I, too, want to thank Doug for his efforts. When we heard about Jenny and Canoe last fall on the List I wrote to Doug and he hooked me up with the rescue folks and now we have another wonderful dog in our lives. While we were greatly saddened by Canoe's bloat episode and subsequent death, and we mourn her, we are also grateful every day for what Jenny has brought into our lives. She is the Grande Dame of our house -- she reclines regally while our 2 yr old son puts party hats and bowls on her head. She doesn't care at all if he accidentally steps on her tail. She just hangs out while he hugs her and snuggles her on the floor. We are so happy to be able to give her someplace to enjoy what years she has left. And in return, she sleeps by our bedside, snoring gently (or sometimes not so gently!) and gazes at us with devotion in her big brown eyes (or maybe it's just that sandwich I was holding...). In two weeks she will take her CGC test. We love her to bits and we wouldn't have known about her if it hadn't been for Doug.
