    Poor sweet Pharaoh just can't catch a break (picture attached). Despite
    it all, he is just as sweet as can be! First, as a puppy he ends up
    with a family that doesn't bother to take him to the vet for the most
    basica vaccines or any other veterinary needs.:mad: Then, at the young age of just 8 months, they decide they don't want him anymore and dump him at
    a local shelter. Cherokee County Humane Society took sweet Pharaoh
    into our program on Monday with the hope that finally, he can get his
    life on track. He got neutered and up to date on all vetting. He was
    then diagnosed with luxating patellas!! The hope is that this problem
    can be managed with supplements and not surgery but we haven't even had
    a chance to find out if that will work b/c by Thursday, sweet Pharaoh
    was diagnosed with Parvo. Parvo is costly to treat but this boy has so
    much heart we just couldn't decline treatment, we just knew we had to
    give Pharaoh a chance!! Can you help Pharaoh? Had his first family
    only taken the time to take him to the vet as a puppy, he wouldn't be
    fighting for his life right now........
    Donations to his costly Parvo treatment are needed and appreciated. Any
    amount helps!!
    Donations to his treatment can be called in directly to the vet
    (Allatoona Animal Hospital, 678-445-1111, CCHS Acct #1241), made via
    Paypal or by check. Please please let me know if you can contribute to
    his care at wittle13@yahoo.com

    Debra :) thank you for positive thoughts :) And yes here in canada all we get are federal loans and provincial loans , it still only covered the cost of my tuition which is something And we did sell the car to help with a few things , and here in canada people either go back to there country or apply from within the country but they must always have a valid status , visitor visa , work permit , student etc .. :) if we're lucky by September we will have some news from Canada immigration :) that he is eligible for a open work permit :) My dad is doing better now , he went in for a check up with the specialist and yes the tumor was cancerous so he will have to go back in 3 months again to get checked out , and etc so keep track of things :) I can't wait to finish school and get a job - and even start back again with horses -ha probably end up taking a a equine sciences diploma program online afterwards , And yes I worked at the track some things they do are horrible , others are great and take amazing care of them it's a hit and miss !

    Good to know about the Vizslas.. really lovely dogs - I met one at my Vet office the other day and he was a truly stunning dog. The owner told me they are super up for hiking which was a major plus. Gotta love our dogs who keep our toes jumping, heheh! Looove the Shiba-Inu story! I have been wary of the Shibas cause I have met more than a handful - and none of them turned out to be very nice with ppl out side of "their ppl". I was afraid they might be too sensitive for my lifestyle, but they are soooooo pretty!! With those coats! –if you make it over you can bring your BW =) heheh! This is just a random side comment - but in looking at a bunch of different breeders, I'm surprised that so many of them don't describe their dogs temperaments/behaviors etc. They talk about their breeding programs but not much about the dogs - seems like every real Basenji breeder's site has a page devoted to 'WARNING!' curious owners to be.. heheh! although I read this on a Husky breeders site and I had to laugh: "Left unattended for long periods of time can lead them to seeking something to take the place of that lack of attention. They may even tear something up." rephrased in Basenji terms: Left unattended for long or short periods of time will lead them to seeking something to take the place of that lack of attention..They will utterly destroy a variety of objects in your house, this is to be expected. Deal.

    While you try not to, I am miserably failing at the same thing. I am literally sobbing in my cubicle. Really great story.
