Forever in our Hearts
Kyro
Kyro was 1/4 Border Collie and 3/4 Australian Shepherd. She was the sweetest girl that started it all. We bred her to a Border Collie to get Ella, then an Australian Shepherd to get Gypt. She was an amazing family dog and incredibly loyal to Wade. In her younger years her favorite pass time was to go to the Windrivers on a week long pack trip. She easily doubled the miles the horses did by running around and having the time of horses did. She was incredible fast and athletic, we clocked her at 28 MPH. She passed due to age (just shy of 16) at home surrounded by her family.
