way I sees it, Comeback Kennels is a work in progress -
& I am part of the evolution. Every day I get to run
my dogs and talk to them out in the dog lot while sitting

Zorro Update August
10, 2008
Many of you have been asking about
Zorro. He is doing very well these days. He is back
in our dog lot where is is most comfortable. He
did not like the house life & we could see he
wanted to go back outside with his team mates. We
have seen him steadily improve since he went back
to his own dog house. He will never run again due
to his injuries but he has a new job as a stud and
fathered a nice litter of handsome pups this summer.
