When Naomi Gibbs (Naja Boxers) created this piece she said she felt as if Dash Riprock was looking right at her and saying: "I am still here, look what I have left behind..."  and there is his young son Naja's Enterprise of Summer - Mr. Spock looking off into the future...

When Dash died I was inundated with cards, letters, bouquets, gifts, phone calls of sympathy, and artwork of Dash...it was only then that I truly realised just how many lives he touched in such a short time. He was a once in a lifetime dog.

Dash accomplished so much in his short life...and what touches me most is that I see him in the eyes of his sons and daughters...in his short time here he has left a legacy.

Sleep well Dash, you're an impossible act to follow and set a great standard. I will remember you!
