Sorry I haven't updated Mavis' blog in awhile, school started again and that coupled with work has left me brain dead and exhausted. Mavis is doing great. She is such a happy go lucky gal. Her friend Porsche was adopted by a great family - YAY! I miss seeing her face at adoptions and having her lay in my lap, but I know she is much happier living with a real family and cuddling up the couch to watch TV. Now it's Mavis' turn don't y'all think? I know some of you are reluctant to take on a dog with potential medical issues, but aren't those the dogs that need loving and compassionate homes the most? The cute little puppies will get adopted, they always do (Mavis' puppies were adopted within a week of being available) yet Mavis is still waiting ONE YEAR and THREE MONTHS later! I am saddened by the dismissal of Mavis as a potential pet when people find out she may have a kidney issue. This poor girl has been waiting so long, is so healthy and just wants someone to love her as much as she loves them. She doesn't know that she may get sick in the future, heck - WE don't know that she'll EVER get sick - yet people pass her by and ask about the "healthy" dogs. I tell ya, if I had room for all the old, sick, three-legged, blind and deaf dogs jut wallowing away watiing for someone to see their true potential - I WOULD TAKE THEM ALL! Anyway, I digress. Mavis is good, she is full of life and love and in my heart i KNOW someone just perfect will reach out to her and pull her in for a hug and never let her go.
She goes in for a repeat blood test tomorrow and I'll post her results. Keep your paws crossed.
Here's a picture of Mavis at adoptions last weekend, looking very Marilyn Monroe..... hence today's post title....
