I will be pulling Tari from the shelter first thing in the morning. Karen and
I will work out a place for him to stay for the next few days. Dawn was
awesome this morning when I contacted her. She called me back within a few
minutes of getting my e-mail. I hope someone can offer this boy a place to
live out his days. I owned his brother Ch. Draco UD and if I had a place here
he would never leave my house. Karen has been in and out of the emergency room
for the last week or he would have a home with her. Sometimes breeders cannot
step up. Not that they don't want to in the worst way.
