Hi, I'm Diana. I thought since I will be posting here I'd tell everyone a little about me. I'm 22 years old, I recently graduated from college. I had a 9 year old Shih Tzu named Angie that I considered to be my sister and my best friend. Sadly she died on June 10, 2003 of IMHA (a blood disease). She was diagnosed and died within a few days and it was really hard because she was completely fine until three days before she died. My family was sick about Angie's death. We bought a black pug puppy a week later so we could focus our love and attention on her. Her name is Sylvia and we bought her from a pet store, which I now realize was a big no no. Sylvia will be the last purebred dog I own because there are so many homeless pets! Still, I'm glad that we bought her cause she is now a special member of my family. About three weeks ago my family also decided that we needed to save someone from a shelter, so we adopted Harley. Harley is a one year old Jack Russell mix that was a runaway. He was a little underweight and dirty. Since he is a runaway we don't know much about him, but he looked abused especially because he gets really worried when a hand is raised near him during play. Sylvia and Harley are getting along great! I will post some pictures if anyone is interested, but I have to teach myself how to do that still! It is a privilege to be a member of a board with people that love their pets as much as I do. Thank you! :D
