In Memory of Hercules

With love from Suzanne Quick,

When Hercules came home with me, he fit in the palm of my hand.  He was such a happy puppy – in fact his formal AKC name was “Suzie’s Happy Hercules”.  And it was very fitting that his breeder’s real name was Lorraine Happy!
During his lifetime he sired many litters and I kept a little boy from his last litter, Frankie.  Hercules was always a clown – his antics made everyone laugh and he never knew a stranger. When he “retired”, I had him neutered and he lived the rest of his life lounging on a pillow – but he never gave up his alpha position in my pack.  He was always the man in charge. 
Hercules will always have his special place in my heart – I feel very lucky that he passed here at home so I didn’t have to make that decision.  He is waiting for me at Rainbow Bridge with Stella and her three babies along with several others that I loved with all my heart.  They will always missed.
