One week ours!

We have had dear Sweet Pea for one week now and she is getting more and more comfortable each day. Like her sweet headshot? That was the picture from the Humane Society's website that I hadn't ever seen (Ted and I were looking at dogs and saw her just a day after she was relinquished). What a cutie with her pink bandana! It makes me sad too though. Someone loved her enough to put a cute little bandana on her the day they were giving her up? Ugh, makes my heart hurt.

Today she ate well, tucking into her wet food eagerly and reluctantly eating up the dry afterwards. Cutie.

She's been enjoying the dog park in the mornings, though she made it clear today that she was NOT to be mounted under any circumstances! Hee hee. You go, girl. She also goes into any water she sees along the trail, so I hope the next week goes by quickly so we can start obedience school and get her off leash!

The kids are back in school and she is always there to greet them when they arrive back home. She has, sadly, ripped up and chewed a few shirts and books, so the kids need to keep their stuff picked up around here - not a bad thing!

All in all, what she's learned in a week is astounding. What a great gal.
