This little girl was the reason for our trip to Pug Nation in December 2018. She was the last sibling left from 5 that were relinquished earlier in the year. We had brought her brother Morris home in September and the amazing team at Pug Nation wanted to know if we were interested in adopting her, as she was the last of the 5 to be adopted. She was being overlooked by many because she was paralyzed, and due to this, needed to have her bladder and bowels expressed to go to the bathroom. There was no way we were going to let her stay there a minute longer than needed and three of us flew down over the Christmas break, did some volunteering and learned what we could about expressing. A few days later, we returned home with two ladies and had a family reunion!  It did not take long for her to run the show and become one of Kasey’s true loves. She always had an eye on what was going on and there was nothing that made you smile more than her barking and tapping her front legs in excitement. We lost our “Tappin Taya” when she started to struggle with ear and chest infections,  we could never get her at 80% and she became so very tired and lethargic, that it was just time to say goodbye.  The morning of her appointment, while expressing Tayva, Kasey noticed her insides just didn't feel right. If there was any doubt in our decision, there wasn't anymore, as internal bleeding was taking place.
