A New Puppy to Love

We visited PAWS in Lynnwood last week to take a look at dogs who needed a 'forever' home.  It's so hard to move on after losing Nala, but we love older dogs and have a wonderful, loving home for them, so we started on our journey for our new dog.

After many online reviews, phone calls, and visits, we ended up Saturday spending time with Polly, an 8-year-old black Labrador Retriever.  She was very cute, and liked to wag her tail, play ball, and run around.  After filling out the adoption paperwork, they said we could take her home the next day, Sunday.

We were so excited on Sunday morning as we got ready to drive back to PAWS and pick her up.  Overnight, they gave her a haircut, a bath, and made her look very pretty.  Don picked her up a UW purple and gold collar, so we have another 'dawg' in the family!

She enjoyed the ride home, and we had fun playing with her in the afternoon.  She slept through the night, and two days later, she is doing great, had a good checkup with Dr. B, our veterinarian in Snohomish, and she has settled in nicely.  So have we!  Here she is.
