Raisin

My husband and I adopted Raisin in November of 2012, right after Thanksgiving. Ryan found her by accident when looking through a link of adoptable dogs I sent him. What caught our eye was how similar she looked to our other adopted dog. Then when we found out she was at Homeward Pet, which is right near our house, we had to go meet her.

 

Honestly, at the shelter, she was a very sad little dog. She showed no personality and wouldn't let us touch her. Hearing that she had been a pregnant stray, adopted and then returned was too much to bear. Something about her just felt right, so after meeting our current dog, we took her home.

 

It has taken Raisin a little while to open open up, but she is flourishing. She loves her "brother" Torkie so much. They have the best time playing together. Her personality has totally blossomed, she is incredibly playful and loves toys and is a big talker. Sometimes we even think she speaks a little human.

 

We decided to keep the same name she came with because it was so silly and unique, just like her. We love her so much! (she is the black dog in the photos if there is any confusion)
