She chewed siding, ripped up flowers, dismantled a Japanese Maple and eventually learned to leap a 6 ft fence (still don&#8217;t know how she did that).  Maggie also stole tomatoes off the vine, dug holes so deep you couldn&#8217;t see her shoulders and would swim in circles until she yelped from exhaustion if we let her near water.  She was crazy and so full of life that we loved, loved, LOVED her. I&#8217;m not sure if I ever truly asserted myself as the &#8220;alpha female&#8221; in our relationship, but it was worth sharing the title for her.<\/p>\n<p>Maggie was a lover of tennis balls, snow balls, rawhide chew sticks, compost piles (no joke) and the beach. She rarely got cross with another animal (even goats, cats and the annoying little dogs we tortured her with).<\/p>\n<p>We loved you, Maggie, and will remember you always.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our lovely &#8220;lioness&#8221; Merry Margaret (Maggie) is now resting in peace after a long, well-lived 14 years.
