    "wild" Dog

    Just ordered it - may have to print out 1,000 copies to hand out in my travels; ONLY if I like the presentation ;-) I picture is worth 1,000 words and I am getting a bit tired of explaining and handing out Kim's tiny card. Thanks for the link!!!

    Quirky Aidogs

    My pups also have small rituals that delight and amaze me; everyday is a gratefully a bit different. I just got back from 6wks of camp travel along the Cal coast and eastern Sierras where I had to explain the breed and their amazing behavior to sooo many people; on leash, off leash, beaches, campgrounds, hiking, small towns, gas stations - EVERYWHERE! They shine wherever they go and make my life so very much fun. Thanks to all of you that share often, you inspire me.
  5. Sorry... I meant I've been in touch with Kim since these issues arose.
  6. Good reminder... I've in touch since these issues arose.
  7. Hi Karen, I was so sorry to read about Danza's illness! Like you I tend to drift away from the AID forum but for some reason today I logged in and read your post. I felt compelled to reply because it sounds as if we have AIDogs with similar health issues. My dog, Kai, is 5.5 yrs old and has had autoimmune and kidney disease since before he was 2. He gets very sick, very quickly, with severe flu like symptoms several times a year. My vet is fantastic; always compassionate and very open to all avenues of health care. During these episodes, through blood tests, we also discovered that
  8. Exercise is my #1 best option. Next I crated my dogs with a raw marrow bone - soon they wanted me to leave so they could have a 'high level" treat. I do like the German Shepherd option too!
  9. Stunning photo is right! I LOVE those eyes; it's always the eyes...
  10. I LOVE the name! Happy dog years to you.
  11. What a gift Chenoa was.. my heart aches for your loss. Take care,
  12. Looks like an eagle on his chest - spectacular marking!

    "what Do People Say"

    While in Arizona I had someone ask me if Tiva and Kai were coyotes. I said, "Yes, I just caught them and trained them on the way down the trail. " I had him going for just a second or two before I went into the AID story... I'm thinking of having flyers printed to hand out as I travel! I have also met some very fun people interested in hearing about Kim and his dogs - just one more attribute to these dogs - making friends.
  18. I love the paw lifting thing!
  19. Dear NashAsh, I have been on the road camping with my 2 AI dogs and just recently saw your post. I too have an AIdog with epilepsy. He is a 4yr old male named Kai. 2 years ago the vet called it juvenile epilepsy and I did notice fewer seizures as time went on. However last week, 2 years later he had another seizure; the symptoms are as you described but not as extreme nor are they as frequent. I can imagine how worried and anxious you are feeling as it breaks my heart to see Kai in distress. The other reason I wanted to respond to your post is that many, many years ago I had a Dobie/Shepherd m
  20. Have you seen these? "An Oglala Lakota tipi " and "Teepees on the Plain" paintings by Karl Bodmer (1809-1893) that both show AIDs.

    Something New

    With my head hanging... AND no covers. That said the pups were so close I was toasty
  22. Another antler choice: I but antlers by the pound in varied sizes because I have so many dogs around. This company has been great to deal with: elkusa.com in Del Norte, CO
  23. An Aussie? Some people's taste is all in their mouth. Great photo and we all know who the real winners are...
  24. How did I miss that? maybe it will come around again.
