Fun Fact about the Founder & Family

Each time Mom’s discharge from a hospital is being planned they ask her who she has at home. She is always very pleased to share about her 4 grandchildren, son-in-law, daughter, and husband (I think in that order), but the one bonus that brings an extra smile to her face is our golden doodle. She loves our dog and our dog loves all of us so well.

She’s the one who welcomes Mom home by parking herself right beside her or behind her wheelchair. She is loyal and loves with all of her heart and sloppy kisses. She thinks everyone is here to see her and jumps up on them to greet them. We put her out back when home health and new friends arrive until they get to know each other.

She’s the one everyone loves to sit with and the one everyone loves to complain about when she makes a mess. We rarely feel lonely in such a full house, but with her around it’s impossible to find yourself completely alone unless she’s on the other side of a door from you.

She loves to play and go for walks and put herself right next to one of her favorite humans and create a snuggle sandwich. She got a clean bill of health recently and for that we are thankful. Trips to the vet with her are lively as can be and nearly always threaten to knock me over. This last time I was encouraged to purchase some kind of harness because the leash is not really doing the trick.

Seeing her throw herself into each exciting moment with all four paws is really something to experience as is getting to pet her soft hair that does not shed. A perfect match this our high demand, high maintenance era.
