GOIVE OUR HERO AND MAGAZINE BOY

Look at beautiful Giove from Italy! Never would anyone in their wildest fantasy have guessed that this dog, Giove would be on the cover of a Magazine together with his beautiful owner Erika.
Giove was rescued from a terrible shelter, (Giove is on the video with two ropes around his neck) put in another shelter, then in a kennel, and then in my house for a couple of weeks so his new family could come down and get him. He went through so many different tests. And he solved everything under our observation with big verve and great heart. I even took the magazine with me today when visiting the dog catchers they were the one providing us with Giove's Passport.

In this article you can read about Giove, that we called Mini Mandela --how he survived and fooled death many times. Even up to the end here in Italy, some of the veterinarians warned us about him....He never did anyone any harm, not even growled. He has never made any accidents inside their apartment, and with children he has been wonderful. He moved in with Erika and husband Bobby and their two woderful dogs, you can follow Giove's own blog.


Also in the article you can read the message my daughter delivered from Erica's dad, who is on the other side, that gave us "positive" goose bumps.

BENJAMINE IS RECOVERING

Benjamin is a strong, positive, happy dog with a lot of energy. Remember this pictures? (click)

WL had Dr Damiani take a test and send for a biopsy, and we got the result that it was a tumor! The decision was to remove it since it was an open wound that never healed.
Dr Damiani told AWL it was a very big procedure, they had to dig it out!

Our AWL Benjamin is back in the Mattsson-Mercer home recovering, and is happy and playful. He got a new blue collar that goes so well to his grey coat. Our AWL Benji, what a guy!

AWL SWEDEN OFFICE IS NOW OPEN

I am so thankful to have such a great experienced team, and they have sponsored us in Italy many times (upcoming blog).


Ulla helped us getting a fresh AWL hairline, --its tested on humans-- AWL loves this and we already had tried the shampoo on some rescue dogs here in Campania.

AWL is looking forward to work with postive people, straight forward animal lovers who are not afraid. Money for our clinic is already promised, but as always, if you have a special wish were your donations should end, please earmark them.

ABBY AT THE DR DAMIANI CLINIC LAST WEEK

I went with Abby to Dr Damiani's office to have her stiches removed last week before going to Sweden . Abby was (of course) great, very calm but my thought is that she feels the good energies from Dr Damiani.

We looked at her paws and discovered one claw is "upside down" Never seen something like that before. Our wonderful Abby, she is full of suprises!

Her tests went through, her rabies serology report came back and she is ready to get her pass port. --Also her Leishmania test was ok--

In May she can come home to her waiting new warm family in Sweden.

SWEDEN COLD BUT WITH A BIG WARM HEART

Currently I am in Stockholm Sweden to visit the new AWL office with the new big warm wonderful crew. Before leaving Napoli I told the AWL vet that Stockholm doesn't have any strays --and to see my happy daughters face when she saw all the "happy" dogs visiting the wonderful cafe' Himmelska Hundar

AWL Sweden will have their first meeting tonight, a lot of Amore people.
You can see our Tweets here next by the side or why not follow us on Facebook?

TWO BEAUTIFULGIRLS IN DIFFERENT NEEDS

Amore Bella in need of a yard! A wonderful 96lb mastiff named Bella. She is approximately 2yrs old. She is currently living on base, but the base is forcing the owner to find a new home for her. So it is nothing wrong with the dog! (like 97% of the time)

This little sweet puppy was found together with her sibblings in the garbage. For several days no mother was in sight. Bea, a fantastic Italian woman, made sure all 5 got homes, and AWL is helping Abe and Martha's little new friend (above picture) in their house with up-to-date shots and microchip and later steralization.
