Exploring East Atlanta

Strelka's puppy side is finally coming out.  She loves playing with toys and getting attention.  She is not as docile as she once was, but she is a lot more eager to explore new places and meet people.  She is so incredibly loving and sweet.  I cannot resist those pleading eyes, and that happy tongue that hangs out of the side of her mouth when she is pleased. 

Today, we took a trip to the Park Pet Supply in East Atlanta.  The two women working there were really nice.  They were sweet with Strelka, and she loved them.  One of them said she had rescued and adopted out a girl that looked a lot like Strelka but larger.  She assured me that I would find this baby a home, and it felt so good to have the extra vote of confidence.  They handed her a bully stick that she could not resist.  In the end, we purchased the stick, a brand new Halloween toy, and some--try not to get too excited--poop bags!  We even earned some free treats as frequent shoppers.  The pet store has been kind enough to let us keep a flyer hanging up there.

Then we walked around East Atlanta, stopping at the cd store to listen to some Whitney Houston, before heading over to Joe's for an iced coffee.  They also let me hang her flyer up here.  We are lounging around on the patio together now, meeting new people from time to time.  She is loving her bully stick and is content to be in her favorite place--at my side.  It is amazing how bonded she becomes to people.  I have said it before, but I will say it again, someone is going to be so lucky to get this girl.  She will be smitten with them for life.  This is the kind of pup that thinks her owner can do not wrong and wants nothing more than to please them.  I am looking for someone who will feel the same way about her.

I couldn't get any pictures of Strelka in EAV because my camera, conveniently, ran out of batteries.  This is a picture of Strelka hanging out with one of her biggest fans and past foster caregivers, Jasmin Butler.
