Annie update

In a month or two, we will take her up to the CSU (Colorado State University) vet school to get her pacemaker checked. That is where it was implanted.
She has good and bad days as far as her arthritis avd.or hip dysplasia goes. All the supplements help and some Metacam every few days helps a lot. I think the wamer weather is agreeing with her bones

Maisy
05.01.08
I was contacted for help in finding a new home for this lovely girl. The family that adopted her as a very young dog was told she was a poodle. She grew way too big to be a poodle and is a Bouvier which is too much for the family’s young children. The family wanted to know who Maisy would go to, but the Bouvier rescue program cannot do that. So I sent a good potential adopter their way and Maisy will go to a new home on the 17th. She will have a male Puli as a playmate.

I installed another WordPress plugin to halt all the spam I get as comments. Spam is a horrible pain and causes millions in wasted money every day. Grrr….

Giving Molly a bath
04.23.08
Normally I gve the pups baths at Struttin Pup. They have do-it-yourself dog washing. Raised tubs with tethers, a variety of shampoos, towels, and blow dryers.
But today I gave Molly a bath at home. It is difficult to struggle with holding a large dog in the tub while trying to wash it. Ah well, she is much cleaner now and I need to get her in for a grooming.

Bloat is a very serious problem for large dogs like the Bouvier. If not treated immediately, it will lead to death. Please review the chart linked below and know where the nearest emergency vet is located.

An inspiration

Lisa is a dog handler from Dallas Texas and she has been running a Chinese Crested named Diva. Over the last eight months Lisa has been undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Now she has Acute Myelogenous Leukemia. AML progresses very rapidly and her doctors have told her she has about three weeks left. She convinced the doctors to let her out of the hospital last Saturday so that she could run Diva in one last agility trial. She needed one last Q for Diva’s championship. Earlier this week Lisa posted another email saying that they did indeed get that final Q. She is a courageous and inspirational person and I know that the hearts of all of us in the agility community go out to her. There is a video on YouTube of Diva s last run. You will need your Kleenex as you watch this splendid dog and this very special lady.
