Here's a couple threads about Indy's introduction, although now that you ask I don't recall ever posting a thread when she actually moved in & became a permanant family member. Oops. lolOriginally Posted by ComedyDevil
What's Indy's story? I know you've had her for a while now, where did she come from? Was there a thread for her arrival?
Beautiful pictures. How's Nanook doing?

Her dad, Indy's dad(Joe), does not post much obviously, heck he rarely even checks the site (but he is a good fur dad & b/f)! He joined pretty much just to kind of get a feel for the people he was meeting in Ohio at the Memorial Day bash. He knows this is kind of "my place" so he kind of leaves PT alone. I kind of like it that way. heehee (I love him but sometimes it's nice to have your own little space).
He was looking for a dog about a year and a half ago maybe 2 years, purebred labs actually. He was on a waiting list with a very reputable lab breeder in our area. I guess one day he went over to visit the dogs and the breeder was "fostering" Indy for their friend who was sent over to Iraq. Indy was in need of a new home. She instantly took to Joe and later in the week Indy met his kids whom she also had an instant bond with. It was decided then that Indy was Joe's dog & not a future puppy from one of their litters.
She came spayed & UTD on all vaccines. She just celebrated her 4th birthday on the Fourth of July (that's how she got her name, because she was born on Independance Day).
Nanook is doing so-so I guess, partly good partly bad, depends on how you look at it I guess. This is a tough subject for me as he's the light of my life. As much as I LOVE dogs it took me years & years to show my dad how responsbile I was and to talk him into allowing me to have one. Nanook is my first dog and boy oh boy he's been the BEST dog too! Everyday he's with us is a blessing. He still appears to be very happy & pain free. How he can be pain free is beyond me but he is & that's what matters at this point. His mobility issues are getting a little worse, he's falling over, tripping, loosing balance a little more lately and he's a little more wobbly on his feet. He's also loosing weigh fairly rapidly.
Thank you for thinking of him, we sure appreciate it.
