    Thank you all for your kind words! It almost brings me to tears of joy right now to see her laying in the grass by the pool on a beautiful sunny day in California and knowing that shes gonna be OK. Of course I wish I could have done more for more dogs in her village (I DID help bring 2 of her puppies to the US though, they have arrived safely in Colorado today!) Segbwema, I know what you mean about the dogs having to fend for themselves… The village where I lived for 8 months didn't have any running water or electricity... so it definitely put things in perspective! Right now Laliti and I are BOTH feeling like we've won the lottery : ) Patty, yeah I hope Laliti doesnt take the word "mutt" the wrong way : ) I think I'd pin her to look a lot like a Basenji/Black lab mix.... (obviously shes not mixed with any lab, but just for the sake of describing her appearance) because she has a diluted Basenji appearance with a larger body and a thicker coat like a black lab....

    Better that they get a check up at the vets as this doesn't seem to clear up. Might they have licked the bird poop as well as the feed? I know that birds can carry disease. I would haven't have thought suet would cause caused an ongoing problem. Let us know what the vet decides please.

    Shaye's MomS
    The first time I brought Shaye to her vet, he had never seen one before - he told me he was delighted to be able to get to know another breed, and has since gone online and has talked with other vets and researched everywhere he could think of so he could find out if there were any special things to be aware of in treating her. Most vets will go out of their way to school themselves if your dog is one he/she has not treated, I think. He is now wonderful with Shaye and with Gemma too, and I'm glad I let her be the "guinea pig."

    Hmmm - I posted a baby puppy pic with puppy in a hand that was dark brindle, and I think I posted pics of Foxy and Cami and Cami is a very dark brindle so the pic was of a red and a brindle.

    yes the M is for Mia in the tree, and we all have one since our names are Michelle and Mike lol. People say her coat looks painted on all the time actually. It's very soft, and she barely sheds unless she's nervous. I feed her these natural/organic treat. Vida for coat and skin, and Pet Botanics Omega Treats with chicken and sweet potatoes. She absolutly adores them! http://www.petco.com/shop/product.aspx?sku=1107534&cm_ven=pricegrab&cm_cat=14&cm_pla=1107534&cm_ite=1107534 I was trying to find a link for the Pet Botanics product but no luck. I get these at Petsmart, but I am sure they have them anywhere. Just look for something promoting Omega 3 or 6, and natural or organic is the way to go :) I noticed a diffrence in her coat maybe after a month. I give her about 2 treats of each kind a day.
