In Memory Of Elvis

     I received my newsletter the other day and of course I couldn't wait to read it like always. I opened to the page of the dogs that have been accepted for the Foundation Stock and there was Elvis's name. Tears came to my eyes. He got killed by a care a couple of months ago and I still miss him so!!! He was the first dog that I purchased when I first started raising Rat Terriers. He would hav been 8 years old this year. He weighted only 6 lbs. But he was the King of the Rats. He would tree a squirrel for hours and he loved when I would pick up a piece of wood or tin laying on the ground and a rat would try to run for cover, but he nailed him before he had a chance. Then he would walk around---so proud of himself! He sired many puppies and I'm so glad his bloodline will be around for a long time. I kept one of his sons, Buster, who looks almost identical to him. He will be 5 years old this year. There will never be another dog like  my Elvis but his memory will live on forever in my heart.
