Arrival Story: Sylvie was adopted from the Watauga Humane Society in Boone, NC. She was transferred there from animal control in a nearby county where almost every dog is euthanized. She was shut down and shivering when we asked to open her cage. She ran through the dog door into the outside part of her cage when we opened the latch. I sat by the tiny opening and threw little peanut butter treats to her. She ate them and came closer and closer until I was able to pull her through and hold her close. She wouldn't walk, so I carried her away from the building onto a grassy area. There she came "alive" and was sweet and playful. We had brought our other dogs to meet her and they seemed to get along fine. We adopted her on the spot! How could we put her back where she had been so scared?

Bio: Sylvie had two vet visits shortly after adoption. We found out she is blind in her right eye either from birth or an old injury. She needed to gain some weight and get rid of roundworms. Despite two ultrasounds, the vet was unable to determine if she was spayed. We just have to watch her, and spay her right away if she goes into heat.
She is only about a year old and has unending energy. Our two old girls don't know what to make of her. She uses them as hurdles if they are in her path. Iris will agree to play at times. She was sick and scared in the car for the first two weeks, but after being taken for fun walks in a nearby park, she looks forward to rides, hops in the car on her own and looks out the windows. Every day we see progress toward the wonderful, relaxed dog she will soon become.

Forums Motto: Play with me and don't stop!

Woof, woof, Everyfur!! First of all, thanks to Dogster for featuring my diary two days in a row. We are all barking like crazy around here for that reason and one more. My old fursissies have trouble going up and down the 14 stairs to get outside to the yard, so the pawrents decided to put a sliding patio door off the dining room. Then we can all go out that way and it will only be three steps! TODAY all these men came to put it in and all us furkids have to be in the bedroom with mom there too, to keep us quiet! BOL!!! Metta is scared of all the noises as the wall is torn out, Iris is trying to herd Metta and keep her in check. I'm just here chewing my elk antler and it's not really bothering me much. Hope we can all get out for a walk in the park this afternoon.
We are having spring here now, even though we're in the mountains, and are all very happy with the warmer weather. We love our pals so much we are always barking around about how great they all are. Special love to our pal, Redford, who has sent several beautiful piccies for my page! Happy Tuesday to all you extra special super puppers! Love, Sylvie

Woof Everypup! Hope all my pals are getting to enjoy some great spring weather. My peeps put the outside chairs and table on the covered porch today and that is a sure sign of spring, I'm told.
Anyway, the exciting news is we got the results from my Wisdom Panel today. I didn't know what mom and dad were doing sticking that weird thing inside my cheek, not once but twice. But I guess it told people what breeds I am. I am 100% border collie on one side and 100% cocker spaniel on the other side. No other breeds were detected! Mom was kind of surprised because I weigh just 26 pounds, but who can argue with DNA?
Much love to all my pals and their families! Sylvie

Woof, woof Everypaw! We're all barking up a storm here this morning 'cuz I got chosen for Diary of the Day! Thank you, Dogster!! Maybe the Dogster peeps took pity on me after seeing my "cone picture" that mom took the day after I got spayed. I mean, how would you like two days when you had to go around with an inflatable tire around your neck? I was not happy, plus I didn't feel too good either. GOOD NEWS!! Yesterday that darned cone was removed for good! BOL!!! I never want to see it again. Anyway, many thanks to my pup pals who wrote with loving support. That was just the best. I love my pals!!! OK, three more days of leash walks, then back to NO RESTRICTIONS!! Dog park, here I come! Love and puppy kisses to Everyfur!!!!!!!
