Lily

Our new former farmdog Lily, adopted under tragic circumstances,  is adjusting to small town "suburban" life absolutely fantastically.  We have not had a single problem. She even rides quietly in the back of Mrs. T's Buick.  All my hunting dogs and even Baron were required to ride in the back of the Chevy pickup. What a sweetheart.

    What a beautiful girl, lovely name as well ;) Congratulations you guys, and well done.

    "Saving one dog won't change the world, but it will change the world for that one dog" - don't know who first penned that, but I'm reminded of it most every day.

    Delighted to hear that you and Lily are both happy together.

    My uncle, who rescued every dog he ever had, did it because the dog appreciated it! Sounds like that is the case with the Troutbirders!

    Cheers,

    Jo
