writhing...and I thought wholly crap!! As I walked out the door, they said "good luck with that buzzsaw!!".... The rest is history - I fell in love with her as I transported her to her fosterhome in Connecticut. I bought my house so I could adopt her. I had her for a wonderful 5 years and 3 months (not always an easy 5 years and 3 months tho.......LOL) she was pulled in July, and she came home to me forever Thanksgiving Day 2002........ I miss that old girl every day of my life. She was a special old broad. At 19 years old, she still had spunk and fire and a mean old nasty RATitude!! Gotta admire and respect that for a dog that age!! I still wonder if there was anything I could have done to prevent her from dying....... RIP Sasha........ I love you my old fart, and always will......... I recently found her shelter paperwork. At the top of the page of her intake papers, CAUTION is written in bold letters.......LOL She was found at 4:13 am running around the parking lot of an Albany, NY Police Station......... When I first saw her, she was vicious!! Mean and nasty. I was told to pull her, so I did... the shelter people used a rabies stick - and literally stuffed her into a crate. The old girl was fighting for her life the entire time, growling, biting,

Aw, I never meant Sasha but I love her anyway. She so reminds me of Mitzy even though Mitzy loves people she's a buzz saw with other dogs sometimes....it's all bark though and no bite. Much love to Sasha playing like a pup right now up in doggie heaven! She is one heck of rat!

We really got a feel for her through your stories Sue. We loved her too thanks to the way you told her stories. I like that you still post about her.

The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too ~Mom to my good boy Fred and my crazy girl Alice~

Sasha was just full of personality. Sue, you did everything humanly possible to keep Sasha healthy and alive. If you hadn't been her mommy, she wouldn't have lived the extra years that she did. I hope you can put those doubts to rest.
