There is not anything in this world more important to Esperanza than me. The depth of her love and devotion take my breath away. She is a wise being who shines with a new facet of her personality every day. Her brindling colors range from red to blond to brown with silver on her chest and under parts of her coat. She is feminine, exquisite, streamlined and athletic with floating movement, a soft, long silken coat that quivers in the wind and quiet, wise eyes. Yet Esperanza’s true magnificence is inside, showing as she ever so gently places a timid child’s hand over her head to win their trust. Or as she softly touches me, like a butterfly wing, whenever she needs contact. ‘Za’ is the alpha dog in my home, needing no malice to prove it, just gently and gleefully letting everyone know. She has a joyful sense of humor and is the instigator… exploding with ecstasy… leaping, twisting, running and flying.
Esperanza and I found each other amidst many dogs and people at Silkenfest 2005 at Kristull Ranch. ‘Za’ had lost her human and was completely shut down from sorrow. Very slowly my little girl tentatively started responding to me and even more slowly, I realized that she was. When, after 3 days, she shyly reached to touch her lips to my face with awareness and hope in her eyes, I melted in tears of recognition and love. Esperanza means hope. She is mine. This is more than a dog of my heart. This is a dog of my soul. I treasure every day we are gifted to have each other
