Molly

Two weeks ago, Rob and I took a trip (one of many in the last couple months) to one of the local rescue shelters to check out the dogs. We had met a dog at the pet expo the weekend before that we liked and thought it would be nice to see her again and whatever other dogs they had. Well, after a walk, we decided that we just had to bring home Molly. She's about one year old. She's a beagle mix. We're not sure what she's mixed with--my current theory is boston terrier (which would make her a boggle :)). We've been busy trying to get her everything that she needs (since she's our first dog) and changing our schedule a bit to accommodate her. She's still not fully house trained since she's spent the last 4 or 5 months at different shelters. But she knows how to sit and lie down and is picking up on many of our house rules pretty quickly. She is super friendly and loves people and other dogs. She was very well behaved on Beggars Night (that's trick-or-treater night in Des Moines). She wanted to see all of the kids, but she didn't bark, and as long as someone was sitting with her, she wouldn't rush the door. We feel very lucky to have found such a friendly dog from a shelter.
