Pitt Bull
May 31st 1999 - May 14, 2011
Loved by Cynthia Fregeau, James Wilton, Logan & Zachary Wilton.
Our eldest, cuddly Pit Bull. What else can I say? She was the
root of our marriage, the one that enabled my husband and I to
meet each other, on a rainy day in a Montreal dog park, back when
I had my own young canine companion, Buddy. Without her, I would
not have studied animal sciences, dog training, nor would I have
developed an interest for dog sports. The only sport she could
still safely practice, at her old age was Skijoring. She would
joyfully trot along, and enjoy each outing. Her second favourite
sport was: the ‘’I-Lie-on-the-Couch-and-Watch-TV-Comfortably’’.
Not far behind was her uttermost enthusiasm for digging in the
mud under the back gallery… A little bit mischievous, she would
await the arrival of the sesame seed bagels in the grocery bags,
in case they were left forgotten for a split second… She would
not touch anything else, but she could not hold back from pouncing
on a bagel left unattended! Her job title: ‘’Monster-Hunter’’.
She was the only remedy that enabled our little boy to get through
his intense nightmares phase… According to our then 4-year-old
son, she ‘’chomped’’ on monsters. Her extraordinary patience with
children & babies made her an exemplary family dog. Beware if
you crossed the front door, you would be smothered in dog kisses!
