Jackie Dog (Our Latest Distraction)

The darling face in the photo belongs to Jackie (aka Jacquelyn), our newly-adopted puppy from the animal rescue shelter. A German Shepherd/Collie mix, Jackie's approximately a year old with lots of energy for digging holes and running through the fenced-off old garden.



Angus has taken the news surprisingly well (albeit lying down).



The cats (especially Poppy) not so much ....


She's a little shy, so needless to say we spend a lot of time trying to "get to know her" and make her feel comfortable with her new home. So I apologize in advance for the sparseness of the blog posts during the next few weeks, as I will be running through a small field with a hyper-energetic puppy ....

What a wonderful face! It's always so nice to see an unwanted puppy find a good home. Hugs from me to Jackie.
