It's true. We adopted Brooke in 2008 from Last Chance Rescue, after her mom had died when she was only a couple weeks old. Mona, whom we adopted in 2010 from Last Day Dog Rescue, was slated to be euthanized because of her age (estimated to be 9, going on 10, by our vet) at a SE Michigan 'shelter'. Her foster mom, A, saved her from a certain death and even helped relieve her stress and her constant licking of her paws. Where most rescues would be leery of adopting out a dog to a family with a 1-year-old, A took a chance on our family, and we couldn't be more happy with our Mona-Litze. Our hope is to get her enrolled and complete therapy dog certification so she can become part of the Tail Waggin' Tutors at the local library. Tail Waggin' Tutors pairs children that have trouble reading with a dog for them to practice their reading. Dogs are excellent listeners :)
Anywho. Enough about the loves of my life!
I had Nic cut me a piece of scrap wood, and I just went to town painting. Here's what I came up with:
Total cost? 40 cents for a paintbrush :) Gotta love that.
Can't wait to see more.
