RIP Ch Lajosmegyi Bator Bulcsu

Born November 17^th, 1998. Died January 8^th, 2011. He was only 12 years old, but lived a long life to the old age of 84. Known to the family under many names, Bully, The Ancient One, Speed Bumb, Butt Chips and the favorite, Black Balls, he lived a long easy fairly simple life, walking the yard, eating, drinking, and barking at ghostly sounds echoing throughout the house, like the door bell ringing on the TV. In his early years Bully traveled the country showing off his perfect coat and walk, becoming a Champion in the show ring. For the past 9 years he has guarded vigorously the inhabitants of his house hold, usually from the top of the steps where he made sure no one went any further, and if they attempted to he would lick them lovingly in the face.  

He leaves behind him 9 siblings, the results of a one night stand. They have been scattered across the US and also are showing or guarding livestock.

During his last 4 years, he became friends with three Whippets, Razzie, Billi and Meme – and two Italian Greyhounds, Ator and Zuri. I think they kept him young at heart and happy, no matter how much it looked like they were annoying him. (I think he secretly enjoyed swiping his paws at the Iggys, making them think he was going to have them for breakfast.)

He will be missed by all of us, and I am sure he is in a better place.
