Sapphire was born in Wicklow to a mother called Sheila and father called Jack. She was the runt of that litter and not thought to live as long the others, but her brother Dudley was too big and suffocated at birth. So then she just had two beautiful sisters Ruby and Opal.
As a result of her brother being too big, her mother was unwell. She could no longer look after her three pups, and one of them, Opal, got sick with an infection and passed away. After a year her dad Jack also passed away, he was struck by a car.
After eight weeks, Sapphire's mother was well and Sapphire had a new family in County Mayo. After her long travel to Mayo she arrived at a farm. She was greeted with lots of hugs and kisses. She was taught lots of tricks and commands.
Since then Sapphire has won a lot of prizes seconds, thirds and a fourth at dog shows. She should never have been underestimated for her size. She was the runt of her litter but she is a little fighter.
Sapphire is one unique dog. She is the friendliest, sweetest and most kind-hearted dog you could wish for. She is a quick learner she knows lots of tricks including sit, stay, spin, high 5, paw, say hello and to walk on her hind legs.
She loves going for family rides in the car and tractor. Her favourite toys are anything she can put into her mouth and chew. As you can see she's very cute and adorable. She loves having her belly rubbed and going for walks. She has unusual markings - she has two "wings" on her back. We love our little gem, our Sapphire.
