| Amaroq
was my first pure-bred Siberian and he taught me a great
deal about the breed - not least that even an unenthusiastic
worker can achieve a little on the trail. Although never
much of a show dog,
Amaroq enjoyed modest success in
the ring under all-rounders, and won Best Veteran In Show at
Working and Pastoral Breeds of Scotland's Open Show - an
award of which we were both very proud.
Amaroq was always a very lively,
playful boy and enjoyed showing the younger pack members the
proper rules for games. He loved toys, walks and cheese, and
was partial to a banana when one was available.
Little Amaroq left us as a result
of a serious stroke, but he was well and active right
through his old age. He was a good friend, companion and
father figure to the younger pack members, and will be
deeply missed by us all.
Run free my first son - my love
will always be with you. |
