Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Watkins Glen Pics with new car

Just wanted to let everyone know that we sold out of the decals for the BMW and have now painted one of our Porsches and added bones and paw prints on it. The Porsche has room for 310 names! Alsmost 100 more than the BMW. We had a tough weekend at Watkins Glen and sometimes this happens. If it could go wrong it did. We ran up front some but fell back due to mistakes. Hopefully we got it out of our system. Well, check out the photos on our website and don't forget to tell others about our cause. Give your dogs a hug for me. Regards, Steve p.s. there is a new member of our family, her name is Tila. There is a picture of her at the races on the site (and it's not the one sleeping in the chair). motorsporttechnologygroup.com

Steve, I was looking at the pictures last night. Is that gorgeous white girl with the multi colored eyes Tila? I was wondering on your races is it normal to be under so many cautions? It seems like that has to mess with any strategies your drivers might have at the start of the race. Maybe it is just the "dog days" of summer Ha! Thank you again for what you have undertaken. Penny

Hi I think what you are doing is brilliant! Why doesn't anyone seem to do this in the UK? I may be wrong, if so let me know pleeeease!! I'd love to join in - having lost one dog and now treating another, I want to feel I'm doing something positive to help. Steph

Tila is beautiful (I'm a sucker for the northern breeds). Thanks for all that you are doing.

First of all, thanks. I do this to hopefully change a negative into a positive. I would really like to see this disease cured. It has been busy with so many races within a short time period and that is why I have not been on lately. I wish everyone and their dogs the best of health. Tila is an all white Siberian Husky that we just adopted about 10 days ago. She is just beginning to adjust to her new home, difficult at first to say the least. With some training and teaching who is really the Alpha dog in my house, she will be fine. Cheryl, as soon as we receive your request we will add a bone for Ginger to the new car. Penny, Tila is the bi-colored eyed dog. Husky's can have 2 brown, 2 blue or one of each. Tasha had one of each except they were opposite of Tila's eyes. The race was a disaster with all of the cautions. We always have alternate plans for the race but with so many cautions the luckiest team won. Hopefully next week in Birmingham will be better. Steph, I would contact a team over in the UK and show them what we are doing. Maybe they would like to help out. Any little bit helps. By the way, Audi is the cute setter that is napping in the chair. She is Dr. Daugherty's 9 year old. Dr. Daugherty and/or her husband Dr. Winegardner have come to every race and have helped wherever needed. Dr. Daugherty has really been a help selling all of the shirts, hats and prints at the track. I really owe her a big thanks! How lucky can I be to have found such an incredible person who worked tirelessly to save Tasha and now supports us at the races. And her husband worked until 1am helping me put all the new prints on the Porsche. He also runs around helping with the cars at the races. Boy, are they one impressive couple. Rhonda, I looked at maybe adopting a Mal but just have a soft spot for Huskies. We also added the Wildpaws name to one of the decals on the BMW. Thanks for the donation. I'll update later, Steve
