>Hello Arda. This is Laila. I don't know if you remember me, but my
>husband, Simo, and I adopted the most wonderful dobie, Shaq, from you
>back in 1996. Shaq was a large, fun-loving Doberman with a heart of
>gold. I ran into your website today and just wanted to thank you for
>giving us the opportunity to share so many happy years with Shaq. He was
>a wonderful dog, the best in the world. Unfortunately, he had to be put
>to sleep in June, at the tender age of 10.5 due to bone cancer. He put
>up a valiant fight and we did all we could to keep him comfortable, but
>when it became obvious that his quality of life was deteriorating fast,
>we did the humane thing and let him go. He went to sleep in my arms
>after eating one of his favorite things one last time: tissue paper!
>Shaq was such a gentle soul (in a big body) and he was wonderful with
>our now 14-month old son, Adam.

>When the time comes for us to adopt another dog, we will surely bring
>another rescue dobie into our home. Keep up the good work and happy
>holidays!
