Laura and Precious

Precious, our little white toy poodle, is just like her name. My sister and I promised our other sister we would take care of Precious if she ever needed another home. That sister did leave us two years later when Precious was six-years-old. She is now 15 ½ and thanks to Dr. Sage and Horn, is doing well—though she does have a persistent cough. She walks slower than she used to but that does not keep her from going on walks every day.

As for Laura, our coal black Shih Tzu, she is a caution! She is 6 ½ year old—she was a momma for 5 years and confined to taking care of puppies. The breeder wanted a good home for her now that her “puppydom” was over. She had little or no training before she had 3 litters so she is really shy of strangers—that did not bother us because we were going to teach her all kinds of things, like walking straight ahead instead of circling and tripping us with the leash. Well after one year of training, she now walks straight, most of the time (unless a stranger approaches.) However, she does know and love her owners and treats us really well in her house and her backyard. Precious occasionally has to endure being pushed aside as Laura struts past her with gusto.

Thanks to Dr.’s Sage and Horn, Laura is also in good health and we love both girls to pieces and we will never give up on Laura!
