Hollie Borden

It’s with a heavy heart to share that our GRREAT dog, Hollie (GRREAT #00-282), has gone Home to be with her Master and Creator last month. She was 13 1/2 years old and lived a wonderful life with us for 10 years. She was gentle, sweet, and sensitive, often coming to me and nuzzling her face on my lap. Her thoughtful, deep eyes always seemed to say, “It’s okay! I love you!” She was always up for a long snuggle. She was a part of our family life: playing outdoors, watching us do laundry or cook, and of course, joining us at the dinner table hoping for some people food. Hollie enjoyed watching birds, chasing chipmunks and squirrels, smelling everything, digging in the dirt, racing the neighbor’s dog along the fence, and chewing sticks. Sometimes she was naughty and went “exploring.” She always returned home, with tail wagging and eyes sparkling… and covered with Lord knows what! It was hard to get mad at her knowing she was so happy! What a wonderful dog and friend! We love you and miss you, our Hollie Girlfriend!  Lee Ann, Rick, Andy and Ben Borden
