Arrival Story:
Swiffer came to us just after September 11, 2001 from Missouri. In fact, he should have come sooner, but our flights were cancelled. He has since won us some fantastic friends in our Westie Rescue contacts here in the Boston area.

Bio:
We had the scare of our lives nearly two years ago when we found out that not only did Swiffer have bladder stones, but a large bladder tumor as well. Through some miracle, the tumor turned out to be benign, and although he has had a second surgery for his stones, the combination of diet and medication seems to be helping him out. Swiffer has the added bonus of having one daddy who works at MIT, which is dog-friendly. So Swiffer rarely has to stay at home during the day. In fact, he usually has one or two other pup pals at the office.
