We had to say goodbye to an awesome person, student and friend on Friday August the 14th. Carolle was a long time student of Just 4Dogs, and I always admired her loyalty, determination and her love for her dogs and Agility. I will miss seeing her in class and the sheer squeals of Chester when they came into the arena. Carolle would have to let his leash go so he could run over to greet me. Carolle always caught the little detail, especially when it came to the miss places JUMP BAR! This became the ‘CArolle BAR”, which she will be foundry remembered by. I will also always remember her exuberant handle and me saying…hands down Carole, not to the sky! When Carolle first got sick, we never thought we would not see her back at class again. Boy, life can be so precious and fleeting at the same time. Tomorrow is not a guarantee. Her battle with cancer, was short lived and it was a blessing that she was not in pain. I was very fortunate to be able to visit her in hospital and in Hospice on her last day. So, to all the agility people,…hands to the sky for Carolle and always remember, my favorite saying…GIVE IT ALL YOU’VE GOT, BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW IF THERES GOING TO BE A NEXT TIME.
Here is a video I put together in CELEBRATION AND REMEMBRANCE of Carolle She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered🕊️
