She has learned how to sit just a week ago and has surprised us even more when she chased a rabbit at a hiking trail last Sunday. She'll be celebrating her birthday soon and this contest just reminds us of how long we have been pampering our little rescue. ”

Tellie's Mom says: “My sweet Tellie is like many German Shepherds, a guard dog. Since my roommate moved out and I've let her have access to the front bedroom she spends literally 80% of her day guarding the front window. Many times she is so tired she just props her head on the window sill so she can still watch but get a little rest at the same time. Here are some shots of her in action, keeping our home safe!”
