GOLDEN RETRIEVER RESCUE IN NEBRASKA

I recently was able to help with a medical case involving a sweet dog from Golden Retriever Rescue in Nebraska.

A few days later, I saw a dog from the same group for wellness care.

In my overly optimistic, often but not always securely grounded in reality mind, this is a start of an avalanche of Golden opportunities! Soon it will be Beagle-Basset-Husky-Golden repeat forever! I am so happy.

My interactions with Golden Retriever Rescue in Nebraska (GRRIN) before this have involved strong emotional support for the group. When a member of their team owned Spirit World, what did I do? I went and bought a sandwich and drank wine there with Dad. When GRRIN was at a rescue gathering I was at, I bravely stepped forward to pet their dogs behind the ears.

So far, becoming more involved in supporting this amazing group in a professional capacity has been AS REWARDING as all of my involvement thus far.

Drink in honor of rescue groups. Eat sandwiches. Pet dogs and cats. And if these Pet Savers need a foster home, an adoptive home, financial support, blog posts written, a rally attended, a new team member...we as a community will be there then too.

We love you Omaha Pet Savers!

THE KURTENBACH SERIES, PART 1 - MARCEL

We have a great client, Dan Kurtenbach, with a wonderful service dog, a Golden Retriever named Marcel.

Marcel - The large pictures are in dog-cat vision, and the smaller insets in the original full color.

We love seeing these two for medical care and grooming.

In a surprising turn of events, we have recently been reminded that our clients and patients have lives outside of the exam rooms! Who knew?? Well...even if you do not tell us your stories...may we never forget...

You all are amazing and intriguing, and it is an honor to get to know you AND your pets.

The next several days will be stories and pictures from Dan, first about his sweet service dog Marcel, because without Marcel we would not have met, and from there stories of Dan and his life and previous dogs he has known and loved. I hope you enjoy getting to know them all as much as I have.

Although most pictures on the blog are in dog-cat vision, I have also included full color pictures for the entire Kurtenbach series...mostly because I could not bear to take the coming flower pictures completely out of full color!

From Dan, "Marcel is a very happy dog in spite of his trials and we bond a bit more every day. He continues to be a delightful roommate."

Marcel being silly - even working dogs need down time!
