own guide dogs and am currently working on number 5 now. Lily, a white
Siberian Husky was my first. Nala,a black, grey and white Siberian husky,
number 2 and Shaman, a fawn Belgian Shepherd,number 3 and Neechee, a black
and white Siberian Husky, my current guide. Sedona, a Dutch Shepherd will
be number 5.I have been raising and training her since I got her at 9
weeks. She will be a year old in September.  I also work with the Siberian
Husky Rescue here in Tucson and foster and put some training on them to
help get them adopted. I also rescue Bearded Dragon Lizards. Oh, and I just
turned 70 this month. I hope you enjoy the list as much as I do. Have a
great day.    Mardi and Shaman,semi-retired and Neechee,GD and Sedona,GDIT.
