Today is Dixie's estimated 3rd birthday! We adopted her in December of 2009 when she was 9 weeks old so we won't have her 3 years until December.
I was working one night when the ACO brought her in from being abandoned in a dark alley on one of the coldest nights of the year. I just felt there was something special about her when he handed her to me.
Everyone knows I love all dogs, but this pup was special and she proved to me how special she was when I worked with her at the shelter. She would aroo at me everytime I went to see her. I thought you are quite the diva, aren't you?
But she was really in to me, so I brought my family to see her. And, after my 2 dogs Rocky & Jenny passed my dad said no more dogs. But, he could see what I was talking about when I said she was special.
So, we adopted her on December 17th, 2009.It's been a real fun few years with her. She makes me smile, each day without fail. She constantly goes around the house and puts a stuffed animal or ball in her mouth and aroo's at you like that day I worked with her at the shelter. I don't know what we would do without her and I hope we have many more happy, healthy years with her. Oh yeah and she totally makes you play fetch with her every.single.day.
Some things never change...

Happy 3rd birthday, Miss Dixie! We love you.
