We have adopted a new four legged friend into our family-
The story behind the adoption: Columbus day weekend was an exciting one. My parents came in to surprise me for my birthday- They just didnt know they would be helping us rescue a dog. It was the Sunday before my parents were going to leave and we were on our way to run a few errands. On our way out we spotted a dog trying to cross one of the busy streets we live by. I made my parents stop because I felt that we needed to get her to a safe place before she was hit. My dad loaded her up and back home we went. We decided to keep her for the night with plans of taking her to a shelter Monday morning. Martin told me not to fall in love with her because we were not keeping her. Martin on the other hand did not stick to that. He fell instantly in love. Bright and early Monday morning we took her to the vet. Sadly our Bluebell suffers from wanting too much love and heartworms. Bluebell will be going through what the vet called "dog chemmo" in a few more months. In a year we will have another hunting dog/running dog for Martin. Until then she is taking it easy and receiving A LOT OF LOVE.
Martin has started BOLC and is enjoying his time as a "student" again. I am slowly getting the hang of being by myself at night when he is in the field. Though I find I hear scary noises that I normally wouldn't hear when Martin is home. I have to watch the coin channel to put me to sleep because the dark makes the noises louder. I work now as a stylist at the Blue Door Boutique (one of my absolute favorite stores) http://www.thebluedoorboutique.com/
We are getting excited about going home for Christmas to see all of our family and friends. All three dogs will be joining us on our long journey home! We will see how that goes... It may be a crazy 12 hour drive.
