced that they had escaped or been stolen. We searched the whole house and garden and couldn't find them anywhere. We searched the streets, phoned dog wardens, police, RSPCA and Battersea - all to no avail. A sudden yelp from the sitting room brought us running - just in time to find Sky, Chena and Zak climbing out of the sofa. They had burrowed under the cushions and eaten their way into the interior, where, exhausted from their destructive endeavours, they snoozed a couple of hours away in blissful innocence of our concern. 

On another occasion, the sisters ate their way through two wooden fences and into our Asian neighbours' garden, where they proceeded to wrap themselves up in the beautiful silk saris which had been drying on the washing line.

Sky was a brilliant working dog - often taking joint lead with either Merlin or her sister, Chena. The only problem with having Sky and Chena in lead was that they both LOVED water. On more than one occasion I was dragged into a lake during a race, simply because they felt like a dip.

This photo shows Sky running in lead with Merlin, with her sister Chena and brother Zak running behind.

Sky spent the final years of her life happily living with Pauline and her family. She died in November 2005 and will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure of her company.
