Lucy Sky Leavitt Obituary

"Sky" to us, was a Rescued English Pointer from Pointer Rescue org. She came to us in 2019 from a quail farm in Georgia that retired her. Sky was captain of our "Back-yard Critter patrol" and also enjoyed being Co-pilot of whatever vehicle she rode in. She never missed the opportunity to go for a ride. While we never hunted Sky very much, she was the best bird dog we'd ever seen. Likely from all those years in the Georgia quail fields. At home, Sky loved to boss around our two boy pointers and we often called her the "Queen Bee". She'd let us know when dinner was late by tossing around her bowls and making a racket. We only got 5 years or so with Sky, and even if it had been 25 years, it wouldn't have been enough. She cuddled as well as she hunted, ever mindful if your hand strayed to another dog, she'd remind you who deserved it more. Following a hard diagnosis of lung cancer, Sky crossed the bridge to the ever green fields of the happy hunting grounds on December 28, 2024. We'd like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to PointerRescue.org (look to all the social media sites) for entrusting us with Sky's retirement. We've been honored and delighted by the goofy antics and haughty demands of our resident Queen Bee. Should anyone care to make a donation to Pointer Rescue, please do so in Sky's name. https://pointerrescue.org/donations/ We'd also like to take this moment to express our sincere gratitude to the entire staff at Oakview Veterinary Medical Center for the most excellent care (to Sky and her humans) provided to not only Sky but all our Pointers. Words cannot express the appreciation we have for all their Staff. Green Fields, Tall Tails, Soft Couches. Rest now baby girl. Take our love with you and know that no words can sum what you meant to us. We are forever richer for the time you spent with us.
