Pictures Needed!

I think I'd like Daina's story to be on your site. I don't have any pictures though

Here is her story:

I was driving and found two eight to ten week old puppies sitting on the side of the high way... I took them to the vet immedietly. Luckily, they were not hurt. Hungry, Thirsty wet, and cold. The vet said from the looks of it they had been thrown out of a car. When I got home I put them in blankets and in my bed, and fed them and gave them water, naming them Daina and Tina. In the next couple of weeks I took them to the vet to get their shots and she told me they were Rottweiler/Mastiff. I certainly could not have two HUGE Mastiffs in my home, so I posted Tina on Petfinder. She found a home in a matter of days, and a week after she was at her new home. Daina is now 2 years old, and surpsringly not at all scared of cars or people. It may sound foolish, but I think it's best to get a dog from the pound because they are grateful for being saved, and they make the best because of that. That's Daina's story!

You could add my Rebel boy to your site if you'd like.

Rebel, my miniature dachshund born on July 4th 2002, was bred by my father, he's one of those people who thinks it's ok to breed your purebred dogs every now and again or when it just happens which is wrong. He doesn't do it for the money, I think he just thinks it's what you are supposed to do. I've discussed this many times with him to no avail until recently. I told him about all the facts I could but it didn't seem to phase him. I believe that he has finally realized how much it hurts me when he allows his dogs to breed. Rebel was born normal to the eye but as he got a little older you can see some of the signs of bad breeding.

Rebel has macular degeneration which is where his pupils appear to be "broken" or as if they are seperating. That's not the technical definition though. My vet says his vision is normal. Rebel was also cryptorchid but he's been neutered years ago. He also has hair loss on his chest which appears to be getting a little worse as he gets older. You can now see where his coat is thinning in other areas of his body such as his ears.

I wouldn't trade him for the world and I'm lucky that he doesn't have any major problems. I love my little man.
