Paris Spiritus, April 2000
His first day home...
It was love
at first sight. Paris is shiny black with longs legs like a horse. His second name,
Spiritus, came as we were packing to bring him home to Charlotte. It means breathe...Paris
is a rescue dog...he rescued us and breathed life into an empty place in our
hearts.

Paris, January 2000
On December 21, 2000
at 11 pm, Paris sat in the yard and howled for about an hour...he has
never done that before or since. Four days later we received a call that
his sister, Mary, had her first litter beginning at about 11pm that same
night.
We three decided to bring one of Mary's daughters into our family.

Gabrielle Huntress

Gabrielle, Huntress is two December 2002.
Paris loves his whole family: he has gained some muscle and his coat is
glorious.
While "rescue" is part of his life, he has stabilized beautifully.
Both attend Maggie's classes and benefit from the writings of Patricia
McConnell, Ph.D.
Thanks to her we learned that a multi-dog household can be polite and ever so
much fun!
We recommend her latest book: "The Other End of The Leash."
