It’s been good news about some of my previous stories, so as is my custom, I’ll try to keep my dear readers apprised.

I’m sure you remember Tucker, the tiny 1-pound tea cup Yorkie that suffers from seizures. He has been brought to experts and had extensive blood tests. 

The prognosis was possibly a liver enzyme, but all tests were clear and the final analysis was juvenile epilepsy, which there is a good chance he may outgrow. Since then, he has been on seizure medicine and he hasn’t had an episode, which is the longest period since we’ve had him.

Some years ago, I helped a pup with a broken leg that had to be removed. The wonderful lady who still has him works in the medical field, and has assisted in Tucker’s fees.

She is prepared to give him medicine the rest of his life if needed, and my sweet little ball of energy is now sharing a home with my old three-legged pup.

The 12-year-old Min-Pin that I thought had a tumor actually had internal stones, which were safely removed. I spent the day with Mr. Delvin Adams, the wonderful rescuer that owns Buddie, the Min-Pin, whose fees I assisted with. 

I teared up when I saw him back with the rest of Delvin’s team. Twenty-one rescues, and each receives the care as if it was an only pet.

I asked Delvin if he finds homes for them.

“I sure do,” he said while smiling. “My house.” 

He has met Verna Wilkins, of Forever Dream Sanctuary, and was impressed with her rescue program for elderly dogs. He also has worked with Brother Wolf in Asheville. Delving is a kindred spirit who related to me that he’d be honored to join my rescue squad. I must be careful with him, though. I can’t give him a dog to foster, as he’ll keep it.

Lastly, Delvin and I visit ed Krudo at Foothills Humane Society; I figured another person meeting him may help him find a home. 

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — when it comes to my kids, I don’t have any shame.

People often call me about a certain animal I’ve written about. In Krudo’s case, only a face-to-face and help from the shelter staff is best.

Under the right circumstances, I would be glad to assist.

Till then, God speed.

Thanks for listening.
