what a beautiful girl she is!

That's quite a hill!!

Pepper always chooses the steepest way up so i think she likes the challange. Either that or she is being competitive and knows this is one way she can go faster then Victor can. THen she likes to run along the ridge. It makes me feel so good to watch her go. I wish i could get better photos but i don't have a telephoto i can use.

Mary chooses the most gentle grade down to her mud bath pool then she sits on her fanny and scoots down the leaves to the bottom.mary - Dog and Puppy Pictures for her beauty soak. Actually i think it does feel good on her joints. WE just love this place.

nice shots!!

She and Maggie May would make a good pair !!! Must be the Terror in them !

Pepper has changed since I first met her. She's definitely a happy camper now!

GRammy when we were at the off leash park sunday she teamed up with a littlet whippit mix, they were best buds on the beach. I hope we can get to the mod meet this year. I can't wait for you and BArb to meet the new confident happy girl she has become.

I'm hoping we can get together !!!

She looks SO different than she did when she first came to you

She's beautiful!

I was digging through photobucket the other night and came across those pics we took in the woods soon after you got her...WOW what a change!!!!

Yup Zoomer I am glad you saw it! I can't get over how much she has changed, no longer is she the blink blink blank look which is the only way i can think to describe it. SHe gave nothing away, it was as if she were in a shell and none of us were allowed to open it.

I think the second photo i posted tho it is not a good photo, you can still see the happiness in her eyes which is why i like it. LAst night we were on the sofa (Because VIctor still stinks) she was curled up under my arm next to my side with her head on my chest which is pretty much our normal sleep and i thought how did i ever make it without her. WAtching her open up and become confident has made this last year worth all the effort.

HEre is an early pepper for comparison if anyone wants to see the difference

Now she has such a spark and shines with vitality.
