Age Diagnosed w/Addison's: 1 1/2 years old
Comments: I have always called Racey my "No Fear" baby. She charges headstrong into any situation without worrying about the consequences. She is not hyper... just sure. Her life revolves around me (her mother), and a tennis ball. Show her a tennis ball and you are committed to throwing it as long as you can hang in there. She would retrieve 24 hours a day if she could. her best friend is Shadow, also a standard poodle. I have the best of both worlds with my girls! Racey is my protector and retriever. Shadow is my clown and hunter (she treed a squirrel for 2 hours during blinding rain)!

Comments: Donny is one of the sweetest, most gentle dogs I've ever known. I'm glad he's feeling better and is getting back to his "old self." I'm also grateful to everyone on the list for all of their information and support.

Comments: Kaylee's owners turned her over to rescue because of the cost of her treatment. She is a sweet little girl who acts like a normal basset. Her foster parents fell in love with her and she now has a permanent home with them!

Comments: Amber is the sweetest dog in the world. She follows me all around the house. She likes everyone and loves to give kisses. She has had a rough time since she became ill on 12/28/99. At that time she shook severely and could hardly stand or keep her eyes open. After her diagnosis of Addison's on 12/31/99 she slowly improved with medication, although she still struggles to stay well, having good days and bad days. She is a wonderful, special dog. I love her and she is my best friend.
