We take in rescue dogs and found an entire family of Border Collies on the road about 17 years ago. A mother, father & 5 puppies (2 puppies had been killed by passing cars). We found homes for all but a female puppy. We kept her and named her Patches, She was one of the best dogs we ever had. About 1 1/2 years ago we found out she had congestive heart failure. We did all we could until she had a stroke which paralyzed her hind quarters. We held her and talked to her as the vet gave her the injection and she closed her eyes for the last time. It broke our hearts but such wonderful memories. Although the quilt is beautiful, you will get so much pleasure from this dog. They have such a fabulous disposition.
