SeQueL 2008-2021
Grand Champion Lilliput's Royal Munchkin of Wagsmore
From the moment SeQueL arrived at Ozdachs on March 8, 2009 she was the guiding spirit of our second pack. She was the fifth dog Geoffrey and I had, so we thought we knew how we would train the three-month-old girl. Instead, starting on the first day, SeQueL explained to us what she wanted and what we needed to do. On Day One we were puppy whipped.
Throughout her entire life she did not whine. Instead she communicated with her eyes, with happy enthusiastic barklets, and with terrific gruntled noise when we were doing the appropriate thing. Her enthusiasm and happiness permeated her pack and embedded itself into our lives.
When she arrived three members of our original pack greeted her. Syntax, Vector, and Array were happy to see an energetic puppy around them, but they were older and happily yielded the center of attention to the newly arrived play machine. From her early days here, SeQueL has set the tone and standards for pack behavior.
SeQueL became a show girl and under Geoffrey’s handling became a Champion and then a Grand Campion. To the end she jumped into crates whenever we offered because she thought she might be going to another dog show.
SeQueL always treated members of the pack with openness and joy. She seemed delighted to have relocated to our home. She made friends with the older residents. Then when Paris came to live with us, SeQueL welcomed her without jealousy as a full-fledged pack member. That was SeQueL’s imperative: everyone in the pack would play with each other.
In our memories SeQueL spent a lot of effort finding in home playmates. The other Ozdachs were older and wore out easily. One of the reasons we all wanted her to have puppies was so she would have someone to chase around the house.
And, SeQueL was a spectacular mother to Zenith and Array. From the start she watched over them and clearly enjoyed their company. Our first mother dog did a great job of whelping and taking care of the small puppies, but when the nursing was over, she created some distance between her and her children. Not SeQueL. Up to her last month of life, SeQueL would chase, be chased, growl and play with both her children and her grandchild, Auroara.
All of SeQueL’s pack gets along and cares for each other. In her last days, Zenith and Paris slept close to her wherever she was, cuddling her with their bodies. Apex and Auroara would also check in, lick, sniff, and love.
SeQueL’s spirit has guided the Ozdachs for twelve years and her memory will continue to empower and comfort us.
