Miss Prissy was born February 24, 1993.   She is out of our Champion "Cori" and the grand daughter to our American /Canadian Champion "Fire".  She was the pick of the litter and I raised her for showing.  Her first show was when she was 6 months old and she finished her championship quickly, going on the be a mutli Group First winner.  She retired and at 2 and 1/2 years old she had her first litter of puppies.  (11 puppies) all were healthy and living in great homes.  She was bred a year and a half later and produced a litter of 7.  Out of that litter, I kept a male puppy I named, "CHIP" (*********).  Miss Prissy was spayed at the age of 4 years old and soon afterwards she had her first Petite Mal siezure.  At her vet visit it was determined to be idiopathic and she also has daily partial siezures as well.  Shortly thereafter Prissy had problems breathing and at her next vet visit a heart murmur was detected.   We pursued this with Ultrasounds and x-rays showing an enlarged heart (right side and left side enlarging) heart walls very thick and lung disease...........

Her diagnosis is terminal and it is thought the lack of oxygen in the blood from the heart disease may be a contributing factor to her epilepsy as it is causing slowing of the blood throughout the body and rear end weakening. She is a great girl and we have shared a wonderful life together and enjoy each minute of each day she remains with us.
