Earlier this month Sirius, a dog with a non-infectious immune-mediated brain inflammation syndrome (granulomatous meningoencephalitis), joined the family of special-needs dogs and cats who live in our home. Here's a link to the photo a friend sent us that we fell in love with.
Below are a few scenes of Sirius as he settles in during the first couple of weeks in our home.
