Number 13 - We Call Him Lui

Yes, we got number thirteen in our house! For hours was he running around on the busy street, confused. You could see he wasn't street smart, and he looked at everyone that passed him in a hurry (normally longtime strays don't take eye contact with passing humans). He followed me and Max to the day care to pick up Olivia He wanted to visit the children.

Friendly and loving and sweet.

He was close to be hit five times by fast speeding cars. He flew up on the walkway, bumped into a girl that got scared (she didn't see that he tried to avoid a car) and she smacked him with her purse. Scared, he flew out on the street again, nearly hit by another car.

I had it. I couldn't watch this, or even worse I didn't want to find him dead on the street the next morning while walking my children.

No collar. But very friendly, and not afraid to walk into my house--my other strays are still walking on eggshells when entering the house.

He responds brilliant on English accent...so if you recognise "Lui" I know he have an owner somewhere, send me an Amore email. Or,send this blog to friends, maybe someone knows Lui Amore

Magazine - Wonderful Dog

Journalist Anna, and Photographer Per were on an assignment for The Magazine, Harliga Hund (Wonderful Dog--Bellissima Cane) from Sweden. A wonderful professional team that also had to babysit my children, that suddenly, went monkey crazy.

My babysitter called 15 minutes before they came and, cancelled....Well I thought this couldn't be so bad.
It never turned bad, it became a nightmare.....my children were everywhere, whining, fighting with each other. Could this be my children?

I felt like the team were covering a Nanny Program instead, where I as a parent, needed help with disciplining my kids.

But thank you Anna and Per I liked you a lot, you guys got Amore charisma, and did a fantastic job. I wish I could do this again, without children :-) and on a mission.

PS After they left, the kids slept for three hours
PS After four hours I had to go emergency with Olivia, she was sick
PS I adore my children

AWL Helps Tommy Get A Family

Three puppies was left on this Signoras street, and would have faced a hard life if not taken cared off. Tommy, was adopted by an Italian family that adores him.
He is a sweet heart.
Dr. Inga did the vaccination and a regular check up just to find out he is doing great.
A donation from the lady that adopted Tommy was made. Thank you so Amore much.

Good Luck Tommy!

Donations to AWL

Donated money does not go to "cleaning missions"
All the fantastic volunteers are donating the cleaning material --buckets, brooms, soap, detergent, gloves, towels, bowls, dog brushes, powder etc--and a lot of dog snacks.
6 hours off hard work on a Saturday, after a long week of hard work.
And many donated bags off dog food. Thank you so much for your big and generous hearts.

Kath (US) sent us a dog care package. Ylva, thank you for the bowl and cat snacks.
You guys are Amore.

Mission Cleaning Shelter

Thank you all great volunteers for today's mission cleaning. You did all a truly wonderful job.
Kristine, Rosa with boyfriend, Keegan, Jackie with neighbor. Siron and Brown, great job!

Dareen did an excellent grooming job, cutting the fur.

Vania and her husband with friends (3), you did a tough job very well.

Cleaning and brushing the dogs. Washing their cages and houses. Many were emotionally touched by the dogs and we hope we gave them a sunny day. They sure gave us a lot of Amore.

The dog "Fiora" was quickly everyone's favorite. Abandoned with her brother by their English owner when they moved to Hawaii (actually left them in their vacant apartment!!). She is around two years-old and so affectionate and well behaved. This dog truly deserves an owner to love forever!

Sarah and Bruce making lunch for the dogs.

In all, about 70 dogs and their approximately 20 pens were cleaned. We plan to mobilize again in 3 weeks to finish the job, hopefully with a powerwasher (for the pens) next time.

A Magazine is Coming to Campania

I am trying to catch up with writing, my passion, my life, but the last couple of days have just been full of work....and new surprises. Tomorrow I will write about a surprise that really rocked my feet (as well as others). For some it was good news...for others, heartbreaking.

One fun thing though will happen in the beginning of next week. A journalist and photographer will fly down here to Naples and visit me and my big family. Later I will tell you more about what magazine.....

First it was for a "home magazine" but I got "knocked out" by another big famous family here in Naples. One of Sweden's most famous boxers, Paolo Roberto ( I professionally like that guy, we lived in the same area in Stockholm)! But this journalist/photographer did some great research and realized that I probably was a better "fit" for another magazine....

We welcome the dog Amore magazine coverage of what we try to do in Campania.
