Update on Cher

A whole bunch of photos and a lovely letter from the owner of Cher, now Cheryl:

I adopted Cher (now Cheryl) a couple months back from TAS. She is doing so well!

There have been a couple of tough moments of adapting to a new adult dog in the house. We will still sometimes come home to a surprise mess of packaging and crumbs that she has left on her pillow, after reaching new heights in the kitchen. However, the tough moments are always overpowered by the amazement we feel at how GOOD Cheryl is. All she wants is to be around people, to lie on your feet, to have a nice face scratch after a walk, or to sit with her head on the coffee table while everyone plays a board game.

I wish I could think of something more profound to express my love for this gal. I’m at a loss, though. We have a simple life. A couple of walks a day. Quiet time in the living room. A very excited reunion when Bram or I come home from work. If she wants to play, she will pull her toys out of basket one by one and place them on our laps until they have all had a turn. When she’s done playing, she will lie next to us on the couch, or even crawl right into our laps.

Cheryl is a perfect match for our house. I am so thankful that we saw her when we did.

Thanks for everything you’re doing for the dogs at TAS.
