Here's something I received about 6 months ago and meant to share.  Just found it again today.  I LOVE getting these kinds of letters and I get fairly frequently.  I'm so proud of all my dogs!

Hi, just thought you might like to know that Miss Yellow Ribbon from Indy's 1st litter on July 21/07 is now a healthy 9 ¼ year old softie who is deeply loved by our family. As your files may recall, we named her Kahlua. She looks very much like her mother although she grew to 100 lbs lean. Despite a leg injury a couple of years ago, she still happily tackles 200 ft climbs and 7+ km hikes on Nose Hill, Calgary (the very large Prov/City natural park overlooking the city). When at our cabin in BC, we discourage swimmers from screaming as that will cause her to leap into action and swim out to them and begin pulling them to shore whether they want help or not. She is particularly protective of our disabled daughter who on one occasion took off on her bike across Nose Hill singing merrily along. Due to a health issue at the time, dad was unable to run after her. After a while, distraught and all, dad returned to the parking lot for help …. where he discovered some seniors standing beside his daughter and Kahlua awaiting the police who had been told "dad is lost". I let them go on their way after thanking them and then spoke to a sergeant who soon arrived in a suv. He was stunned at how dedicated Kahlua had been in keeping up with our daughter and bringing her back to the parking lot. We weren't; that's how she has always been. Thank you Guardian Angels for giving us such a great family member.  Attached is a photo taken a couple of years ago. She has a few more grey whiskers now.
