I don’t know if my boys would appreciate being compared to a
food item, but I have said it before, and I will say it again…Great Pyrs are
like potato chips..you can’t have just one..and in my case, two..because now I
have a third. I know, I know..you are
wondering “What is this chick thinking”..Well clearly, I’m not, but that’s ok!
In a recent post, I was going to get a 10 week old girl from Great Pyrenees Rescue of Atlanta, but she sadly had to be put to sleep. I thought it would be a while before another
young girl came along but I was wrong..This sweet thing is 4 months and basically
spent the beginning of her life in a screened in porch. The people who bought her didn’t have a
fenced in yard so there she sat on the porch to eat, sleep, play and do her
business. Then the owners said that a 40 pound dog was too big for their seven
year old daughter to walk…Gee, you think??
Sometimes I wonder what people are truly thinking when they get dogs…So
anyway, before I go on a tyrant about that, let me get back on tract. GPRA was
contacted about her and of course, took her in. She was vetted and then stayed
at a wonderful volunteers house for a couple of days who began working on housetraining
her and giving her lots of love before coming to me.
Saturday rolled around and I was so excited to go get her…it
was an hour and a half there and it seemed like it took forever to get there!
Once I saw her sweet little face, my heart just melted. She slept almost the whole way home and was
very well behaved. Once home and confronted by two big boys, she really didn’t
know what to think, and neither did they. She pranced around the yard and then when she
was comfortable enough, she started playing with the boys. She’s a fast little
mover and they love to chase! It’s funny
watching her try to play with them and boss them around..they just stand there
and put up with it. They are both so
gentle with her as if they know they’re big and she’s little (this is a first
for them). She got her first digging lesson from Hurley on Sunday and she has
quite the voice which I was shocked to hear. She's truly an adorable little lovebug and we are so happy to have her!
So without further ado..Meet Hallie…like Ally with an H…
What a cutie patootie!
ReplyDeleteSo glad she's settling in! Good luck on the house training!
