Guardian angels 2019 +

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.


All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.


They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.


You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.

Ch. KNIGHTERRANT'S LORD CYRUS "CYRUS"

Ranked 6th Mastiff in Canada in 2019


March 3, 2016 - November 8, 2024.


Parents: 

Dam: Ch. Baskervilles Clairamel "Claira" 

Sire: Ch. Knighterrant Sherman The Tank "Sherman" 


Bred by: Dave and Joanne Swift


Owned by: Dave and Joanne Swift & Lenka Uhlova


Testing:  PRA, CMR1 and DM clear by parentage, Elbows x-rayed - he injured one elbow as a puppy and has had it surgically repaired.  PennHip clear, OFA Cardiac.


Proven: Yes


Colour: Fawn Brindle


Weight: 209 pounds 


Pedigree: listed below


Cyrus passed away peacefully and unexpectedly in his sleep Nov. 8, 2024. He was fine at 3am when he was given a toy to chew on, but at 7am, he had passed away without any prior warning. He had cellulitis, had been seen by the vet earlier in the week and everything seemed fine; he was prescribed antibiotics. 

Cyrus was from our Sherman x Claira litter.

Cyrus was loved, co-owned and lived with Lenka Uhlova since the fall of 2019. Lenka took Cyrus out to the shows and obtained his final points for his championship. He was Number 6 Mastiff in Canada in 2019. Lenka loved Cyrus structure, head, and he was one of her favourite studs.

Cyrus had been previously co-owned and raised by Dan Harding and Karen Bonsall who knew of Cyrus' potential.

He was a character and was only willing to breed to girls he had a relationship with. Chewy, Claudie, and Ginger are from his first litter with Sasha and all are Grand Champions while Claudie went on to be the first female Mastiff in Canada to get her Grand Champion Bronze title.

Faith, who we are awaiting on puppies from, is named so as Lenka had faith in Cyrus as a stud. Faith Is from Cyrus' second litter with Emilly.

Cyrus sired many litters thereafter. 

Cyrus loved and was obsessed with the water since puppyhood, especially swimming pools, jumping into the water from a distance, splashing the water out of the pool. Lenka had 2 pools especially for him. He loved the rain and loved to catch raindrops instead of drinking from the water bowl.

Sadly, he passed away before having the chance to become a grandfather. We would like to think that he's watching from the rainbow bridge, keeping an eye on his soon-to-arrive grandchildren and their mother, Faith. He had gathered all the puppy toys at Lenka's almost as though he was preparing them for his grandkids.

Cyrus lived life on his own terms, culminating in a tranquil departure during his sleep. 

His absence will be profoundly felt, and his memories cherished forever.

Molly developed pyometria (an infection of the uterus) after being bred and had to have an emergency spay as the infection was very severe.  She had 2 beautiful litters of puppies including Koodo whom Lenka Uhlova showed to his Grand Championship. She was a grandmother to many. She was finding it a little too much with the other dogs around and went to a retirement home where she was the only dog and was spoiled and pampered. Molly enjoyed a few years in her retirement home prior to developing bone cancer. She declined in her last week and would not get up her last day requiring her owner to help her to the vet to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Molly was a big, beautiful, gentle giant that will be missed by all.

Claira retired after having 3 beautiful litters of puppies. She  was spayed July 21st, 2020 and went to a retirement home/family as she wanted more attention and to be more on her own. 


Sadly her new family had to help her cross the Rainbow Bridge November 13th. She had been having a difficult time on and off since June with a number of health issues, that resolved with treatment and she seemed to be back to her old self. Recently the symptoms looked different. She wouldn’t get up even if supported, refused water and food amongst other things. This time at the vet they found two very large masses in her abdomen which the vet explained were causing Claira significant pain and while they could operate to try to remove the masses, they were not sure about her quality of life afterwards. Her family was very sad to lose Claira, they said that  she was such a lovely soul and thanked us for giving them the opportunity to bring her in to their family. 


Claira will  forever be remembered by all that knew her.  She was a true ambassador to the breed. She beat the other dogs in the show ring, becoming a champion at a young age. We thank Baskerville Mastiffs for Claira who was a Brownie grandchild, given to us in exchange for her mother, who we had given to Baskerville Mastiffs to continue their lines after the loss of one of their bitches following a C-section. We thank Claira for her time with us and all the puppies that she whelped, many who are now champions and have given us grand puppies. Rest in Peace Claira, run free with all those who have gone before you over the Rainbow Bridge.

KNIGHTERRANT'S OLIVER TWIST

April 1, 2021 - June 21, 2021

Ollie lost his battle with his liver shunt issue, a congenital defect, only detected after we corrected the swimmer puppy issue and were working on correcting the bowing of his front legs. He was suffering having issues walking and breathing in the last few days due to all the fluid collecting in his abdomen pushing on his lungs and other organs. His liver function was not good enough for him to withstand surgery and if we removed fluid it would reaccumulate just as fast. He was a happy little guy, always wagging his tail. He almost made it to 12 weeks old and we enjoyed every minute snuggling with him, missing him already as does his sister Tequila.


Fly free over the rainbow bridge and you will be greeted by many who have gone before you.


Photos of him earlier in life are on our Minnie x Cyrus Puppy Page.

Sherlock lost his fight with lymphoma just under 2 months after the diagnosis. He fought hard until the end. He was a mama's boy and would only show well with Jenn.

He is over the rainbow bridge with Diesel and so many of our mastiffs that have crossed before him. RIP Sherlock.

Aggie gave us 2 wonderful litters of puppies including our Molly. We tried to breed Aggie unsuccessfully several other times. She retired to live the good life with us. 


June 20th at 409 p.m. our sweet Aggie joined so many over the rainbow bridge. The bladder cancer had spread and for two days she would not get up. Aggie got up and went outside when the vet called to say they were on their way to help her to cross the bridge...always doing things on her terms. For the first time in three days the sun came out and she lied in the sun. With the help of the vet Aggie wagged her tail and passed. In that instant all power went out in the area. Not sure but., believe it was the fur angels escorting her over. Goodbye sweet Aggie thank you for being our Aggie and for all that you have given including many puppies, grand puppies and great grand puppies. Run free, God speed. We will miss you. You were truly an ambassador to the breed.
