Trixie
1989 - 1996
Missed dearly by owner Gary Hall

A few words from Gary:

Trixie was born on April 1st 1989 on a farm in the North York moors National Park, England, UK. She was the smallest in the litter and I got her when she was just 6 weeks old. She was the most faithful, loving companion I have ever had and the day I lost her was one of the saddest days of my life.

During her lifetime she spent many days walking with me in some of the best countryside in the UK. She has been up some of the highest peaks in England & Wales and walked many hundreds of miles. She had three other companions during her life, Tammy (Jack Russell), Lady (Labrador) & Holly (Old English Sheepdog).

During her last few months of life, she became quite ill with Collitis of the stomach which caused her a great deal of pain and miscomfort. It was with great sadness that I had to accept the fact I would have to have her put to sleep and she died on Tuesday 12th March 1996. She was buried in my parents garden along with Nicky (my parent's dog, pictured above with Trixie), who had died a year earlier. Trixie's photograph hangs in pride of place over the fireplace and from there she looks down upon me and the new Jack Russell I now have, called Pippa.

Unfortunately Trixie never had pups of her own but I know that if she had, they would have been just like Pippa in temperment. Trixie will always be very close to my heart and I will always miss her. She was always my dog and even when the house was full of people, she would always be by my side.
