My Story:

Hello everyone :-)

My name is Emily and I am a full time carer to our three kids, two have severe autism and our bub has cerebral palsy.

My husband and I are a great team and in the past we have owned a Great Dane, this was his very first dog but I’ve always grown up with dogs. We are about to have our second, her name is Xena and her colour is mantle. We opened an instagram account for her which documents her birth and every day leading up to her homecoming @xenaagirl. Xena will serve not only as a companion but as a service dog for our human babies.

I believe in positive training methods and all the dogs I’ve had over the years have been impeccable trained, adored and considered one of the family.

We could not be more excited to share her life with you all. In the past we created a post via social media to ask if anyone anywhere in the world would send our pup a little homecoming gift. For a few weeks we enjoyed receiving small packages with little toys, blankets and treats for our pup. It was the most beautiful thing ever and made homecoming so special.

We would like to ask this of you all here if you’d like to send her a gift we would be so happy to receive them and give them to her. The address is 58 Holme Road Ferntree Gully VIC, Australia 3156. We would love a letter included with your gift if you send one to tell us about where it has come from and what inspired you to offer a gift to little Xena, what your journey has been with dogs and to thank you for your contribution to Xena’s early life (if you include a return address For correspondence).

I so hope to hear from some (or a lot of you!) and be sure to have a look at Xena as she grows on her instagram account @xenaagirl

Lots of love and blessings to you all! It’s great to know this forum is here for us.

Thank you dane lovers! We are so excited.
