This guy is in danger - the ACO there euths often. I got my old kees,
Alvy, from there. He was marked by the ACO as “mean” - and too sick to live.
He’s now living with me - very gentle and very healthy (after a 5-day stay at
my vets when he came in). Can someone please help Aspen? I will spring and transport as far as I can.

【Alvy the keeshond; rescued by Keeshond Rescue of North America】

【Third posting】
Just heard from the director of volunteers at the shelter and she said
Aspen is very sweet and friendly with everyone. Can’t someone help this guy? I
am begging. A volunteer can easily get him to Lexington and I can transport
this weekend.

Thanks.

Urgent: Keeshond mix needs rescue

February 3rd, 2010

From Keesmom’s blog:

I am writing to say that there appears to be an elderly Keeshond mix being held at the high-kill Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Center. ‘MADACC’ does not have an adoption process and euthanizes the majority of its animals after their stray hold, the only dogs that get out are the ones that rescues are able to take. Because of this, I am hoping that someone in keeshond rescue will be able to help this girl! She has been there since the 25th of January so her time is VERY limited!

http://tinyurl.com/ykkt49u

The shelter is calling her a “sheltie mix” but she looks more Keesie to me than anything else! Her ID# at the shelter is A202216. I sure hope you will be able to help this girl!
Thank you

Get well soon Leo!

January 26th, 2010

Leo (our cousin from Japan) had a dental extraction ubder general anesthesia. He was tired and sleeping all day. The Vet must have heard a murmur at some point because an echo was done and aortic insufficiency was diagnosed. Let’s all wish Leo a speedy recovery from the tooth extraction and that the aortic valeve problem turns out to be insignificant.

Leo is one of Keesmom’s 2 Keeshonds. Jade is the other one. A link to her website is in the right margin of this blog. Her site is always worth reading.

If you adopt me as your dog, remember:

January 23rd, 2010

1. My life is likely to last ten to fifteen years. Any separation from you will be painful for me.
Remember that before you adopt me.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me…it’s crucial to my well- being.

4. Don’t be angry to me for long and don’t lock me up as punishment.
You have your work, your entertainment and your friends. I have only you.

5. Talk to me sometimes. Even though I don’t know your words, I do understand your voice when its speaking to me.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, I’ll never forget it.

7 Remember before you hit me that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones of your hand but I choose not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being uncooperative, obstinate or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I’m not getting the right food, or I’ve been out in the sun too long, or my heart is getting old and weak.

9. Take care of me when I get old; you ,too, will grow old.

10. Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say you can’t bear to watch it or let it happen in my absence. Everything is easier for me if you are there. Remember — I love you.

Give or take a million

January 8th, 2010

I saw this on the local news and thought it was very funny. A couple won a lottery of about $160 million (alone). The county they live in was going to block the prize until the couple paid the county $1 million for something like stealing money from a charity (homeless shelter, I think). The news shot showed the couple yelling and screaming “Liars, liars, we never did anything wrong and we will not pay the 1 million. We will fight this!”

OK this is just me. But if I won $80 million (after taxes), I am now so rich that I don’t care that Uncle Sam just took away $80 million in taxes. I also don’t care if some stupid county wants another million of it. I still have $79 million! Yes, to clear my name, I would still fight it, but only after getting my hands on the $79 million. On second thought,I would probably be so happy that, I really woudn’t care to much about my “good name” anymore.
