Riggsie Photo Retrospective

As a puppy, before we got him.

Riggsie in his show days.

Doing agility.

Doing his patented "handstand leg lift" shortly after his left hind leg was amputated.

Hose fanatic.

Tennis ball fanatic.

Above all, food fanatic.

Toy enthusiast.

Raising his brother Rowan.


Favorite place: the beach.


Yawning at an agility trial, back when life seemed simple.

Cute from every angle.

My beautiful love, I love you forever.

Riggsie in Eternity

Today Riggsie's 16-month battle with hemangiosarcoma ended. Here he is in eternity.

Things have gotten harder, but I'm still enjoying life!

Everybody says I'm incredibly handsome, and I guess they're right. But do they notice that I'm also really cute, and that I have a great personality too?

I went in my pool today, and it made me so happy!

This is my favorite place.

And the hose is my favorite toy.

Handsome...

AND cute.

Phew! Time for a nap.

Touki gets her C-ATCH!

Last weekend my female lab Touki and I got our CPE agility championship (C-ATCH). Yeah! Here I am (right) with the judge:

Rowan, Riggsie, and Touki at the beach today.
Riggsie goes swimming. Riggsie in the stream yesterday. Riggsie, Rowan, and Touki in the flowers. Waiting for the tennis ball (Riggsie in front). Riggsie says: "having 3 legs doesn't slow me down at all!" February and March showers (more like 60 days of pouring rain) bring April flowers. It was worth it!
