Dear friends and admirers of Teegan,

Today is a dark day.  Our days will never again be as bright as they have been for the last 10+ years.  Teegan, our precious Teegan, is gone from this life, but not from our hearts or the hearts of her many friends and admirers - that could never happen.  Words cannot express our sorrow and our overwhelming sense of loss.

Teegan was truly an inspiration to all who ever met her.  As the original "Dobie-Rocket", Teegan proved that a great dog could get out there and compete with other great dogs regardless of breed.  As a result, Teegan inspired many others to go out and try.  The happiness and joy that Teegan personified, both in and out of the ring, showed everyone that it was the relationship between teammates that really counted.

Teegan's speed, grace, and athleticism impressed everyone who ever saw her compete; however, the things everyone remembered most were the sparkle in her eye, her smile, and the pure joy and enthusiasm that emanated from her as she ran with her daddy!

Teegan embraced life to its fullest.  She never met anyone (2 or 4-legged) she didn't expect to be a friend.  She took everything that life handed out (including her nearly 2 1/2 year struggle with osteosarcoma) with a fullness of love and spirit that was a joy to behold.  She had more guts and heart than anyone I have ever met - she was truly "special" and deserved to live and run agility forever!

We've had Dobermans for 32 years, and we've dearly loved each and every one of our kids, but Teegan's passing is almost more than we can bear.  She literally changed our lives more than any event in the 37+ years that Eleanor and I have been together. Living with and loving Teegan has been the highlight of our lives.

Teegan, we love you more than we could ever express.  Your passing has left a void that will never be filled.  From the bottom of our hearts - thank you for sharing your life with us!
