DOG OF THE MONTH - APRIL - 2009 

Name: Shadow
Breed: Retriever/Husky
Age: 4 1/2
Sex: Female
Pedigree: Unkown
Color: Black/silver/white
Favorite Toy: Any stuffed animal from my toy chest although those w/internal squeakies are generally short-lived
Pet Peeve: Swimmer's tail (from hours of fetching Dad's tennis ball off the dock at Ratigan Lake)
Owners: Jody (mom's a former professional ballerina who teaches at Ada Dance Academy) and Brad (dad is busy helping his customers with One Man and a Mower, his lawn service company) ps. I am "Daddy's Girl" through and through
Favorite past time: Chasing squirrels, geese, and rabbits (sometimes digging up moles)
Food of choice: Peanut butter and Dad's table scraps (a loose term for the nightly allotment of rather choice offerings off of Dad's plate)
Shadow is the perfect dog (for us). She is intelligent, well-behaved, playful, loyal, and incredibly lovable. She loves to run, swim, play with our cats, and have her belly rubbed. She also loves to ride anywhere with her papa. We are amazed by how lucky we are to have her as part of our family.
