| In memory of Barbie and for the establishment of the "Barbie Memorial Fund" |
|
| Barbie, deaf Aussie, was one of our first featured rescue placement dogs and was a rescue success story. She was also our first lost dog featured, and was found. Six short weeks after she was found, Barbie died. This page is dedicated to her memory, in the hopes that it will help other "special needs" Aussies. In memory of Barbie, the "Barbie Memorial Fund" has been established, through Aussie Rescue and Placement Helpline, Inc. If you would care to contribute to the help of other "special needs" pups (They do tend to incur more costs in proper physical evaluation and also for transportation, as it is more difficult to find forever homes for them.), please e-mail me, and I will tell you how you can help. Since the fund is administered through ARPH, all donations are tax deductible. Lots of Licks... Eli |

| The golden sun is shining |
|
| Azure sky a brilliant blue |
|
| Flowers sweet and fragrant |
|
| Beneath the oaks they're playing |
|
| Waiting there in peace they sit |
|
| Their eyes are bright, noses cold |
|
| Coats shiny soft and long |
|
| No more pain or disabilities |
|
| A multi hued bridge awaits |
|
| The soft tread of your feet |
|
| Shadows are banished forever |
|
| When again your friends to meet |
