Chase Away K9 Cancer
Chase, doing what she loved most.
"Chase" was a black lab and a dock diving champion who passed away on June 28th, 2006 just shy of 7 years old, too soon for her time as many others.
Below is a short excerpt about Chase as told by her "Mom", Cera Reusser,
"I could tell you the longest story about the worst day of my life but that's not how Chase should be remembered.
She left us yesterday after I took her to Sauvie Island one last time for a swim off a dock she has played on for years. It was strange: I have never seen the water in the Willamette so clear that you could see her entire body and her legs swimming away. She had a happy smile on her face and her tail was up and she enjoyed play time at the river. The cancer was getting her quicker than anyone expected so it was time for us to say good bye. My vet did a wonderful job and I held her to the end. She will never ever be forgotten and will fill our hearts forever with so many great memories."
