Suki Update

Suki wasn't with us long, here's her brief story: "This dog was hit by a car, she has been treated and recovered from her injuries.  Her family left for Germany and she has been at a vet clinic for awhile, now in boarding".  Suki was adopted before making it to our website ~ great update!

Hello,
I just wanted to let you know how incredibly happy we our with our new family member. We just celebrated our 3 week anniversary of adopting our wonderful little girl, "Suki." She is perfect for us: intelligent, kind, caring, observant, energetic, playful, respectful, and of course not without her adorable imperfections (we're working on the "not jumping up like an excited jack rabbit when we come home" response currently, even though it is absolutely adorable!).
Every day I tell her she is "the best dog in the whole wide world" and I believe that with all my heart. She is enrolled in our first obedience class which we will begin next Wednesday (we're sooo excited!). Our plan is to complete several general obedience classes, to get our Canine Good Citizen certification thingy, and then to move onto agility which I'm certain our energetic little "spring-a-ling" will love.
We go walking/hiking daily and have already begun off-leash work over at Walnut Creek (under our close supervision, of course). We also make it a point to socialize her with other dogs, people, bicyclists, and horses (I'm a horse trainer) and she has taken everything in stride like a champ. She is excellent with other dogs, a little timid but curious about the "big dogs" that mommy rides (the horses :) ), and has been very good with people of all ages, shapes, and sizes (including children).

All in all, we love her and could not be happier. She is a work in progress but is coming along so well and so quickly and we couldn't be more proud of her. Thank you so much for your help in finding the perfect addition to our family and please let us know if we can do anything to further support your rescue. I cannot express how thankful we are for all you have done and for the opportunity to adopt "the best dog in the whole wide world."
A million thanks, (adopter)
