  • Kathryn, i am very sorry to hear of your loss of Classy.
    Run free little girl


  • I'm so sorry, it is so hard no matter what their age.


  • Classy was such a great little basenji. I bred her and her mom and also had her grandmother.
    Now, I also have 3 daughters and a son to keep the line going.
    Her daughter,Indy will be bred to my dog, Rocky.
    Hope to pass on Rocky's racing ability and Indy's' wonderful,sweet temperment
    Classy was a gentle mom dog and also such a great teacher.
    Teaching her pups to always be gentle and racing until she was 14 years old.
    Never a fast dog,she was honest
    Not a champion, but a champion at heart.
    She is missed by all who knew her.

  • It sure sounds like you named her right! Again, condolences. Sounds like a hard act to follow, but since you have her offspring, you still have some of her. A gentle, honest dog is such a blessing.


  • It never gets easier when we have to let them go, they are all special. Memories last forever. All the best.


  • So very sorry for your loss. They leave a huge hole in our hearts. Classy sounds like the perfect basenji.

    Weep not for me though I am gone into that gentle night.
    Grieve if you will, but not for long upon my soul's sweet flight.
    I am at peace, my souls at rest.
    There is no need for tears.
    For with your love I was so blessed.
    For all those many years.
    There is no pain, I suffer not,
    The fear now all is gone.
    Put now these things out of your thoughts,
    In your memory I live on.
    Remember not my fight for breath
    Remember not the strife.
    Please do not dwell upon my death,
    But celebrate my life.

  • Kathryn, please accept my condolences. It is so hard when our loved fur babies pass. You offered beautiful, from the heart words about her… "Never a fast dog, she was honest. Not a champion, but a champion at heart ... " How special that you had time with such a wonderful spirit.
