My surgery was postponed until Wednesday the 26th....dang!! I am anxious to have it over with. We have dogs coming in Saturday. These are dogs who were ordered before I found out I needed surgery. We desperately need foster families!! We have Angel, a pretty blue girl in Kalispell who was returned who needs foster care. We also just got word that MTV is being returned. Her owner under estimated her time and energy for a fun greyhound 18 month old puppy. Both of these girls will attend the picnic and you can meet them there.

Sad news....Sam our foster dog has been limping off and on, which is always a bad sign with a greyhound. His pain seemed chronic and may have been the cause of him lashing out at some of the other foster dogs. Although the xrays were not absolutely conclusive it was safe to assume that he had the beginnings of an bone tumor. Whatever he had seemed to be moving fast as he seemed more uncomfortable each day. The heart wrenching decision was reached to release Sam from his pain. Although Sam's quality of life was diminishing already it is heart breaking to say good bye to such a sweet boy.
