Please excuse my lack of blogging in the last week. My computer is apparently loaded with viruses (my AVG ran out and wasn't renewed...oops!) and I should have it back within the week. So in the meantime, on the hubby's computer I am!
Last Sunday a dear friend of mine, Marie, sent me a link for a 7 y.o. Great Pyrenees at the Bangor Humane Society. We decided that for our lunch break the next day we would go take a look.
Oh boy. I knew when I was pulling into the parking lot that there was little to no chance we'd be leaving without her. I just had that gut feeling. It just felt right. The newest Picard.
Penny Picard.
She was an absolute doll. Naturally she looked a little scared and timid, but just wanted to lean into me through the kennel and have me pet her soft, fluffy white fur.
She and her sister (Penny is 7 and her sister is about 2 3/4) were returned to the kennel when Penny was 6 1/2. The owners were negligent and kept them in a barn, with no attention and certainly no love.
Come to find out, Indy and Penny's sister are SISTERS from the same litter! Which, in a sense, makes Indy and Penny sisters from another litter (hehe..I like to say that snapping my fingers)! What are the odds!? Not that it's a typical breed in Maine, but still, it just makes the whole situation feel like it was meant to be. And I honestly feel that even though she's 7, it's NEVER too late to have a loving home and to be showered with attention. I mean, we do have 6 years of cuddles to make up for...so she's definitely in the right place!
