Gertie

We adopted Gertie in June 2007. I just wanted to update you on how great she is doing and what a wonderful addition she has made to our family. When we adopted her we were told by her foster parents that she was quiet as a mouse. Well, she has DEFINITELY found her voice and is “singing” frequently with our other beagle/basset hound mix Lulu. The two girls get along splendidly, almost like they were made for each other. Gertie is still timid playing with toys with mommy and daddy but she will raise holy havoc with Lulu. She has a glowing bill of health from the vet. And the nieces and nephews that come to visit adore her. She is soooo very gentle and patient with them. Although Gertie is a little timid on walks around the neighborhood, she and Lulu OWN the big backyard and make it known that this is their turf. Heaven forbid a squirrel, pigeon, cat, etc. comes in the yard. Everytime they are outside their little tails are going a mile a minute. I just wanted to share this with you and thank you for all the work you do. Gertie brings a smile to our face every day and she keeps Lulu’s tailing wagging constantly. (added 1/28/08)
