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 :)
