Hey.....

Tomorrow I'm headed to Spokane to pick up my new dog. Don't know the age, as she was dropped at the Humane Society at night, and they have no info on her. She is a Blue Heeler Mix. She's totally cool, visited a few times, and even took her out on a walk. She's totally awsome. She listens well, and knows several commands, and minds pretty good. But she is also a ball of very potent energy, lol. That's what I like about her, for my small house and yard, and only a couple blocks from the riverfront trail and not far from the boat launch, where people take their dogs on the large grass lawns and play ball and frisbee, etc. It will be awsome. She's such a doll too. Her name is Betty. I'm keeping it the same, as she responds to it well, and don't want to try and confuse her by changing it. But anyways, I'm so excited, and am looking forward to the 3 hour drive to get her tomorrow. It will be awsome.......

Congrats Wolf, I can not wait for pictures of her. She sounds wonderful.

As for age, they are guessing about a year and a half. But not 100% sure.

Congrats! Can't wait to see pics.

Yay! For the record, I think Betty is a great name. I, too, cannot wait for pics. Maybe they will be posted later???

I love her name-congratulations on getting her. She sounds GREAT.

And of course, applause on a rescue--

[insert deafening applause here]

Well, it was a long ride, but she did very well. We stopped at 3 rest areas to stretch out the legs and go potty if needed. She loved it. Then we took a short walk here. It was great. Here's some pics of her......
