Well, we're pretty sure she's a stray. No one around here knows who she belongs to, and there's not that many people around. I"m pretty sure that Girl is a German Shep/Chow/Labrador mix. She is an absolute sweetheart. At first Mom wouldn't even let me pet her (but of course I did anyways ), but now since she sees how well Jack and Girl get along, she likes to sit outside and watch them play. My mom is warming up to her. She won't let me feed her but I am allowed to let her go into the barn when it rains and give her water. I think that she hasbeen neglected or abused because if I am sitting down next to her and I stand up too quickly she will cower away. And she hunches down a lot when she approaches you. She won't go around men (at least not the ones here), but she goes around me and my mom. I am hoping that I will be able to keep her, even if she cant come inside I can atleast feed her and get her vaccinations. Thanks for all the comments on Jack! I am telling him everything and you can tell he's proud of himself!
