Our Border Collie Lena, crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. Lymphoma. She had a rough start in life, but it improved drastically when she was rescued and trained to herd. That was her calling. Even though she slowed down quite a bit over the past year, she still had her hollowed out spot under the trees near the pasture gate where she would lay to watch the flock for hours on end. Unlike the LGD who never leaves his flock no matter what, we knew if she found us before she was called in, there was something wrong in the pasture. Though we only had her for the last half of her life, I'd like to think we provided her with a happy retirement home where she spent her days doing what she loved best.
We'll miss you Lena...
