In Memoriam

 

This page is dedicated to the wonderful terriers who have added joy to our hearts and contributed so much to the foundation of Long Creek Jack Russell Terriers

 

 

George Jones of Long Creek

December 23, 1992 to April 25, 2002

 

George was our foundation stud. A multiple conformation winner and true companion, George will always hold a special place in our hearts. He was an incredible terrier with personality plus.


I could list all your show winnings here as a tribute, but that is not necessary. You were special without all those ribbons, for you were part of our family.
 

You live on here in your wonderful offspring. Nugget has inherited your little "pleasure grunt" whenever she is rubbed. Her daughter, Bristol, does the same thing. Brillo has your wild twirl that she does whenever she is excited and her daughter, likewise, carries on the wild twirl whenever she's wound up. You and your offspring have produced some wonderful terriers, and for that we are indebted to you. Most of all, I am grateful for the opportunity to have known you. You were certainly an awesome personality. My husband was your favorite human, and it was only appropriate that he was there with you at the end. You slipped away quietly on that spring day. You left this life with the same quiet dignity as you had lived it.

 

Loblolly Nugget of Long Creek

January 27, 1998 to July 20, 2006

"Fast asleep. Singing birds in their leafy cover

cannot wake her, nor shake her the gusty blast

Under the purple thyme and purple clover"

Sleeping at last"

 

From "Sleeping at last" Christina Rossetti

 

This great terrier was not only an outstanding show terrier but a dear member of our family. She excelled not only in the show ring but as a producer of both conformation and performance terriers. She is dam to Long Creek Bristol, Long Creek Gotcha, Long Creek Lacy, Long Creek Sara Beth, and Long Creek Favor. She will be sorely missed by all of us here. What a great little girl .Nugget, your legacy lives on here at Long Creek.
