Shadow's a lovable eight year old puppy-at-heart. She was rescued in a litter of ten, then chosen with another of the pups to live with a foster mom and that's where we met her. And fell in love right away. As a young puppy she followed us around outside, inside, wherever we went, there she was. So she became our Shadow.

Her heritage is: 1/4 Border Collie 1/2 Blue Heeler plus Husky, Golden Retriever, Austrian White Shepard.

As it happened, we adopted Shadow when our old female dog Sandy was still alive. Sandy tolerated Shadow and even began to play with her. Here they are/were together.
