Subject: 3 great iPhotos of our newest family member

Just wanted to give you an update and say thank you. We are loving
our new dog. We decided to call her "Goldie" as Samantha seemed to be
too many syllables.

She is really a good fit for our family. A sweet and smart dog. As you can tell from the pictures,
Sean is very proud and loves having her. We truly appreciate your time and effort.
Hope to meet you sometime at a GRR event!

Just wanted to let you know that everything is going SUPER with sweet, little Faith. She's already blending in nicely:-) Stitch is just beginning to give her some quiet time. He wants to rumble and tumble with her constantly. She's totally game for all his nonsense and is quite the sparring partner for him. I've dubbed her the "Artful Dodger." She leads Stitch on a merry chase around the yard zigging and zagging, darting and dodging, maneuvering easily at warp speed between bushes and close set trees leaving Stitch in the dust. They will run and chase for 10 minutes straight until the game wears them both out and they collapse in a heap at my feet. She is a darling! What fun for Stitch and all of us. Thanks for helping make this Christmas extra special.

Faith has not been finishing her feedings so in that way I know she's still settling in. I have to monitor or Stitch will gladly help her get full credit for cleaning her plate. Faith has become very playful with the cats (vs. when you brought her last Sunday and she didn't make a move). I use a sharp voice and she comes right back to me. Of course she only wants to play with her new feline family, but the cats have decided she'll have to earn their trust before they dally overly long in close proximity. Faith's crate is in our family room (where we visited last week) and she has put herself willingly into the crate on several occasions. Stitch lays right down beside her so I made a quilt bed for him next to the crate. She's slept peacefully through the night on Friday and Saturday ("Silent Night, Holy Night- All is calm, All is bright"), so I think everything is A-OK in that department.

Thanks for being part of the solution to the pet overpopulation problem so amazing dogs like sweet little Faith get a 2nd chance for happy endings to their life stories. You and volunteers like you are an inspiration to the rest of us. Keep on making a difference. "For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack." (Rudyard Kipling)
