Sadie Bowen

Sadie (GRREAT #01-196) passed away on November 2, 2010 after being diagnosed three days before with a fast-moving cancer that had enveloped her spleen and liver.  In August, she tore her ACL, had surgery at Southpaws, rehabilitated for three months, and never complained at all.  But we were concerned that she never built back the muscle in her leg; now we know why.  Sadie was the greatest friend a human could ever have, and was certainly one of the most loved.  She lived life to the fullest, enjoyed friends, and was our constant companion, accompanying us on journeys from Nova Scotia to Florida, Texas to Alberta, and Michigan to Ontario.  As one of her friends wrote, “I can’t remember ever meeting a dog who was so irrepressibly cheerful, who radiated happiness as much as she did.”  She is sadly missed, not only by her parents, but by all of her friends.  Dawn & Marshall Bowen
