GCH CH Bainbridge Frank Sinatra



CH Destiny O'Rafferty McRick ~n~ Bronwyn of Cnoc Grein

Breeders: Nadine and Scott Kerr


#8 All Breed 2014

August 4, 2010 - April 28, 2018

Call name: Franky


Cause of death - Osteosarcoma right front leg


Words can never accurately describe our Love or Loss


Family and strangers were instantly caught up in his world of funny and

adventurous love for life.


The world of traveling and showing was his oyster, he flourished and

bloomed into a showman. Loved being the center of attention and being

an ambassador of the breed.


Franky successfully sired 3 litters and we are blessed to see his strong love for life

and family flourishing in his offspring. Having his offspring to hug and love has

helped immensely as this gives us something tangible of him to hold on to and cry.


Thank you, Deborah Frank, Scott and Nadine Kerr, for making our dream to one

day have a Rafferty puppy come true. We fell madly in love with Keara and her

jolly exuberant personality. We knew instantly personality and temperament

was going to be outstanding. We continue to see this in his offspring.


The morning of April 28th Franky was surrounded by family and his best little person Zion. Together we filled his angelic wings with love and sent him on his final journey.

Rest in peace my sweetie pie. Until I see you again I will miss you so much

CH Mt Carmel's Shay O'Brien




CH Stoneybrook Kodiak ~n~ CH Mt Carmel's Jasmine

Breeders: Teresa and Perry Kuntz



June 10, 2004 - July 15, 2010

Call name: Shay


Cause of death: Lymphoma Sarcoma



Our sweet Shay was from our first litter born with the Mt Carmel Prefix

The sweetest and most trustworthy, Shay always appeared to have a smile.

Grew up with a host of playmates his mother Jazz, and Charm.


Shay was diagnosed with Lymphoma in March of 2010. We tried treatment including Chemo but was unsuccessful at achieving remission.


As a result of Shay's death due to lymphoma we discontinued the use of chemicals to kill weeds on our property. Litter-mates lived to reach the ages of 9 and 10 years old.


We miss the sunshine Shay brought into our lives everyday! Because of Shay we have not had another diagnosed with Lymphoma.

Cove Creek's Clancy Allen




CH CC Micheal von Wesalia ~n~ Cove Creek's Jude

Breeder: Patricia Falvey-Looper

February 28, 1996 - July 24, 2006Call name: Clancy
Cause of death: Old age and loss of mobility

Clancy joined us in April 1996 at 11 weeks of age. After having been informally interviewed by his breeder. Which required a visited with his breeder 2 times driving
130 + miles one way before we were approved and before Clancy was even born.
This was a great opportunity to get to know Clancy's breeder and learn more about
her and her hounds (Patricia Falvey-Looper).

For the first time when we had questions or just wanted to share something special
with his breeder we felt comfortable about picking up the phone to call Pat.

Clancy has a typical Irish wolfhound temperament. Clancy however was our first
chow hound. Devouring anything you put in his bowl. Soon we had an overweight
hound with the help of his breeder and an appropriate diet we have been successful
at maintaining his correct weight.

Almost 5 months after celebrating Clancy's 10th Birthday, with great sorrow and
much heartbreak we had to let our beloved Clancy go July 24,2006. He was the
changing force behind our lives and wolfhounds. His presence was undoubtedly
larger than life.

Run like the wind our Sweet Clancy until we meet again we will send our love on the wings of butterflies.

Koa of Austin




Sir O'Mally ~n~ Sunny Lady of Valley View

Breeder: Jay Brandvick

June 8, 1988 - September 15, 1998

Call name: Koa


Cause of death: GVD Torsion

We had just moved to Arkansas after our tour in Hawaii. Perry insisted on giving our first Irish Wolfhound a Hawaiian name. Koa... it just so happens to be the initials of a popular camping franchise, KOA Kampgrounds Of America. We spared Koa the embarrassment and assured him he was our warrior to the end.


Koa became part of our family in October of 1988 at the age of 14 weeks. We quickly learned that finding any reliable information on wolfhounds was almost impossible to come by. Most books where generic only touching the surface of what we now know. Most of our first problems with Koa was the lack of interest in food. At times it was so bad I (Teresa) would find my self on my knees forcing food down his throat and crying. Eventually we found a veterinarian that put our worries aside. Having had a lot of experience in large breeds, he told us that this was not uncommon for this breed and was able to work with us, and got Koa on a good diet.


Koa never got heavier than 135lbs. He was always a very picky eater but around 3 years of age Koa reached the weight of 135 lbs and kept it on.


In September of 1998, Koa was humanely put to sleep when he torsioned and bloated at just over 10 years of age. Koa was our teacher in all things that is Irish Wolfhounds....A gentle, kind and wise Irish-man Koa was our Pot of Gold at the end of the rainbow.
