Goodbye, Mr. Chip
Posted on Friday, February 22, 2008 by Canine Dog Training USA
Our sincere condolences go out to Jenny Glen on the loss of her dog Chip. You can read about it here: http://altapetestockdogs.blogspot.com/
I didn't know Chip well even though I did meet him a few times. But I do know that he meant a lot to Jenny. Thinking about him tonight, made me think about the main character in the old movie Goodbye Mr. Chips. I Googled the movie and found this description of Arthur Chipping, the main character, who was nicknamed Chips as a schoolboy:

Mr. Chips is the much-loved schoolmaster who devotes his life to Brookfield school and its generations of schoolboys in this poignant, classic story of a man who becomes a truly inspirational teacher.I was trying to think of a connection, and realized it was right there in front of me. Each one of our dogs is a teacher, placed in our lives for a reason. Jenny's Chip devoted his life to her. Chip has gone on ahead and I am sure he got a great welcome from some great dogs, all inspirational teachers!
