Our Dog Aspen


As of July 12th we have a new member to our family. As it turned out we went to the shelter to look at a beagle they had, but it wouldn't be available for adoption until the following Tuesday. As we were leaving one of the volunteers was walking a dog outside preparing to take it to SLC for a pet adoption day. Sammie wanted to take her for a walk and of course everyone else wanted a turn too. This dog was so good with the kids, even though Jordan was very afraid of her and waited in the car for us. It was decided that Aspen was going to come home with us. Since then Jordan is no longer afraid of her and we now have a 5 year old heeler/collie mix dog that I have never regretted having in our home. The only complain I have is that she sheds, but the good thing about her is that the kids love her, especially Samantha. She's house broken, she only barks when she hears something outside that concerns her, she loves to play fetch, and she is gentle with my baby. So welcome home Aspen.
