Arrival Story: Mo was a gift to my daughter from her Dad. Jazz was to be hers, but he and I bonded during his illness, and he proved to be a one -person dog.
So, to make our daughter happy, her Dad decided to procure a puppy. He purchased a puppy sight-unseen from somone he worked with. He then sent a friend to pick up the pup. The friend selected our Mo. Sending a friend to choose your dog is not something I would have done, but the result was wonderful- Mo became ours.
Bio: Mo was in terrible shape when he arrived. He was sickly, skinny and flea-covered . The groomer was afraid he might not be able to tolerate the flea bath, but without it, he would have become more and more ill from anemia, etc. After many vet visits, he did get better. He was so ill during his first months with us, we had to keep him separated from Jazz. So he spent most of his time in his Girl's room. As a result, he was not socialized properly, and to this day still has a fear of men. He also suffered from separation anxiety for the first few months, and chewed up an entire bathroom. He had an emergency gastroscopy to remove staples he ate. Then he had surgery for liver shunt at the University of Tenn. After that surgery, he gained weight and his fur got fluffy. He's a funny little guy- very protective of me and my daughter. My husband has tried everything to make friends with Mo, but Mo cannot abide him, nor any other male. Mo is affectionate when it suits him, but he is not as fond of cuddling as is Jazz. He is our hairy little sweetheart, and the best watch dog around!

Well as you may have read, we were attacked by a big dog on Sunday evening. It was such a pretty day the Jazz-Mom decided to take us down to the hayfield for a run off leash. She put me and Jazz on leash for the walk down to the field, and carried Joy in her arms.
Mindy, the new dog, had been at our house for about 2 weeks. She lives outside, so we hadn't been around her before. Now if the Jazz-Mom had been smart, she would have checked to see how the husky would be around little dogs, before unleashing us. But she didn't, and once we were off leash, all chaos broke loose.
The Jazz-Mom ran around wildly, trying to keep Mindy off us, and gather us up. She finally got Jazz and me back on leash, and started the long walk back home, but Mindy kept coming for us even on our leashes. So the Jazz-Mom tried to pick me and Jazz up, and as she did , I charged Mindy, snapping and biting, and the big dog was either surprised or scared, for she backed off enough for the Jazz-Mom to get us picked up into her arms. The Jazz-Mom screamed for Boot Man to come. By a miracle he heard her from inside our house.
Somehow. Joy fell out of the truck as the J-M loaded us in. Joy took off running in panic, and Mindy grabbed her. It was horrible. I hope I never see Mindy again. If I do, I will not hold back the Mo Wrath.
