We are fortunate that now we have technology so that much info can be at our fingertips and are able to connect with others who are willing to share their experiences. Even as short a while ago as 10 years when I first started this journey with my Gibson, there was not much info out there, other than advice to have the dog euthanized! I was fortunate to find a gal who shared her experiences with me, and showed me it's not as scary as I had thought. That support is something I hope Gib and I, and now me, continue to offer others on this road. I'm glad you found a home for your pup with someone who did know. It's a scary road, especially with no information!
