Hey! That's me.

CANASTOTA --
Claudette Giroux needs her service dog, Delilah, to help her get through the day.

"I can't survive a day without her,” she said as she walked around Wanderer’s Rest Animal Shelter in Canastota.

To make sure Delilah can find her way home if she gets lost, Giroux had a microchip implanted on Delilah that shelters and vets can use to find her information. She knows there are a lot of animals at Wanderer's Rest that are still hoping their owner can find them.

"They have very pretty collars on so obviously there's somebody that took care and loved them but they don't know who they belong to,” said Giroux.

Unfortunately, many shelters and vets have discovered that even when they find a microchip, it isn't always a sure bet for being able to reunite a lost animal with its family.

"When you get your animal microchipped, or a shelter does it, you get a packet where you fill out your name and your number on there and you're supposed to send it to the company,” said Denise Adams from Wanderer’s Rest. “A lot of people end up not doing it so what happens is there's a number but no information we can follow up with."

The American Veterinary Medical Association recently published a study saying 40% of microchipped animals were not registered in any database.

Another problem can come up when people move. If the pet’s information isn’t updated, the microchip is nearly useless.

At Wanderer's Rest, they say it's frustrating to know that some pets have a loving home, but they can't find it. The shelter staff hopes to improve things and now makes sure the registration paperwork is filled out for all animals adopted from the shelter. Several area vets, including the Stack Animal Hospital, also make sure the information is registered.

Has been one of those days. You know, *those* days. Emotions going everywhere being the weather decides your body is just it's little barometer anyhow so lets just @5&*) it. There is not much that can be done for it but grin bear it and move on, nothing to see here. Voices say; die. I say don't really care either way.

When things are not ... oh well, you cease to exist. But that is good too. Because in that light, the light that comes from the storms of our lives, truth is shown.

Feeling like Queen bitch of Bitchdom

Filed a police report last night agianst the asst. manager of a local store that was trying to deny Delilah access. Months ago she had and her boss had banned us because Delilah barked in the store. I was unreasposive, And my girl turned to the first person who she saw, and asked for help as only a dog can..... woof. Unforntunatly; human was afraid of dogs and assumed Delilah was aggressive. (of course because if you're afraid,all barks are aggressive ) Instead of sending someone to see if I was alright I was just watched like a freak. While checking out And still reeling from my episode earlier there was three or four children that were just being just very loud and unruly. Delilah let out a sigh. * A sigh * that is all. She did not bark. She did not growl. The "Mother" though complained to management and said that my girl DID growl. I explained that she was my service animal and that under the ADA I was protected. They said they did not care. I was not welcome there any more. Do not comeback with her again. That they had to protect their business and customers. They also said that Delilah peed all over their store Yea right. This was months ago. I know I shouldn't have have pushed it. Or maybe i should have. Either way . ....

Last night, I had a dentist appointment across the street and stopped in to use the bathroom.

I know my girl did no wrong. I know that under the law if she were aggressive to someone This would be a much different post. Full of sadness that she blew her training. Sad that I did not do a good job teaching her and myself ....

Anyways; back to last night. As I left the bathroom I went past the magazine section of the store and took a knee down on the the floor, as i was getting up I was using Delilah as a brace. Delilah only weighs 90 pounds to my 150. Asst. Manager saw us and followed us straight to the front door. " I see see is still having a problem."
No she is not.
"Well she flinched when I came up behind you- didn't I tell you, you are not welcome here.?"
She did not Flinch because of YOU, But because of my weight. Thanks.
But I will leave.
"Don't come back"
Oh don't worry, I'll be contacting the Police department.

So I went to The DeWitt Police Department, They sent a very nice officer over who met us took one look at Delilah and was like you kidding me right?!
Vicious huh? :/
He said let's go take care of this right now. I told him that I feel like I am making a mountain out of a molehill. He said that it is his job to sometime educate the stupid. That she said I could not be there . That I do realize that the law is on my side but sometimes you just get too tiered. I just want to file a report against her. I am too mentley tiered. So I followed his crusier.



I stayed in my vehical until he called me over. She gave a back handed apology. Saying that she did not realize that Delilah was REALLY a Service Animal. She didn't understand. I told her, why didn't you try to, why this first came up ? I don't lie. Back in the begining I had offered to bring information on Psych. Service Dogs. But your store stated that you don't care. I will accept that you are apologizing in front of the officer. (but I really don't believe you)

When we went to leave the officer explained to me what he had said to her.
"Would you tell a person in a wheelchair that they cannot come in?
Well no. But thats not the Same.
Or Someone who is black or hispanic?
No?
Do you realize this woman could sue both You and the store for everything you've got? That you broke a Federal law?

From what I could see there was a lot of hand waving on her part.

He suggested that I contact the NYS Civil Liberties Union.
It is in NYCity. Not a Local call. Found a local human. Still waiting to hear back.

Having a Service Animal can be a blessing in so many ways. Delilah has made my life.
That is a telling statement isn't it?

She has made my life.

If it wasn't for her I would be still so afraid to even leave the house. To open the front door to get the mail. Now don't me wrong, I still have major issues. And I push them each day .

IMPORTANT HEALTH ADVICE FOR WOMEN

Do you have feelings of inadequacy?

Do you suffer from shyness?

Do you sometimes wish you were more assertive?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist about Sauvignon Blanc.

Sauvignon Blanc is the safe, natural way to feel better and more confident about yourself and your actions. It can help ease you out of your shyness and let you tell the world that you're ready and willing to do just about anything.

You will notice the benefits of Sauvignon Blanc almost immediately and, with a regimen of regular doses, you can overcome any obstacles that prevent you from living the life you want to live. Shyness and awkwardness will be a thing of the past and you will discover many talents you never knew you had.

Stop hiding and start living.

Sauvignon Blanc may not be right for everyone. Women who are pregnant or nursing should not use it. However, women who wouldn't mind nursing or becoming pregnant are encouraged to try it.

Side effects may include dizziness, nausea, vomiting, incarceration, erotic lustfulness, loss of motor control, loss of clothing, loss of money, loss of virginity, delusions of grandeur, table dancing, headache, dehydration, dry mouth, and a desire to sing Karaoke and play all-night rounds of Strip Poker, Truth Or Dare, and Naked Twister.

WARNINGS:

* The consumption of Sauvignon Blanc may make you think you are whispering when you are not.

* The consumption of Sauvignon Blanc may cause you to tell your friends over and over again that you love them.

* The consumption of Sauvignon Blanc may cause you to think you can sing.

* The consumption of Sauvignon Blanc may make you think you can converse enthusiastically with members of the opposite sex without spitting.

* The consumption of Sauvignon Blanc may create the illusion that you are tougher, smarter, faster and better looking than most people.

Please feel free to share this important information with as many women as you feel may benefit!

Now just imagine what you could achieve with a good Pinot Noir...

Sickies

1.)
Delilah just puked. Big, giant doggie puke. But she had the right idea .... our fuzzy heroine ran her butt to the master bathroom first! Made it to the large cotton rug in front of the sink. Then hurled. And tried, to ball up the carpet. Came and got me to bring her outside. Now she is safe and cozy at the end of the couch ~ snoozzzzing
