Another Star in the Sky

    We have some sad news to report this week. One of our former foster's, Alue, also know as Perseus, passed away on Thursday. He lost his battle with cancer. We're going to remember him in this blog. He had many adventures with Nikita and Hoover, and let's not forget his sister's Aurora and Nyx. Alue wasn't one to play much, but Alue was known for his jokes. He always knew how to make Hoover laugh. He was also a food hound. He once got into our pantry and pulled the dog food out into the family room. Luckily, Nikita snitched on him by finding my dad and barking at him to come see what Alue had done. 
     Alue was a very mellow boy. Wherever he was he was quite relaxed. Of course this mellowness lead to an unfortunate incident. We were on a walk with Hoover and Alue. We stopped at a smell site and Hoover decided to mark it. This lead to Alue being urinated on the head until mum pulled him away. He didn't seem to be aware of what was going on. It was like he was in his own world. Needless to say Alue got a head cleaning when we got home.
    Alue was a fashionista. When he was our foster, we took him to a Northern Lights dog event to show him off for possible adopters. While he was there, he was the best dog to wear bunny ears. He walked all over with those ears on and never tried to pull them off. For being such a good boy, he got a Jack n the Box burger. For those who know Alue, he LOVED his food. 
     After several months of fostering Alue, he was adopted by two great dog lovers, Brad and Teresa. They now volunteer for Northern Lights and help out in many ways. They spoiled the boy, but he deserved all of it. My mum helped me put together a little slide show to say thanks to Alue for the snuggles and laughs. Alue is now north of the Rainbow Bridge with Nikita and his sister Aurora.
