Hope turns 12!

[Poppy]

Hope turned 12 on Monday Oct 1st! She got a new bed today and my daughter was cuddling with her on it! She is not real photogenic anymore but she is doing very well for her age. She is still very active especially considering she is a walking miracle due to a severe injury to her hips and pelvis 6 years ago. The vets told us we had to do multiple reconstructive surgeries in order for her to be able to walk at all. However all we did was pray and wait and she healed up on her own. She was running only 6 weeks after the injury. Now 6 years later she is still running and stalking little creatures out in the woods!

Awesome! This is why we never hesitate to take in an "older" dog and encourage others to do the same. She's still darned pretty too!
