Everybody gets Cancer

For 18 months, Day-Z lived in a 4x6 cage at the dog shelter waiting for someone to love her. Day after day she was ignored, and passed over for Labradoodles and fluffy Malteses, until she was adopted by Hollywood homeowner Mary. She writes: "...Hey Chris, I just wanted to give you a quick update on Day-Z. We recently discovered a small red growth on the inner corner of her eye. After taking Day-Z to an animal eye specialist in Sherman Oaks we found out that she has eye cancer caused by UV rays from the sun. The good news is that we caught it very early and it is treatable. She's had one surgery and she has one more to go. In the meantime, I decided to protect her eyes from UV rays with these doggy goggles."

Oh poor baby!! I hope she doesn't mind the goggles - I bet they help a lot. And hopefully her eye will be fixed in no time! :)

chris, just read about you, and think you indeed are cute, in a sardonic sort of way, to borrow an adjective. don't know which way your door swings, but mine swings to the left, so to speak. for detailsm the l.a. times is publishing a letter i wrote to them in tomorrow's sunday paper (1/25). i appreciate you keeping your volunteer work private, and would like to get to knwo what else you keep private. some of your photos are scarily slick, but though i don't have a zoom option on this computer at the library, i have a feeling your tongue is somewhere in your cheek. if any of this works , and you'd like to go out, please contact me at my e-mail. and no need to post this on your site. i love anonymity.

Um, the comment by buck winston sounds slightly neurotic...

[POOP]

wow buck winston, i think YOU are scarily slick. let us know how your date with chris goes. you sound like a catch.

My dog Eddie had the same problem years ago, we also caught it early on and he's ok now.

As for winston's comment...I don't think you're chris's type Bucky, you sound like a creeper.

I can't believe Day-Z was left so long--she's SO BEAUTIFUL. I'd take her over a Labradoodle or a Maltese any day of the week!

Sorry to hear about the cancer, but boy can she rock those goggles. Nice.

[Kratz]

Nice, Chris. Now you have the gay bears hitting on you via comments. And writing about you in papers. May I suggest hiring private security?

Is that an Australian Flag around her neck? Sure lookslike it... Very appropriate since it's Australia Day tomorrow (26th)
