Posted: March 22, 2011 Filed under: Apso Aficionados | Tags: Vickie Kuhlmann 1 Comment »While you may have received this privately from Vickie, it’s something I want kept on the blog. Vickie approached me years ago, possibly before Ali came to me. She wanted a female puppy for a pet. Those can be hard to come by! When I decided to place Ali, she went to live with Alan and Vickie. Ali opened the door to one of my treasured friendships.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am the thousands winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush.
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
From Vickie:
A toast … to a new star in the heavens tonight. A beautiful, shining red star. It is, indeed, fitting that we raise a glass of red wine honor her memory. Or, perhaps, to drown our sorrow at her passing. What she added to our lives cannot be measured except by the heart.

Apso Rescue heart..by Kathy
Posted: August 28, 2010 Filed under: Apso Aficionados | Tags: Kathy Rasmussen, Vickie Kuhlmann Leave a comment »All of these beautiful apsos have passed through Vickie’s big heart at Apso Rescue Colorado and found loving homes.
Many of the dogs were abandoned, abused, and neglected or sadly surrendered due to an owner’s illness or death. The dogs come in all “flavors”, age–even puppies, or wise, old monks with whiskers destined to melt your heart.

This organization’s founder is Juliette Cunliffe. From the author information in All About The Lhasa Apso:
Despite her love of animals from a very young age, during the early years of her life Juliette Cunliffe had to make do with a variety of pets ranging from garden worms to guinea pigs. When she was eleven her father eventually gave permission for the first family canine companion, a Rough collie.
With several years spent away from home whilst studying and working abroad, it was not until the mid 1970s that she was able to become fully involved in the world of dogs. Owner of Lhasa Apsos and hounds breeds, she is a successful breeder and exhibitor and in a Championship Show judge of Lhasa Apsos, ass well as a judge of other breeds. Her special interest in Tibetan and related dogs extends also to the Tibetan people and to the country itself.
She holds the Canine Studies Institutes Judging Diploma and Breeding Certificate, is Hon Secretary of the Lhasa Apso Club and is a breed-note correspondent for Our Dogs, a weekly canine newspaper.
