Lakotah’s Running Hawk Hangka, “Shipley”

June 19, 2011

Owned and loved by: Lucien and Marcy Gentile

Shipley was the youngest of 3 Bouviers for many years. Now he is the oldest of 4! He has always been a sweetheart and for years slept on the bed, in my pillows, above my head. Unfortunately he can no longer get up on the bed. He’s had several toes amputated, but still keeps up with the younger dogs. His younger “siblings” are Elle, Sam and Gia.

 The BHF Silver Beards Program celebrates Bouviers who have reached the age of 12. If you would like to honor your young at heart Bouv on our Facebook page, please contact the Silver Beards Coordinator, Lara Harriger at bhfsilverbeards@gmail.com.
