Thanks so much for posting the notice about Shira!!

We just fell so in love with her. If you have read the latest update ... her recovery from the surgery is coming along really well! That little girl can walk so well, you would hardly know that she ever had a problem! She is just so precious! However, they have discovered another problem [they are asuming that she probably came from a puppymill .... certainly from a breeder who never researched nor gave a thought to their breeding program!!] ... Sorry, but I just get so angry every time I think about this and anyone who knows me, knows that when I start crying angry tears, you better back up!!! She had been exhibiting some "odd" behavier ... i.e., barking outbursts for no reason and then deep sleep. Her foster Mom, Trish, took her to the vet and they diagnosed a neurological problem that is causing seizures! It is treatable with medication, but it is just so heartbreaking that this baby has had such a sad little life ... gone through painful surgery and now will be able to run and play without all that pain and now this?! It just seems so unfair! I'm not feeling sorry for us ... we certainly haven't given up on her! We want so badly to help her and still would love for her to be a member of our family, but like I said before, the main thing we want is for her to be where
she will be happy!! I just couldn't bear it to bring that baby to our home and her be unhappy! So ... right now we are going to take is a step at the time ... we will be seeing her again on Tuesday and we are just so excited. Hopefully, the medication will help her and her true, sweet little personality will be restored!
