The lovely Michai was also lined up for a new home alongside him, but she fell victim to Pancreatitis due to her weakened state following her Distemper infection and died (see her story on her Remembrance Page).  

Gandalf too had Distemper, but managed to fight it off, and now we are happy to report that LOUIE is joining him in his new home (you can read Louie's full story on his Profile Page).  Despite being run over several times, and having to have his right hind leg amputated, he remains the happiest of dogs, with a winning character, and will be an inseparable buddy to Gandalf in their new home together.
