Requested Raustyk pics

[Ginger's Mom]

Ah Raustyk, how nice that you get to go to work with Mom. Sometimes it is rough getting up for that 9-5, isn't it? Good thing they don't mind if you take a few breaks during the day. Looks like the trip home is the most fun part of the day though.

What a great story about Raustyk's name. It's so unusual and befitting for such a beautiful lady

Raustyk, you are gorgeous and we haven't seen you in ages! Your mommy is so very lucky to have you with her at work. I would love to have my Duke at work with me. You have fun all day long and especially after work.

She's a beautiful Rottie. That's so neat that she gets to go to work with you. How much does she weigh, she's a big girl, not fat just big like a Rottie is. I'd love to snuggle with her, she's so pretty.

I get to bring both dogs to work with me, & when I get my pup he will be coming too. But with Nanook being so old & having a hard time manouvering he only comes on his better days.

Raustyk weighs about 82lbs. She does need to loose a few pounds, like about 78lbs would be perfect (and I swear the camera added a couple pounds too, she doesn't look that big in person).
She's a tiny bit over 26" at the withers, a little bigger than standards but she's a shelter girl who probably came from a bad BYB. I don't care she's my love bug!

She had both cruciates repaired on both back legs & has permanent fractures of some of her sesamoidal bones in her one front leg. She is also 7.5 years and all of this is *just* starting to catch up with her so I have decreased her exercise a bit the last half a year. I also changed her food at the begining of spring and she started to get bigger so she's back to our old food now.
Between the food changes & the decreased activity it's been a little of a challenge to get her weight adjusted properly. We're getting there, slow but sure.

She is such a pretty girl. You're lucky you can bring her to work. I'll be able to bring my dog to work too. It's fun to have them around all the time. Raustyk must brighten up the room.

I wish that I could take my girls to work with me. Sometimes I wish that they didn't need a leash and would stay with me like that, but no such luck, oh well.
