Happy National Dog Day! To celebrate, we rescued a collie mix puppy we've named Sadie. She's about 2 or 3 months old, super sweet, and suuuuuper high energy. I forgot what it's like to have a puppy, whew! We rescued her from the local animal shelter who found her as a stray about a week ago. Their puppy policy was to keep the puppy crated, in arms or on a blanket on a table to interact with potential adopters, so she was crazy high-strung when I brought the kids with me to the shelter (at the last minute of the day!) to try to adopt her. The volunteer who showed her to us said that she had shown Sadie (that called her Zaya) six other times that day and everyone had declined because she was so rambunctious. Psh. We OWN rambunctious at our house, haha. So we took her home and she'll be ready for adoption around October 1st. She's adorable so I'm sure she won't last long.
She tuckered herself out after a lot of running around the yard
Meeting Uncle Ace - He's putting her in "Time Out" for playing too rough with Andi
These two play soooo rough
Connor and Clara strolling about the yard
Andi is terrified of Sadie and doesn't know what to do around her - which gives Sadie free reign to terrorize her as much as she wants, haha
Our sweet boy... 10 years old and still in the foster system... or is he??
Connor, Clara and Bryce like to rock the airplane teetertotter
Oh to have the energy of children
Andi and Sadie ambled over to check out Kamryn playing in the sand pit, while Derek tinkers with some toys in the fort above
Kamryn and Connor flying on the wings of imagination
Uh-oh, Sadie got put in time out again. He barks at her if she tries to get up, haha!
A boy and his dog. What a fitting way to see out National Dog Day!
