Furry best friend?

     When Blondie was almost 2 years old, she marched right up to Santa and requested a "Yellow Yab" for Christmas. Santa thought on this a while and realized a "Yellow Yab" puppy with little people around didn't sound like the most fun idea. About a month after Christmas we found our perfect match through the DFW Lab Rescue. I began a few months previous to this, volunteering with them, doing home visits and other jobs. I heard the story about 50 labs who had been living in cages without roofs, very little food and a cesspool for drinking water. The lab rescue was called in to rescue them. Our McLaren "Mac" was one of those "Hard Knox Labs" from Knox City.
     Our daughter immediately loved her, but at first Mac wasn't so sure about her. She hadn't had much contact with people and most likely never a child - who knew she would be the best furry friend my kids could ever have. The Dude, ever so lovingly calls her, his "Macky" - he has a dog crush on her and she with him. The Dude is truly a huge fan of all the blonde ladies in his life. They love to hear her rescue story and how she was once afraid of everything - her trials and tribulations have inspired my children to be future pet rescuers. My daughter, now whenever we talk about any rescue pet she asks "What's his/her story?" I love their love for animals.
