Spencer

Spencer (click for full pic)

This is Spencer. She came to live with us about five years ago from the SPCA in Saskatoon (Canada). She'd been there well over four weeks when I wandered in looking for a dog to join our family. The resident Vet said, "You should take a look at this dog if you want a good-natured, friendly, loving pet who won't bother your cats. In all my years as a Vet, I've never seen a better temperament in a dog." I thought, "Yeah, right... good sell job." But when I met Spencer, and she put her head on my shoulder, I was instantly in love. For the first two weeks she didn't make a dog noise. Then, one day when I said "Would you like to go for a walk?" she replied with an enthusiastic howl. Our lives will never be the same. She teaches us every day what it means to be loved.
