Comments: Here's Taz at the Salton Sea. Taz thrives on adventure and the thrill of the chase. He's known as Taz the Tormentor to Fluffy (background)& our cats. To humans (the mail carrier excluded) he is a loverboy whose eyes can melt the polar ice. When he sits on my lap I just want to burst! (Husband loves him too!)

Age Diagnosed w/Addison's: 5 1/2 years old
Comments: Here’s Sammy standing on her perch on the deck. She enjoys laying there keeping a look-out for squirrels and noisy birds whereupon she will run across the yard and bark at them, occasionally attempting to jump up a tree. She has a small wading pool she enjoys jumping into on hot days and a place inside at the end of the bed at night. She’s a real ‘people person’ and enjoys a lot of attention. Sammy shares the yard with our two other dogs. She is doing well on Percorten-V and Prednisone.

Breed: Borzoi
Sex: Female
Age Diagnosed w/Addison's: 4 1/2 years old
Comments:
The beautiful Mercedes is my rescue girl, found at 15 months in a cage in terrible condition, afraid of everyone and everything. Today she is the social butterfly of our group, the first one to meet a stranger. As a
working therapy dog Mercedes is always a hit where ever we visit, especially
when she is accompanied by her tiny companion, Morgan (above). Three weeks after Mercedes' AD diagnosis she
underwent surgery for bloat and stomach torsion. She's got a tough road ahead but she's been through worse and with her spirited approach to life
she's well on her way to full healing.
