We had a couple of trips we needed to take in August and September so we decided to adopt a dog when we got back from our travels. Enter our new dog, Kira.
On September 27 we went out to Southside SPCA in Meherrin, VA and picked up a beautiful beagle mix. Her name was Ellen but we named her Kira (Kira Nerys for those of you who are Star Trek fans.) She was estimated to be 3 years old and it was obvious that she had recently had a litter of puppies. She has been a challenge but, I believe, worth every moment of effort. She was afraid of her own shadow and very cautious with strangers. She and I developed a bond immediately but she was afraid of my husband. She was also afraid of confinement of any kind. Needless to say we have been busy trying to keep up with our regular schedule and also care for this beautiful but needy dog.
She has been with us for 5 months now and has greatly improved. She and I have really become good friends and she is doing better with her confinement issues. She is still afraid of my husband but is doing better in some small ways. I think it will take awhile but she is bound to eventually be a great companion to both of us.
