Spicey now Maggie!

First we have changed her name to Maggie and after a short time she does recognize the change.

I took her to our vet and he agreed that she is most likely 5 years old. During his checkup of Maggie it became very obvious that she has been well cared for in the past. Her teeth are perfect and she is used to being handled and was very calm and  happy.

As she has become more ingrained in our family her personality has come out more and she is a joy to have with us. She has not had one accident in our home, has never even picked up anything that was not given to her, no shoes and so on. We had her for 5 days before we herd her bark one time at an unruly dog at the pet store.

We will begin obedience training at the end of February only because it is a prerequisite to therapy dog training. We will see how it goes but she seems to have the personality to touch many people.

Keep up the good work.
