My Precious
Gibson…
We have a secret you and I, that no one else
shall know.
For who but I, can see you lie beside me, each night in the fire
glow?
For who but I, can reach my hand before we go to bed,
and feel the living warmth of you and touch your silky head?
For only I, walk woodland paths and see ahead of me,
your small shape running with the wind, so young again and free.
For only I, can see you swim in every brook I pass...
and when I call your name, no one but I, can see the bending grass...

My best friend hunts on The Eternal Happy
Hunting-Grounds...
But still I can't accept - that he will not come back???
He left us suddenly almost 13 years old and I still miss him so terribly
much!!!
Once in a lifetime...
you have the honour to live with a dog that does it all!

Gibson was my pride and joy and a pleasure to
live with. He was a very masculine and charming character with a fantastic disposition.
He forfilled our lives with glorious moments, gained CAC ticket, several BIS-Gundog
and several BIS-Veteran. He was a very happy healthy dog, still very well coloured with white teeth.
He carried his age
with dignity until the end!
Gibson was a true merry Cocker with a will to
please, liked
to carry everything. He was really fond of birds and field trials and
his father Elmore was an idol. A special
memory was The Working Championship in 1999... first as spectator but after
lots of persuading... we started! I didn't
believe he would be able to fetch such a big bird? But when I
turned around and saw my dearest retrieve that big pheasant... Oh my,
so proud he
was! From that day I realized
that the Cocker truly IS a gundog! Our happiest moment was when he gained the Field Trial
Award!!!
Gibson was
very loving and considerate with the ladies and a proud father of many lovely
offspring. See them
here»
We will always remember you in our hearts! Miss you so
much!!!
My once in
a lifetime dog!
