Well, we have a new baby girl in our family! And as Sean and I go, it's of course a furry baby. We had to put our boy, Starsky, asleep in August 2010 and we were without a dog for a couple months. It was nice in ways but for those of you that have pets, you know what they bring. So, we went on the hunt for our new addition. I saw this cutie online named Pumpkin and her two sisters, Cranberry and Biscuit. We had looked at a few dogs at the shelters, but none had really stuck out. We took each girl outside and played and I loved Pumpkin! She was the one I liked online and just got a feeling that she was supposed to come home with us. Plus when I got down on the ground with her, she gave me doggy kisses. Yeah, that helped. Anywho, we adopted her that day but couldn't bring her home because she wasn't spayed yet.
The shelter told us she was about 7 months old, but when we picked her up four days later at the vet, I asked the vet and she said she was about a year and a half old. We brought her home, renamed her Summer and she's become a great part of the family.
She's been so good from the start and has learned very well. She was very scared of car rides and going on walks, but she's getting much better at those, too. We are loving our new little girl. : )
Here are pictures I took with my phone of her after we filled out the adoption papers.
She LOVES the snow!
Yes, she has settled in just nicely!
