Remani Papillons 

This is a very special litter for me.  They were born just days after my dad was placed on hospice with congestive heart failure.  Dad always loved my puppies and was one of my biggest fans.  He was always excited to know about puppies and to see them.  He would call me nightly and check in if I had sick puppies too.

 

We would always make a trip before puppies went to new homes to see dad.  He would always pick the cutest one in the bunch.  He would hold each one and talk to them.  The photo to the right was a litter a few years back and he was holding and loving on CJ.  You can see the love in his eyes and the gentleness in his big hands. 

 

We unfortunately didn't get to an age that the puppies could travel to see dad prior to his passing.  However, he was thrilled to know one of them was named after him.  We talked about them every time we visited and I would show him pictures.  It made us both smile.  This will fondly be remembered as my Swiss litter after my old Switzer of a dad.  Their registered names pay tribute to Dad's Swiss roots.
