Having lost our beloved Shelby in August of 2006, we were pining for another family dog when Stacy happened upon a nine-month-old Australian Shepherd [like Shelby, but a miniature Aussie - 65 lbs vs 45 lbs] who had been rescued from a shelter. As we drove the 40 minutes with the kids to meet our new addition, it took a lot of discussion to finally concur on an appropriate name.
Unfortunately, my favorite name, Tralfaz never gained any traction…<Sigh>
Spencer, our new family member, gets an end-of-fall bath. Oh, the indignity! Sean does his usual creative videography.
