Today has been a very exciting day for me. I have been on the edge of my seat since Sunday.

We have a new family member named Sarah as of this afternoon.

We were told she was rescued from a puppy mill all cooped up in a caged and kept bred.

She is a 7 year old female cream colored standard poodle. She is registered.

They told me she disliked me completely so when i handed Ellis the leash they jumped and said nooooo she dislikes men!

They said we could take her outside for a walk when we went to meet

her. I came back alone and the foster family were soo antsy asking me where she was when she walked in with Ellis and i called her to me she came over i pet her and she went back and sat on Elis feet. TO see thier mouths fall open was hiliarious.

They told the vet they could not believe she had made a liar out of them.

She needed a little grooming and somethign new for her so we went to Petsmart and she was groomed (stood so polite like a lady while they did this) then we found her a pink collar with bling a new leash and a frilly necklace.

She has settled in and gets along well with all my others. I am so happy I literally thought i was having a heart attack when we got out of the truck back at home. Was not sure how the oth4ers would respond to her.

She's one lucky dog, now that you have her!! Bless you!

We had rain on Tuesday. The horses got muddy, and now it's hot again (well, in the 90s which I'll take over 113 any day!)
