Arrival Story:
We desperately wanted a dog, so we checked out the Golden Retriever rescues. Finally there he was, online, in all his sweet glory. We went to meet him, and he jumped up on my husband as if to say, "OK, I pick you, you get me, now take me home!" We put him in the car, and he gave us so many kisses on the long drive home. He just knew what was going on. He has been a very happy, happy doggie since then. We, however, have been the truly blessed ones. He is just the sweetest guy and such a great addition to the family!

Wow, I can't believe it. My very own book is now being sold, "E-mails From Shilo." It is on Amazon and BarnesandNoble.com, and a whole bunch of stores. It was rather sneaky on Mom's part how this whole thing came about, but she said it would help others with their problems, telling them what I went through with my "issues" and conversations with my really smart friend, Sammy the Bassett Hound. You would not believe what he knows; all about the ancient wolves, how dogs came along, just amazing stuff.
This all started just because I was writing my buddy Max emails (I learned how to do this at my previous home before I was rescued, which is one of my main issues I discuss... often!) Mom found my writings on her computer and of course she couldn't read them but do you know what she went and did? She scoured the internet and actually found a program that translates dog writing into human. Of course there is all my dealings with other dogs, with Harley the cat, and wondering about such things as trees in the house, missing animals that are "gone for good" and, well, just what it is like being a dog. People have been saying it is a pretty funny book, but funny for dogs doesn't always translate to funny for humans, and vice versa, so I'll take their word for it. Oh, there are also lots of pictures.
Please let me know what you think of it if you read it.
Your Best Buddy,
Shilo
