Akira and Meko: family bonding






Yesterday's post about Coco, from Hong Kong, reminded me that I still hadn't shared the family pictures of Akira and Meko!  Their mom Jenna has done a stellar job taking pictures of them together, and it's about time I shared them, don't you think?



Jenna brought these two into her life when many others may have passed on them. If you haven't read their stories yet you really need to!



 Now, not only do they have Jenna to take care of them, but they also have each other!


Jenna indulges these sweeties whenever she can, like giving them their own special coats!


And they pay her back with unconditional love and good behavior in public.


 They make the most of their lives with Jenna, including rainy day naps as pictured below.  I love Meko's position! BOL. (Bark out loud.)




As we have commented in the past, most people who rescue will tell you the animals are grateful. They know. I don't know how they know but they do. They know who gave them a second (or third or fourth) chance, and they will always pay their owners back a million times over. Jenna and her girls are great ambassadors for rescue, and we thank Jenna for sharing their stories. Let's hope she keeps the pictures coming and we can get some updates from time to time!




I also want to add:  Happy Birthday to the woman who taught me everything I know about how to treat animals! Love ya Mom.




Have you submitted your pictures yet for the Photo Share? No?  WHY NOT?  Get out there and get a picture of your pet with something in its mouth. Email me at pabibliophile@gmail.com.

Akira


 This is Akira, a Great Dane/Bull Arab mix.  She lives with Jenna . . . guess where? 




 In the Land Down Under. . . Australia!




 Isn't the internet an amazing tool for bringing like-minded people together?


 
 Look at Akira's puppy picture above.  Is it any wonder Jenna fell in love with her and rescued her from the RSPCA in Australia when she was just 8 weeks old? And now she is a great big lovable and loving "mega sook." Those are Jenna's words to describe her. She says she would go without food and water if it meant getting love and attention. Below she is in her typical position, right next to Mom.



 Akira has a sister, Meko, and believe me we will get to her later, but Jenna tells us they both love car rides, camping, and going to the beach.



 Akira is now 3 1/2 years old and living the good life with her furever family. Can you imagine trying to tell that face, below, that she can't have what she wants?



The next time we talk about Jenna's house, we will get to Meko. She's a whole other animal, just like any of our own pets and the way we know their personalities vary so much.


Do you have a rescue story to share? We would love to feature your pet. Plus, don't forget we are still taking submissions for the Great Outdoors photo share.  All pets are welcome, even if they aren't rescue pets. The only criteria is that they are enjoying something outside.  Email me at pabibliophile@gmail.com
