I just wanted to do a little introduction about my hobby that has become my life. I have always loved animals. I grew up riding horses and brought home anything with legs that needed a home. Later, I found that my particular affinity was for terrier type dogs. I rescued my first West Highland White terrier in 2000. I named her Lily Grace because she had no grace and was what I referred to as my tiger lily. She was the the worst kind of perfect. She had tons of personality but respected nothing or no one, even me. She bite me for the first week. When I had enough, I bit her in return right on the nose. From that moment on we saw eye to eye. She became the love of my life. My four legged child. Since then I have rescued more terriers than I can even count. Some were like Lily others not. Some, I found on the roadside. Others were "thrown away" for one reason or another. I would rehabilitate these critters and find them new homes. Only the most terrible, like my tiger lily, remained with me. Somehow, the ones with the most issues always still my heart.
