It was a heartbreaking yet joyful day filled with emotion as Kameo's litter arrived. Live pups born then still borns and so many questions. Why? What is wrong? As I held my stillborns I could not help but question why I would continue to breed knowing the risks and pain. However, this is also the week that I was informed that Kameo's brother Comet has passed the testing and has been identified as a dog capable of detecting cancer. He works and trains several days a week identifying lung cancer. What a noble task this dog has and it was because I do what I do and so many wonderful families have my dogs and pursue such things that I will continue...even when some days are so very, very difficult.
