Enigmai |
Welcome to Jade's home page ~ As of 2018 she was the oldest of our 'in-house' girls, an adorable Black & Tan bitch who was a credit to Julie Webb of Pacchibei Cavaliers & Retrievers her breeder. Daughter of Midnight (Pacchibei Bellezza Di Mezzanotte) and Eddie (Homerbrent Cormac At Pacchibei), her pedigree name is Pacchibei's Sheer Magic at Enigmai. Her 'family' name of Jade actually has nothing to do with our own naming convention but relates to the fact that it was our 35th wedding anniversary in March 2008 when she joined our madhouse ~ which is either Coral (old) or Jade (modern) ~ no competition on the name stakes really. She is now a mum in her own right after successfully rearing five pups from her second litter in early 2011 (Teddy, Poppy, Riley, Hollie and Charlotte) and then after emergency trip to on-call vets in Winchester nursing two surviving pups (Max & Crystal (who stayed with us)) from her third litter. Unfortunately this meant she had to be speyed for her own health and so, no more Jade puppies.
She was one of life's noisy ones once she recovered fully from her emergency op and Caesaren with a large amount of OCD thrown in ~ if I made the mistake of moving something in the garden and not putting it back in exactly the same place then the world and their cousin knew about it! Just one of the drawbacks that spaying can produce. That said, she was a very loving, cuddly lady lost to us in her twelfth year, a grandmother in her own right with ten grandchildren, she could still chase the young ones around and play fight ~ which certainly gives them quite a shock as they were not sure whether she was playing or telling them off!
Sadly, in the early months of Covid19 restrictions, we had to make that dreadful decision that we all hate but have to take to put her out of pain. A real character who is still sadly missed.
