Callie (in back) and Roscoe (you see his butt) inspect the new arrival. (Dec. 23, 2000)

Night 1: Tahssy is settling in after we had to capture her and carry her inside. She had never been inside a building.

Night 2: Tahssy is in George's lap getting a belly rub.

Tahssy on January 5, 2001 in her chosen spot, by the kitchen. She loves to be in the house day in and day out

A very muddy Tahssy on April 7, 2002. The shy, reserved little girl has turned into a happy and friendly, independent dog who deals with her semi-blindness remarkably.
(The bright spots in her eyes are her cataracts)

Tahssy Update October 21, 2001
She has turned into a true Husky. Loves to escape and go "walk-about." She lost her site partially in May when she developed cataracts in both eyes, but that has not stopped her.

Tahssy walks around with a perpetual smile (top right picture). Every gesture she makes towards us seems to say "Thank You, I am so happy!" She is very loving, independent, head strong and sweet. Okay, so she's a thief - we've learned to put up everything that's dear to us... shoes especially!

Every night when she crawls under my bed and sticks out her head (Like a horse in a stall), she says good night by licking my hand profusely, and every night I say out loud "Thank God for bringing Tahssy to us." And I mean it. She's our Christmas Angel.

Tahssy Update March 13, 2004
Tahssy seems to be mostly blind now. There is still some light difference obvious, but she spooks in new surroundings and has to have all rugs laying in the same spot all the time. If they are moved, or I take them out to clean, she spooks and seems disoriented.
