Blanche!



 







Blanche is doing wonderfully. She is full grown I think and the size of your average labrador. I suspect she is mixed with a little bit of a herding breed like a german shepherd or border collie because of her coat and the way she stalks and tries to herd us sometimes! But she seems mostly lab. Her coat is a lot longer and softer than the average lab and she sheds a ton! She learned how to hunt grouse last fall and loves it. She swims and goes to the cabin a lot where she gets to enjoy being a cabin dog. We have woods by our house where we take her for walks nearly every day. She has two little boys (ages 1 and 4) who she is excellent with even though they do get knocked over once in a while and smothered with kisses. But one of the most amazing things about her is that she seems to have an ability to bring out the puppy in every dog. She loves to play and she seriously brought our ten year old beagle back to life! Beags had refused to play with other dogs for years and now she just loves her new best friend and I can't get them to stop playing, they drive me crazy sometimes but they are so loved. The beagle has a heart condition and we have been told that she could go at anytime. Blanche will be so sad when she does and when that day comes and we have to look for a new family member we would definitely love to adopt through you again. Thank you!
