| On December 24th two "German Shepherd" puppies became available for adoption at Maricopa County's East shelter. Many people came to adopt them. The Universe conspired, someone got lucky. |
 |
| Aunty Julie has kept an eye on the puppies while they were in the shelter. Liam at 8 weeks. |
 |
| Brother and sister. |
 |
| Post-neuter and the ride home. |
 |
| I honestly had no intention of keeping Liam. My intention was to give him a good start and send him on his way. After letting my big Boca bear go, I didn't think I was in a good place to adopt another. |
 |
| I haven't had a puppy this young in my care for many years, puppies are a 24/7 affair. |
 |
| There are some coincidences about young Liam that I couldn't ignore. Liam's birthday is on a very special day. |
 |
| I can't pinpoint the defining moment I knew Liam had to stay. I knew that I wanted to give Liam the chance to be the very best Malinois he can be. In my search for opportunities for a working dog in Southern Arizona, I found SARCI. I've long had an interest in Search & Rescue work. Some pro's for me: I'm already a licensed ham radio operator, while working with helicopters I've had some exposure to high altitude rescues, and I like to hike. I'll attend my first SRDI meeting in January. Liam is a bright boy, I'm excited to see how a future as a SAR dog looks for Liam. |
 |
| Liam at 12 weeks. Welcome to the pack Liam. |
