Hello everyone, thank you to those who have been so generous in donating money to the "Sunshade and Elaine" Fund. As of this post, $300 has been contributed. My dad has asked Sue, Molly and Mitch's mom to help administer the PayPal account that receives the donations. My dad has given Sue full access to the account so that all matters relating to the receipt and eventual disbursement of the funds is "fully above board" and that two people (my dad and Sue) are able to account for each and every penny donated and that will eventually be disbursed to Elaine. Please let me know or Sue know if you have any questions regarding the fund.
Here's a picture of me and Sunshade doing a "meet and greet" at a pool that we both used to swim at. Ah...okay, ladies first :)
Oh hot dog :)
Thank you to all. We'll keep collecting donations for the next while. I promise to provide regular updates on the grand total raised.

Request for help. Some of you may know Sunshade and her mom Elaine (http://www.sunshadethesuperdale.com/) Sunshade has not been well because she came down with a mysterious ailment late last Friday evening/Saturday morning and Sunshade was taken to Seattle Veterinary Specialists in Kirkland, WA by her mom. The Seattle clinic thought that Sunshade was suffering from gastroentritis but her usual vet is currently investigating the possibility that it may be something related to Cushings or Addisons. To date, Sunshade's condition has improved after many IVs and antibiotics. Her bloody diarrhea has finally stopped although she still has periodic episodes of vomiting. The Seattle vet bill of $2500 plus further vet bills for aftercare and treatment back at her usual clinic in Canada have stretched things a bit so I thought that it might be a good idea to stage a bit of a fundraiser to share some of the burden. However, please don't feel obligated, your good thoughts will also be gratefully received, welcomed and forwarded to Elaine and Sunshade. However, if you can manage, a donation would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Sammy.

I feel really sick.
Sunshade has a "pee pad" to catch the discharge.
Taking over mom's bed. The pee pad came along too.
If you'd like to leave a comment, please leave it on my blog and I'll send them to Elaine. If you're able to make a donation, , please carefully copy and paste into your browser. This will take you to PayPal. Thank you.
I was at my usual monthly acupuncture treatment with my doctor Janice and she's got all these needles in me and wriggling them around and all of a sudden, my tail starts wagging. Not once or twice but wagging just like I used to, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. My dad's looking at Janice with his mouth open and Janice asks, "has he done that before?" My dad says no, not like that since his injury back in 2010. Anyways, I kept wagging my tail, stopped, then started up again. Janice was so excited that she ran out to tell her tech "Kate", who came into the room and watched me wag my tail. Janice went out to the parking lot to see if she could spot my mom. Janice comes back into the exam room and my dad finally gets out his camera and starts to film and guess what? I stopped wagging my tail. Ha, ha dad. Anyways my dad did get some video of my tail sticking out but no wagging. Duh dad.
