Hi!  My name is Anya and I would like to share some of my interests and goals in life with you. When I was 4 years old I came to the USA to live from Russia. That Christmas my mom and my brother Danny traveled to Siberia to find me. After coming home, I met my Dad and my  2 other brothers George and Matthew. And about 10 huge Alaskan Malamutes!!! For over 35 years my mom, Karen devoted her life to all animals. I started to listen when my mom would talk to people, about taking good care of their pets. We owned Alaskan Malamutes, the Shiba Inu, Persian Cats,  and use to raise Rocky Mountain Horses. Sometimes my mom would spend hours explaining information she knew to people who had questions about owning a new puppy, what to do about health problems, what were the best dog foods, etc. I realized my mom had a wealth of information to share with people and never asked for anything in return.  At this time my brother Danny was showing our  AKC dogs with my mom, and my youngest brother Matthew was taking care of the dogs in our Kennel. My Dad was the horse lover. We enjoyed raising many foals together. So after a few years I decided I wanted to become a veterinarian and devote my life to helping animals too. After we moved to a more secluded part of New Jersey, my brothers had moved on and I started my pet supply business, in hopes of saving to become a veterinarian someday.  I was only 13 years old at the time but knew what I wanted. I realized I would have to work hard and stay home weekends to save for college. George my oldest brother was now moving back home and would be caring for our shibas with me. This is a 24/7 job, which allot of people don't understand. We take excellent care of all our pets. My mom had always taken care of the dogs, cats and horses and made sure all had food, fresh water,  and clean bedding. Our dogs receive allot of extra love , and are born in our arms. We are with them as soon as they are born. Icewind is known for pets with great temperaments.  When you arrive at Icewind I will be here to meet you and explain to you all the knowledge I have learned from my mom. Sometimes it seems like we answer over a million questions in a day about puppies. If you need puppy supplies my store will be open for your convince. I can definitely tell you what your puppy will need. My weekends are now devoted to helping people own a family pet for many years. My mom is more involved in paperwork, answering emails and working with rescue dogs. Before making your appointment , please fill out our puppy application and send it to us, so we can help you select the right puppy for your family.  Also ,  Please take the time to read our website before your visit. The more you read the more you will learn about Shibas. Our testimonial page is a great place to learn about other people and how they liked their Icewind Shibas.                         

Cheers! Anya

LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION TO ATTEND ANIMAL SCIENCE COURSES


I have had the privilege of knowing Anya for five years in the capacity of being a family friend. During that time, I have recognized so many mature qualities for such a young lady. She has demonstrated great responsibility by running the pet store she created. Her personable nature shines during the hours she spends with the clients. Anya has a wide knowledge base about dogs and cats as she has demonstrated with the clients. She also helps in the delivery process of the puppies as well as grooming and personal care of the animals. I have also observed her ability to handle everything while her parents were on vacation. I am most impressed by her desire to establish and work for her own college fund. It is my distinct feeling that Anya would be an asset to the veterinarian program. Her great drive and compassion as well as aquired knowledge will help her realize sucess.

I was honored to be asked to write a letter in behalf of Anya Moore. I have known Anya for approximately six years. I have admired her talents and her leadership abilities. She has mentioned her interest in animals on many occasions. Anya recently told me about the vo tech program and I explained to her that I had that I had gone to a vocational school sixteen years ago and how it has made me extremely successful. I believe that in order to be successful at something, you need to have a passion for something. Anya has that passion for animals.

Anya has a self motivated personality and with that she can accomplish anything. Mrs. Moore has encouraged Anya to go after her dreams. She has helped her start her own business, which is also doing well. Anya gives up her own personal time to dedicate to the animals at her business on the weekends. She continues to strive for new ideas as she invests her time and energy to the dogs. Anya has always talked about being a veterinarian as I'm sure that this program will allow her to continue her dream.

I highly recommend Anya, as I don't know of a more talented, intelligent, hard working thirteen year old.

I am the host and executive producer of a children's TV show, Kids Training Puppies which is produced and filmed in the Broadcast Media Arts Class in the school. It is my great pleasure to recommend Anya Moore for your animal science class.

Anya was adopted from Russia when she was four, as you might imagine she had to learn the English language as well as adjust to western society. Her adopted mother is the breeder of Shiba Inus and so as the daughter of a breeder Anya had to assist in all that is involved in breeding. I can tell you as a breeder myself it is very hard work and long hours. Anya shines when working with animals. She started a pet supply store in her garage and offers grooming and pet care to earn funds for her college education. Because of her love of animals she also donated 5% of her profits to rescue dogs. Anya's weekends are devoted to working in her store and helping people decide on how to pick the perfect puppy. While helping her mother, Anya has assisted in two operations along with her vet as well as numerous deliveries and the raising of puppies. Anya now co-owns the breeding business with her Mom.

