Title: New Dog
Post by: Dark Lightning on June 30, 2019, 05:53:09 PM
Rescued a dog from the shelter yesterday. Mostly King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, but has really long legs. Can't tell that from this pic, though. We were told by the staff that she's hard to handle, can't be brushed, groomed, etc. She has already adopted my wife, and has a really sweet disposition. My wife is currently brushing the dog's hair.  ;)

The most admirable "trick" that a dog does is to return tier host's love, and loyalty, many times fold.

Indeed, even if they are jerks. Present company excepted. Here's another pic of her. Those are not the legs of a purebred Cavalier King Charles Spaniel! Not that I'm complaining.

She was just out back. Those legs...she runs like the wind! We'll have to take her to the dog park and let her get it all out.

Yes, she's cute. We took her to the vet yesterday and discovered that, indeed, behind those eyes lies a crazed dog. She went ape when the vet tried to examine her, so we gave up. She will have to be sedated for any further visits. Just something about vets and stethoscopes, I guess.
