I
was meeting him in Rockford, IL with Roxy on
Friday as she was arriving at 11am. My
friend called me when I was expecting him to
tell me he had Roxy and said.."We have a
problem"~! My heart fell to my knees
thinking the worst :( He said, "Roxy is on
her way to Los Angeles"~! I was like
"WHAT"~! We came to find out that
Frankfurt, Germany didn't do their job and
checked her through to Los Angeles with a
group of dogs that were going there.
Instead of looking at her crate individually
that had stickers and paperwork's stating
she was to stop at Chicago~! Immediately
we all were on the phone with Lufthansa to
make sure Roxy was well taken care of and to
get her back to Chicago. Lufthansa here in
the US were very good to work with and knew
they made a HUGE mistake~! I was on the
phone and found out who exactly was going to
pick up Roxy and make sure she had food and
water and clean. I got to speak to Carlos
who was the manager and said he would call
when she arrived and would personally handle
things and go clear her customs so they
could get her out of the crate. We
anxiously awaited the phone call to make
sure all was well~ Roxy arrived and all
was well and she was in his office eating
and drinking~! Whew~! Well, then the
arrangements to get her back to Chicago.
She had to spend the night in L.A. and then
made an early morning flight back to Chicago
where my friend picked her up. It was a
good feeling when he called me to tell me he
had Roxy and she was bouncing around happy
and acted like this whole experience was no
big deal~! Then an hour trip to meet me in
Rockford. Tom pulled up with her and I
couldn't open the door fast enough to meet
her~! She was beautiful and perfect and
such a fun happy loving girl~! She took
everything in stride and was having fun
playing with the toys we bought her and
enjoying the soil of the USA~!
Roxy truly is a ROCKSTAR~! She is all that
and more according to her..LOL Roxy's
breeder, Andrina, told me she is a
hippopotamus and loves water....yes she
does...she runs around and then jumps in the
pool and runs around some more and runs in
the pool...she just loves it~! Thank you
Andrina for sending such a lovely puppy and
entrusting Roxy to me~!
Roxy has very exciting pedigree with several
International Champions including her
father, "Int CH Flames of Steal From
Orsina's Land" who just recently acquired
his International Champion Status~! Her
mother is a lovely example of a Bernese
Mountain Dog female with good structure and
style and type. Roxy has beautiful
movement as she glides across the ground
which comes from her good Orthopedics in her
pedigree. We are very excited to get her
into the Show Ring in a few months~! Watch
out world here comes ......ROXY THE ROCKSTAR~!
