Sir Darnley's Jackanapes Josy

14.01.1996 - July 2003

Josy had the heart on the right place! But this was the reason for a very difficult start into life.  Instead of being on the left side of the chest, her heart was placed on the right side. Possibly because of that, it was bigger than normal. My vet predicted a lifetime of one year for her at most – that was 1996!

In defiance of these bad prospects, Josy developed into a lovely and pretty Scottie! But I did not dare breeding from her because I was afraid that her heart would not survive a difficult birth or caesarean

Actually, also Josy loved to go on shows because there she was the centre point.  But as she hated the lead (she never got used to it) so she did not like to enter the show ring. But her quite few show visits were very successful. 

She was 5 x best low legged Terrier and  2 x best in show. The most important result was being best in show on the “Kurpfalzsiegerschau” in Kassel with Scottie special 1999, where Nellie Holland (Noonsun) was the breed judge.

In the beginning of 2003 Josy got lympf node cancer which was not to defeat. With a heavy heart Josy had to be put to sleep on 01.07.2003.
