Smokey was her favorite toy!

Through the neighborhood---down the block there lived a big black male Mastiff & she loved to tease him!
Arrival Story:
My boyfriend Shane bought Elly and her sister Reina for me as a birthday present. He came home one night & asked me to help him get some gear out of the car....I went outside & lo and behold, two HUGE puppies in the back of the car! They were about 2 months old & weighed 45 pounds each. Big ole slobbery bundles of puppy breath!
Bio:
Sadly, we ended up selling Elly and Reina a few months later. We were just too busy to give the girls the attention they deserved. We sold Elly to a couple from Phoenix. Four or five months later, our vet called because someone in Phoenix had found Elly roaming around (she was still wearing the rabies tag from our vet). Unfortunately the vet didn't call us until about a week later & wasn't able to give us the phone number of the individual who found her. If anyone recognizes her picture, please let us know how she's doing. I miss her so much!

My doggie horoscope says "Very dominant, brave and bold. Bursting with energy. They love attention and lots of love and cuddling. They love anything new and exciting and take great joy in living. Never shy, afraid of nothing. Could be difficult to housetrain... patience, persistence and repetition a must. "
That fits me & my sister Reina perfectly.

Elly Belly,
i'm so lucky that you lived with us, even if it was just for a short time. you always made me laugh with that big ole slobbery grin of yours!

Mom asked me to post this...she's really worried that our local shelter doesn't have a microchip reader....
I just spoke to a woman named Louisa at the Clovis Animal Shelter. She told me that they DO NOT have a microchip reader for pets. I asked her why not, and she said they used to have one but it didn't read all the chips properly & opened up liability for the city--which I think is a load of crap. I told her that the city would be even MORE liable if they do not have a reader and end up euthanizing pets that are chipped. She kept interrupting me & was very argumentative. But I digress...
I am going to have my pets microchipped next month and I am just dumbfounded that our shelter doesn't even have a reader. Louisa said "they" (whoever "they" are) are CONSIDERING the purchase of an "industrial" chip reader (I think she meant universal), but there's no telling if one will be purchased or not.
So I got the name & address of Lt. Grah, who apparently is in charge of deciding whether it's worth the city's time & money to get a microchip reader. I'm writing him a letter encouraging the purchase of a microchip reader. I'll probably write a letter to the newspaper editor as well. I think it's absolutely ridiculous that Clovis does not have a reader. Microchipping is becoming the method of identifying lost animals. El Paso recently started requiring animals to be microchipped, and Chicago's city council will be voting on a similar measure soon. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13121966/site/newsweek/)
If you have pets or are an animal lover, I ask that you contact your local animal shelters and find out if they have readers. If they don't, PLEASE find out who to contact about acquiring one. (And get your pets chipped!)
AVID chip, the brand my vet uses, offers a special program to provide FREE readers to local shelters. You can find information about it here: http://mail.avidid.com/web/pets/index.html. By the way, I asked Louisa if the Clovis shelter would be interested, and she very abruptly said NO.
If you live in Clovis, please find the time to write or call Lt. Grah at the Clovis Police Dept (address below). If you can, write to the newspaper or city council as well. And PLEASE forward this to anyone who might be interested.
