| Odin (God of all Gods) was our first Old English, named from Norse mythology because we
felt she was the Dog of all Dogs and DOG is GOD spelt backwards.
 Odin almost spent 13 years with our
family, the summer of 2002 saw her struggle to battle
cancer, never complaining, always content to have her
head in someone's lap until the end. Our son Adam
and his wife Karen, together with our very sensitive vet
Dr Haider Elbermani, gave her such wonderful care
and consistently put her needs and quality of life
before their own emotions. Her first two years we lived in the
city and here you see how she loved to go to the park with the kids,
even climbing up the
playground to go down the slide with the children.
Odin was our confirmed "Old Maid" she
never had any pups. She was the
largest of our dogs in height with the darkest and coarsest texture of fur. Her red
harness was one we use for any of the dogs to pull a sled.
"It was Odins wonderful
personality and character that led us on the road to
breeding OES, may every family, and every child experience
the warmth and love that comes from bringing an OES into
their lives".
