Arrival Story: This little cutie pie came into our lives on Wednesday, February 27, 2008. We had no plans of adding another dog into our home, but here she is. The pound site said she would be euthanized on Tuesday, but we persisted and rescued her. I'm guessing at her age and at her birthday because we have no idea when she was born. We're using the date we rescued her. The pound personnel said she was picked up wandering the streets. She is super thin. You can feel her bones. That cute little face with her pleading eyes said it all...we had to rescue her. She is the sweetest little dog with a wonderful disposition that it makes me wonder how she ended up on the streets then at the pound. Her hair was matted so bad we had to get her shaved, but now she's clean and feeling great. When you look into those pleading eyes you can't help but pick her up and give her a big ole hug. I wish more people would think about rescuing animals from the pounds. It feels great to save a life!
Bio: I was picked up roaming the streets of St. Martin Parish. My humans don't know my birthday or age and I'm not sure how to tell them. They've decided to use the date they brought me home for birthday celebrations.

UPDATE:
It's with great sadness I have to report on Wed., August 13, 2008, Miracle was diagnosed with Auto Immune Hemolytic Anemia. It is a serious and often fatal blood disease in which the body attacks its own red blood cells. Symptoms include: fatigue, pale mucas membranes, increased water consumpsion, and food aversion. We saw no signs until the morning she showed signs of weakness. She went through a lot in the short time we had her including the removal of a piece of metal from her stomach which I suspect may have lead to this disease. The toxins were probably already doing their damage to my poor little baby. She had seven teeth removed because they were in such bad shape, but we thought she was doing well. She was happy so this took us completely by surprise. To learn more about this disease visit Mica's page at mica-the wonderpup. After spending a week running back and forth to the vet's offices, a specialist, having her spleen removed and receiving a blood transfusion she began Prednisone. She had a good report during her checkup on Monday (8/18), but went downhill early Tuesday a.m. We were looking forward to giving her more years of happiness, but it was cut short by this horrific disease. She will be forever missed as she left her pawprints all over my heart.

Mom lit a candle at 4:00 p.m. today in honor of Chela cuz her mama is holding a special memorial ceremony today in the park. It is a beautiful service too....she made a special memorial card which she handed out last week. She's releasing balloons for Chela, Coco, Shasta and Ginger. And...she is releasing one for me and Sheba with a card that says our mom misses us and loves us with all her heart. Me, Sheba, Chela, Coco and all the angel furs are all watching the memorial service and smiling down on all those in attendance. We are all thankful we have such wonderful caring mamas.
To have loved and then said farewell is better than to have never loved at all.
For all of the times that you stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and
returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you. For the care that you gave to me
so unselfishly. For all of these things I am grateful and thankful. I ask that you grieve
not for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each others lives.
My life was fuller because you were there, not as owner, but as my friend. Today, I am
as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and
the sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures. I can run, jump and play
and do all of the things that I did in my youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints
and no regrets and no aging. We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know
that togetherness is forever. You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such
as you are very rare and unique. Don't hold the love that you have within yourself.
Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies,
and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.
