23. Pretty girl! Thank you so much for adopting an adult...

as you said, so many people want puppies, which are undeniably cute, but there are so many wonderful adult dogs who need loving homes.

to you and Katie! Give her a kiss on her forehead for me, right between her eyes in that soft, velvety little space.

Have you seen her run yet? Wonder if she has whippet speed?
