  • Disney, my first Whippet, came from Christine Hopperstad. I can still remember the feeling of beauty overwhelming me when I stepped into Christine's yard and the Whippets all came rushing out to us. "Disney" Alcyon Rockingham, JC (Ch MerciIsle Burncoat Babylon X Ch. Chelsea Asprey) came to live with us, and even after chewing through several crates, mini blinds, clothes, etc. I was in love. He was and is my best friend. At 1 year, I took Disney to our first lure course, he was a maniac! He was thrilled and so was I, to watch him run. We were hooked.

    Disney was the official face washer and everyone comes up to Disney at least once a day to get loved by him.

    We lost Disney in 2009, just short of his 17th birthday. A better friend I have never had. A gentleman till the end. I hope to see you again my little pootie hootie tootie. It won't be heaven with out you.
