Mine and Ellie's 1 year anniversary!

Ellie · 04-23-2010, 12:56 PM

One year ago, my little bundle of love came into my life.

I had been searching Petfinder on a daily basis, desperate to get a canine companion. Then on April 22, I saw her listing and knew that we were meant for each other. I begged my boss to let me leave work early and hurried off to the shelter to meet my future dog.

I instantly fell in love. They let me walk Ellie around outside and she was absolutely perfect. I signed the adoption papers that day!

Unfortunately, they had found her as a stray so they needed to send her to the vet to have her spayed and vaccinated. That meant I had to wait two WHOLE days to bring her home.

So 2 restless days later, I finally got to bring Ellie home. (Turned out she had already been spayed so I didn't need to worry about recovery time)

I brought her home on April 24, but adopted on April 22 which is why I'm celebrating today

Happy Gotcha Day!

We don't celebrate Phoenix's b-day b/c we don't know exactly when it is so we celebrate his Gotcha Day instead!

Here's to the two of you spending many more glorious years together!

Happy anniversary to you and Ellie! Very pretty pup you have. She looks much like my Chloe (at least in the pix). Here's hoping for many more happy years together for you two.
