Adopted July 2001
Update - August 2012
We
adopted Alexi from you in 2001 after fostering him. I enjoyed
reading the story about him on your website (based on a letter I wrote
to you about 2 years later). I just wanted you to know that at age 11,
Alexi continues to do well. He is very active and jumps and plays
all the time. He still appears unaware of his disability! He
is very healthy and independent. We have him checked regularly
but he shows no signs of the arthritis we were concerned might become a
problem. He remains very slim and I think this has contributed to
his overall well-being and ensures that he does not develop
complications with his missing limb or spine. People are
constantly amazed by his upbeat personality and high level of
activity. He continues to be an inspiration to us all!
