Size matter
I spoke to my friend and volunteer how difficult it can be to see the dogs real size in a picture. Penny is up for adoption and on every picture she looks big.
I told my friend to put something next to her like a shoe and we could see that she is small!

TO ALL SENIORS THAT ARE OUT THERE
CELEBRATE SENIOR MONTH
My heart is nearly bursting out
when I read this story and look at the pictures. This woman Kat is one of the
volunteers at AWL and I am telling you all, she is an amazing woman. I get so
inspired by her and her love for animals. Our hat off for you Kat--and parents.
Here is her story about her
beloved dog Tippy.
"This is Tippy.
I adopted
her from a local shelter in East Tennessee the summer of 2011. I first met her
at an adoption event I was running for the company I worked for at the time.
One of the volunteers was walking her. I reached down to scratch under her chin
and she licked my hand.
I was completely in love.
I called the shelter to ask about
adopting her and was told that I didn't even have to pay the adoption fee.
They
were simply happy that someone was interested in her.
I found out that she had been in
the shelter for over six months due to her age and medical needs. Tippy had
conjunctivitis in her right eye. It was cloudy and twice the size of the other
and had to be removed as soon as possible.
She was also an estimated 10
years old.
Shortly after having her right
eye removed it was found out she had conjunctivitis in her other eye, as well.
The eyes had to be removed when they began to swell because they were causing
her immense pain.
Tippy was a fighter throughout
the entire process. It did not even stop her from jumping on and off the couch
and finding her way around the house. She even still played tug of war with my
Shepherd.
A feat in and of itself as she is
12lbs and he is 95lbs.
Rocky, my Shepherd, has always
been very protective and patient with Tippy. Nothing slows her down. Not even
walks with the large dogs out at my parents house. She does perfectly fine
getting around the house as long as you don't rearrange the furniture.
She is one of the most precious
dogs I have ever had the joy of coming into contact with. Tippy has yet to meet
anyone that doesn't immediately fall in love with her.
She's a fighter and a lesson to
all that senior pets, even those with disabilities, are such an incredible
addition to the family."

OUR NEW MINI HOSPICE DREAM IS COMING TRUE
I have known this "surprise" for quiet some time.
Actually already since last year. Spring is coming and we are ready to build.
Our wonderful AWL sponsor Craig Kleber have been one of AWL's
longest and generous sponsor.
Last year he stepped in and told us he wanted to donate 2500 euro
so AWL could build their mini Hospice.
We are forever so grateful for everything that Craig does for AWL Animals.
The donation are made in Craigs father' name Louis "Chuck" Kleber and the
little Hospice house be named "Casa Valeria" after his mother,
an animal lover and her parents were also from Naples
That's Amore.//Mia
We will start building one, and it will be in big garden area close to another
house so the sick dog can be monitored 100%
Thank you Craig your heart for animals is HUGE heart emoticon

The picture of the Month
Cher was locked together with her dog husband in a cage for over 10 years.
AWL took both to Hospice with open rooms and garden. It was a joy to see them.
Sunny, her husband became ill and Cher stayed by his side until he left us.
Many was worried about Cher but she moved on with the same wonderful heart.
We found her a wonderful home were she can continue ing glowing.
That's Amore!
