Blaze is my super mom. She cares for every litter that I have when the moms have tired of them. In fact, I have to watch that she doesn't try to take over! She loves to play and buzz around the house; hence her name. 

Blaze received the Certificate of Gameness award from the American Working Terrier Association (akin to AKC Earthdog).  She has her championship and received an Award of Merit at one of the National Specialties as well. She earned her Novice Preferred Standard and Jumpers titles in AKC agility winning first place in her class many times. At the age of nine, she earned her Rally Novice title with scores in the high 90s; capturing fourth place in a rather large class.  

Blaze loves people, especially children. She showers them with so many doggie kisses, I warn people that she can't hold her "licker". Blaze was 13 years old she passed away on December 22, 2009 from a brain tumor. Rest well, my Blazing Star! 

With heavy hearts; and tears in our eyes
after all these years; we must say goodbye.
We’re with you, gently rubbing your ears
talking to you softly, holding back our tears.
The memories you gave us; we'll never forget.
One last hug; and one last kiss; 
our words reveal you how much you'll be missed.
We look into your eyes; one last glimpse.
They tell us it's ok; you know it's your time.
Close your eyes now, my dear one; go to sleep.
We'll pray to the Lord; your soul He'll keep.
Go in peace now; our beloved friend
we'll stay here with you until you are free.
Your memory will live on; our love never ends. 
Blaze, have a safe journey; throughout the night.
When you awake; you'll be in Rainbow’s light.
Yes, with heavy hearts; and tears in our eyes;
just for now our little one; we say goodbye.
