On the anniversary of the gotcha day of our two angels (Jack and Bonnie) J, Max (our third angel) and I drove to GRA four years ago to meet Tarra and see if she was meant to join our family. As she walked out of the kennel, ears up, eyes huge as saucers at nine and a half years young, before she even made it to us, J looked at me and said "she's coming home with us". She won our hearts in less than a heartbeat. J hadn't been sure about adopting an older broodie but I knew it was something I wanted to do. Who needed a home more than this nine and a half year old mom who had her last litter just months previously?!? Time for retirement and her forever couch. So she jumped in our car that day four years ago and we've been sharing our lives with her ever since. I'd tell you we were going to spoil this girl today but really not sure if we could add any more treats or love to her days. We know how lucky we are to have her around at the age of 13 1/2 and spend each day letting her know how loved and cherished she is. Tarra is one of a kind. I love how the GRA volunteers that helped unload her from the hauler back in 2011 still remember her fondly. We kinds think she's unforgettable too. Here's Tarra, Ms. t, Sweet T, T-bone (LOTS more pics on the GRA Facebook page)

4 years! You are one lucky hound, or is it J and Barb who are the lucky ones.
Enjoy your gotcha day.
