Mahi and Lover |
Update (August 2004) Mahi and I have been doing
a lot of volunteer work for Rescue organizations in our area. Mahi
comes with me on “home visits” along with his best friend,
a Doberman named Lover. Mahi is introduced as an example of how great
of a dog you can get from a Rescue Organization. Recently IL Doberman
Rescue had a reunion of all the dogs they have adopted out in the
last year. At the reunion party there was a photographer. Mahi had
his picture taken with is best friend, “Lover”. |

Update (April 2004): Mahi's family
writes, "He has run of the house now. He chases the cats constantly,
but when he catches them he doesn't know what to do with them..he
just slobbers on them. He runs like the wind! He is so powerful and
well muscled. it is something to see when he is full-out running.
I am training for a marathon and Mahi is training with me, but I
run much too slow for him. He loves to chase the geese into the river,
but again, when he catches them he doesn't do anything. He goes to
daycare on Tuesdays and Thursdays. His daycare mom says he never
stops playing." |

Here is a picture of Mahi just before his first real swim. |
UPDATE (October 2003): Mahina's
owner writes: "It turns out he loves the water. I have to
keep him out of it most of the time so I don't have to give him
a bath every day!"

September 2003 right on my way to work... Mahi has not been crated. He doesn't
chew anything but his toys..." |
UPDATE (September 2003): Mahina's owner writes: "He
really is the best dog. So easy-going. I take him on my runs now
that the weather has cooled off a bit. He runs at my side and does
not chase bikers, roller bladers or other runners on the path. I
found a wonderful daycare for him |
August 2003
Unfortunately, being white, the mud gets all over him and then he has to get
a bath. |
UPDATE (August 2003): Mahina's owner writes: ...the
kids in the neighborhood came over to meet him. He just loves kids.
One of the kids was only about 2 years old. Mahi seemed to know that
he needed to be gentle with him and not knock him over. He loves
the water and, if I let him, he will jump right in the river. Unfortunately,
being white, the mud gets all over him and then he has to get a bath. |
