| Tanahill's On A Wing And A Prayer Kate, pictured on the left, bred by Tanahill, and her best friend Maggie on Valentines Day. Kate is owned by Helen & Don, who love her to bits! Thanks to both for giving her such a terrific home. |
| Can. Ch. Laurent's Tanahill Rio Grand Rio was bred by Laura Heidrich and was owned by us here at Tanahill. He is a very sweet boy with kisses for everyone he meets. He finished his Canadian championship very quickly in just 3 shows, all as a puppy. Rio was retired and moved in with 2 very special ladies, Colleen and Eleanor, who adored him as much as he adored them. They were lucky enough to have 4 wonderful years together, spent with great times and great memories. Sadly, Colleen passed away on Dec. 25th,2007, then shortly thereafter, Eleanor passed away on March 3rd of 2008, which left Rio with a broken heart. Thankfully, 2 angels, Noel and Miles came along and took Rio into their home to adore him and help mend his broken heart. We cannot thank them enough for opening their home and hearts to Rio, he is very well loved and his heart is mending. |

| "Paige" Laurent's Perfect For Tanahill |
| Paige is the sweetest girl, always full of hugs and kisses for all who meet her. She did very well in the ring here in Canada, got up to 9 points, then came into season and lost her coat. She has 1 Champion, our Hope (Can. Ch. Tanahill Wind Beneath My Wings.) Paige is now retired, and has the most wonderful family, as shown here, and is so very loved. |

I just wanted to let you all know that Halo,the girl we bred that has been struggling with cancer
crossed the rainbow bridge on July 24th.We shared her story in the cocker classic last year.
Pat had quit her job to care for Halo,and did an amazing job over the last year and a half caring for her.
They are an amazing couple,and I could not have asked for a better home for my Halo.
Pat and Halo had a very special bond, cancer.
They both helped each other through the hardest times in their life.
The one thing cancer cannot kill is love.Pat and Ben are beyond devastated.
They have a hard healing road ahead of them.
We were so hoping she could make it until our summer nationals to receive her ribbon,
but it was not meant to be.I have purchased a special plaque for her and Pat and Ben
will be there so I am going to give them her ribbon in memory.
It is a sad time for all of us.Here is one of the last photos taken of her.
Sleep well sweet angel,
