Lady was our second Weim rescue. She was on death row at the Denver Dumb Friends League because she could jump 6 foot fences. We had a large fenced and roofed kennel in our back yard and we were looking for a female Weim to replace our beloved Helga. Lady suffered from separation anxiety and would jump fences to go look for her people. When we adopted her in August 1998 she was a year old. She was malnourished, her front legs had permanently skewed out elbows. She was a very active, yet loving dog. She was never far from our side. We thought we lost her in May of 2009 when she fell and had minimal use of her back legs. With acupuncture and “Lorenzo’s Oil” (God Bless Dr. Guerney in Aspen Park) she recovered somewhat and bravely carried on until late December when nothing seemed to work and she couldn't move and refused to eat. It was time for her to go over the Rainbow Bridge where she will join the pack of our other beloved Weims (Fritz, Helga, Gunther, Blue 1, and Boo-Boo (Blue 2)). With aching hearts we knew that only another Weim could fill, we recently adopted “Penny” (formerly Praer) from the rescue. She has quickly filled the void left by Lady and has lightened our hearts. Thank you Mile High Weimaraner Rescue for all you do.
