Blackie was one of Mrs. Madlin Stevenson’s beloved dogs. She entered the center in September of 2000. Blackie never had any problems with the other dogs or cats at the center. She was loved by everyone at the center, especially Janet with whom she had a special bond. Blackie loved all of the humans in her life but her love for Janet was unique and intense. Wherever Janet was Blackie was right behind. They had a beautiful, loving relationship which will always be remembered fondly by the staff.
Blackie was approximately 15 years old when she was diagnosed with bone cancer. It was a pleasure having her with us for three years. She is and always will be sorely missed at the center.
