: It's a girl....AGAIN!!!
: vmimom2006 February 23, 2009, 01:57:04 AM: Yep that's right all I adopted Aurora on friday. She is a total sweetheart! Such a gentle soul. Her story is a heartbreak. She was beaten by her breeder/owner. She had four litters each litter was only 1 pup. She was 5 when she had her last pup which was this last August. She lived outside in a pen & was going to be put down since she didn't have big litters. Then when she was rescued she was spayed and almost died-couldn't stop her bleeding. But even while she was laying there she would wag her tail when the rescue petted her. She is such a happy girl now. An angel in the house unattended and loves Athena & all the kitties. She sleeps in the bed with me & Athena. She is a perfect fit for us and we are so glad to have her. Being 5 and due to her situation could not have the gastroplexy when spayed I do worry that I might not have her for years but it really doesn't matter. She is a fighter for life - she has proved that. So we are going to love her and make the rest of her life the best she has ever known!!

When I hear that people beat thier animals, I swear my chest tightens and I want to beat on them for a bit.
There is never a need to raise a hand to an animal, EVER!
You are both lucky to have one another. I look forward to seeing more of her and Athena.

: Kermit February 24, 2009, 12:48:41 PM: She is beautiful! And so lucky to be rescued by you!!! I think Danes love being around other Danes. I'm sure Athena will make her feel very welcome and show her the ropes of what it's like to be in a loving home.

I LOVE hearing rescue success stories and I think you are wonderful for giving a 5 year old dog a chance.

Awesome. Congratulation s.
