Postscript

I found out this evening that Audubon's brother, Ancho - who is also Zatarain's father - died yesterday of hemangiosarcoma. It's taking far too many of our great dogs these days. May he now play happily with his brothers, Audubon and Jed, at the Rainbow Bridge.

To learn more about the research that is being conducted to try to prevent this disease and several others in our great breed, please check out the Leonberger Health Foundation site. We have submitted blood and information from both of our dogs as part of the ongoing studies, and we also support the organization through donations. If you would like to help out, click here.
