Annie

My dad got a new dog today.  I guess her name is Annie.  She hails from Iowa.  My dad got her at the Sauk City Humane Society.  I guess poor Annie was brought from the Iowa floods.  She is a Black Lab mix, and from what my dad says she is really well trained.  She laid down in the car the whole way home, doesn’t bark, and likes to go for walks, but is really mellow.  I figured he would have a new dog by the end of the summer.  He keeps talking about getting a Boxer puppy.  I thank God he found Annie first.  She sounds more his speed.  I think a Boxer pup would have been way to hyper for my dad and Sue and they would have given it away.  I’m glad he got a new dog.  He has been really lost since Chloe passed away in March.  He keeps saying how lonely he is.  Now he has a companion to ride around with to do all of his old guy stuff, like go to the dump.  I don’t know why that is his favorite thing to do, but Annie, I hope you enjoy all of your future trips to the dump.
