Amanda Benford was the beloved fur-child of George and Patty Benford.  A beautiful border collie and chow mix, she joined the family in 2004.  Her start in life was rough, but you would never know it!  Miss Amanda was a social butterfly who enjoyed travel, meeting new friends, long walks and spending time with her little sister Gretchen.

Following a beautiful morning walk on Saturday, April 13, 2013, Amanda had a sudden onset of illness and a rush visit to the emergency vet determined that she was hemorrhaging due to a ruptured cancerous tumor.  It is now her parent’s mission to find a cure in her memory!
