Katie's been sick


Hi all,

Katie came down with a very bad virus and was very ill over night..she is much better this morning which is a huge relief, however she had during the night 7 episodes of seizure activity. Very scarey stuff...Amber laid on the floor the whole night..many times getting up and resting her chin on the edge of the bed. I would not however allow her up as Katie was vomiting often...this morning when things calmed down, I washed up Katie real good, disinfected her hands and allowed Amber up...she instantly laid down and Katie's hand went to her..she licked on her hand for a very long time then settled down to sleep next to her for awhile.
I am happy to report that by this afternoon Katie is up and around and feeling better. Yea!!!
Thanks Amber for the comfort you provide our Katie!!

Katie and Amber in the media!


Hi everyone,

Recently I was interviewed by a very nice reporter for the magazine "Dogs in Canada". This is the Canadian Kennel Club's official magazine. Katie and Amber will be featured in the December issue!!
Dogs in Canada can also be viewed online at http://www.dogsincanada.com/
Don't forget we are still fund raising to pay for Amber!!

On another note as you can see from the photo, Amber has started sleeping with Katie..this is a great big step in the bonding process and has brought about several nights of sleeping right through for Katie. Normally Katie is awake several times a night...this a a big treat to have her sleep through!!
