  Our Little Man ( Kid Roc )







Rest In Peace
12/29/01
It has been over 7 months since Kid passed away. There is not a day that goes by that I don't shed a tear for him. We had a very special bond equal to what I have with his father Roc. When Kid was born I had injured my knee. When it was time to have my surgery it was also time to house break Kid, so he stayed in our bedroom with me. He would sleep with me in the mornings as I recovered. I would just pet him and know if I worked very hard on my knee that someday he and I would go to Westminster. You see Kid Roc was nicely built and moved like a dream, he had attitude and presence, everything it took to be a top contender like his dad. Our handler Michele began showing him at 7 months and by the time he died at over 8 months he was proving to be everything I had hoped for by winning 3 majors and 11 points. I constantly fantasized about the day he and I would be together in the ring. Looking back now I believe Kid was misdiagnosed by our Veterinarian. He was put through terrible pain before we put him to rest. Those special images of Kid and I showing together are now replaced with the day I watched him slip away into a peaceful sleep. I love you little man and am so lost without you.
