It was an extra-special day here on Stepping Rock. One year ago, Jim and I went downtown to the Humane Education Society of Chattanooga to help just one little dog and give her a home. It was such a difficult decision, but we settled on the most frightened little girl at the shelter. There were hundreds of dogs begging for a home and I would have given anything to have helped them all. Lindie (shelter name "Stephanie") was just about the only one who wouldn't come near us. She tucked herself as far away from us as she could get, stuffed into the corner of a small, smelly, concrete wired kennel, trembling.
Talk about a 180! This little girl is a real pistol! She spent her anniversary getting lots of extra treats (cheese, treats, cookies) and doing a stellar job making sure HER yard was completely free of all unwanted critters. Good job, Lindie! We're so glad you're a part of our family!
