Irene at Home

Irene seems to like her new home! My son decided to rename her Slinky (after the dog in the movie Toy Story). She is a very smart dog! She's learning to sit and stay. We work on her tricks and obedience during a couple of training sessions each day. Most days we take a walk around the neighborhood. She has a lot of energy. My kids love to play with her in the backyard!

I took her to the vet today where she received a clean bill of health - yay! I wanted to say a special thank you to all of the people at Atlanta Pet Rescue and to the sponsors that paid her vet bills before we adopted her. She had a rough start in life, and I realize how lucky my family and I are to have her with us! I am very thankful to those kind souls who took her under their wings when she was so sick. To look at her today, you would never know that she was sick a day in her life. Please know that you have made a huge impact in Slinky's life and in ours.

As I was watching my son and daughter laugh and play with her yesterday, I was reminded of the pet that I had and loved as a child. I look forward to my kids forming a bond with Slinky that they will treasure for the rest of their lives.

Thank you!!!!
Claire