In meeting Anya on my TV show, I could tell Anya was not your average teen. She handled herself very well on camera and was very informative to the viewers as well as the children on the show. I feel confident that Anya will excel in what ever she puts her mind to and hope that you will consider such a determined student for your school.

If you have any further questions about Anya please don't hesitate to call.

Very Truly Yours,
JoAnn Dahan Host and Executive Producer of Kids Training Puppies

I am writing this letter on behalf of Anya Moore. I have known Anya for a number of years now and I am very impressed with the young lady. She is a very industrious and inquisitive young lady. She is not just an animal lover but possesses a sincere concern for the animal's welfare.

Anya has grown up with animals all her life. Her parents breed dogs and have horses and cats as well. She has been a major player in raising and caring for these animals. On numerous occasions Anya has assisted me with various surgical procedures and done very well. She is not afraid to get her hands dirty. More recently she has her own pet sitting service. The money she earns is going towards her tuition cost.

The young lady has a burning desire to become a veterinarian. I can think of no one else more deserving of fulfilling this dream.

I sincerely hope that you will give her application favorable consideration.
Thank You very much S. Gutman, DVM



THE PRINCESS AND THE TOAD
Some years ago, our family expanded to include a one year old Shiba Inu named Princess Misha. Like all Shiba Inus, Misha had an innate love of the outdoors, and of course, the cooler the better. She would lie curled up in a ball on top of a snowdrift on the coldest of winter days with her tail flicked over her only vulnerable spot -- her nose. When fresh snow fell, she would lay so still that she soon disappeared under a blanket of snow and became a part of the landscape. Every so often, she stood up, shook off, turned in a few circles, and then laid back down to keep watch over her domain.

On warm summer days, she found the coolest corner in the house and spent her days napping. Then after her nightly walk, she'd spend the rest of the evening stretched out on the cool cement of the front patio. All through the hot summers and into the fall, this was her nightly ritual.

One summer evening, as we sat out on the front patio relishing a late-evening breeze, we saw a small toad hop out of the grass, then down the sidewalk to a few feet away from where Misha was lying. Suddenly Misha stood up, walked over to the toad, picked it up in her mouth and then walked back to her resting place and lay back down. She then put her chin down on the walk, opened her mouth and let the toad hop out while we watched in astonishment. The toad sat there in front of Misha's eyes, the two seeming to stare at one another for some time. Then the toad hopped down the walk and back into the grass.

On other nights that summer, we noticed this same ritual. We commented on the fact that Misha seemed to have a fondness for toads. We worried because some toads can be poisonous, but since she never experienced any ill effect and never hurt them, we didn't interfere. If she spotted a toad in the street on one of her walks, she would actually run over to it and nudge it with her nose till it had safely hopped off the street and back on to the grass, out of harm's way.

The following summer was the same. Misha enjoyed cooling off by lying out on the front patio after nightfall. Many times, we noticed a toad within inches of her face. At other times, we watched as she walked into the grass and came back to her resting spot with a toad in her mouth, only to release it. The toad always stayed near her for some time before hopping off into the night. The only difference from the previous summer was that she spent more nights in this manner, and toads were bigger. A toad always seemed to be close at hand.

One night early in the third summer, after letting Misha out, we watched as a large toad hopped out of the grass and over to her, stopping inches in front of her. Misha gently laid her head down so that her nose almost touched the toad. That was when it finally dawned on us -- perhaps there was just one toad! Could Misha have shared the past three summers with the same toad? We called a local wildlife expert who told us that toads can live three to six years, so it was entirely possible. Somehow these two unlikely companions had formed a bond. At first it seemed so strange to us. But then we realized we were very different from Misha too, but the love between us seemed completely natural. If she could love us, we marveled, why not a toad?

Misha had a minor operation that summer, and we kept her indoors for a while afterwards to recuperate. Each night she went to the front door and asked to be let out, but we didn't let her. Instead, leash in hand, we took her for short walks. One evening a few days later, I went to the front door to turn on the porch light for guests we were expecting. When the light came on illuminating the front stoop, there, to my utter amazement, sat Toad (as we came to call him), staring up at me through the screen door! He had hopped up the three steps from the patio, and we supposed he was looking for Misha. Such devotion could not be denied. We let Misha out to be with her pal. She immediately picked the toad up in her mouth and took it down the steps where she and Toad stayed nose to nose until we brought her in for the night. After that, if Misha didn't get to come out soon enough, Toad frequently came to the door to get her. We made sure that the porch light was turned on before dark and posted a big sign on the porch, "Please don't step on the toad!"

We often laughed about the incongruous friendship -- they did make a comical sight, gazing into each other's eyes. But their devotion sometimes made me wonder if I should regard them so lightly. Maybe it was more than just a friendship. Maybe in her stalwart toad, Princess Misha had found her Prince Charming.
