Dream'N Maltese

Dream'N Maltese is a breeder of show quality Maltese dogs and puppies.

Buttons was the sweetest, calmest, quietest Maltese we've ever had the good fortune to have as
part of our lives. She would look at you with those big round eyes and wag her tail, but never bark.
She and our Patches gave us six beautiful puppies, one of which was our precious Star. We had
planned to breed her to Patches one last time, and then she would be spayed and retired to live
a life of luxury. This was not to be. On Saturday night, April 6, she began to abort the litter of two.
Emergency surgery was performed, performing the spaying we had planned for after the birth of
the pups, but on Sunday morning she took a turn for the worst. By 11:00 AM, we had lost our sweet
Buttons and the puppies too. This loss was our first for any of our adult Maltese, and heartbreaking.
We had just returned home from the funeral of my first cousin, more like a sister, and best friend
when this all occurred. So to say it was a day of sadness would be an understatement.

On November 17, 2004, we lost our oldest Maltese, Misha. Misha was the first Maltese puppy born to us. He was very special. Acute Congestive Heart failure was the cause of his death. He was 11 years old. He is missed.

Now to add to our sadness this year, our special little angel, Pierce, died on Christmas Eve. He was born on September 29, 2003. He died December 24, 2004. To say that one Maltese is more special than another sounds really silly, but Pierce was very special. He had just started his show career and was well on his way to being a Champion. The awful bacterial infection that has plagued the dog show and breeder world, was the culprit in his death. If you don't know about this infection, please click here and read about it. Print it out and take it to your vet...there are still some that are not aware of this. I was one of those people. Please, please do not let this happen to you.

He was indeed my hope for the future.

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see; if the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today, while thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, and each time that you think of me,
please try to understand, that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready, in heaven far above, and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye, for all my life I'd always thought I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much yet to do, it seemed impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad; I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, just even for awhile, I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized that this could never be, for emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates I felt so much at home. When God looked down and smiled at me from His great throne,
He said "This is eternity and all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last. And since each day's the same way there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful, so trusting and so true. Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven and now at last you're free. So won't you take my hand and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.
