Birthday Wishes Do Come True

A month ago, Suzanna came home and said that for her birthday she really wanted a dog. She would take care of it and everything and she didn't care what kind it was or anything but the top of her list for her birthday was a dog. My wife and I talked about it and we talked to Suzanna about it and said it probably was not going to happen and if it did it would probably be a Christmas present to since that was a big request. She didn't care.

Every once in a while she'd bring it up but made sure we knew she understood if we couldn't do it. Well, today, her wish came true. While Tina was out with our youngest, Aria, running errands, Tina came across an adoption event and found the cutest dog named Sally that she thought would get along great with our other dog, Charlie, and that Suzanna would just love.

Here is Suzanna's birthday wish. Sally is a little scared right now and didn't quite know what to do and Charlie was quite surprised also but we hope they'll soon be best friends.

She's a 2 year old Dachshund, housebroken (we were told), and she loves to sit on your lap. Yes, we know the dog collar is ugly and it has already been replaced and she's been given a name tag with our info in case she gets out.

The kids love her and Charlie (our half Dachshund/half German Shepherd mix) dog is getting used to her. I'm sure she'll love her new home when she gets a little more comfortable with her new surroundings.
