Over the rainbow bridge

AM INT and NAT CH Calibre's Angel of Music

Chloe passed away May 23, 2007. She was another home bred Calibre Collie, CH Calibre’s Fallen From Grace,(Pagan). She is back with her mother Pagan now, who always watched over her. She was loved by many, and will always be remembered by all who loved her in and out of the show circuits.

This is an untouched picture. This bitch was incredible, you could stack her, walk away, and when you came back she was still in the stack that you left her in.

I still put my hand down at my side and expect it to rest on your head. I miss your calming presence, and the way you used to come to the other dogs rescue when I would scold them for being rotten.

You were definitely one in a million from the moment you arrived…thank you for ‘The Dance’.
