Hey everyone,
If y'all wouldnt mind, please pass this information on. We have to raise $3,000 to care for Kohl's wobblers at this point and we have only raised about $280.00. Kohl has his first MRI appointment in a week and we are no where near having the funds to complete the process. You can read more about Kohl by going to our website http://www.aabgdr.org Last year we homed 28 Danes. This year we have had to slow down in order to pay for Kohl's medical care. If you could take a moment and check the auctions maybe there is something you would like. We have collars and leads, movies, a Louise Peterson sculpture ( http://danesculptor.com ) and much more to come.
Please pass this along if you are so inclined.
The auctions can be found here: http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/ladeefire

Above and Beyond Great Dane Rescue

Hey everyone.
Things here are good, the boys are great :) I love them. Frank is an A-hole but very handsome and Django is still doing very well. AS i mentioned before he has been diagnosed with DCM Dialated cardio-myopathy or some such horridness. Basically it means he is going to eventually die of heart failure. It was a shock to us and it wasnt a shock to us. You see his brothers have died of it... well some of them anyway. We have been monitoring him with regular cardio visits. Unfortunately the day came in December where they looked at us and said "yes" but its mild. He goes back on the 11th to do a med check and make sure he is still OK. he will get another echo/doppler.
Other than that we are all okay. Django doesnt know he is sick so life for him has not changed. We still take our walks and wander around in the woods. We still love eachother enormously as well.
Thank you for your well wishes. i am going to be better at posting!
In my spare time (heh) I have been working Dane Rescue in my area. I am the VP of a rescue in Maine/NH. We placed about 30 danes last year and this year our first of the season is wobblers ;( and we are working a fundraiser to get him money for his treatment. Thats been really overwhelming.
So i will leave you with pics of my boys :)
cheers
