fight with kidney disease, and partial recovery,</div> <div> cancer finally took her from us.</div> <bR> <div> The onset of the cancer was very fast, and although</div> <div> everything possible was done to try and pull her through this one,</div> <div> Juney finally gave up on the 25th February, 2004.</div> <bR> <div> Her absence will remind us that this was one hell of a</div> <div> greyhound.  Her determination and her will to please</div> <div> will stay in our hearts forever.</div> <bR> <div> She has left us with a legacy of  3 beautiful black pups,</div> <div> who, I am sure, will do their mother proud.</div> <div> <IMG SRC="af9c4cc0.jpg" border=0 width="196" height="204" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> What  A  Story !!!</div> <bR> <div> June belongs to a dear friend of ours - who is responsible for introducing</div> <div> us to greyhounds - but she is considered one of the family.</div> <bR> <div> Her mother is <B>Kissy Bear</B> - who is also the mother of<B> Bearability, Chief Wigam, </B></div> <div> <B>Swift Paws and Kissy's Babe</B>.  </div> <bR> <div> She is a litter sister to <B>Foxborough, Honcho Bear, Head Bear</B> and</div> <div> <B>Head Direct </B>(who is the dam of the current promising pup <B>Cool Kissy</B>.)</div> <bR> <div> It is hoped in the  future that June will be well enough to have her own litter </div> <div> of puppies. </div> <bR> <div> June is a young retired racing Greyhound. Because of her brilliant </div> <div> breeding she was being prepared to become a brood bitch - </div> <div> until Christmas 2000.</div> <div>  </div> <div> June was admitted to the Vet Hospital with kidney failure. </div> <div> She was worked on and observed around the clock by vets for 4 weeks. </div> <div> At the end of this time her condition had still not shown enough </div> <div> improvement to indicated that she would pull through. </div> <div> It was becoming a fruitless effort.</div> <bR> <div> Faced with the choice of having her put down or bringing her home to try </div> <div> other alternatives, it was decided to bring her home and try herbal remedies. </div> <div> The herbal remedies pulled her through. Thanks to Robert McDowell</div> <div> from the <A HREF="http://www.herbal-treatments.com.au" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.herbal-treatments.com.au"><U>Bathurst Traditional Medical Centre.</U></A></div> <bR> <div> Even though she was looking good and all outward signs indicated that she </div> <div> was quite healthy, the kidneys were still in very bad condition.</div> <bR> <div> June has now had acupuncture implants done throughout her body. </div> <div> Now only time will tell if the kidneys will ever return to a near normal function.</div> <div> Shear determination has kept this young lady with us. </div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="184" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 72 ><NOBR><div> <A HREF="amyphotos.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Little Lightning Photos"><U><IMG SRC="07442420.jpg" border=0 width="66" height="66" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER><NOBR><div> <A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Greyt Vibes Greyhounds"><U>Home</U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="junephotos.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Junes Photos"><U><IMG SRC="07140400.jpg" border=0 width="64" height="64" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </td> </tr><tr> <td valign="top" height=24 BGCOLOR="#CCCCCC" TEXT="#080000"> <div> This website is dedicated to the most wonderful animal in the world - <B>"THE GREYHOUND"</B></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
