Simba, age 8 months. Simba
was taken to Animal Control to be euthanized when he was 6mos old because
his family couldn't control him. Fortunately Great Dane Rescue brought
him to me! |
 |
Bryson was my foster dog for
2mos while he waited for an adoptive family. In spite of having been
abused and neglected he is the sweetest boy. He went home with a great
family. |

Jasmine, Siamese Mix
Another Christmas
import from my mom's ranch. Jasmine has all the beauty of a Siamese and
none of the temperament.

Merlin, Blue Great Dane
Merlin was with me since he was a puppy.
I got him from a breeder in the Austin area. He was a mama's boy.
He passed away in September 2006 at age 13.5! |

Topaz, Harlequin Great Dane
Topaz came to
me from the Southwest Great Dane Rescue Club. She was a champion show
dog who was bred till she couldn't have any more puppies then placed for
adoption. She passed away from breast cancer in February 2007. |

 |
Majiik, Fawn Great Dane
Majiik was the first Dane I
raised from puppyhood and she is responsible for my love of the breed.
She passed away in Spring of 2001 at age 12.5 |
 |
Majiik was always an athlete,
and she loved the rare snow days we enjoyed here on the high desert mesa. |

Bart, Black Great Dane
Bart is the son of Merlin and
Voodoo, my one foray into dog breeding. He belonged to my best friend,
Bob. He passed away in '04 at age 11. |

Sydney, Lemon Borzoi
I bought Sydney at a garage sale!
He'd been badly abused and required a lot of love. He had a lot to
give back in return. He passed away in 2000 |

Voodoo, Black Great Dane
Voodoo was with me from puppyhood. She
passed away in 2002 at age 11. |
Lucy, Irish Wolfhound
I had Lucy from puppyhood. She
died at age 6 from hereditary kidney disease. |
Gus, Irish Wolfhound
Gus came to me from
the Irish Wolfhound Rescue Club. His owner loved him, but she had
terminal cancer and could no longer take care of him. He lived to be
11. |

Harlequin, Barn Cat
Harlequin is hard to
photograph because he always either hunting or asleep on my lap. No
other lap will do! I brought him home from my mom's farm one
Christmas. He passed away in '05. |
 |
Harlequin just had to help us
paint the house... |
 |
Cloud and Taidje Khan
Mother and son, long departed, enjoying the same snow as
Majiik. |
 |
Harlequin's Dinner Guest
This is one of the feral cats that live in my yard. He
is pretty civilized for a wild beast. :) |
|
|
Gypsy, Calico Street Cat
Gypsy was
rescued from the streets by my vet, and I adopted her when Cloud died.
She has never forgotten her cold and hungry homeless life. The heater
grate is her god. |
 |
Rocket, Desert Tortoise
Really, it doesn't have a name. This wild tortoise
showed up in my yard several years ago and has lived with me ever since.
It follows me around just like the dogs and cats, everyone thinks it's funny
to watch. He also chases cats and nips their feet. |
