Genie ... how wonderful! Cosette's site looks really interesting ... can't wait to look at everything there ... marked it to explore later. What a great "Animal Miracle" segment her story would make! Our baby Yorkies are the most intelligent dogs I have ever had the priviledge of getting to know ... the look in their eye is so different than other animals ... has anyone else noticed?!

Toto always seems "in tune" with everything going on around her!
My son's wife, Cindy is a nurse and cares for my Mom [who is 88, cannot walk and has to have 24/7 care]. They have a really strict schedule ... as soon as my Mom is up in the AM they have their "bathroom" routine and Cindy leaves her alone out of respect for her "privacy" making sure that she is safe, periodically checking on her. Missy, the Border Collie, on the other hand, lays right at her bathroom door and waits for her!

December, 2002 .. one morning they were about their "routine" when Missy suddenly ran excitedly to Cindy who was in the kitchen and kept acting like she wanted her to come with her! Cindy followed Missy who led her to the bathroom where she found my Mom hermmoraging ... Cindy called 911 and they had to "bring her back" a couple of times in the ambulance on the way to the hospital! We almost lost her but thankfully after 2 blood transfusions & a few weeks in the hospital & rehab we were able to bring her home ... but we all believe that Missy is really the one who saved her. The doctors said that because of the loss of blood, her age and other medical problems if it had been even a few more minutes we would have lost her that day! Missy is definitely our "Heroine"!!

and that, My YorkieTalk friends, is one of the reasons why I didn't "tell on her" the other day when she bit me!!!
