Friday June 14th my Ex and still very good friend had to say goodbye to a great little dog at all to young of an age. I imported Pace from Pine Shadows Kennels of Minnesota in 2005, and she became the main cog that brought Foxton Gundogs (then Foxton Kennels) back from the point of disappearing. Pace along with her mate Foxton's Tankard O' Bud "Tank" produced a number of great litters for me. But Pace was not only a great brood bitch but a tireless ball of energy in the field working as a flushing retriever for many years. When Donna and I went our own ways Pace stayed with her and Tank and was pivotal in establishing Donaaleyna Kennels. Pace went quietly with her head in the hand of "Mom" after a liengthy and brave battle with cancer. Goodbye Lil Girl you have touched my life forever, you live on in your many great progeny and my memories. Deepest condolences to Donna and the pack
