NEW HOMEPAGE

I have together with talented Linda, worked on a new homepage where I can put my own, and my organisation AWL together.

Time is one of the things we are hunting after desperately, so I thought adding them together would make it  all in one place. Easy to find!

Let me know what you think!

LEAH THE WARRIOR QUEEN

Update on Leah after her surgery . The veterinarian team made the op and  got the fast growing tumour on her inner back legs away. (earlier post)

Amazing warrior Queen greeted me at the veterinarian door only a couple of hours after waking up. Think if we humans had the same capacity !
I want to show you how she looked like when I found her and after some time together with us. What an amazing difference. She has so much energy for being an senior, I hope I get the same kind of amount when I become a Senior ;-)
Leah, I am super proud over you.

Street Dogs and People Heal their Inner Anger in Different Ways





The insecurity inside of us can make it difficult to balance a direct communication with balanced feelings. Often it is our own egos that put a stop to the unconditional love for ourselves and others. When we understand that it is ourselves that we have to love without criticizing, the fears that pierce our hearts will disappear.
We are created by the Universe and are perfect.
Once again, I read from my notebook. How could a dog be that spiritual deeper than myself, a human?
Immediately I was ashamed over my own thought. Who was I to judge or condemn?
The wise street dog that sat beside me would not be owned by anyone.
His eyes were glittering humbly, and still I was ashamed even more by my previous notion of superiority.
I realized that although his freedom would be short on the streets, he was ok with it. For him the freedom was not to be on anyone's "leash" and moreover, freedom had no sense of time.
Once more, I felt shame over my own faith experiences. The more people (and street dogs) I encounter, I come to realize that it is about how I reacte to other people and animals. It shows who I really am.
There are no suicides among stray dogs.
When you have love for yourselves and for all, no one will be able to destroy you. We stray dogs give each other respect, and respect where we are in our own development.
We see you as lovable people. Your attitude to us animals shows where you are on life's path. When you stop receiving lessons you will be hard-hearted and dare no longer to love anymore. You become judgmental people. An aggressive dog has not been badly treated by life in itself, but by man within that life. An aggressive street dog also knows that it is difficult to survive with aggression, and walks away to be alone and heal itself. While an aggressive man is not only attacking himself, but the entire Universe, the Earth, man and Animals.
Love the Universe with all your heart, mind, and strength. Then you can love your neighbor as yourself. We all come from the same source.
That's Amore!

HAPPY 2017

NEW YEARS eve, is not one of my favourite evenings to celebrate.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to celebrate to say good bye to the year of 2016 lessons, and welcome the new year 2017 in, gladly with a glass of Champagne.

The fireworks are making it very hard to be happy and celebrate.

Today is our home back to normal, but it has been tough days, and evenings.

The house of 12 dogs, there have been chaos, with barking, howling and shaking.

It is not only by midnight, it is several days before and several days after.

I am thinking of the wild animals, and also Military with PTSD, well.....all people with PTSD. I cannot imagine what is going on in their minds.

One year, I celebrated New Year in Switzerland. At Midnight all the churches started to play with their churchbells, no fireworks. It was magic very soothing for the mind and soul.

Earlier today I saw in the Swedish newspaper, that many people became absurd with handling the firework, hurting other people, children and even making false 911 calls, only to throw fire work at the ambulance people when they arrived.

May we come to a Solution for next New Years Eve-2018, lets post solutions and not harsh words.

                       Happy New Year all Animal Lovers, lets become better this year 2017.


That's Amore!

SENIOR SANCTUARY IS ON THE HEALTH PATH

The days are flying so fast away, and its been busy here at the Senior Sanctuary ( ChaCha wouldn't like to be called a Senior yet!)

I am so thankful to our veterinarian, Frau Kast and her team at the Tier Artz. Our Italian clients are being taken cared of with a lot care and love.
Leah is healing wonderful after her tumor surgery last week. And I am so happy we took the chance to put her under surgery despite her age. Leah was examined before the surgery, and she got a very strong heart. If we wouldn't have done the surgery, she would probably have had a couple of months to live.

We look at the client, the value of the dogs life, but we never take away an animal because we are afraid.
The blood test from ChaCha came back. I decided for a BIG blood analyse to take away many things that were possible for her to have.


She gained weight without eating much, so veterinarian Frau Kast suspected it could be the thyroid that was not working properly. And she was right!

Now Cha Cha is on medication, and after one month we have to take a new bloodtest to see how she is responding to her new medicine.

I had had the feeling that something wasn't ok with ChaCha, on the outside she looked fine, but I got the "mother feeling" And I was right!

Wonderful team work and amazing results when we all listen to each other.

That's Amore!

A BUSY DAY AT THE SENIOR SANCTUARY


My beloved Leah got a nasty aggressive tumor on her inside of her leg. In a short time it grew and opened up.
Our veterinarian examined her and despite her older age we decided to have it removed. Its uncomfortable for her now and it will probably be painful for her in a while. While she is sedated they will check her with ultra sound.

Leah got a very strong heart and a fabulous personality! 

Our Senior three legged Angelo got a horrible infection in his nose. Antibiotic and painkiller for him.







The lady ChaCha had to go to the veterinarian too, for a lot of different blood tests. I know something is not correct inside of her. Also, our veterinarian told us she need to lose weight. 56kg!!!

We don't know how we are going to do that!!! She is on 2 small cups of dry food every day, and she got her own personal trainer (walker) Hm! Maybe I need to follow them during their walks to see if they really are walking and not by a fast food restaurant!
