Coming home is the best

Roxy greets me after work every day with a baroo, just like her brother, Iggy. This is major progress. Until May, she had never made a sound, except for that terrorized howl she gave when having to be boarded at the vet during her heartworm treatments. It is such a happy sound, and makes me know that Roxy really did belong in my family. I can't wait to walk through the door each evening to hear her welcome me to HER home.

Another great month

Roxy continues to blossom. She's playful (actually fetches a ball!) and so sweet. She craves the outdoors and long walks. What I've noticed lately is just how soft her fur is getting. When she first arrived, her fur was so spiky that we could hardly touch her. I think over time it's just going to get softer. She and Iggy are creating a very close bond--and my pack is happy!
