Hi Narelle,
Just wanted to send you an update on our little Pearl. It was last September 9th that we met up and took Pearl home. She's changed soooo much this past year!
When we first brought her home and let her out in our backyard, she sat in the corner of the deck, shaking. Now, she loves going outside. She darts out the back door and does her business with no trouble. We've also installed a doggie door that she can use when we're home. Sometimes she goes outside and just lays in the sun.
And when it's time for a walk - she goes crazy! The minute we grab her leash she starts jumping up and down. We go for daily walks after dinner every night. She's also become my shadow. Whatever room I'm in, she's in. She follows me up and down the stairs, room to room. She also LOVES pillows we found. She's not able to jump on the bed by herself, but when we lift her up and beelines for the pillows and makes herself right at home. I attached a picture of her taking a Saturday afternoon nap with me.
Also, Pearl joined us on our cross country trip to California for Christmas this year! She was a champ in the car and enjoyed all the attention she got when my family in California met her. We also bought her a jacket this winter since it was so cold out! I attached a picture of that too.
So needless to say, Pearl has become such a big part of our family and we love having her, and I think it's safe to say that she loves being here too.
Best -
Heather and Doug
