My favorite breed of dog


If you didn't know, these are Irish Wolfhounds. Torre, on the left, weighs 146lbs. Uri weighs 158. Yeah. Big shaggy dogs. I love them.

Torre is a lucky girl. When she was younger she had stomach bloat, and I saw her on emergency. Got her taken care of, but she bloated and twisted again the same night. April, one of the technicians at the Hannibal office, and I spent pretty much all night with her, doing surgery and staying with her after to make sure she recovered ok. A lot of dogs don't recover, especially if the owner doesn't notice right away, and the twist is bad. So it was really great to see her again.
