A Happy ending to a very sad story....
May 31st, 2008 became to Jim, one of the worse days of his life. While on a walk with his beloved papillon "Dewey", an attack from out of nowhere~ Dewey was being assulted by a pitbull. This pitbull charged out of its house, then through an underground electric fence, running past three full properties to get to Dewey. This pitbull was hell~bent to take little Dewey out....And that he did. Jim was on a scooter & slipped when trying to get off.. Before his neighbor (that was also with them) could do anything it was to late as the pitbull had Dewey by the throat. The neighbor was finally able to kick the pitbull, sending it flying several feet. Without that kick, the pitbull would not release its grip on little Dewey. Dewey was rushed to the animal emergency, but after 4-5 agonizing hours, Dewey surcome to his horrible injurys.
This pitbull was one of those they said was a wonderful loving family pet. Wouldn't hurt anybody....or anything....How many more of these stories do we have to hear before something is done about pitbulls.... Or at least making their owners more responsible for them...So many pitbulls end up in the wrong hands. By that I mean people that get them and do not do the things that are necessary to give a pitbull the proper care it requires....This pitbull I feel was one of them...Belonging to a young girl, this dog lives right next door to one of our local park entrances...It sits & watches people & animals come & go all day long, every day....I have my doubts that it hardly ever got walked, or was taken for runs....I think it probably got to simply be let out to potty inside its electric fenced yard & pace & pace & pace. I feel it just built up such frustration watching people come & go all day, every day...I don't think this was entirely the dogs fault...I think it was part the owner being so young & not doing the proper things for this dog such as walks & runs & proper training that dogs need. I also think it was the parents fault for allowing this girl to own such a dog & not make sure she received the skills necessary for the breed they allowed her to have or give the dog the proper care needed. It is the fault of our city/county for giving this dog another chance!! It has to kill or hurt someone/something AGAIN before anything can be done!! How very sad!!!!!
"Dewey lost his life...Jim lost his beloved pet of two wonderful short years...Jim is fighting this case because he sees small children walk their dogs to this park. He knows full well this can happen again...but the next time it may be a small child the dog grabs. The dog in this case gets to live... with just the electric fence no less that didn't hold it back already!!! The happy ending of this tragic story, is we gave Jim one of our very loving papillons "Click" so Jim can hopefully enjoy many more years of the happiness these little dogs give us~ Jim's new boy is very happy not having to be a show dog~ It just wasn't a life he enjoyed~ Their connection to each other is quite mutual!!
Jim & Dewey
~You will never be forgotten~
UPDATE: In Oct. 2008, Jim settled with the courts and the owner of this pit bull... No happy ending here....The pit bull in this story was put to rest...Jim can't bring Dewey back, but he did his best to make sure this pit bull wouldn't hurt anything else again~

This picture is our "DoZeR" (See his page for updates) displaying the signs of winter in our North Central location! This winter has brought for us, very good health! We are hoping to get a new puppy for our family sometime this year. We are getting very excited about possibly having some puppies this year, sired by our male
"Cisco's Glowing Ember" (DoZeR).
Heartache & Happiness....
My mother (who lives with us) had some mis-fortunes this winter (broke her hip) at home. Had to go to the nursing home for 3 weeks for Re-hab, then fell there & broke her wrist! They say "all things happen for a reason." While there, my Mom got a wonderful room mate (Pauline), and the two helped each other out of depression. They started living again by getting involved in activities and helping other people. Then my Mom met a man who has put the brightest glow on her face and lifted her heart! Pauline left the nursing home the 3rd of Mar,07 and will now be living even happier at an assisted living Center. My Mom will be coming home the 21st of Mar. (2007) and has plans to maybe getting an assisted living place for her and her new Companion. They are 79 & 82!!! So this is such a good thing for two people that never thought they could be happy again. If my Mom died tomorrow, I know she would die happy now. That makes me feel so good to see her this happy again! (Maybe it's just her way to get out of our house (SHE HATES HAIR!!!) And we have a few dogs!! She has tolorated them well!!
Always remember when things don't work out the way you want them to, "Everything DOES happen for a reason" & sometimes we may not know the reason or just who we may be helping!! God always has a plan...
"MiMi" & her new Family!

On Christmas Eve , we took our only grandchild Samantha, two puppies and our Pap female "Darma", to visit an area Nursing home. Samantha, playing "Tinkerbell" kept busy handing out gifts to all the residents, visitors & staff. Everyone there had a wonderful time petting and holding the dogs. (And the dogs just loved it to!) Some held Tinkerbell's hand and all enjoyed getting their little gifts from her! This was one of the most enjoyable Christmas Eve's we have had. Below are some pictures of some of the special moments we spent with some wonderful people!! If you ever want to socialize your new puppy and make a lot of folks VERY Happy, as well as getting a lot of FullfillingTickles in your tummy, this is something everyone should consider doing in their area!!
We hope everyone had a Safe & Happy Christmas, & wish you a "Pappy New Year in 2007!"
December 23rd, 2006
When visiting my Mom in an area nursing home who is in for rehab for a broken hip, there was a resident that was always at the front door dressed in a BEARS SHIRT & a "SANTA HAT", greeting everyone and telling them how to sign in and how to get to where they needed to go. We just started calling him "Santa John". So on this day, we decided that he just couldn't be Santa without having things to hand out to all the children that come to visit, so we took him in a stocking stuffed full of little gifts to hand out to all the visiting boys and girls! Santa John was so thankful for the gifts, but the true joy way watching his excitment giving out some of his BEARS stories along with his little gifts. (We won't hold being a BEARS FAN or your BEARS stories against you Santa:)
