My beloved Hurricane died in an accident on Thursday, August 14, 2008. His sudden and tragic passing left Autumn and I grief stricken and clinging to each other for comfort.
Hurri was aptly named; a whirling dervish of excitement and anxiety, with an abundance of enthusiasm for life, food and Autumn and me. As a puppy his coat was nearly bright white, but he loved to get that big beautiful coat of his into whatever kind of mess he could find, mud or turkey drippings on Thanksgiving. As he grew up, Hurri found an avenue of release for his energy in Canine Agility. He was a speedy little agility competitor, with flare and pizazz. Unfortunately, when our agility trainer moved out of our reach and I started school full-time, we had to cut back on our agility training and competition, so Hurri had not reached the Excellent level in AKC agility titles. However, he had several Blue Ribbons which we worked hard to get. He was always a winner in our eyes.
Hurri and Autumn we nearly inseparable. The loss of Hurri has left Autumn an only dog, and she misses her boy. We all miss Hurri. There will never be another like him.
