Not very happy with you, mom! Why did you have to wake me up!
I've changed a bit since adoption. My nose is actually pretty moist during the winter. I still have a lot of energy but take naps more often now that I'm getting older.
Lady 10-391
Profile
Lady is a 39# two year old sweetheart. For those of you looking for that perfect mix - look no more! We don't know exactly what's in her gene pool but we're sure having fun trying to guess. FD's betting on Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. FM's leaning towards Sheltie and/or a little Brittany or Springer Spaniel. But whatever the mix, she sure is a cutie!
Lady made the very long journey to our house from NW MN on Wednesday. Shortly after arrival she trotted by the resident cat without a problem, said a friendly hello to senior resident Bailey, and engaged young resident Josie (Lacey 09-048) in a game of tug. She ate a nice dinner in the laundry room, went outside to go potty (YAY!), and slept quietly in a crate in our bedroom. She's a dream foster!
Lady does pull on leash, so we'll be working on walking with a Gentle Leader. She knows how to sit, comes when called, and hasn't had any accidents in the house. She's a very smart and energetic girl so her furever family will have to keep her physically and mentally active.
Lady had her first vet visit and was given a clean bill of health. She does have a little redness on her nose but the vet said using a little hydrocortisone cream should help clear it up. Based on her pearly whites the vet guessed her age 1-1.5 years old. Lady is scheduled for her spay on Monday.
Lady spent the first two years of her life on a chain in a backyard. She was saved from the cold by a small rescue agency. While in their care Lady lived with dogs, cats, and small children and got along with everyone. Due to limited resources the agency asked RAGOM to step in and help this lovely little girl find her furever home.

Lady is a wonderful house guest! She's 100% housebroken, sleeps quietly through the night, gets along with everyone, and is so much fun to have around. She doesn't bark, doesn't resource guard food or toys, and doesn't jump on people. However, she does like to dive-bomb residents Josie and Bailey from tall snow banks! Lady also loves a good snuggle.
Lady has been fine with free roam when we're gone for a couple of hours. I think she'd do fine with free roam for a full work day but with 3 dogs and a cat we think it best that everyone have their own space so we've been crating her while we're at work.
As you can see from the pictures Lady and Josie have become fast friends. When they're finished playing they nap within a paws reach of each other. Lady has orders from her vet to take it easy for a week due to her spay surgery, that could be a challenge with the way the two of them like to wrestle. The good news is her surgery went great, and as long as she leaves her incision alone she doesn't need a cone - YAY!!! Her nose is looking much better too!
We're still having fun trying to guess her mix - the staff at the vet office guessed Border Collie or Aussie. The vet said she wouldn't rule anything out!
Everyone who meets Lady has the same reaction - what a cute sweet dog!!! She's about as perfect as they come!
