Chali was our 12 year old lab that came to live with us when she was 5, and Lillabit was a year old.  Chali lost her battle with diabetes and the complications over the summer of 2010.  She has joined Mr Stitch and Daniel at the Rainbow Bridge.

Chali has always enjoyed a nice bottle of "Merlot over and Play Dead" from Mutt Lynch Winery

She enjoys all the lovin' she gets from her buddy Maxx

But mostly she just likes to sleep - in any position she wants to.

Chali was diagnosed with diabetes in April 2006, and was completely blind in less than 6 months.  She received surgery to correct her sight, and within a few months was diagnosed with Glaucoma.  As a result, Chali has lost her left eye and is about 95% blind in her right.  She hears (different than listens) just fine, and her smell is spot on.  She is a little limited in her activity where she is not familiar, but does quite well on her walks and around the house.  A BONK here and there - especially when we do not put things away!

Ranger is her BEST friend in the world...

Daily cleaning from Ranger...Chali wears a harness so that we can "steer" her around better.
