Comments: Dakota is my most loyal friend ever! Our family consists of Dakota, three humans, 5 cats, Bill, (an Australian Shepherd) and Sadie (the Husky). I think sometimes that Dakota is part human - she seems to try and understand when I talk to her! I know she is mostly dog though because she loves to fetch - once she retrieved a ball over 100 times (we got tired of throwing it!) She may be Guinness World Record material!

Comments: Kaisor has been on DOCP for over a year now, along with a small amount of pred every other day. His "guardian angels" at the Cheshire Vet Hospital did a wonderful job at diagnosing Addison's right away and caring for him during his recovery. Without them, he would not be with us today. They are truly lifesavers.

Comments: Otis is just a big lovable guy! He was born deaf and we have created a bond so great it is unbelievable! In fact, if I leave town I have
to increase his prednisone! He doesn't like his Mom to be gone!
