Our adventure began December 27, 2013. Our dear friend sent out a plea for help over Facebook to help find homes for 2 dogs she rescued on the side of the road. From her post; ".we found her along the side of Spring Stuebner with 3 other little dogs. Two of them were hit by cars and killed." Of the 4 dogs traveling together, 2 were killed. As soon as I saw Brownie and saw the sad story, I wanted to help! I asked my husband (hereafter known as "hubs") if we could meet the dog and see if she would be a good fit for us. It was completely unplanned, and we had only just recently talked of seriously getting a dog. We had a few criteria; female, small, minimal (or no) shedding, good natured, and good with kids.
This is the original picture from my friend.
So off to their house we drove with the girls. Brownie was scared, timid, and very malnourished. After talking for a few minutes about it, we agreed to take her home. We were so excited! (at least, I was!) I knew it would take Brownie a little while to come around and let her personality shine.
This picture was taken as we left the Petco. We drove straight there from our friends house to get her some doggie basics. Like a bed! And some shampoo - that dog smelled awful.
