One Year Ago...

We went to visit Hershey at the dog shelter - it has been a long year - but in a very good way! We have loved every moment with Hershey (not so much the times where she's barked and freaked out at strangers, but, she couldn't help that)!

We have also noticed that Hersh has mellowed out - quite a bit in fact. She is much better with strangers and loud sounds, and even better, she doesn't seem to react as badly to people walking in the back alley when she's in the yard. She's content just walking around and lying down outside. She calmer in the house too - not incessantly playing with toys or tearing around the place.

We will be celebrating her 2nd birthday on the day that we brought her home (June 10th). Although we have diverging opinions on how to celebrate, we will definitely be getting her a special dinner.

In other news - Hershey was at the kennel for 5 days two weeks ago while Chris and I were on a trip. She wasn't thrilled at first to be there, but apparently was very good (and quiet!) during her stay. We are so happy that things are going well for her!
