Harmony is a Miniature Pinscher, blind and diabetic and a very happy girl!  Harmony is energetic, loves giving kisses, curling up with you (or in a blanket or her kennel) and enjoys her walks.  Harmony would literally be happy cuddling with her human 24-hours a day - she is a lovey, this one.  Harmony gets along well with our entire pack, has tons of personality and is a positive and happy girl.   

Harmony was nearly euthanized by her past human, then our vet's office called and asked if we could take her in.  She's been fully vetted, HW- and on HW preentative and her diabetes is completely under control requiring 2 shots daily.  Harmony is completely blind yet is extremely smart and has mapped our two homes and yards out, goes up and down stairs easily and travels about comfortably.

Harmony now has a Furever Home and family with Mandy and Jacob and their pack.  We will always love Harmony and are thankful for all the joy she brought to our pack and family.

 Macey (Zihna)

On May 2, 2010  I  carried perfect Macey for the last time in this world, to a backyard burial site, and now she is waiting, playing at Rainbow Bridge.

Val and I are so thankful to each of you for your support and especially to those who brought Macey to us: Danielle, Colleen & Karen who facilitated Macey to BDRA, Kim for noticing an issue during transport and keeping her in VA (which allowed Andrew to go to Karen & Eric and on to a Forever Home).  Kim and Val then spent a Sunday transporting this sweet girl back home to us.

Though a BDRA doggie, Macey had good vision; she was mostly deaf and had neurological issues and learning disabilities.  Macey truly was at home and we were perfect for her.  Val has a deaf sister and a daughter, Kayla, that passed away at 16 from heart failure and also had some issues that Macey faced.  So - though not blind at all - Macey through BDRA found herself in our home, the one right place in the world for her.

That same day, I did a write-up for Macey's adoption page and we laughed about it, knowing Macey would not be adopted - too many issues.  Macey would live all her life with us and Val was already figuring what to do next winter as Macey just loved being outdoors all day and would pout and whine when kept in. 

Of course we built her a special pen, placed along a tree line for shade plus covered too.  Macey would play there, with us or alone, sometimes with Mama Buffy or neighbor doggie Rascal.  She loved to lie low, ready to pounce on her prey - us!  Macey enjoyed her rawhides, stuffies and being loved on.  It took awhile, yet she gave such good kisses and loved the ritual of nighttime loving before bed, a loving she received each and every night ... good for her and even better for us.

All of us will pass, though we know not when.  Some will have long lives, others like Macey short ones.  We can only hope to really have lived ... Macey really did live.  Macey played, she was happy, she loved us and we loved Macey.  Macey knew she was home here and fit right in to our pack of misfits, defectives and cast-offs.  Macey was a Bassim and a BDRA doggie and again Val and I thank each of you for helping make that true.  Please enjoy lovely Macey's pictures, attached.
