the song is "Jammin'" NeufVies' Lumi Spot Lumi Spot arrived at The Zoo on March 2, 2002. He was around 14 weeks old, and already 37 pounds. He'd been surrendered to the Humane Society by his owners because he was "too rough" with their 3-year old. (He wasn't "rough", he was enthusiastically affectionate. I guess they never heard of supervising the interaction between their child and puppy.) The HS automatically euthanizes pit bulls - which is what they thought he was - but because he was so young they called a rescuer in the area who does pit bulls and asked her if she wanted him. She called me and asked "there's this deaf pup....... do you want to foster him?" I did, of course. On Friday she brought him to me. She had named him Lumi Spot; since it seemed to fit him well, I kept the name. Baby Lumi, the day he was rescued It didn't take long before I was head over heels in love with him. Still, I tried to adopt him out. Really, I did! Within a couple of months I knew I couldn't do it, though, so I made a bargain with myself - I could keep him, but only if I quit smoking after 33 years. I adopted him and tried a couple of times to quit smoking, and was finally successful; on August 5, 2002, I awoke a non-smoker and haven't touched a cigarette since. The girls like having a "little" brother, even if he is bigger than they are. He's everybody's favorite cuddle partner. Lumi and his sister Glenys Lumi's a good boy, affectionate and open-hearted, a friend to every living creature he meets. Lumi earned his Canine Good Citizenship certificate in September, 2002, at the age of approximately 9 months, he's familiar with all the agility obstacles and we'll be starting agility training in the summer of 2003. I think weight pulling might be an activity he'd enjoy, too. My handsome boy
