    New addition!

    Hey PT! Long time no post.

    I've posted pictures of Brandee before as she lived with my mom back in New Mexico. My mom moved to Chicago last year, but was only able to ship one dog at a time because of financial reasons. Well, she's finally done shipping dogs and Brandee is now here in Chicago with us where she belongs.

    I took this picture the other day and thought you guys might like it.

    She's such a sweet dog.

    Without further ado....please meet Brandee!


    ETA:

    I figured I'd post a little on Brandee's background. We adopted her from a shelter about 12 years ago. She was only 3 months old at the time. Someone found her being beaten by some boys on an Indian reservation and brought her in. She had zero social skills and really should have been fostered before she was put up for adoption, but that didn't happen. It took us months to get a collar on her and even longer to get her on a leash. Fast forward 12 year and she's the biggest, sweetest, most loveable goofball anyone could ask for. She is super smart and will do anything for a treat. One of these days, I'd like to get one of her tricks on camera. It's so cute.

    Thanks for looking!

    Wow, she really is gorgeous, Debby. And I say that knowing that she probably wasn't that pretty little girl when your family adopted her. Congrats to you and your family for doing such a good job to help this pretty girl become the sweet little girl she is today. I am glad that she is back with her family and I hope that means we will get to see more of her (and Maggy, hint hint).

    What a pretty girl, she must be glad to be back with your mom! Maybe she started out rough, but just look at how your love has helped her bloom, she's precious!

    Brandee is a beautiful dog. I am so happy she got out of that bad setting
    and into a home with love in it. She is precious.

    Funny that you say that. She was not a pretty puppy. She had bald spots all over her (they think from her littermates picking on her). But she had the biggest, sweetest doe eyes that just melted my heart. I thought to myself that no one is gonna love this ugly little thing like I can. But look at her now.

    You're so sweet with your hints. I'll try to get some new pics of her. She just got a haircut, too!
