A Letter From Lucky's Owners:

July 2002

This note has been somewhat delayed - sorry. We rescued Lucky from your organization in April 2001. Enclosed is a recent photo of this loving and sweet dog. I (we) are completely bonded to him and adore him. After we lost both of our original Westies, within two months of each other, Lucky was there to comfort me (us).

Lucky unfortunately has a serious lung problem. He went to UC Davis ICU last July for breathing problems. After more than $3,000, we and the respiratory Vets still don't know what exactly is wrong with Lucky. He is on chronic antibiotics to hold infections at bay. There were hints of this problem in his medical records from his old owners, but it was never pursued. Regardless, he is a blessing us every day, loves his squeaky ball and gets comments every day on what a good and sweet dog he is. He loves to play and sleeps on our bed. Please know we will go to the 'ends of the earth' for this dog's medical health. That would never be given a second thought. He truly is a treasure in our lives.

Thank you so much for your work with the Westie's, they are such wonderful and neat creatures.
