Lacey Lou

Back in July of 2010, we adopted little Lacey into our family. She was 11 yrs old at the time, and full of personality! She was sad to see her foster mom go that afternoon, but by the next day she was making herself at home! She has become the head cheerleader of our 6 furbabies. She supervises them all and keeps them in line! She loves all people and greets them all at the top of the stairs. We could tell when we first got her that she was given attention, but probably wasn't hugged or cuddled during her younger years. Over time she has come to like being held and cuddled and has become quite the daddy's girl. She has become very attached to him, but still is very friendly with anyone she meets. She is missing many teeth, so her adorable little tongue hangs out most of the time-so sweet! She is very good about letting mommy play dress-up with sundresses, Halloween and Christmas outfits. She just sits there with that look on her face like, "really mommy, again?" She
loves naps in her little bed but isn't shy about asking for treats and dancing around for them. She has some old disc issues with her back now and again, but with some temporary meds she's fine after a few days. I believe when she came to SDR she was very ill, and it sounded like her previous owners didn't want to deal with an older, sick dog, but they were definitely the losers in this case. Lacey is a treasure to us and we will love and care for her in her golden years the way we want to be taken care of later on in ours. Lacey is funny, sweet and spunky and she has been a blessing to our family. Three of our six dogs are seniors, and we feel very lucky to spend their final years with them. Please, please don't let older ages of animals deter you from adopting. They are a true blessing and just want to be loved like everyone else.
