in memory of Morris (26-07-1999~11-01-2009)

Babbacombe Too Hot to Handle, Morris, came to live with us on March 27 2004. Morris was born on July 26 1999.
The reason why Morris had to find a new home was because he was breaking down the house of his former owners. Eating doors and jumping through windows were some of the things, next to running away, Morris did when he lived with his former owners.
After Morris came to live with us he didn't do any of these things. He listened quite well and loved to be around the other dogs, and especially to be around people a bit more!
Morris' coat had been clipped while "long coates bring so much dirt with" !!! We waited for it to grow back so we could enter him for some shows.

 It took some time for Morris to start feeling at ease in his new home, but when he finally did he proved to be a wonderful dog. He had a very calm, self confident character and loved rolling on his back with a toy in his mouth. He was great with the other dogs, loved playing with them and he was also very sweet with puppies. His coat grew back lovely and continually got darker, he did excellent at shows in open class and continued this success in veteran class, gaining his Dutch and German Veteran Championships. Morris was a beautiful, typical beardie, with gorgeous dark brown eyes and lovely movement.
