Pretty Girl Goes Home

It was a day of joy and a day of sadness. Three months after Pretty Girl came into our lives, she has left us almost as suddenly. Tuesday she went on to her forever home. The couple that adopted her have a long history with German Shepherds. They recently lost their senior lady of the pack and about a year ago, lost their other older dog. They have an 8-year-old male named Rolf and now, he is joined by Pretty(or name TBD).

We bustled about the house to get a little goodbye care package together for her, sending along some food, treats, a toy and her blanket.
Great pix and more of the story after the jump

Yappy Holidays

I think the picture pretty much says it all. Happy holidays.

Milestones and Messes

It has been an eventful time here at chez Kittelson-McFee. Willow has marked not one, but two major events in her life with us.

First, she dropped below the 75 pound mark. At the last weigh in, she tipped the scales at 74 pounds - a 14 pound drop from July! She still does not like her walks, but we keep at it. She does seem to like her trips to the dog park, so maybe we will try more of those.
Which leads us to her next big event. She made her first trip to "work" with me.
