Puttin, that pic of Sasha in the contest....


(the one with her ears blown back) is the FUNNIEST pic I have ever seen!!!!!  That is a GREAT pic!  Did the wind just happen to blow right as you took the pic?


I'd have that one hanging on my wall....lol.....too funny!

LOL, no it was not windy, she was just oddly acting silly and they popped back.  It is very rare to catch her acting silly  in a photo.  She is pretty conservative. I loved her silliness in that picture too.  Treats are a big motivator. LOL  Given the way she came into the shelter, the way she looked. It thrills me to see her act like a little goddess governing different places of our home.

I didn't know she was a shelter dog!  Wow.  When you see pics like that, it just makes one think.......how could animals like that be pts.  Of course, when there is no more room, they have to do something......but man, every BYB and PM in America should see that pic of Sasha......to show them what they are helping to contribute to the death of.


Knowing that she is a shelter dog....and seeing her that happy....just makes the whole pic that much better!

Let me see if I can dig up her first few pictures,


 Ok this is her at the shelter, before her shave down,  Sorry I don't know why its small



First day at home, sick with kennel cough, ear infections, and torn off dew claw,


I think, I may have took a picture of this picture.  It was my pre-scanning days,



This was about a week or two after. She was feeling much better, looking very puppyish, and alpha-ism starting to show. LOL



Sorry for them being too small. I may have edited them sometime or another, and sometimes posting them elsewhere they show up small.

That 'Before' pic literally made me gasp.  I can't believe that is the same dog!  It kind of hit me hard, because I haven't really spent very much time in shelters....and in my mind I guess I always thought that drop offs were always clean and groomed (I know...stupid, huh?) and that someone would come along and say "hey!  thats a cute dog and I want it".  I never even thought about the flip side of it.....where the poor things come in looking dirty, matted, and sick. 


That is one of those photos that will stick in my mind forever.  Its a painful photo to look at....it really is.  The sad thing is.....I'm sure she wasn't the worst.


It would be nice if all adoptions stories could end as great as Sasha's.  You can tell by her pics, that she is truly a happy dog.  What a wonderful story.

Ansy, I wish I could say I adopted her just like that, But when I first saw her it was on amrt.net totally strpped down. I did not know if she was a poodle, a bichon. was not sure. with all that I went thru with her you'd be amazed had you been me. All the tears I had spent with her. She is one of those dogs that just jerks and pulls at your tear strings. She will forever be in my memories. Bites and stitches. I love this little whench of mine.

Thank you Tuna , She has been a real struggle for me. Going to the E.R. because she bit me, and I needed 5 stitches. I was soooo afraid they would try to take her from me. But thank you. It brings tears to my eyes when I really think about what we have all been thru she and I.  Even the cop that I spoke to when I had my aptartment burglurized about 4 1/2 years ago, said that I was such a good perso, after I told them just a little about her. I don't feel special at all. But I am glad others do see the good in this.  Most would have sent her packin.
