R.I.P Hainide Beke-Biene " Devvu "
15.07.2002 - 15.12.2011
Today I had to make a hard decision.. Oh how terrible it feels.. Hardest part was that Devvu still had very clear and strong mind.. Her eyes were bright but body too weak..
Dobermann was dog of my dreams since early childhood. Devvu was my first Dobermann and thanks to her I had opportunity to deal and learn to train with very unsure and fear-aggressive dog. I was teenager (13) when I got already one year old young Dobermann female who was given away (had changed alot of homes and mostly lived in cage). I did alot of mistakes and it was very hard to deal with her at the beginning but step by step we started to get over problems and aggression issues. Soon we were even ready to attempt agility and obedience competitions. Both went pretty well and alot of first prizes were taken by my girl (and LOL, I got over my " losing - fear " and performing nerve). Devvu passed highest level of obedience exam, second level of agility and Companion Dog test (BH). Because of poor conditions in previous home she was very small sized (only about 26 kg) and at the minimum standard height - it was mostly the reason why she was not big winner in show ring. But boy how she loved to show herself! So I got my first handling (and junior handling) experiences with her and entered her alot even knowing that winning is rare. Thanks to Devvu I got so many new friends and entered to great Dog world. Devvu kept me always so active (and in shape
). She also helped me to realize what I actually want from a dog (at first I was so sure that I never will take a dog with past like Devvu`s but now I happily help such dogs).
Devvu was also very serious looking dog - I loved that when looking at into her face there was something mysterious, something dark (her eyes were so perfectly dark! Devvu means shortly Devil
, thanks to her looks and good obedience she got some roles in Music videos, photoshoots etc.
One point that Devvu had in her head was pleasing me (like most working breeds?).. At home she retrieved TV-remote, slippers, ringing phone and she did that only for praise and petting
.. Her coolest learned trick was stealing wallet from strangers pocket
. I visited many schools and kindergardens with Devvu where she changed peoples opinion about dobies as bad + nervous killer dogs.
It was such a joy to see Devvu running around.. Fetching tennisballs, playing with other dogs.
I am so grateful to Devvu! Missing her already!
I will never find a dobie like this..
please look at her photostream it is inspiring
