In mijn handen geboren, in mijn handen gestorven:

Egida

Als ik straks oud ben,
ziek en zwak en pijn verjaagt de slaap.

Als onrust neemt van mij bezit,
doe dan wat onvermijdelijk is.

En laat me gaan:
de laatste goede daad
.
Beslis voor mij en wees niet laf.

Past eigenliefde bij de vriendschap die ik gaf?

Of uitstel tot het beter past.
Bij een verloren strijd?

Ik ben niet bang tijdens de laatste gang.

Jij loopt niet weg, jij kijkt me aan.

Je noemt me bij de liefste naam en
houdt me stevig vast.

Vandaag voor het laatst groet ik je
met mijn hondenstaart.

Egida Parcodaini * 13-10-1997,   10-04-2008

Egida Parcodaini, pronounced eizjeeda, called Gida, is the first bitch I bred myself. She is from the second litter of Erba and Rantje. She takes very much after her mother, but she has the character of her father. She is no longer in charge of the pack at the moment; her granddaughter has taken over.
We took her twice on a matingtrip; once to Belgium and once to Italy. She behaved exemplary during the long drive and in the packed subway of Milan. The third mating was unfortunately less succesful; short after she got an uterus infection, that did not respond well to medication. She had to be neutered, but had a fast and succesful recovery.
Since 2003 Gida has the title of Dutch Champion.
Summer 2007 it turmed out her kidneys didn't work properly anymore. This became worse in 2008 and on the 10th of April we had to decided to let her go and put her to sleep; she is burried next to her father and mother on our property.
