I just happened to be online when you posted this, and just wanted to say how much me and my wife agree with you about abuse. When I met Jean in 2007 she was living in Mexico rescuing dogs off the streets and finding homes for them mainly in Arizona. There were easily 20 dogs or more about the house. Jean was English as it happened and so am I. I went out to Mexico permanently in 2008 from SW England with my GSD, Pharaoh, and just loved all the dogs. But we wanted to be married and I thought that we would be better moving to Payson, AZ. When we came through the US Border the officer said how many dogs did we have. I answered 15, all with their medical certificates. The officer leaned out and called to his fellow officer in the next booth: “Hey Jake, there’s a guy here with 15 dogs!” He then waved us through saying it was too much trouble to look through all the papers.

That was in 2010. Now we are down to 5 and living very happily in Southern Oregon! The dogs are wonderful. Perfect companions!

Thank you for your reply. Yes Alice was the only survivor of the litter and her mother. She was 6 months old when I got her. It took a year before she would look me in the eye. She became the most loving intuitive and fun loving animal. She was shy around strangers especially men. I believe it was a man that caused the evil. Anyway keep up the good work. The best in all you do for Max and myself. This is a pic of the dynamic duo at the Pizza place. Lol. Waiting not so patiently. Lol. Sorry about the poor quality.
