CRAZY WEATHER

I took Graelee down to McDonald Beach yesterday and I'm sure lots of people in the Lower Mainland experienced the same crazy weather than came around in the matter of minutes.  We arrived at the river with sunshine and very calm river waters and all of a sudden a cloud passed over, bringing hail. Then there was the thunder and lightening and major winds blowing leaves off the trees all over the white caps on the water.  And....to top this off, we finished with a full rainbow.  Wow!

Graelee has met a few people this past week.  There have been a couple of home visits completed and there are still some great applicants that haven't even met Graelee yet.  I'd be surprised if she isn't adopted soon.  Sometimes we have the fortunate problem of needing to clone one dog because its hard to choose.   We did meet one very nice lady and her dog at Queen Elizabeth Park and Graelee was curious about a pumpkin that was left behind.  She was undaunted by the carving and just preferred to see it as potential food.  I'm sure if I'd had Sail still she would have barked at it.

Last weeked we went to Deas Island Park with my friend Kathy and her two dogs - Booker and Rosie.  Rosie is a TG dog previously known as Buttercup - my shortest foster before Matt and Kathy adopted her.  Graelee had fun running with Booker and following Rosie through the bushes.  Rosie is usually busy on the hunt for squirrels but Booker shares Graelee's love of soft sand to run in.

Such a busy little girl...she had to be held by the collar to be still enough for a picture

The other day I put Graelee's favorite squeak toy aside and she discovered the squeaky beer bottle instead....

She doesn't play-growl with any other toy this way

so I'm not sure what's so special about this one.
