Although Mark Levin is known as a constitutional lawyer and a nationally syndicated broadcaster, he is, first and foremost, a dog lover. In 1998, he and his family welcomed a half-Border Collie/half-Cocker Spaniel they named Pepsi into their lives. Six years later, his wife and son persuaded him to adopt a dog from the local shelter, a Spaniel mix. It turned out he was older than originally thought, and he was the most beautiful dog they'd ever seen. They named him Sprite.

It was the first of September 2008 when Chloe came into my life. I was working at Bridge’s Pet Store in Lake Stevens, Washington, when an older woman came in looking very distraught. Her name was Maria and she asked for the directions to the nearest Animal Shelter. Thinking she may have lost a pet I asked her why she needed the shelter. She was about to leave the state for open heart surgery and could no longer care for her 8 month old Lhasa Apso puppy, Chloe. She did not have anyone who could take care of her exuberant puppy. Maria was clearly conflicted. I knew that the local shelter was a “kill” shelter so I asked her if I could take the puppy home and find a good home for Chloe. So at 3:30 that same day Maria returned with a dirty matted and neglected but lively puppy. Chloe was supposed to be white, but was hidden under a layer of soiled and matted hair. I could not see her eyes under the long bangs hiding them. Her ears were a long tangled mess.
I received Chloe’s AKC registration information and medical records and got contact information from her overwhelmed owner. Chloe had cost $1500 and came from champion lineage! Maria handed me the original receipts and Chloe’s leash, and off we went for the ½ hour drive to my house. On the drive home Chloe rested her head on my lap, sighed and looked up as if to say, “Thank you!” Later, I contacted the breeder in Missouri and got more background information about Chloe to fill in the gaps. I assured the breeder that I would take good care of Chloe. (more…)
