ROBBIE
Uskrail Jack Diamond
5th July 1995 to 11th February 2007

Robbie was a very special boy. He had a wonderful start in life being the son of Ronnie Chadwick’s Flora and we endeavoured to maintain that secure and happy environment for him.

He was a natural and confident water dog from a very young age, a demon cat chaser right up until shortly before he died and he thoroughly enjoyed being as stubborn as he possibly could whenever he possibly could!

He passed his first Good Citizen test at the age of 11 months and about that time won the Puppy Swim at Brubor.  He was also part of the team that won the Superheros game at the Newfoundland Spectacular.  He passed a number of level B water tests, the last one being as recently as October of last year - he did it all at his own pace and needed no commands.

Above all though Robbie was always very good company and we loved just being with him.

He has known all of our newfs and has been a very good influence on them especially our lovely Maia who had formed a very close bond with him.  Robbie had a very special relationship with our first newf Byron and we hope the two of them are now together again, along with Sam, Max and Bruno.
