Please help us cover the expense of
Lady-dog's 2nd TPLO knee surgery
to repair the torn ACL in her left knee (about $3,000).
Click here to see the procedure Lady-dog went through
four years ago when she had her first TPLO knee surgery.

Juana walks Lady-dog around the park after Lady returns from knee surgery in January 2008.
She now (April 2012) has a torn the ACL in her left hind leg and will stay inside H1 in a crate
with periodic walks on leash in the park until we can raise funds for her second TPLO knee surgery.

Subject: Today's Visit

Juana and Bill,
 
Just a brief note to let you know how very much Nancy and I enjoyed today's visit.  As I had heard, the dog runs are all so clean, and the dogs are all so well-taken-care-of and so happy.  What a blessing you both are to these wonderful beings that God created.  Nancy said that your shelter truly set the standard; she mentioned to me several times on our way back how impressed she was, and how happy and clean all the dogs were.  She said they truly were part of a big family, and, of course, I agreed. 
 
Thanks again for letting us visit; Straydog is a wonderful place.  I was glad to see the doggies I had seen before (Rosita has always had a spot in my hear) and glad to see the ones that I had only heard of or read about in the newsletter -- I can't start naming them -- I was thrilled to see them all.
 
Thanks again,
 
Joanne Pollard

soon as we get the time to complete all the steps involved, which steps include:

(1) The TRANSCRIPTION Process, which entails having someone transcribe or summarize
whatever is said on our evening and/or morning 5-to-15-minute Audio Report;

(2) The PHOTO PROCESSING (which David Rentz and others do, staying only about three days behind); and

(3) The COMPOSING and FINAL EDITING of the PAGES (which I try to find time to do).
