~I just realized that I posted this in the wrong section! Would one of you lovely mods mind moving this to Pet Pics instead? Thankyou!
I'm a little lax on posting pictures lately and I realized that I need to post some pictures of my sweet new addition, Macy! I adopted her at the end of August from the Humane Society; She is around 2.5-3 years old and I think she's a mix of a few mixes. (I did recently get a Wisdom Panel Dog DNA test to see what shes mixed with since she's special needs...hopefully I'll figure out how to best help her based on her breed x's!). As of right now we think she's a mix of a Lab, Shepherd, Border Collie, and maybe Chow or Dobie...who knows! Whatever she is, she's a perfect match for us and couldn't be a more sweet, loving girl!
Macy's old name was "Chanel". She sat there at the Humane Society for over two years, completly unnoticed. Not only was she just "another black lab x" among a myrid of many others, she was also in a cage in the very back of the shelter and had a list of health issues about a mile long.I'm glad the staff there saw something special about her and didn't give up on here- I feel soo blessed that I was able to adpot her! She is a special needs girl and has some serious health issues going on with her little heart. Her life expectancy is around 1-2 years according to the vet, but I didn't care. Whether I'm blessed with her for one month or 10 years, this sweet girl is a blessing and has already added soo much to my life as well as my other dogs life! Not only was she a perfect match for me and my needs (I have heart issues too, so I had a soft spot for her), she is also an amazing companion for my other dog, Ranger. Macy had never been in a home before I adopted her, so she has really come a long way! At first everything was new- every beep of the microwave, every toilet flush, loading the dishwasher, wearing a harness/leash...everything was new! Macy has made leaps and bounds though and has done soo well! She is in class right now and learning her basic commands as welll as how to socialize with other dogs/people. Ranger has been a wonderful resource for her as well because his happy-go-lucky attitude has shown Macy what not to worry about.
She couldn't be a more loved little girl!!
Here are a few pictures of my Macy Grace!:

Look at those satellite dish ears! I love them! She moves them around everytime she's curious about a noise or something haha...
