When we told Hilary we were getting a dog, she drove home from college so she can bond with the new dog.
We adopted a dog last Saturday. Her name was Sissy, but I changed it to Sandy. She is a sheltie collie, border collie mix. They think. She looks like a fox. She is a sweet dog, but she had been abused. It will take some TLC and time before she'll trust us. She sleeps in the house and dosen't make a peep. She is also house trained. She's about 14 months old, which is a guess. I didn't really care what kind of breed we got, I just thought it would be a good idea to adopt. I've never done that before. But I'm hopeful it will be a good decision.
