Jen,
> Hey....yeah Sammie's been doing much better since she got back
from the
> vet's office. She's been on her meds all week. She still has a few more
days of pills
> left, but we can already see a difference in her. We've been taking
her to Bartlett > park every night for a two mile walk/jog...she loves
it!! My husband and I both have noticed that she's opening up a bit more
too.
> For instance, she'll lay in our laps on the couch with us and she's more
restful at night
> (I think the walks are helping that too). I should have a picture to
you before too long. All of us will be
> together this weekend. Sammie has been like the missing piece of the
puzzle in our life. I always
> knew that I was going to get dogs, I just didn't know when or where.
Then, when my mom
> came home with two dogs, Lucy and Casey, from Guardian Angel
Pet Rescue, I knew that's
> where I wanted to get my dogs. I truly wasn't going to get a dog two
weekends ago. But when I saw
> Lexi/Sammie, there was just something about her. I automatically fell in
> love with her. She is so pretty and loving!! I can't believe that no one
was really taking
> an interest to her. I guess everything happens for a reason. She was just
meant to come to home
> with me that weekend!! My husband and kids must have a great deal of trust
in me,
> seeing is I picked her out all by myself. I was telling my
grandmother about her. She's owned three black/white
> huskies in her life. I told her that Sammie was a husky mix, but we didn't
know what her other
> part was...maybe pit bull or boxer. I'm sure that's the reason why some
people wouldn't be
> interested in her, but just b/c she may have pit bull in her doesn't mean
she's going to be a
> holy terror. My grandmother agreed and said it's all in the way you
raise them...The
> family that originally had her has NO IDEA what they're
missing....Lucky us, huh?
> I'll stop rambling...Have a great rest of the week!
> Sincerely,
> Kira, Kelly, Kasey, Kelsey, MeMe, Nemo and Sammie :)
