    Oh how we love little Clove! we bantered around a few names then settled on Trixie. The first few days were adjustment as expected. She potties outside right away! much to our surprise. Today the real girl came out! she ran around the yard played with our 2 yr old Lab mix, is a huge delight! She is crated at night and I was wondering why when I get up her bedding is damp, not pee, So today I had to laugh that she went to her open pen where water is kept in a raised holder and she was swimming with front paws in her water dish! We love her so much thank you her our complete family. Rich, Debra, Casey and Trixie.
