The Dog(s)
Cassie!

Meet Cass... the original "little" black dog! Cassie was
what her vet described as a "not very well put together
Black Lab." But the Kollers thought she was put together
perfectly and would never have changed a thing. Cassie
was Jackie French Koller's constant companion,
especially once her three children were grown, so it was
only natural that Cassie began creeping into Jackie's
paintings. Before long she had crept into so many that,
when the gallery idea was conceived, there was only one
thing to call it! Cassie passed away at the age of
fourteen, and the family still misses her. She has a "little"
sister now (see Tess below), who has helped to fill the
void she left behind, but Cass will always be the
"original" Little Black Dog.
Can I come in??
I KNOW that rock is under
here somewhere!
What do you MEAN it's too
big to play fetch with?
Meet Tess! Tess is five now, and a
complete sweetheart - despite being a bit of
a Dufus! She has managed to charm the
whole Koller clan and is best buddies with
all five grandchildren. Perhaps Jackie should
rename the gallery the Dufus Dog Gallery!
