Arrival Story:
Nessie in many ways was the most noble and sweetest of all our scots. She was transported from a shelter in San Angelo to one in Dallas where a friend spotted her for us. We always imagined she had a dusty life of adversity and adventure before she came to us and we always recognized her as a powerful force. We sensed her extraordinary ability to drink in every bit of life from every second she was given. From unsure beginnings, She became a real leader in our pack. Now we find ourselves saying "The trains no longer run on time" without Nessie keeping order. Nessie rarely showed weakness or pain. She never asked for much and was grateful for everything. She shared power with Atticus in a way unusual for dogs. Although she was the alpha she always let Atticus have the toys first and only defended her bones and the bed we gave her for Christmas.

Bio:
Our girl had a great sense of humor and often sat on the sidelines laughing at us and our antics. She loved to go places and a ride in the car was a treat indeed (as long as it wasn't too far). Our favorite game, "Snappy face", was something most people might consider a bit dangerous. She and I used to take turns snapping at each other's faces in pretend viciousness and then roll around laughing on the bed. Once when we screwed up and clashed teeth, I saw Nessie's dedication to the order of things come full force to the top. She couldn't believe she had actually had a confrontation with the human alpha. She almost offered to commit sepuku as atonement. That incident shook her to the core for a brief moment and burned her name in my heart forever. She loved life more than any dog we have known and was a great friend to Atticus. We lost our sweet Nessie on 11-16-05 after a long battle with cushing's and a short battle with cancer.
