Update on Calendar Orders, I am still trying to figure out this FedEx thing, it is taking longer then expected. I now need to get a special printer. So for the first batch they might go USPS (yuck!) if I cannot figure it out by tomorrow. Sorry for the delay!!

Please welcome our new little pup to the rescue. She will be flying in to Nome hopefully tomorrow and direct from Nome to Fairbanks via Alaska Airlines. She has a possible broken leg. Once she is secured in Nome, I'll post an update.

Pacino was an excellent boy as always at the vet today. He has some new medication and we'll see how things look in a couple of weeks. I'm also going to switch brands of his supplements and see if that can get him into a remission.
Thanks for all your prayers and support. Pacino is such a special special boy❤️

Mr Pacino and I are heading to the vet this afternoon. Thank you so very much Dr Cole for getting us in so quickly! Back in February of this year Pacino was diagnosed with Symmetrical lupoid onychodystrophy (SLO) it is a painful, uncommon autoimmune disease that affects a dog's toenails. Pacino, unfortunately, has yet to be in remission. While all of his nails came off very quickly in the beginning, the nails grew back but not normally. Now, even those nails fall off, but just one at a time. However, now he has a swollen toe with a nail that recently came off. Every time a nail comes off, it exposes the quick. It's a horrible, horrible disease. Below is more about it.
Symptoms
Dogs with SLO may lick their paws frequently, avoid physical activity, and have trouble walking. The disease usually starts with one or two claws becoming brittle, breaking, or falling out. Within a few weeks, all four paws are affected. Regrowing claws may be deformed, split, or fall out again.
Causes
The exact cause of SLO is unknown, but it's likely triggered by an overactive immune system. It may also be genetic, and is more common in certain breeds, such as German Shepherds, Gordon Setters, and Rottweilers.
Treatment
A combination of antibiotics and essential fatty acids (EFAs) is the most common treatment. Niacinamide (vitamin B3) may also be given. Once the disease is under control, flare-ups are uncommon and medications can be reduced.
Prognosis
SLO is not curable, but most dogs tolerate treatment well. However, nails typically never return to normal and may grow back in unusual shapes.

2025 Calendars are in!! Wall calendars are a little more expensive this year at $30 BUT they are made in America and have the spiral top. If you are local please email me to order so I do not get charged the store and paypal fee and we can meet up for delivery. 4x6 magnetic calendars are $5.50
This year's calendar include a couple of photos of Traveller wearing his famous hats, Mr Jackson and Baby ( I can do it myself) Ramiel on the cover, Thor and his biological sister are on the last page, and lots of Miss Smiley aka Haboob.
The link to the store is https://agsr.bigcartel.com/ I am trying something new this year and that is to use FedEx for out of town (USA only) orders. It may take me a couple of days to work everything out.
If you do not want to shop through the store or have trouble please email me and we can make other arrangements
100% of the proceeds go to the dogs! Thank you all for your support!

Mom with her 3 puppies, and not 3 as we were expecting, but 2 additional puppies are getting ready to fly out of Nome and into Anchorage.
So many good folks make these saves happen, from the volunteers in the village, to Emily with PAWS of Nome, to the Northern Air Cargo crew, to the fosters picking them up, and to everyone of the rescue's supporter who help keep the doors open. Thank you all for your dedication to help save lives❤️
I'll update again later this afternoon.

Only one of the moms was surrendered with her 3 puppies. But there were 3 additional puppies who needed help, so we took those in. The darker color mom posted a few days ago with her 3 puppies and no dog house are still out there💔
I am thankful to be able to help these little souls. They are flying into Nome this afternoon and hopefully will be landing in Anchorage tomorrow. I'll post again when I have another update.

When is it Friday afternoon and you try sneaking out of the office early but your Snoopervisors are watching you 🤣

Just before the wind and snow picked up this morning, guess who found one of her toys. I was hoping it was gone forever 🤣🙄🤣

So there's 3 types of people with this kind of snow, rain, more rain, more snow, and more rain again kind of weather. We have Pacino and Poppy who think it's absolutely awesome. We have Haboob who thought it was awesome for the first 30 minutes and then we have Quills. No, Quills is not in the video because she is smart, dry, and napping on the couch 🤣

Yes, Pacino it's snowing again!! Christmas is one day closer lol

Well Miss Poppy, if you would stop barking at him, he'd be quiet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you Cathy for the awesome entertainment!!!

Morning traffic was mixed with a lot of excitement with our first snow day of the season ❤️❄️❄️❤️

Zion and his squeaky toy. He still struggles with meeting people and being friendly, but then so do I 🤣🤣

Feeling a little dizzy watching the morning traffic on my commute to the office. 🤣

But Poppy it's nap time 🤣🤣🤣

So many muddy muddy dogs with all this rain! But Poppy is enjoying it, she is enjoying it sooooooooOOOooooo much! So lucky her, it's another flipping rainy day 😒🤣🌧🌧🤣😒

Rainy Morning Shenanigans 🤣

Let the daily shenanigans begin ❤️🐾🐾❤️
