"Han" at 4 months!

My sweet baby "Han".........
came to me at 4 months old as a pet and even showed him briefly until he was diagnosed with SEVERE ELBOW DYSPLASIA at 8 months of age!! From there it was "downhill" with this boy.......he started running high fevers, then had several bone infections, prostate infections time and time again!! So, I had him neutered, put him on a herbal mushroom supplement given to CANCER/AIDS patients called HOST DEFENSE and he is now doing as well as can be expected for all that he's been thru!! "Han" also had a allergic reaction to a yearly vaccination that was given the previous year and he nearly died; since then he has been given no more shots of any kind!! He has also had his eyes "tacked" twice; so far so good there!!

Here are some of my favorite pictures of "Han"!

The Dance
Looking back on the memory of
the dance we shared, beneath the stars above.
For a moment all the world was right,
how was I to know that you'd ever say good bye?
And now I'm glad I didn't know
the way it all would end, the way it all would go.
Our lives are better left to chance,
I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance.
Holding you, I held everything, for a moment, wasn't I the king?
If I'd only known how the king would fall
hey who's to say, you know I might have changed it all.
And now I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end, the way it all would go.
Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance.

"Jilley" at 4 months!

""Jilley" came to me at 4 months of age, a month after "Han" arrived and did I ever have my hands full with two puppies, ha! "Jilley" was sold to me as a "pet" because her one ear was not up and try as I might, even sending to Italy for expensive ear splints the ear never completely stood erect!! I was told by 3 vets, that she had ENTROPION but upon taking her to a eye specialist I was told she did not have ENTROPION but DRY EYE in her right eye only! So, with medication and constant care her eye is fine now; I take her every 6 months for a eye check-up just to be safe!! "Jilley" started limping on her left front, started her on SYNOVI G3 and she's been fine since! "Jilley" has been with me for four and a half years now and my husband has never been able to even pet her.........she likes NO ONE but me as far as "humans" go which is very sad! She is good at the vets because I put her on the table and all is okay there.......THANK HEAVENS! Here are some favorites of my "Jilley"!
