History:  Was a show dog along with her family. Looks were very important to her family and they would make fun of mutts and other dogs they thought were ugly. Natika was tired of this life and hated how her family treated others. Their owner had a rival who he often competeted against his dogs for the first place. He owned two Irish setters – brothers.  Natika was competing against one of the brothers one day whose name was Mylo. They caught each other’s eye and after the show they met and talked.  After that they met in hiding because their owners and families would disapprove if they knew about it. Natika got pregnant and didn‘t know how to hide this. Her family thought she had met a pure breed English setter and were excited and Natika didn‘t dare to tell the truth. When the pups were born and her family was grossed out. When the pups were old enough the pups were thrown out on the street while Mylo and Natika were tied up at home. When Mylo was able to free himself he ran to were the pups were left but they had all gone. Mylo went to Natika and told her the news which broke her heart.

Later Mylo‘s owner moved to another state. Leaving Natika with a promise he would return for her.

Natika waited for many years always holding on to the hope that Mylo would arrive. When Natika was competing one time she was set up agains a very young irish setter who was said to be the son of Mylo and another female irish setter. Natika couldn't believe it but after talking to the pup she knew it was true.

Natika stopped eating and grew depressed, she died from sorrow.
