FREE: Set of 2 Very Cute Doggy Clothes, Size X-Small

Thank You. She is the light of my life. She never leaves my side, follows me wherever I go, including into the shower! She can't stand not to be able to see me even though she knows where I am. I rescued her when she was thrown from a van window as they drove by and she landed in the rock bed by my mailbox. She was only 4 months old and was so emaciated, had obviously been abused. She was so tiny that it was hard to see her as being a dog. I took her in, then 3 weeks later she came down with parvo. I had no money to put her in the hospital so I brought all the supplies home, over 500$ worth, and I placed the IV's in her twice a day for 5 days, then oral antibiotics for another week and she pulled through. My friends say that she is an angel sent down from Heaven just to be with me and maybe they were right. She's extremely intelligent, does everything I tell her to do without fail, and I've been told I should have her trained as a service dog for myself as I am handicapped, wheelchair bound. I take care of all my own IV Lines (I have internal port lines and PICC lines) so I knew how to place IV's, all my own injections, my own ostomy care, whatever the nurses can do in the hospital, I can do to myself at home and have been for over 15 years now. I would love to have her trained except that she was apparently beaten with a leash and is absolutely terrified of them so the helper dog trainers have said they aren't sure if she can overcome that fear but either way, she is already my helper and my life line anyway, certified or not! I'm not sure anymore who rescued who, she or I?!!!
Thank You for such a wonderful compliment!

Amen to that! I can't imagine my life without her. Shes been with me a yea
r now and even though sometimes I wish for a moments peace without her lying on me, I wouldn't have it any other way! Thank You for all the kind words, They do mean a lot to me!

I'm sure your pup is truly devoted to you as well. It is true that they know you saved them from a horrific life and sure death. Its too bad people can't give that same devotion to one another. We can learn so much from our pets!

Thank You so much!

She has such an extreme response to even see a leash. I have tried twice now and she immediately starts trembling so much its all I can do to hold on to her, she also hyperventilates and starts drooling at the same time, her heart beat gets to racing so fast that I'm afraid she's going to have a heart attack, but the real scare came on the second try where she actually just passed right out in my lap as I was trying to calm her, she suddenly became limp, her head dropped, and I thought that was it, but about 10 seconds later she roused and stayed very lethargic the rest of the day. I called her vet and they told me that it was a full blown panic attack and the hyperventilating is what made her pass out but that I shouldn't attempt to train her on my own again if its even possible, Or I could actually lose her with such a huge strain being put on a tiny little heart. I'm going to give her another year and then attempt to have her trained as a helper dog and let the pro's see if they can do it because it scared me so bad, and If it was me that caused her to die, especially in my lap like that, I would be so incredibly lost. But I do thank you for the advice and will try again in about a years time, let her grow up a bit first.

Thanks for the info. I can do that! We will see how it goes and I can give you updates every now and then.
Try and try again!

Will do! You are so very kind! Take care and God Bless!
