New member of the family

Post by Cindy J »

Yesterday we adopted a chow x golden from the SPCA. We have named her Gracie. The name they had given her was Vermont and that just didn't seem to fit.

She was a tad bit timid with Chance at first, but has already opened up. She lived in an apartment her first 14 months of life and never had off leash time in a yard before. Her first time in our yard was priceless. She quickly went potty, then sniffed around... then rolled on her back with the cutest grin on her face.

Introducing ~~~~~~ (that is a drum roll) Gracie

The SPCA had to shave a lot of her coat off because of matting, but they were able to leave about an inch of fur in most places. She is a tad bit overweight... but we already began walks and she loved checking out the neighborhood. She knows "sit" and will offer a paw when asked to "shake"

It is hard to believe someone surrendered her.... BUT, we are so happy that she is now in our home! Today is less than 24 hours and she has her tail up!
