Sheila age 11
Sheila lost her battle against cancer on March 17, 2006 at the age of 13.
Sheila was a blue-eyed blue-merle Australian Shepherd.
Her ASCA registered name was "Cotswold Outback Sheila".
She was born in 1993 and after years of practice -
she earned a Flyball Master title.
Her nickname was "The Idiot" because sometimes
I felt she was a re-incarnated blonde.
She loved to play frisbee and swim in the lake.
She also adored children and
loved to kiss and cuddle on the sofa.
� �Sheila (4 years)
For Christmas one year, I dressed her up for a Christmas party. �
She really didn't like it, but she put up with it for me anyway.
After years of training,
Sheila competed in her first flyball tournament in May 1998. �
She earned her Flyball Master in
2002 when she was 11 years old.
No matter what this looks like -
she really wasn't impressed with ducks.
